The Ides of September
It's still bloody hot here in the Lone Star state, the Horns barely won the game over the weekend, and I am going broke from my therapy bills. Ah, September...
It was an eventful weekend, but I still could have used another 12 hours. I did laundry and cleaned the kitchen. I met folks for brunch and avoided the mayhem of the ACL Festival. I watched all of 10 minutes of the Emmys. I saw Sally Field get censored by the dorks at Fox.
Fall TV is starting soon. I'm looking forward to the return of The Office. I'm so glad 30 Rock won an Emmy for best comedy; however, their ratings better improve or I'm gonna have to add one more great show to my things people didn't appreciate enough so now they're gone list. Is anyone else disappointed that you have to wait until the end of the month or the beginning of October for season premieres? It seems every fall, shows get moved further and further back. Soon, things will debut in December.

Yeah that Sally Field thing was stupid because we all knew what she said, it just made Fox look tighter than Tara Reid's stomach..icky. But I have to agree with my dad here and say that celebrities should keep their opinions to themselves and just accept their awards. I understand that they have a platform and a captive audience when they accept their awards, but it's not really the time or the place.
The Emmys, of which I watched quite a bit since Mr. Wonderful didn't want to watch SciFi's original programming of Grizzly Rage (that I recorded, tee hee!), seemed unprofessional. Numerous times people mentioned that they didn't know what was going on. I think the round stage confused people.
Anyway: can't wait to see who the Fug girls lambasted! Believe me: there was a bit.

Last March I told my professor, "Beware the Ides of March." He said his mother died on the Ides of March x number of years ago. What do you say to something like that?
You say, "Oh. I'm sorry."
I guess if he's comfortable enough to make you uncomfortable, he's okay.
