Yesterday I FINALLY put Jesus Camp back in the mail to Netflix, after maybe a month of it sitting on my bookshelf.

Today I got an email that told me I'd be getting The US vs. John Lennon tomorrow and I got really excited, because hey, I've wanted to see it for ages and VH1 was taking forever to air it (they were working on the acquisition back when I was still working there).

Two minutes ago I just saw a commercial on VH1 for this Friday's premiere airing of -- wait for it -- The US vs. John Lennon.

Can whoever's in charge of my life please let up a little on the irony? It's getting a bit exhausting.

ETA: APPARENTLY NOT.

From a phone conversation with my mother this evening:
"You should start putting yourself out there, find someone nice, have a long engagement. But don't bring home a boy with tattoos and a ponytail, I cannot have a tattooed son in law."

WTF MOM! If you're going to force me to get married, at least let me find someone who I think is hot. Seriously I don't know who this woman is anymore.

Also I watched the last five minutes of Mission: Man Band this weekend and saw, like I expected, that I hadn't been credited. It's not that I'm torn up about it or anything but that basically ensures that my entire nine months there is going unrecognized. Considering all the grief I went through getting the talent their checks for that show, I think that's a little unfair, but whatever. I'm in a much better place now, both emotionally and in terms of my own career goals, anyway.

EVERYTHING hurts.

But I'm working out again, regularly. I've been busting my ass on my dad's Nordic Track skier daily. I've heard that if I keep this up for 15-20 minutes every day, I should make it down to a size 6 extremely easily -- long before the end of August.

Incredibly excited. It's been my dream to be a 6 for the longest time. I just hope my boobs don't shrink. ::grins cheekily:: Plus I told myself I wouldn't buy any new clothes before I reached my goal. Some motivation, huh?

The nostalgia for my teenage years has disappeared and am now throrughly thrilled to be a twentysomething.

I want to go to Paris for a week.

Been watching "Sex and the City" on TBS; now I want to rent the DVDs and watch the real thing. I've actually been kind of disappointed, but maybe that's just because I'm only starting to watch after years of hype. Some of the writing is excellent (my hot TA used to be on the auxiliary writing staff for the show, apparently), but the show itself just seems kind of uneven.

I LOVE "WILL & GRACE". And I have a deep, entrenched need to buy Seasons 1 and 2 on DVD. Soon.
