People say the weirdest things in this office.
"Are you the Joker today?"
"Yes. Or a child molester, according to Lauren."
"What are you looking for?"
"Your nuts."
The actor who plays Ken Tanaka on Glee is coming in today. Tobin Bell, who plays Jigsaw in the Saw movies, was in here last week. He's from Weymouth! Oh, Massachusetts. You produce some interesting people. Cedric the Entertainer met with some executives yesterday, and he passed by my cubicle, tapped on the glass, and said something, but I have no idea what it was. Also, we got cupcakes yesterday because it was 2 people's birthdays. I love free food.
Since Glee wasn't on on Wednesday, we watched The Little Mermaid and sang along and provided commentary, one of my favorite comments being "you know who would be a great grandparent duo? Ursela and John McCain."

Fireplaces and scarves.
I'm pretty sure I saw both a drag queen and a prostitute on my way home last week.
Amy R, Liz and I went out to find costumes/accessories last night. The wind was ridiculous and when I left Sony, I had hopes for a storm, but no such luck. It felt like a September day in Boston--a little chilly but not freezing. We're all starting to miss being in the Northeast. Summery days are great, but so are scarves and hot cocoa and fallen leaves.
I'm almost out of tequila.

"When I get married, I'm walking down the aisle to 'The Circle of Life.'"-Joce
I was driving down La Brea this morning and a traffic light turned red as I approached it. Then it immediately turned green. Confusing, but I'm not complaining.
Sony continues to be interesting. We had the studio session for The C Word (the Laura Linney show that'll be on Showtime...I love Showtime) yesterday, so yesterday morning was spent running around and doing a lot of stapling. I had no idea that stapling could make your arms hurt. But I felt like I'd just lifted weights after putting together packets of pics/resumes, sides, and character notes. The session went well; Laura, the director, the writer, another producer, casting people, and the SPT presidents were all there. I realized the SPT presidents are always referred to as one unit so I have no idea which one is which.
Weekends are awesome. Since I don't have too much time to do fun things during the week (except for Glee Wednesdays and the occasional movie watching night), I try to jam pack the weekends as much as possible. Friday nights are usually spent at a bar/club (Happy Ending, The Abbey, etc) with Emerson friends, and Saturdays are usually spent at USC with Joce and her friends. Joce and I went to Venice beach this past Saturday and it was great. We went in the water and battled the waves...the waves won. I was exhausted afterwards and my legs were killing me, but hey, it was snowing in Boston, so I considered myself lucky. Joce's friend was having a house party that night, so we went there, and Joce decided to stay over while Channing came back to my apartment with me and we watched Aladdin. Sunday morning was spent driving around finding food, then Joce and I wandered around Hollywood before seeing Brand New at the Palladium.
The Sunday before that, Joce and I got brunch at Lulu's Cafe and I got excited because all the Jews were walking around in their Jew wear. I think I blocked out the rest of the day because all I remember is my french toast and watching the Jews.
The Entertainment AIDS Alliance is having a giant DVD sale, so I ordered four seasons of TV shows on DVD (the last 2 seasons of The L Word, the second season of Californication, and the second season of The Tudors) and a couple of movies. I love Los Angeles. But now I need to get the first season of Californication and The Tudors. Hello, Amazon.com. I love Showtime shows. I want to watch all of them. And own them all on DVD. After those ones ship, I'll have 85 seasons of TV on DVD, and after I get the first seasons of Californication and Tudors, I'll be up to 87. My goal of 100 by the end of the year might be doable.
Yes, I know I'm crazy.
There was ice cream cake in the freezer. This might be better than free meat week.

I can show you the world
1. Los Angeles doesn't know how to function in rain. People suck at driving, two stoplights were out on Venice when I was driving to Sony this morning, and the parking garage was soaked.
2. I'm forever going to judge KFC because for a week and a half, I drove past one whose sign said "12 PIEACE CHICKEN." So apparently someone didn't know whether to use "piece" or "peace" and just made a word with both. And then no one caught it for a week and a half.
3. The Kit Kats in the Sony kitchen are going to kill me. I eat one every day. And they're giant.
4. I went to a table read for Community on Monday. The episode was hysterical and I got to meet Joel McHale (the guy that hosts The Soup). I also went to a table read for Til Death last week and met Joely Fisher.
5. Matthew Perry walked by my cubicle last week. Channing told me I should have said "Could I BE wearing any more clothes?" (Friends quote) but I don't think I'd ever be able to do that.
6. We had a casting session for the Showtime show we're doing with Laura Linney so I also got to meet her. She's so classy. Every time I brought an actor into the room she'd stand up, thank them for coming, introduce herself, and apologize for the wait. A) Barely any one stands up for lesser known actors. B) She's Laura freaking Linney. No introduction necessary.
7. This past Friday, I went with some of my Emerson friends to the Happy Ending Bar, which is supposedly East Coast themed. There was a lot of NY stuff everywhere, so it was more New Yorky than East Coasty, but we still had a good time. Lots of dancing. Saturday, Joce and I saw Zombieland and then went on a club crawl to Beauty Bar, Social, Kress, and The Highlands. More drinking and dancing.
8. On the aforementioned club crawl, we saw Jesus in a parkinglot.

Well well you, you make my dreams come true.
Kerri: Sharon sent me an email and it says "drama lunch banana." (pause) Does that mean she wants a banana for lunch?
Marcus: She might mean mañana. Is she typing on her Blackberry? Because yesterday she meant to send me "yay!" but instead sent "gay!"
___
On my way home last night, I saw the Zombieland (the film) zombie walk. I got caught at a redlight at Hollywood and Highland and saw a bunch of zombies cross in front of me. Hahahaha. And then I went through like 6 green lights. The zombies gave me traffic luck!
___
Fire alarm went off again yesterday. We didn't evacuate this time.
___
We Punk'd an agent the other day. This place is great.
___
I think Glee is going to be the only show I'll pay full price for when it comes out on DVD.
