Riddles

I recently watched a movie called Nemesis Game and there were a bunch of riddles in it that made me giggle.

I felt the need to share.

1. What never asks a question but demands an answer?

2. When is a door not a door?

3. What does a spider weave that has no eyes and yet can see?

4. A man is running late for work one day. In his rush he forgot to grab his umbrella and raincoat, but he still manages not to get wet. How?

5. What has keys but no lock, space but no room and you can enter but never go in?

6. What has rivers but no water, forest but no trees and cities but no buildings?

7. A man lies dead in the middle of the desert. All he has with him is an unopened package. The unopened package explains his death. What is it?

And for the kids...

8. What's a ghost's favorite color?



Any guesses??

Fall TV is Coming! Fall TV is Coming!

I CAN NOT WAIT til Fall TV comes back! And it is getting sooo close!

I pretty much hate summer TV (except Weeds and USA's Monk, Psych, In Plain Sight and Burn Notice), since I am not one for reality TV. The closest I come to watching reality TV is MTV's The Real World and The Hills, which I know is the worst of all but I have been watching them forever. I enjoy scripted TV so much more AND IT IS ALMOST HERE!!

Returning Favorites:

Greek (returns 8/26): ABC Family always surprises me at how openly and accurately they portray teenagers, college kids and attack legitimate issues. And although Greek is full of stupid fun it has some depth and emotion that is quite real.

Gossip Girl (9/1): Who doesn't love to watch beautiful people and RIDICULOUS drama??

One Tree Hill (9/1): Because I am a die-hard fan and I have seen most of the actors in real life. Plus it is fun recognizing different places around Wilmington.

Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles (9/8): Good Action, and who doesn't miss Brian Austin Green?

House (9/16): House is soo funny, and last season had some good shockers. But I miss Chase and Cameron! Love 13 though as an addition.

Supernatural (9/18): I LOVE JENSEN ACKLES. LOVE HIM. Plus the show is AWESOME. It's a horror movie every week and funny. Perfection.

Heroes (9/22): Because they promise it is going back to the awesomeness of season 1. Plus it's called Villains...and we all know how I like the bad people.

Brothers and Sisters (9/28): Ahhh the Walker drama. Plus a stellar cast.

Dexter (9/28): Serial Killer with a conscious you say? How amazing.

Pushing Daisies (10/1): Lee Pace touching dead people back to life makes a cute and quirky show.

Ghost Whisperer (10/3): Like the show, but what happened to Ned last season? The random growth spurt of like 7 years really still bothers me.

Also going to watch but not quite as excited about:

Prison Break (ohhh Wentworth), Grey's, Ugly Betty, Desperate Housewives, Private Practive, Dirty Sexy Money, CSI

New Show's that Have Potential:

90210 (9/2): Because I can't seem to stop myself.

Samurai Girl (9/5): 2 Words...Brendan Fehr (for those of you who don't know who that is...it's the guy who played Michael on Roswell...which was a show on the WB back in '99. Still love it)

Fringe (9/9): Joshua Jackson. Need I say more?

Priviledged (9/9): It's on the CW and I will give it a try, but I do not have much hope.

Valentine (9/21): Don't even know what it is but it's on my list...and yes, I have a list. Actually, it's an excel spread sheet. Gotta be organized for Fall TV.

Now, this may seem a little crazy and obsessive to some, but I really love my TV shows. I DVR everything, since I usually am working while they are on and watch them all before I go to bed. And I am still in college so I have more free time than most. Plus I am obsessed with HOT actors. Love to watch them.

Have I mentioned I CAN NOT WAIT!

Been bad about writing

Well, it has been a while since I wrote on here and lots has happened!

I went home to NY on vacation for 2 whole weeks! It was soo fun and relaxing. I enjoyed hanging out and having fun with no responsibilites for 2 full weeks.

My friend Tatum is currently unemployed so I had someone to hang out with during the days while everyone else was working which was awesome! My friend Jay, who currently lives in PA, also was home for part of the time I was so we hung out with him also. And that was just during the day time where we did a whole lot of nothing and eating and a lil bit of drinking.

The first Saturday night I was home I had dinner at Ashley's mom's house for her birthday. We had empanadas. They were yummy. Then we went to Tatum's for a Rockband party! Tatum, Tony, Zack, and I played while Ash and Joe mainly watched. We drank a bunch and had a good time. Made me miss all my buddies.

Then Sunday we went dress shopping for Tatums wedding...in October 2009. And yes, she is a little ahead of the game. We tried on a couple dresses and found one we all liked..i think. But we are waiting to order them until her 5th bridesmade will be in town to try it on. I am the worst weddingey person ever. I had my dress on for maybe 5 minutes and took it off as fast as possible. PLUS all of her bridesmades are a size 4 or smaller...and I am not. big boo. But it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, and I was better behaved than Tatum thought I would be so i guess it was a win-win. Then her parents took all of us out to dinner for her birthday. We went to olive garden and it was yummy.

Thursday was Tatum's actual birthday and we spent the day at the track. The Saratoga Race Track is only open during the summer and it makes a fun day to go and bet on horses. We got there before the 2nd race and left after the 7th. No one really won any money, which is always kind of depressing. My friend Jay was super grouchy about losing and Ashley didn't really bet at all. I go always expecting to lose so that wasn't any real surprise.

Friday me and all my besties went camping. Tatum's parent's have a camper on a camp ground at Lake Bomoseen, VT and they weren't using it that weekend so 7 of us (me, tatum, ashley, joe, mike, zack and tony) went up to drink and chill. My dad babysat my dog for me so it was nice to have a Phillip free weekend for a change. We all had a really good time and got along all weekend so that was nice. I drank too much, played cards, and relaxed, i liked it. We came back Sunday afternoon.
(maybe i will write a more detailed blog about it later, cuz lots of fun happened I'm just to lazy to write it all out now.)

Then I read the newest book from the Twilight Series, Breaking Dawn! It is the 4th and final installment of the series and it was PERFECT. I couldn't have written a better ending myself. Now I just can't wait for the movie to come out in December!

I left the following Wednesday and drove the long 12 hour drive home.

I had a great time, and did lots of other fun stuff, like hanging out with my parents, going to the drive-ins, and being able to walk outside without sweltering. That was especially nice. Now that I live in the south, I HATE the heat. But when I'm in the north I hate the snow. Guess I just need to be retired and go back and forth during the appropriate seasons.

Being back to work sucks and having to go back to school soon sucks even more. But what can I do?

I caught up on some movies when I got home. Megan and I went to see Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2...which was good and The Pineapple Express...which was also awesome.

I am trying to make the most of the rest of my summer, going to the beach and hanging out. I have one week left then it is time for my last semester for a loooong time, maybe forever!

And I will try to be better about writing. Really.
