Have you missed me? I've missed you. . .

Hello all! So much to talk about!

1) TV Show Reco: Southland. It's actually kinda good. There's a lot to follow (about 4 or so storylines per ep), but 2 of them are usually pretty compelling, which is a good enough hit rate for me. I also like to see Ben McKenzie playing a rich kid working on the wrong side of the tracks as opposed to the kid from the wrong side of the tracks living as a rich kid, which he played on The OC. He has mastered the slow seething "Don't mess with me!" turn and get up move. In all seriousness, he's a good actor. . .hopefully he'll do something that takes place somewhere other than SoCal that doesn't involve tracks for his next project.

2) When is there gonna be an OC movie? I miss it. Maybe I'll just put in my Season 1 DVDs.

3) Those of you who read the fall tv reviews may remember that I liked Priviliged. Well. . .they're rerunning it this summer. Jump on the bandwagon, the wood planks feel fine! It's a fun show. If you're a girl, there's fun girly romantic things. If you're a guy, there's lots of boob.

4) I'm on Twitter! Follow me! www.twitter.com/meauxdub. Related, I'm amazed at the people who find me who I don't know. Should I be creeped out? I'm deciding to go with it for now.

5) I'm in a show! I've finally graduated from iO, so we have a show for 8 weeks. You already missed the first one. . .jerk! Anyway, it's Sunday nights at 7 until mid-Juneish. iO Chicago. You can get tix at the door or at chicago.ioimprov.com

6) It rains every day in Chicago. Seriously. Every. F-ing. Day. At least I don't have to feel bad about taking long showers. Mother Nature pisses on me, I piss on it.*

*I don't actually pee in the shower. That's gross.

Egg Hunt Time Suck

I've met someone else, blog. It's the 2009 Egg Hunt on (fluff)friends on facebook. Yes, the nerdiest possible thing I could be doing. Basically, there's an application on Facebook where you adopt a fake pet (mine is a giraffe). Every Easter, they host an "egg hunt", where you visit the pages of other "(fluff)friends" and click on a button to see if they have an egg hidden on their page. Totally lame when I explain it, but totally addicting to participate in (I found 254 eggs. Don't judge me!).

Anyway, for those of you in the Chicago area, my iO class will be putting up a show for 8 weeks, starting on April 26 at 7pm. So, come on out and watch!

I'm also starting to Twitter. . .you can follow me at www.twitter.com/meauxdub. If I figure out that I know you, I'll follow you back. Whole Foods is following me! They probably just want an even bigger chunk of my paycheck.

Also, I have three goals. One new, two old:
1) Be on Celebrity Jeopardy
2) Be on Dancing with the Stars
3) Be on Amazing Race

Two of the three require me to be famous. hmm. Also, does anybody else find it ironic that Lil Kim danced to Jailhouse Rock tonight? Although, I do credit DWTS for allowing me to realize how cute she is.
