another eventful day

so, i'm still having trouble figuring out how to balance the blog between my own personal rants about life and the twilight stuff which i feel compelled to discuss...

having this trouble just makes me angry at flickr all over again for making my life so much harder... hopefully i'll figure it all out soon enough. (and, once again, if this is my biggest problem in life............ lol)

ANYWAY... quick rundown on my day --

  • twitter epic fail (really fucking annoying. and, as of now, still not working 100% for me!) people with nothing better to do than fuck with websites should just kill themselves and save the rest of the world a headache
  • phone appointment with military academy (thrilling!)
  • diego gets a haircut (yay - he was starting to smell!)
  • trip to the gynecologist (ugh!)
  • nap (much needed)
  • grocery shopping (bought not 1 but 2 copies of $9.95 special rob issue of teenybopper mag!)

let's see if any of that needs elaborating on...

oh, first of all, i get to the doctor, and i take a seat, and i come eye to eye with a bunch of birth announcements... you know, various babies they've delivered recently...

and, the first one i read, the child is named "emmett"... i refuse to believe that the parents just thought this name up on their own... oy vey.

well, i do have to say that in addition to my overall hate for visits to the gyno, i think my doctor is particularly annoying. i like her well enough i guess... i've been going to her for roughly 16 years now... probably since the day she became a doctor since she isn't much older than me... but, she's always running ridiculously late. and, i don't know why, b/c my actual face (or not so much face) time with her is usually all of 3 minutes (just how i like it!).

so, yeah, i waited about 20 minutes past my appointment time in the waiting room... and then i waited ANOTHER 20 minutes sitting on a fucking table wearing a paper gown. fun times.

oh well, at least it's overwith for another 6 months...

anyway, this is a good segway...

apparently kristen stewart was at another medical building today... (unless i'm wrong and it was some other kind of building... though, i could swear someone said it was a medical building... don't hold me to that tho... and, don't start any rumors based on my info!)

anyway, yeah, so, they're making a whole fucking lot of money, but life does suck for these poor people... check out this video below of a gagillion paps following her around today (that's her mom in the truck with her)






a few more pix...




now... before you start feeling too bad for kristen... here's the more interesting news of the day...

paps caught rob driving a crazy ass porsche around LA... if you believe the paps (which one should never do) he was coming from kstew's house when the photos below were taken...



glad to see he's still rocking the yankees cap... i guess he doesn't hold too much of a grudge against NYC...

my own personal assumption is that the car is a rental... he had that silver rental this spring... and, it doesn't make any sense at all that he'd have actually gone and bought a porsche when he's only in LA for like 5 days and won't really be anywhere on a permanent basis for... oh, maybe years, to come...

so, good for him for getting a fun car to drive for 5 days... even if i couldnt' have identified this as a porsche if you paid me to!

hmmmmm... maybe the crazier robsten supporters can read something into the fact that the porsche is very close in color to the truck.... could it be a sign?

meanwhile, other things were happening in the land of twi up north in vancouver...

here are two additional shots of nikki and taylor from wednesday...





and some shots of additional cast members from a wednesday evening group dinner...

i will say that, much as kellan does nothing for me, he looks much much better with dark hair.

i still hate bryce. her hair is far too red for her pale ass face.




and, someone needs to give rob a break for a second with the dirtiness and focus on the fact that jackson rathbone could also stand to make the acquaintance of a bar of soap...



and, a bar of soap and issues of cleanliness are ANOTHER excellent segway.

you MUST check out this fabtastic entry over on robsessed -- along with the help of twitter's fakerparis, they have compiled a series of photographs detailing the long and varied history of the dirty and distintegrating trousers rob was spotted in at LAX earlier in the week.

The Mystery of the Blue/Gray Pants

let's just say that they date back to 2005... so, yep, definitely check out the link.

now, i'm perfectly willing to accept that rob would like to drive around in a fancy car but have dirty clothes and hair... boys are like that.

what i have trouble grasping is that he is mending his own clothes...

i mean, can we all pause for a moment and try to create a mental picture of him sitting down with a needle and thread?

if you look at the repair work, it's certainly NOT the work of a mom... not that he's even seen his for more than 5 minutes in the past two years...

i don't know, i really can't wrap my mind around it... lol. he'd prefer to sew than to whip out the amex and place a few orders online.......?

it's fine by me... it's just incredibly confuzzling...




but, then, i think part of his allure for all of us is that he's anything but typical...



and, yet, there's more...

ashley is featured in sept issue of glamour magazine... and looking quite good!




and nikki and kellan on the streets of van on thursday...

(from twilight gossip -- see here for more)

and, one quick movie review... which is actually somewhat twilight related...

THE WEDDING WEEKEND

***/*****



i feel like i've seen this same low budget indie movie over and over and over... college friends reunite for a weekend and compare and contrast how their lives have turned out...

they have mid-life crises that somehow come to a nice neat conclusion by sunday afternoon...

anyway, this movie initially caught my eye b/c david harbour is in it. he does a lot of theater in ny and has always been one of my favorites. (earlier this year he had a nice featured role in 'revolutionary road')

oh, and did i mention that all the men are friends b/c they performed together in an acapella group? so, there's some singing too! lol.

anyway, the film wasn't awful... just far from monumental.

oh, and it's twilight related b/c elizabeth reaser is also in the movie...

---------------

i leave you with this children.... a photo that's been circulating the web which has given me no shortage of chuckles...

i have to credit my friend christine, yankeegirl51680 on twitter, for bringing the photo to my attention...



okay kids, i hope you had a pleasant thursday...

my friday involves a drive to brooklyn for a work meeting... pray to god that the BQE (brooklyn queens expressway) is kind to me... but, who are we kidding... it's one of the worst fucking roads in the country... so, pray that i make it home alive (i'm a bad driver... so, most days, that's all i'm aiming for... )

:-)

  1. In my mind, the scene with Rob sewing up his pants involves him being very drunk and determined not to lose his favorite pair of pants.

    I hate, hate, hate the BQE. Good luck with that!

    i ownder if that's my time.

    I was cracking up at the rant re flickr thingy. this sucks. if at flickrs this might already have 200 clicks and 100 comments.

    that last pic is hilarious. the sewing thingy is beyond me too. i have amex and i'm not a celebrity. yup, whip it, Rob!

    I can't imagine being chased for all the days of my life.

    cu laterz!

  4. You know, I actually like this blog format better! It involves much less clicking and commenting on individual photos! Plus it seems you get to write more!
    That pic of Rob in the Christmas sweater looks off to me. Like his head is pasted on! But if it is indeed real, it just furthers my point that he is awesome.
