"I once broke up with someone for not offering me pie."

Day 18- A picture of the cast of your favorite TV show.

When I first read this question, I was concerned because there are so many shows out there that I enjoy, but the answer was really quite simple.

I will give you some hints... (The title of this blog is a hint).



Mandelbaum


















"If you know what happened in the Mets game don't tell me, I taped it. Hello?"





















Vandelay Industries





















"Master of your domain"
























Monk's Cafe

















Close Talker/ Low Talker/ High Talker/ Man Hands.....




















A show about nothing







































........so it should have been pretty easy, because those hints made it pretty simple. It is of course the best TV show to ever grace television.....

SEINFELD


It is a show about nothing, but at the same time it is about everything. Every day I have at least one Seinfeld relatable moment. It is hilarious, fun, and has some of the best characters in the world. 4 people who spend a good amount of time making fun of others, that is my kind of show. Love it!

Sing, sing a song. Sing out loud, sing out strong.

Day 17- Your favorite song.

This was incredibly hard. I have been thinking about it all day, and like always there will be more than one.

These are songs that I truly enjoy, and I think I will forever enjoy.


  • "Bohemian Rhapsody"- Queen; I love songs with no choruses. This has three distinctly different parts, but still flows perfectly. I don't think that I have ever heard this song, and not sang and danced along. It is a classic, and every knows it. Listening to "Bohemian Rhapsody" in a crowded room is great because everyone is singing and dancing. 
  • "Let Down" and "No Surprises"- Radiohead; What can I say? I am an Ok Computer kind of a girl. I love Thom Yorke, and Radiohead, so if I didn't list at least one song then this list would be a complete lie. Ok Computer kind of has a depressing sound to it (why I listen to it in the rain), but it doesn't make you feel that depressed, and dark because it leaves you with a twinge of hope in it too. I love it, and I think these songs encompass that feeling so well. 
  • "Eleanor Rigby" and "Hey Jude"- The Beatles and "Imagine- John Lennon; This is another group that I cannot list without getting my real feelings. Eleanor Rigby is supposed to be about the post war feeling, and that violin in it is perfect. Hey Jude is for Lennon's son when they were getting a divorce, but I think at the beginning when they sing, "take a sad song, and make it better" everyone's heart is lifted a little bit. Imagine is a beautiful song, and if you haven't heard it then I suggest you listen to it, "You may say that I am a dreamer, but I'm not the only one." 
  • "Temptation of Adam"- Josh Ritter; Everything this song alludes to is incredible, and just shows how great a writer Josh Ritter is. It is a song about the cold war, and two people a man and woman that are in a missile silo together, and they fall in love. At the end he is tempted to launch a nuke and start world war 3 just because he wants their love to last, and he doesn't believe it will outside in the real world, just like how eve is tempted with an apple by satan to have knowledge. There are so many great things about this song, but I will move to my last song. 
  • "Sin Wagon"- Dixie Chicks; I won't get into the meaning, but it is a well written song about rebelling (pretty much). I love it. I love Natalie Maines' voice. The twang is perfect, and the blue-grassy feel to this song makes you want to get up dance.

I don't care for the # 16, but I like this blog day

#16- A picture of someone you would like to change places with for a day.

Once again you are going to get more than one picture, but they will be in order of my wanting to change from last to first. Get excited....


Natalie Portman. I like her, I like the movies she is in, I like her style, I like her taste in things, and I think she is pretty much radical. I would change lives with her even though I just think we should be friends in real life. 

Elaine Benes (not Julia Louis-Dreyfus). I don't know if a fictional character is an option, but changing lives is impossible so I am picking her. She is funny, and amazingly sarcastic. An independent powerful woman who gets to hang out with Jerry. I will take it. 

Jenny Lewis. Smart, talented, and just super cool. I would love living her life for a day. 

Tina Fey. She is my hero. She can make fun of herself, she is having tons of fun, and she is freaking smart. Love her.

My 15 minutes.

Day 15- A picture of something I want to do before I die.

First, the inner Columbus in me wants to go discover the world. I want to travel, travel, travel...... I want to meet new people, learn new things, immerse myself in different cultures, and just see the world, and all the beauty that it has. Unlike Columbus, I will not kill the indigenous people, but instead immerse myself in their culture, and learn from it. 

The next thing I want to do is skydive. I know it is cliche, but this is a rush that I want to feel.  
Finally, run a marathon. I used to love running, and when I do it I remember why I loved it.... it hurts so good.

The 14th Day

Day 14- A picture of someone you can't imagine your life without... 

Your friends really do have a huge effect on your life. They have helped me through a lot of difficult times, and have kept me grounded (for the most part). Figuring out who I was, and the whole growing up process would be a whole lot different without these people. 


 My nephews always make me smile. No matter how rough the day has been. They are a blast. I am going to miss them A LOT when I move to Denver. 

Last but not least... 

We have been together for the past three years, and now are truly starting a life together. It will be a blast, and I couldn't imagine not having this wonderful man in my life, and lucky for me, I don't have to.

Wilt Chamberlain was #13 and so is today.

Day 13- Post a picture of something you hate.

Well HATE is a strong word, but, lucky for you, there is something out there I hate....


or a much more honest picture...
It is the news station that I HATE not the people. I just have an extreme distaste for the people on it....
Megyn Kelly

Bill O'Reilly



Glenn Beck
Who promote stuff like this...

and you just spit all over the American Muslims
that were killed in the attack, and all over our constitution. 

This lady reads all of the newspapers, and magazines. 

The Tea Party

brought to you by the tea party. Is anyone surprised? 
 This blog is going to be hard to post because the idea of these pictures being up on my blog is absolutely horrible.
Fox News, I wouldn't have a problem if you stood for what you really are... a conservative propaganda machine, but claiming to be fair and balanced is a lie, and it is sad because your viewers believe it is true. They believe that what you are saying doesn't have a ridiculous republican agenda. You have been called out multiple times, and have admitted to skewing the news to reach your audience, so it is time you stop calling yourself fair and balances. Fox News is everything that is wrong with american politics, and has dramatically increased the polarization of politics.

FOX NEWS, I HATE YOU!!!!

Day 12- A picture os something you love.
BOOKS, BOOKS, and more BOOKS! I love to read. Nothing feels better than getting lost in a book. This is a picture of the library at Trinity College (I have been there), and some HP shots were filmed here, so it is a great picture that represents my love for books, and means something to me.



CHAZ LOPEZ-HILKER

Look at how cute he looks, that sweet mug, and crazy hair. 




How can you not love him? 
I don't think he enjoyed these two pictures nearly as much as I did.



 This last picture is in honor of the holidays. 
Merry Christmas!!
Love, Chazzy-boy!
