not one in a million

tonight i found out that i am not the only earthling obsessed with Rock for Love!!! there i said it out loud... i like rock of love! i watch it all the time while on the treadmill... and when the marathons are on, i have to literally pry myself away. its tres difficulte.

but thats okay.... b.c if someone as fabulous as Jennifer Weiner can admit that to a crowd, then i can admit it to you. just add rock of love to my guilty pleasures list, right up there with Hogan Knows Best and Paris Hilton's book ;)

and how do i know that Jennifer loves the show too... well we are bff and chat everyday of course!

LOL okay, sadly im kidding... but i bet we would have a great time on a coffee date. or a shopping spree... or a day hanging out with Mr.TiVo!
seriously though, I met the fabulous Jennifer at a book signing at the Barnes & Noble in Lincoln Center tonight. And let me just say, she is just as witty and charming in person as she is in her books.

More on that tomorrow though, b.c i have to upload the photo of us...

OH YEAH i got a photo with her, and yes im a wee bit gitty about it :)

check back tomorrow for the full details! nite

PS if anyone doesn't know who Jennifer Weiner is.... well #1 shame on you and #2 click here
you'll be thankful you did :)

mass transit can kiss it

Dear New York City MTA....

YOU SUCK.

I mean, i was super glad to read half of my book tonight.* but not happy at all that i had to read it while sitting on the W train for an hour. Yes, MTA, you had me stranded, between stations for AN HOUR with NO way off and NO announcements as to why.

this is unacceptable.

you raise your fares but don't raise your service. what gives?

is my $81 a month not enough to assure my timely transport from point A to point B?

even after going on strike through the holiday season of 2006, and ruining holiday shopping & tourist vacations you were still not able to get your s*#%) ** together enough to provide adequate service? i know you got more money, more benefits, & more time off just to come back to work. i would think after all of these pleasures you would at least work efficiently.

i so wish i could boycott you because after tonights excursion, i would be on my own MTA strike. ***

*Jennifer Weiner's The Guy Not Taken... pick it up, its goooood!
**Mr.HG and i are cutting back on our swearing, but some situations call for the big girl words
***unfortunately, my only other mode of transportation are my feet, and in my hott shoes, they can only take you so far.

PS i try not to post negative rants on here, i want my blog to be a happy oasis..... but sometimes a rant is in order. better post tomorrow!
