Word of the day - per·i·pa·tet·ic
peripatetic - adj. Traveling from place to place, esp. working or based in various places for relatively short periods,
noun. A person who travels from place to place.
So, I like to think that I have a wide and varied vocabulary, but I’ve never considered myself verbose or whatever. Well, that’s all going to change. Now, I don’t want to be the person that lords my wordiness over people, but I do want to improve my facility for communication - particularly now that I’m going to be studying Communications in college. So, I’m going to...

One of the things I like about Chelsea Handler is...
With the exception of a select few, most of the comedians on Chelsea Lately are super lame and terrible and Handler treats them as such. I was watching the other night and her face while Godfrey and Jo Koy did impressions of Bill Cosby was priceless. I actually really like Chelsea Handler - I think she’s quick, self-effacing and doesn’t really take bullshit. However, the E! show is the...

It's decided.
I’m having a Mad Men marathon tonight. I’ve only seen this season’s premiere - college stress has prevented me from watching much TV lately - but looking at all the fabulous photos of the cast in Rolling Stone has motivated me to sit down, get my Snuggie on, work on my night cheese and watch some Mad Men.

Will Forte discusses leaving SNL | JoBlo →
“As we talk about his departure, the normally jovial and goofy star known for “SNL” skits like “Fart Face” and “The Falconer” suddenly gets serious. “Maybe it’s because I turned 40 and I started getting very…” Forte takes a long pause and sighs before adding, “…introspective.”
“I just wanted to be close to...

So last night I went to a local music festival. Important note - this music festival is held at the seaside and the sole purpose of most of its attendees is to get drunk beyond recognition and have a messy night. So, I went, not to get drunk, ‘cause that’s not my scene yo’, but to meet people or guys or whatever you want to call them.
We headed to a beachside bar, which was the...

megsokay replied to your post:I thought what he was trying to say was that the family and characters seemed too contrived.

megsokay asked: I haven't seen your blog--did you catch the new SNL writer hire? it's on thecomicscomic.com. Speaking of which, I was talking to the guy who runs it the other night and congratulated him on his scoop. Your site came up and then I proceeded to frighten him with my knowledge of the SNL casting rumors. It was a good time.

So this guy, although I totally agree with what he said about Glee, but I'm really scared that what he says about Modern Family might be true.
What do you think?

What about your love of random people from the Vampire Diaries? Randoms gonna random…
Yeah, I wasn’t aware that Nina Dobrev was so recognisable that she deserved a place in the opening number? I mean, The Vampire Diaries’ target audience were hardly watching the Emmys in their droves last night, right?
The Emmy opening was basically geared at me.
It combined my loves of Jimmy Fallon, Glee, 30 Rock, Tim Gunn and Bruce Springsteen.

I love lilac on her, but that dress is just not working for me. Maybe I’d like it better without all the fringe detail on the sleeves and the end of the dress? Elisabeth Moss was the best dressed Mad Woman last night (January Jones, you should look like a goddess 24/7 - why do you insist on wearing dresses that resemble art students’ 3D projects?)

Initial reaction to Emmy winners -
Woo, Modern Family!
AARON FREAKING PAUL BOIII! Seriously, I exclaimed with so much happiness upon reading that he won!
I’m not gonna lie, I’m a little dissapointed Stonestreet won over Burrell. I love Eric Stonestreet, but Ty Burrell had a full season of stellar work, as opposed to the few episodes that Stonestreet had. Oh well, always next year!
I’m very excited that Archie...
