ooo i'm tired tonight. it's 2:33am. i'm probably going to bed early.
i just wanted to share with you this review i read. it's a GOOD review of HBO's new show, 'Bored to Death!' which, i know i have been talking about recently. Jason Schwartzman's tv show. this guy reviewing it liked it. although, he says to stick it out past the pilot, because it gets way better. he didn't like the pilot. i liked it.
YOU DECIDE, when you click on that link and watch it for yourself. what else do you have to do for half an hour? ok, go get a snack. go get yourself a cold beverage (or a hot beverage, it doesn't really matter!), and then come back and get comfy and watch the episode. i really liked it. seriously.
the reviewer calls the show, "smart and pretentious." come on! it doesn't get much better.
BUT, i will disagree with him on something. he says that Jason's character, "might, in fact, be hatable, if he weren't played by Schwartzman, who makes the character a perfectly plausible extension of Max Fischer from "Rushmore."
I WILL agree with him that Jason Schwartzman makes everything more likable. i mean, DUH. if he were in every movie, wrote every song, and appeared on every tv show, there would be no such thing as a bad review.
I DON'T agree that his character on the show is a plausible extension of Max Fisher. at first when i read that i was like, "aww, max fisher, yeah!" and then i was like, "wait a minute, what is he saying?" and i read it again. and then i thought, "um, no, i don't think so." but, i thought about it.
i don't want to think about Max Fisher as a grown up. he should always remain a high school student.
AND IF Max were to grow up, he would turn into an award winning playwright. definitely not a struggling writer, pot and white wine addicted, fake detective.
Max should have an "up, up, up" career. not an "up, down, down" career. Wes saved that for The Royal Tenenbaums. but, we still love them.
anyways.
busy night. we have two beautiful baby girls here right now. 7 months and 17 months. oh, they are so sweet. they are sleeping right now. i know this because i have them monitored. good 'ol overnight monitoring!! everybody loves it. except Ruby Tuesday. i think it made her kind of nervous at first, when the babies were still awake.
but, it was busy here having babies to take care of. it was like, "wait a minute, i can't sit in the office, put on Coconut Records and blog all night?" oh no, i have to hold babies, move furniture so their toy bikes can get through, search for diapers and compliment them for being nice to their baby dolls.
i forgot how much fun it is to talk in a high pitched voice. it's true.
but man, i came home and i was tired. just watching babies is tiring. especially the 17 month old. actually, both of them. both of them were go, go, GO tonight.
but, remember how i said there would be 5 girls in the house tonight? yeah. there's only 4. not going to get into it. but, that was stressful too.
SO. what else did i do today? um, kill a disc of Veronica Mars. YEP. i'm sad to see Leo go. i really liked him. but VM and Logan?!?! hott. except, maybe not? the end of the episode i just watched she left him hanging.
anyways. great show. AND I LOVE HER DAD SO MUCH. have i talked about how much i love him? i just think he's the greatest. and i love their interactions. especially around what they will have for dinner. oh, it's so great.
so, i have to be up early saturday morning. like, 7:45am. driving somewhere in Vermont with the two babies and their mother. then coming home.
i have sunday night off. looking forward to that. going home for the night. seeing my dad on monday.
alright. it's 3am. i might go to bed now. the past two nights i've gone to bed when it was getting light out. i need to try and kick that habit. and i should be able to sleep because the girls are pretty quiet.
OMG, the 7 month old had the most gorgeous pajamas. it was like a light green onesie with little pink flowers. i loved it. i held her for a long time and told her that i loved it. oh, she's the sweetest.
ok. for realz. bed now.
oh! i made raspberry hot cocoa tonight. and i added vanilla soy milk. DELISH. i hadn't had raspberry cocoa in a while. it was so great.
and, when i was walking up the stairs to my apartment tonight, Ruby was crying at the door, like always, but this time she had actually brought some of her toys over and stuck them under the door. there was a twisty tie sticking out and a yellow thing off of an apple juice container. it was pretty funny. she loves playing so much!
ok! goodnight friends. hope you had a great friday! i'll talk to you later. any fun plans for the weekend?!
<3
I don't know if you've reached this episode yet, but I love when Keith gets a big paycheck, buys some steak, and announces to Veronica, "Tonight, we eat like the lower-middle class to which we aspire!"
