Reality TV Celebrity Sighting


In case any parties are interested....my mom, my brother, and I ran into Chris Daughtry (he was wearing those glasses when we saw him)













and Bucky Covington (who now has his hair very much shorter)
at East View on thursday. My mom just thought it was a guy that looked like Chris, but I saw Bucky with him so knew it was really him.

I stalked them quietly for awhile then when they turned around to switch walking directions, I sprung my conversation on them.

"HEY....hi" (to get their attention)

(more quietly) "You guys are from American Idol...right?"

Chris looks around to make sure I didn't say it too loud "yeah". Then he shakes my hand.

I feel stupid for bothering them and dont' want to act like a teenage girl so I just flippantly say "oh well I was just wondering because my mom didn't believe me, that's all."

Then the question I was actually wondering "Why are you guys in Rochester?"

Chris answers again (Bucky is just way too quiet) "we're on tour right now"

I try to think of a closing line because people are starting to look around at us and I don't want to be the cause of a mad rush of teen girls so I say "well have a good time!" and walk away.

In case people think I'm ridiculous, Chris was the favorite to win American Idol this year, and the show was insanely popular. So....yeah...pretty cool.

So I'm thinking about changing my blog template, since Joe changed his and it looks totally awesome. I doubt I could get mine to look that good but I could always try. I know my changing colors scheme is all psychedelic and whatnot, but change is inevitable. I wish I could do comments...any computer savvy people out there wanting to help me with a comments system are welcome to try (that means you Mike L. and Doug) Oh but yeah my whole reason for typing this paragraph is to say that in case my entire template becomes messed up, you'll know that it's because I tried to change it instead of your computer being wacked out. What else is going on in my life....when I'm not working overnights such as this lovely saturday night/morning, I'm sitting in my apartment watching tv or walking around the block. There's not much to do when all your best friends are in different states (acchem Angie/Sue) or think you're psycho for wanting to hang out with them (accch...

The Office Showdown Debate

Well....it's not so much of a debate since I have a definite preference, but whatever. So I just finished watched all of the British version of "The Office." It was very funny, and similar to the American version only in the very first episode. All episodes thereafter are completely different. In both there are the weird, trying to be funny but aren't really funny bosses who keep fucking up and think everyone loves them, and the Jim and Pam/Tim and Dawn characters are similar as well. But the things they do on the shows, the entire plotline, their personalities, are much different. That being said, here's a bit more.... What I like about the British Office: --they can talk about sex freely, because it isn't our run-by-religion society --it came first and is therefore automatically cool for thinking up the concept --they say funny words and use funny accents What I don't like about the British Office: --Ricky Gervais' character, David Brent, is almo...
