SYTYCD Outrage!

I couldn’t believe it! I am completely incensed. Bianca should have never gone home last night and Noelle should be the one crying in bed this morning.

Bianca showed so much promise in other dance styles, and there was nothing wrong with her performance last night except that the judges didn’t like it. They think they are protecting Noelle because she was out with an injury last week and didn’t want to eliminate her on her first week back–but did you see that performance?? Russell was on beat the whole time and Noelle was behind by a fraction of a second, and sloppy. She’s only going to keep pulling them down into the bottom 3 and that’s very very dangerous for our dear Russell. He has so much potential on this show but with a partner like her he’s never going to get the chance to acheive it. Ugh. I am so mad I could rant all day…

So here’s my predictions for next week’s bottom 3 and eliminations:

Channing and Victor (this new couple will struggle their first week)

Pauline and Peter (they’ll pick something out of their element)

Noelle and Russell  (they’ll both go home! omg, Russell don’t leave us yet!)

what exactly counts as ‘the undead’?

do you have to have died and then come back to life? or were you never actually dead, but passed from human immediately into a realm of ‘undead’?

anyway… Let’s take a look at how many scary creatures fit the bill:

Vampires – check.

Zombies – check.

Werewolves – no.

Ghosts – maybe? do you have to have a physical body to count as ‘undead’?

Frankenstein – yes. (also, does he count as a zombie or not? not trying to eat human flesh, but does have a previously-dead reanimated human body…)

Gremlins – i don’t think so.

Demons – ok, they live (or come from) Hell, where dead people are,  but i don’t think they themselves are actually dead, right?

Serial Killers – nope.

Witches (and Warlocks, gentlemen) – no.

Mummies - yes. awesome. (where all the mummy movies at lately?)

Freddy Kruger, PinHead, and other various scary movie guys – i have no idea, ya’ll who have seen those movies will have to pass judgement for me.

Final Count:

Undead - 5     Not Undead – 4     Unknown – at least 1

suspension :(

so, if anyone tried to visit my blog in the last couple of days, i was on suspension (apparently) and i’m not even sure how long it was like that because i haven’t had time to check the blog in a while.

and now i’m back, and hopefully have removed the offending link, although i’m not sure where that link was because it was not something that i deliberately put in and i kind of had to guesstimate which post had it and ditched that one.

anyway… i’m back. not that i have anything more interesting to say or anything…

The Principal from FOX’s Glee

and Abed the Asperger’s Guy from NBC’s Community (although the character he plays is Iranian, the actor/comedian Danny Pudi is actually of Indian descent–I looked it up)

Plum Delights

 I made two of the recipes in September’s issue of Everyday Food:  Plum Galette and Plum Cake, and unfortunately I was disappointed :(

The plums I used were yellow-sour inside, not red-sweet, and I’m sure they would have both come out much more delicious if I had had the red kind.

But don’t they look delicious? :)

cuteness…as promised

ok, so I asked for a digital camera for my birthday for the express purpose of being able to capture and share the cuteness of my cat, Smokey (aka Smokers… aka Pokers…aka Smokers McPokers…aka Pokers McSmokers…aka ….he’s got a lot of aliases, ok?)

well i got the camera on august 8, i took these photos on sept 15, and here it is oct 4 that i finally uploaded them to my computer.

dedicated to liz, who moved out and left her mattress behind for smokey to use as a climbing structure. smokey misses you, liz! mattress1 mattress2mattress3
