I'm always amused when I'm in the bathroom at work and I hear someone pull out one of the sanitary toilet guards (paper seats). I mean, we work in a law firm, not a strip club! Also, we don't share the bathroom with anyone outside of our firm either, except on random occasions.

What do these people do if they have to (god forbid) go to the bathroom in PUBLIC!? Not every public bathroom is kind enough to keep paper seats in stock, am I right?

What can I say? It struck me funny...

I'm not a huge fan of the magazine, but I'm pretty sure I might have to go out and buy the new issue of Rolling Stone.... and find a way to get a job on the set of True Blood, while I'm at it. Speaking of which, I'm FINALLY all caught up! I don't have HBO so it's a struggle to keep up to date, but there are some sites that I've found online that help. The buffering sure can be a pain in the ass though! I usually go to my friend Sue's to watch, but she just HAD to have a baby yesterday, so I'll cut her some slack. Welcome to the world Julia Caterina Cusato, or as I'll continue to call her... Julia Gulia...

I follow "BigBrotherLeak" on twitter, which is kind of a big mistake.. Granted, I get spoilers when the HOH competition go over the alotted TV time limit, but then I also know what's going on in the house in real time. It's not usually a big deal, but since Sunday night's episode came on much later than usual thanks to golf and 60 Minutes, my DVR missed it. I tried to catch up with the leak, but when I looked at a recap online, I realized I went WAY beyond what had happened on that episode. This made me realize, I'm not sure how much I like my action to be spoiled! I might have to unfollow for my own good, cause I'm way too nosy to NOT look at the feed.

Lauren Froderman beat out my boys, Kent and Robert, to win So You Think You Can Dance. I finally watched the finale last night and I have to say, she deserved it, as would any of them have if they had won! Lauren's "My Chick Bad" hip hop routine solidified her as a front runner for sure, as she proved last night. NappyTabs and Travis Wall were surely the choreography All-stars of the show, but I'm hoping that for next season, we can get more Sonya and Mia. Mia cracks me up behind the judge's table, but her choreography is kinda the shit.. And oh yeah.. give me some more Wade.. I miss Wade, even if his wife has to come with him!!

Would someone please explain to me how this woman has "options?" If Bravo is dumb enough to give her a show, I can guarantee it won't reach "Bethenny Getting Married" heights... I mean.. hell.. even I wouldn't watch it! Don't do it Bravo.. DON'T DO IT...

I'm almost ready to buy my first book on my Kindle! I've been waiting until I finish the last book I've been reading, so I don't get distracted. I'm still weighing my options.. I've thought about Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang or another hardcover book, cause I almost always wait for the paperbook, for the sake of space and simplicity. But since I've just found four I want to read in under a minute, I'm thinking this'll happen. Oh lord.. this could get expensive...

Talk about birth control!

So, this little gem is from my daily "fact or crap" calendar:

The genitals of the drone honey bee explode and snap off inside the queen bee during mating."

Anyone? Bueller?

Here's your answer: It is a FACT! The snapped-off penis acts as a genital plug to prevent other drones from fertilizing the queen.

I'm thinking that if I were a male drone honey bee, that's a chance I might not want to take... I wouldn't want anything that explodes or snaps off to be anywhere near my "wobbly bits," know what I'm saying?

Call the O's Helen Keller, cause I'm pretty sure Buck Showalter is a miracle worker! People were skeptical about him coming in midway through the season, but I don't think anyone would disagree with that decision at this point. We may not be able to make up any ground in the AL East, but we sure can try to spoil it for all the others ;)

I know I've said that other food items are the best inventions ever, but this MIGHT take the cake...

The final three on SYTYCD are Kent, Lauren and Robert. While I've been on Team Kent from the get-go, for once I'm ok with either of the three winning! Any of them would deserve it, although I give Lauren and Kent an extra phone call cause they had the good fortune of dancing to "Hip To Be Square" by Huey Lewis and the News. Granted, it didn't seem difficult enough for the finale, and the judges agreed, but that's not really THEIR fault (or Huey's for that matter).

If you haven't seen Inception, RUN, don't walk to the theater to check it out. It was completely mind-bending and insane and reminded me again of why I think Christopher Nolan and his work rock on so many levels..

Big Brother is back, and this week should be the end of the most annoying, pathetic showmance I think the show has ever seen - Brendon and Rachel. She spent the whole episode tonight bawling for being on the block and not winning the POV, then having to "console" whiny Brendon for the same thing.. God, I can't wait until either of them are gone.. preferably her, cause if I have to hear her scream about "her man" in the diary room one more time I might rip my hair out. Believe me honey, after this show, he's all yours, cause no other woman is gonna want a piece of that!

I'm only down two episodes of True Blood at this point, thanks to the internet.. It's been a long, hard road, but I've finally found a site or two that will allow me to not miss the shows by much, even though my sister won't let me have HBO :(. Entourage is a different story and is my next concentration. See!? You wonder why I never update this blog anymore.. work is crazy busy and I play catch up on my downtime!!!

And another reason I have no time.... I got a Kindle for my birthday!!!! I have yet to download a book cause I'm still reading a paperback at the moment and I know that if I download something, I'll never finish it. I'm sure I'll still end up buying books cause I do like having them, but it'll be nice to have any book I want at my fingertips at a moment's notice. I need to do more research but I can't WAIT to use it!!!!
