The Obsession Connection

Hello, FOLCs. Allow me to grab a tissue and join Karen in her time of sorrow. Karen, I totally agree. The Golden Globe people are morons. They've gotta be. There's a reason L&C never got nominated! Don't let the actions of those idiots get to you. They are pocket lint!!

On a lighter note, I love Buffy, too. I love it because it is like watching L&C all over again. I mean, the shows are totally different in that they have two different premises. However, there are so many similarities in the characters, the emotions, and the humor, that I can almost guarantee that if you love L&C, you will love Buffy if you give it a chance. Would I lie to you? There's a reason I'm obsessive--I know what I'm talking about, and I talk and talk and talk and rarely stop. But you should know THAT by now! Buffy is one helluva good show. It's better than good. It's the best thing on TV, next to Lois & Clark.

This weekend was a killer. It snowed! Not that snow is anything rare in Oregon. Snow in Sunnydale (like in the episode that re-airs tonight at 9pm on the WB, attention west-coast FOLCs!) comes as a surprise. In Oregon, it's a yearly event, but we usually get it in January. Snow for Christmas? Now that's just plain cool. But I don't like it one bit. It's seventeen degrees outside and I am one frozen FOLC.

Speaking of snow, I am freaked out by those commercials for "Jack Frost". Aughhhh that snowman is a psycho!! I apologize to anyone who has seen the movie and loved it, but I want that snowman to melt and never come back. I keep seeing commercials for it. I saw four commercials while I was watching the Batman & Superman Adventures today. That show is so cool! Well, sometimes it's lame and I find myself rooting for the bad guys (Yeahhh! HAHAHA!! The killer bug just stepped on Batman! Haha!), but for the most part, the show--well, the Superman part of it anyway--reminds me of Lois & Clark. Sometimes they will say things that they said on L&C! I'm not kidding. Obsessive people, such as myself, will pick these things up, and I'm telling you, it's hilarious. Plus, actors that appeared on L&C lend their voices for characters on the Batman or Superman cartoons, and it's cool when you recognize them.

Ah, the things I do when I'm bored, with nothing to do.

It's only four days until Christmas, and thankfully, all my shopping was done, long long ago. I would totally hate to go outside in this weather. Now, the only thing I have to fear are my relatives, who I am supposed to see on Christmas Eve and Christmas. My relatives are insane...but, just to be on the safe side in case any of them happen to read this, there are a few non-insane ones. Really! There are a few. Relatives. You know how they are. Those people that eat ham. Those people that play poker and laugh like hyenas. Those people who say murder is bad, but love hunting innocent animals for sport. Those people who watch football and don't even care what teams are playing. Those people who discuss politics as if they know what the heck they are talking about, but more often than not, they're just all-talk, no knowledge, and have you ever been around your grandparents and other people their age? They talk about diseases and stuff that's totally gross that I shouldn't have to worry about until I'm 102. Last Thanksgiving, I overheard a conversation my grandma was having: "Yeeahh, my sister Ethel Jean just had surgery to remove her elbows." My aunt: "Oh really? She has blahblahitis, doesn't she?" Grandma: "Yes, yes. It's affecting her nostrils. Soon she won't even be able to walk." Aunt: "I heard she's losing her sight." Grandma: "Yes! They are thinking about removing her lungs." Aunt: "Is that so? Hmmm, perhaps I should send her a basket of fruit and a sympathy card."

Gotta go, my Furby's telling me he's bored. MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE!!!!!!!!! And be sure to watch Buffy, because if you don't....don't even ask what I will do. ;-)
