one point for peta

Don't stink.. think pink!

I'm not one to brag... who am I kidding? yes I am!

This weekend, my fantasy football team, The Pinky Tuscaderos, the underdog of the league.. once ranked as low as 7th has done what they all say could not be done. The Pinky Tuscaderos have secured their spot in the final round, the "Real Woman Love Football Fantasy Football SUPERBOWL".

Its really unbelieveable! I beat the #1 team, the braggadocious "300".. I still have more points coming in tonight!

*sniff* Never has a victory been more sweet!

The only downside is that for the superbowl I face my own cousin's team, "the Verrazano Jill Straps"... Knuckle up cuzzo... its on!

In case you were wondering..

There is a reason why I took a untimely yet temporary hiatus from blogging. Its a very painful experience that caused me to take immediate leave. I haven't actually disclosed it to anyone... well except for my BFF VeeGee. I've tried to bury the memory in the depths of my subconscious. However recent events have made it nearly impossible for me to keep this memory hidden. Its all over TV, radio, magazines... the release of the Nanny Diaries on DVD. *GULP*

As many of you avid ramdon fans, over the years I have taken to sharing movie reviews with my readers. I, a big chicklit fan, was incredibly excited for the release of the Nanny Diaries earlier this year. I planned a week's worth of activities just to be there for the opening night. Never has disappointment bestowed such a debilitating blow.

You see, sometimes a great book is made into a great movie (e.g. Harry Potter and *anything JK chooses*). Sometimes a great book is made into a good movie (e.g. the Namesake). Yet other times a good book is made into a GREAT movie, (e.g. Devil Wears Prada). Very rarely, does are GREAT book get made into a total STINKER of a movie (case: the nanny diaries).

After seeing that movie, I was so incredibly crestfallen and essentially lost. It took me months to come to terms with the fact that very bad things can happen to good storylines.

But there you have it folks. The reason why I had to step away from the blog over the past few months. If you haven't seen Nanny Diaries the movie, DON'T. Read the book and keep

...your sanity

...... your belief in what's right and good

.........your sense of humanity!

Just when you think you've seen it all..

.. something comes along to prove you wrong...

wedding first dance - must watch the entire video!!!

Talk to me

rating: BRAVO (rating scale)

The original shock jock, Petey Greene. Seriously, with menot being a native Washingtonian, I had no idea what to expect from this film. What got me into the theater to see this flick wat the one and only Don Cheadle, who in my opinion is on of the best actors in hollywood who rarely gets the credit he deservies for his genius. Don Cheadle did not disapoint. This movie is ridiculous and hilarious yet deeply moving and poignant at the sametime. I'm not sure what the other movie critics are saying about this film, but certainly gets the butterrfly stamp of approval.

Duh!

I'd like to give this shout out ..to the happiest station on cable!

(sung to the Tune of the "my favorite things" from the Sound of Music)

Miss Nellie Olsen in dresses of satin
Lucy and Ethel with schemes full of passion
Tootie on rollerskates and Blair decked in bling
These are a few of my TVLAND things!

Rich Mr Drummond and his jet black stretch limo
A waitress named Alice and her friend flo that bimbo
Quick witted florence's refusal to clean
These are a few of my TVLAND things!

When it rains out
Or its late night
When I'm feeling sad
I simply tune into the TVLAND
Then I don't feel..sooo baaaaaad!



Thank you very much!

"It must be borne in mind...that the tragedy of life does not lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach. It is not a calamity to die with dreams unfulfilled, but it is a calamity not to dream... It is not a disgrace not to reach the stars, but it is a disgrace to have no stars to reach. For not failure, but low aim is the sin."
