no guru

Rebekah came to work with me New Year's Eve.  Here we are sharing ear buds and watching One Tree Hill.  Ya, you read me right: at work watching One Tree Hill.  Rebekah said, "This is like school except worse."

• Phrase of the day: confound it
• I saw Marley and Me.  For heaven's sake don't see it unless you enjoy experiencing several types of pain all at once.  In that case, by all means make haste.
• I saw The Love Guru.  I'm almost embarrassed to own it. [Can you tell I have been reading Pride and Prejudice again?]  It was so bad [The Love Guru, not Pride and Prejudice] that I turned it off 1/4 of the way through.  I am mad I even watched that much of it.  I am all for crude humor, but there is a line.  It was crossed by a mile.
• I saw What Happens in Vegas.  It was pleasant for a mindless diversion.
• Quotation of the day: "People want to know why I do this, why I write such gross stuff.  I like to tell them that I have the heart of a small boy... and I keep it in a jar on my desk." --Stephen King
