Today is the first day I have ever tasted limeade. It was not fresh squeezed limeade; one look out the window at the utterly bitter cold would tell you that no one in the state of New York is at this moment drinking fresh squeezed limeade. No, it was that delicious stuff you buy in the can (the one that most obviously resembles a can of Pillsbury biscuits) and then you stick it in your freezer and pull it out when you want it. I've had the frozen lemonade like that before. It's this disgusting slush that you mix with water but it tastes fantastic. It's amazing what will amuse me really. I thought I was going to gorge myself on the limeade. It's so bitter and yet so delicious. I think it would be perfectly acceptable to cut a coconut in half and pour limeade in it. That would be so good.
In other news, as if there weren't enough completely existential emos out there in the world, Life After People aired on the History Channel. I thought it looked really interesting so I watched it. It was definitely interesting, in a completely depressing way. Emo kids everywhere are going to watch this and spend the next month moaning about how there's no point to go on, as we'll all die eventually. Oh wait, they already do. No worries then.
Fun Fact: Microsoft word suggests replacing the word 'emos' with 'emus'.
I have to tell you, I'm really sick of hearing about Britney Spears. I don't think anyone finds what's happening that interesting really. They just haven't been able to watch their regularly scheduled sitcoms and soap operas so they tune in to see what Britney's doing, as her life is basically just a soap opera…with more booze. E! has been milking the writers' strike for all it's worth by airing even more useless crap and getting away with it. I've got nothing else to watch, I may as well watch Britney breakdown for the 291,432,321st time. Or watch Debbie Mantenopoulos blather on for thirty minutes about nothing while randomly interjecting halfway through, "P.S., Heath Ledger's dead."
Which brings me to my next point. Heath Ledger is dead. He was only 28 by the way and had a two year old daughter. I'm not too serious of a person but I think this is a real tragedy. Stupid gay jokes about Brokeback Mountain aside; Heath Ledger was a pretty fantastic actor. I don't know about you but after seeing trailers for the new batman movie 'The Dark Knight' which by the way is a completely gay title, I was pretty pumped about Ledger's performance as the joker. I'm only hoping they'll still release the film. I can't see why they wouldn't. I'm relatively certain they were done filming and it would be a great waste of money to do it with someone else. I think the biggest shame in Ledger's death, besides the fact that he was completely gorgeous, is that as I said he had a two year old daughter and she'll never even really know her father. I think that's really a shame.
Moving on to something less depressing than attractive men with little children dying, I'm pretty sure Planet of the Apes is true.
Maybe next week I'll explain.
You should just think about it though. Charlton Heston could teach us a lot. He was Moses once.
