more than just a dance hall drug.

What is this I hear? The writer's strike is coming to an end! Writers reached a tentative deal with the producers, and I guess we'll all know if things are good tomorrow. But, I think there are talks of an actors' strike now. Seriously. All I want is some decent television, please; no more of this reality TV crap that they keep feeding us. I want my Gossip Girl, my Office, and a regular TV season instead of the same old packaged reruns. And I'm not even a huge TV watcher. I also love seeing the best/worst of the red carpet, so it's really good the strike is ending right before Oscar season. Oh, that reminds me: the Grammys is on tonight, apparently for its 50th anniversary. Kanye is going to kill someone if he doesn't win everything Album of the Year, just because he's a prick. But I'm probably watching the show to see Feist perform, and Rihanna. And I'm rooting for Paramore. But I have a feeling I'll watch the awards show mostly in boredom, because those types of things usually are.

I'm still on my Boys Like Girls wave. "Dance Hall Drug" is such a true song, about how we're all just so young but looking to accelerate our lives with things like alcohol or sex or drugs. I wish we could all slow down and experience what we have right now (freedom from stressful things like taxes and money and marriage), except all we're looking for is to be a little bit older, a little bit more experienced. Maybe naivety is good sometimes.

I'm still waiting for a great February, but I think it's coming this week. And the next. And the next. Anyway, I smell food, so catch you later.
