Screw the Perseids. I've always been an Orionids kind of gal. They were the first meteor shower I ever saw, and reporting on our school's outing to see them, the first story I ever wrote for my high school newspaper. The Orionids are in October and are the love dust from Halley's Comet (another Celestial Love of mine). A friend and I camped out on the beach last night in attempts to see the Pussies . . . I mean, the Perseids, what most consider one of the best-to-view meteor showers (approximately 60 meteors per hour). But after an hour of trying to simply catch a glimpse of the moon, hidden by clouds, we gave up and decided to go home and watch Quantum of Solace. Sidenote: My dream playlist would be all the songs written for the beginning credits of the Bond Films. Sooo sexy.
Another Way To Die, Jack White and Alicia Keys
Before we popped the movie in, while we were sucking on some freezepops, I finally got to see The Debarted. It was one of those episodes of the Simpsons I regret (believe me I use that word sparingly in my life, and almost NEVER use it for television/movies/books . . . etc.) having missed. Possible best quote from Principle Skinner, "I'm gonna be all over you . . . like a numerator over a denominator." Bad ass, Skinner, bad ass. Love, love, love the music choices for the episode as well, "Cruisin," D'Angelo version, and Drop Kick Murphy's "I'm Shipping up to Boston."

While watching more True Blood last week I had a funny conversation with Alison Wonderland about what working in retail would be like if vampires really were out of the coffin. First, our retail chain would be the first to stay open to accommodate the new clientele, and I would be the first in line to sign up for the Vamp Shift. Oh my God, the marketing would be enough to fuel my snark for decades.
Been watching a lot of Late Night shit. I'm on the fence about a lot of it.
Some girl said "Let's peace" to her mother the other day. I sort of wanted to punch her.
