day 03 → your favorite television program & Hush Puppy

This is not fair. Not to me, that is. To my shows.

Don't you think that if I enjoy Steve Carell kid-friendly movies to an extreme, I would also enjoy tv shows of the worst kind?

In no particular order:

SNL
Simpsons
Community
Elementary (I enjoy BBC Sherlock too, but this is a list of the shows I currently keep up with. And I treat each Sherlock remake separately.)
Castle (have not caught up, and feeling pretty lazy about it)
Phineas and Ferb
Agatha Christie's Poirot (David Suchet is the adorable-est)
康熙来了
Mock the Week
QI
**EDIT** PRIDE. OH MY GAWDNESS. HOW COULD I FORGET THIS PERFECT DORAMA. KIMURA TAKUYA. TAKEUCHI YOKO. QUEEN SONGS. JAPAN IN THE WINTER. SO SWEET AND SHORT AND BEAUTIFUL AND BRINGS OUT THE HOPEFUL ROMANTIC IN ANYONE.

What does this list say about me? Humor and mystery oriented? Watch too much television? Or do I just have superb taste?

What's a day without me becoming embarrassed/flustered/humiliated?

However, TODAY WAS TOTALLY MY DAY.

Got to a lecture later than I would have liked, so the first row was already occupied (I don't do this to express my fiery passion for physicsI, it's to get to my next lecture faster). So I took a seat a few rows up. Good fortune was on my side today as a quite toned, tall young man in the front row tried to take his sweatshirt. Not that he had any difficulty with that task. His shirt was just feeling a bit clingy and decided to travel with the sweatshirt.

And I openly gaped straight at his kind of beautiful back muscles.

Of course, I had to text someone about this. Some very sensible people who promptly asked for pictures.(No pictures because (a) I'm not that crepe-y (b) shutter sound would DEFINITELY give me away.)

I was fighting the impending rise of the corners of my mouth for the rest of day.

ALSO, FRIENDS --


THAT'S ALL I WANTED.

WHY DOESN'T ANYONE PLAY WITH ME?

I HOPE THAT YOU AT LEAST ENJOYED THE CHASE WHILE I WAS THERE.

HMMPH.

Hammurabi's Code

And other things. Hammurabi's for my etymology paper. The other things are for my friends. It's my genius  fault, really. I REALLY want to make a parallel between the hit show Friends  and my, well, friends. But we soon realized that the pool of characters wasn't enough to cover all of our friends. So, we started collecting more characters from TV show, cartoons, movies, books. Maybe what we need is our own original series. Too bad we don't have an objective third person to use as a narration device. I, as challenged by one of the said friends, will simply serve as the writer for now (let's ignore all of my emotional, delusional. and hormonal baggage that all of my imaginary audience is familiar with from previous posts). Let's start off with the easy ones... _____________________________________________________________________________ Coach Coach - Nick Kent if you're well-versed in the world of sports blogs - as I like to call him, has been a class...

So the conversation with my middle-aged, Chinese father went like so: "I remember the movies that impacted me the most when I first came to America" "Titanic" "No, Charlie " "Dad, what the hell is Charlie? I've never heard of it before?" a low-budget, 90s film perhaps? "nononono...You know the one with the 娃娃(doll) with the scar. Scary" "A doll? You mean Chuckie?" "Yeah. That's what I said. Scary doll, scared the shit out of me" "Really? Did you understand english then?" "哎呀(onomatopoeia of exasperation- aiyah! ) I didn't need to. So. Scary. At first, I watched by myself, but then I was too scared so I convinced your mother to watch it with me. She was pregnant with you at the time, I think. She thought the movie would influence your birth, but I was scared so there were no other options" "...So you risked your firstborn's birth to watch Chuckie?" "...Yes" ...

30 Day Drawing Challenge - Day 2: Favorite Animal

My darling Bonbon the Chihuahua. Who is more bark than bite. Who hates small children. Who is my favorite 跟屁虫. Who is a small dog in the land of giants. Who does not  shiver or have weird body proportions because she has more dignity than your average Chihuahua. Love of my life.
