okay, did a little research. I don't really love Win Butler or Jason Segel. In fact, they both make me go
This post wins the thread. Did you know it was a contest? Well, it is, and this post won it. I don't know who Jason Segel is but I don't care. Wait, I do care. Going to IMDB, brb.
LOL! (and I don't know who that is either)
VP, I'm doing fine, nothing new right now, counting down the days to the shows. Zooey and I are caravaning to Oakland in, what, 26 days?
oh and I recently got a treadmill which is making me really happy since I walk almost every day now.
Jealous, I want a treadmill so much! Walking alone is just...boring. But I've convinced myself that if only I had a treadmill, I'd walk 87 hours per day.
You would! !! I've found I walk way more, and it goes by so fast I feel like I could just keep going and going if I wanted to. When I walked around the neighborhood I never wanted to get too far away and when I returned home it turned out I hadn't even been gone that long. This one has an ipod port (and speakers) which is cool so I just made a remix playlist tonight to coincide with my workout. I just took some guesses this time but I'm sure I'll fine tune it, and add more later too. I can do my walk on an incline to burn more calories, and I never knew how fast or how far I was going either, so that makes me Plus, I'm HOME, so it's just so convenient. I'm way too excited about it.
Omg. Again, jealous! A few years ago, Sarah and I used to power walk every evening, and you're right, it seemed like we'd been walking forever, but when we got back, it had only been like 25 minutes. And with me and my back, there's always a genuine fear of "what if I walk too far and then my back goes, and I can't get home??"
Have you and your girls ever watched Freaks and Geeks? Knowing how you're all pop-culture attuned, I wouldn't be surprised, but if you haven't, you all need to watch it NOW. Trust me. It's amazing. All the cult status buzz you hear about it? All true and deserved. It's up in my top 5 favourite shows now, and I know our tastes are very similar.

The show's in 24 days (and 27 minutes according to my dashboard countdown calendar) so we'll be caravanning in 23 days.
I ADORED Freaks and Geeks, and must re-watch all of them (there was only 1 season, right?) this summer.
And be careful of those treadmill thingys. I started walking 3 years ago and now look at me. (although today I f*cking bombed my time trial so I'm not feeling like much of a fitness stud, at the moment)
I totally relate on the walking thing! I've thought the same thing about my back! I'm so happy with this. It was an investment, but one that's been totally worth it to me already. And the girls love it too.
We have never watched Freaks and Geeks, I don't know why. Although, it's entirely possible they have, and I just forgot or didnt realize it or something. They watch way more than I do, and Camille watches way more than Chelsea. She's always watching shows online and has so many going at once I lose track of what shows they're watching. I'll have to ask them, but I dont recall them ever mentioning it. Wow, so now I totally want to look into it!
I would also like to re-watch My So Called Life, but I'm afraid that if it's not 1991 and I'm not 18, I won't love it the way I once did.
Dazzled, earlier you asked about me and Chicago? I'm afraid not, that was the first show of mine to go. As of now, I'm only going to the Toronto show - I only have two and a half vacation days till July 12 and I booked off two of them the other day for the TO show.
Also, Win Butler sorta reminds me of Jason Segel (who around this house is known as Sarah's pretend boyfriend). But then a few months ago we watched the unedited version of Forgetting Sarah Marshall, which featured Jason Segel's wang, and so now when I look at Win Butler, I'm reminded of Jason Segel's wang.
My head - it's not always a pleasant place to be.
:streamofconsciousness:
Yay, another fan! And I'm sure you'll improve on your time, you're a running goddess.
You need to! Stop reading, do it now!! lol It's set in the early 80s. The age groups of the characters, I think we figured out that I'd be between the two groups (the freaks being a bit older than me, the geeks a bit younger). Sarah was really anxious to hear my take on it, the whole high school in that era experience, and the cultural references. And the music in the series!! Swoon. But really, it's done in a way that it's not dated at all, I think everyone can relate to it. Just some really excellent tv. It's done by Paul Feig, the guy who did Bridesmaids, which is opening this weekend, and I hear is really good, too, and Judd Apatow.
I've never seen that, but I've heard good things about it.
I know, right? Here's what I have to get thru first:
8 work days
1 performing arts night at school
2 races
1 dance recital
and approx 480 miles (to get to where I meet up with you)
then another
400 miles or so
1 dinner with my mom
I can do this!
Wow I had NO CLUE what it was even about! I'm excited to check it out now! I guess early 80's highschool is close enough to my age era *coughcough*
yes you can!!! I can't believe how fast it's coming up!
I know! Ever since last May (when the postponement happened) it's been this sort of nebulous idea rather than something that would actually happen.
But I also know that after Montreal I'm gonna have the SERIOUS SADZ.
Those of you who are avoiding spoilers might want to avoid the crack and fb, JUST SAYING!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sad I won't get to hang out with you in Montreal any more. Totally understand about the time off thing, though. That's definitely a bitch, especially when you're relatively new to a job.
I love this post. Yeah, Win's hair is rather weird. And Jason cracks me up. Have you ever seen the Confrontation video on YouTube where him and NPH are on a talk show and sing that song from Les Mis?! Oh my god it's the best thing ever. I have it saved in my favourites, so if you haven't seen it, I can easily find you the link. In fact, I may just have to go find it anyway, just for the lulz.
I've never watched Freaks & Geeks, but it's on my list of shows I need to watch at some point.

Saying you're happy is not spoiling. As long as you don't mention song titles (or put them in spoiler tags and indicate the spoiler is setlist related), it's all good for you to be excited. The fact that you guys are excited is making me excited for Seattle! It's so damn close!!
Who's counting? But seriously, it's a great show for all ages. Sarah's a HUGE fan now.
