Re: FRIDAY CONFESSIONS

  • I have to do an orangutan impression for this play I am doing, and I suck at it. The director thinks it's because I'm embarrassed but it's really that I just SUCK at it!! I'm trying!  I've started watching this for inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7i5JoxsOF4

  • So with this situation of a friend moving in with her children (it will be like a sitcom in my house), I know I'm doing the right thing and all, but my brain is being weird about it.

    I keep getting excited, while being stressed, because now Christmas will not just be my husband and I and there will actually be kids in the house to celebrate with.

    Priorities.  My brain is lacking them.

  • I don't particularly like Anna Kendrick. She bothers me a lot and I'm not entirely sure why.

  • A co worker accidentally "replied all" with a snarky reply to an office email. I feel super bad for her, and I know it easily could have been me. Poor thing. She handled it well by immediately sending an apology. Email snark is dangerous.

    I am going to a UFO festival tomorrow. I don't want to but it's not a hill i'm willing to die on. There will be a parade. And some FB snark most likely. So ... there's that.

    I have a friend who works in Hollywood publicity. She has worked with a ton of celebs and said Anna Kendrick was one of the worst ever. This was several years ago, even...before she got more famous/popular and had only really been in Twilight and Up In The Air.

    I'm convinced she is the reason I don't LOVE Pitch Perfect. I like it ok, and it is totally my kind of movie, but I can take it or leave it. She is a ruiner!

    Yes!  Thank you.  I wasn't sure what bothers me about her either, but she does. 
    And I love Pitch Perfect, but I don't love her.

    I started following her in IG and she's SO BORING.  It's almost exclusively sexy photo shoots.  While they obviously have a place with her being a celebrity, I follow celebrities to hopefully see what they are really like.  Not just the airbrushed articles, you know?

     I pink puffy heart Reese Witherspoon for exactly this reason. Her instagram is so real! She is a book lover, and seems awesome. Total opposite of AK.

    So will it break your heart when I tell you that she's known to be incredibly difficult?

    Staaaaaaaahp. This is sad. I may need to stop following her. What a bitch. :( Unless she was drunk, cause I might say something like that drunk. Even though who I am is nobody.

    OMG, this is actually pretty hilarious. She's acting like a jerk, but hahahahahaha. "I am an American citizen!" Lol. The cop is doing a good job.  Takes her down a few pegs in my opinion of her, but not as bad as that twatnozzle ESPN chick.
