I'm not conversationally anal-retentive, but I occasionally do like lists. They help me organize my thoughts. So here goes. 1. I am sick of spam. Not only did I log in this morning to find 50 spam e-mails (that's since 11pm last night!), MTBlacklist apparently needs an update on the IP addresses some of these spammers have been using because I had to delete a bunch of comments here. Do they really think I'll be dumb enough to follow the link to loseweightandhavemonkeysex.com? 2. I neglected to mention that while in Vegas Baby Vegas, I saw both O and Mamma Mia. O was amazing in that the things the Cirque du Soleil people were doing with their bodies was unbelievable -- they must not have any bones -- but the show was exhausting in that there was so much going on that I couldn't tell where I should be looking at any given time and I walked out ready for bed. Mamma Mia was really cute and both I and my parents really liked it -- but I don't know ABBA's songs well enough to know if they adapted the lyrics at all to fit the storyline, can anyone out there tell me? If not, they did an incredible job inventing the story around the songs; and if so, it was still damn good anyways. There were about 15 women sitting 2 rows behind us who got up and were disco dancing in front of their seats during the encore songs. 3. A Coldstone Creamery opened right up the street from my apartment. Literally like 3 blocks away. Walking distance. I can't even begin to tell you how bad this is, because I've been really good about eating relatively healthfully and losing weight, and having fabulous ice cream within walking distance will kill me. The problem is, I really want to try it, but -- like everything else I eat -- I know that if I open the door once, the pressure behind it will force the door open wide and I won't be able to stop going. 4. The people at ABC are dumbasses. They put a great show, Karen Sisco, up against perennial ratings-winner Law & Order and they wonder why the show's not doing as well as it could, so rather than just moving it, they're putting it on hiatus until January. It's so typical of this Internet-speed lifestyle that if a show doesn't get ratings in the first month, they yank it. Hell, it took Seinfeld two or so years to build up the following it had but NBC stayed with it, doesn't anyone remember that?
