Welcome to Your Most Fun and Sexy Time

The election is over.  The holidays are coming.  The premieres of American Idol, Lost, and 24 loom around the corner.  It is, my friends, such and incredibly fun, sexy time for you.

I wanted to take a moment to allow myself to introduce...myself.  I'm Julie.  I used to teach extremely high-level Latin (semper ubi sub ubi) to second graders, but now I teach my infant how to blow raspberries while we watch The View.  If he grows up to wear pirate themed shirts while spouting off information he heard on Hannity and Colmes or printed off from The Drudge Report, I have only myself to blame.

This blog is an indulgence of sorts for Melissa and me.  It's an outlet for our pent up rage/creativity.  Right now we are lacking a clear vision for the blog, and just plan on spewing forth our knowledge and ruminations on various topics (TV, movies, celebs, politics, food, stuff, foodstuffs).  It's basically GOOP for po' folks.

Enjoy, and feel free to leave any Arrested Development quotes in the comments section for giggles.

As you've seen from my joy over joining "Moms Who Drink And Swear" on facebook, as well as my rantings on the Idol blogs, you know that this is just what I need. Can't wait to see what this blog becomes! In the meantime, here is my all time fave:

Narrator: Tobias listens to a day's worth of his own words, to see what Michael was referring to...

Tobias: [on tape] ... even if it means me taking a chubby, I will suck it up.

Tobias: Nothing wrong with that.

Tobias: [on tape] Oh, I've been in the film business for a while, but I just can't seem to get one in the can.

Tobias: It's out of context.

Tobias: [on tape] I wouldn't mind kissing that man between the cheeks.

Narrator: ...and he realized there is something distinct about the way he speaks.

Tobias: Tobias, you blowhard.

FIRST EVAH! Oh yeah.

Great quote, Marnie.

I have not yet joined that group on the Facebook, but I should probably consider it on account of my sailor-esque vocabulary (particularly in the car). I need an intervention.

And now for an "Arrested" quote...hmm...

From my favorite epidsode, "Bringing Up Buster:"

GOB: Is it business or is it personal? Cuz if it's business, I'll go away happily; but if it's personal, I'll go away, but I won't be happy.

Michael: It's personal.

Well, Melissa, you've done it now. Another damn thing for me to do on the computer. Thanks.

Let's keep this thing clean, though. No Obama is kinda like Hitler and shit (still laughing over that).

So here's one for me:

Tobias: Michael, you are quite the cupid. You can stick an arrow in my buttocks any time.

And Melissa, I promise not to share any bar-peeling stories from Homecoming...

Melissa said...

Thanks, uhh, KEYMASTER (thanks for that!) I'll be the Gatekeeper today.

And I greatly appreciate you upholding my honor.

Chris said...

I did that for you. "Chris" is just too generic--not to mention you may get many others. So I went with the gut. Every blog needs a Keymaster. Actually, I had that line in my head all that day, "Are you the Keymaster?"

GOOP for po' folks. Awesome. I look forward to photos of you in Old Navy tunics belted (casual!) and then unbelted (dressy!) over leggings then.
