Three AM Thoughts

The thing about late-night posts as a Mormon is that you don't have any excuse for any rambling/uninteresting/racist thoughts you may post late at night because you're never hyper-caffeinated, drunk, or under the influence of anything (EXCEPT LIFE!).  So here are my late-night stone cold sober, random thoughts:

• As a Mormon, I took interest in an interview with Rachel Bilson (of The OC fame) mentioning she had Mormon friends and had even been to church once.  I mention this because there is a vacancy in my female celebrity crush - previously occupied by Hilary Duff and most recently Natalie Portman, these women have decided to rip out my heart and get engaged (and pregnant in Natalie's case - double shot to my heart).  So I'm on the prowl for a new impossible love interest.  I am considering Ms. Bilson but Kristin Kreuk (pictured in all her glory below), who I just saw on Chuck, has me intrigued.  She is literally the PERFECT blend of Asian-American-ness.  I'll keep everyone posted.  In case you were wondering, my male celebrity crush of Taylor Kitsch remains constant.

• I am not minding this season of American Idol.  I find Steven Tyler incredibly entertaining, which is interesting because I've never been smitten by Aerosmith's music, but his mannerisms and spontaneity keep me watching to see what he does next.  He brings back some of Paula's zaniness that was sorely missing last season.  Also, J-Lo in HD is mind-boggling - the woman doesn't have a flaw!  

• I am growing to enjoy Community more this season - the most recent Dungeons & Dragons episode was awesome, which should be sign enough to watch this show because it made that topic interesting.  Also, 30 Rock (along with Modern Family) is the most consistent comedy - I find myself laughing out loud multiple times a episode, something I can't say for The Office mainly because I can't stand Erin and Gabe separately, let alone together.  

• I won my first contest! Actually, that's a lie, I won a teddy bear at a middle school Valentine's Day dance, but this one is legit.  I won a one-year subscription to Rdio, a music streaming site that can also stream from your phone.  I'm pretty proud of myself and excited to get into all the Coachella artists I need to check out.

• Watching various concerts on palladia (if you don't know about this channel, they basically show concerts all the time - I'm in love) has me convinced I need to see 1) La Roux and 2) Paul McCartney in concert.  The clock's ticking on the latter so I should get moving.  

• I am going to a friend's wedding on Saturday and am having a facial catastrophe - why is it though that at all weddings I've been to/pictures I've seen acne seems to disappear for a day?  Maybe I just know too many beautiful, clear-skinned people.  I have a feeling on my wedding day, I'll have a redux of the monster that took up residence on my nose a couple years ago (that's the monster in action in the picture above and yes, I have pictures of the most significant zits in my life).

• I'm pained that Justin Bieber was booed at a Knicks game - why the hate New Yorkers?  He's such a nice kid. 

• I don't think I've ever been less excited for a Super Bowl.  I just don't like the Packers and I take personal issue with Ben Roethlisberger and his dealings with women.  Plus, halftime is The Black Eyed Peas - Fergie is terrible live and I have not enjoyed the singles from their last two albums.  My predictions: Packers lead at halftime, I go to the bathroom during BEP's set and miss Fergie's wardrobe malfunction (this happened to me w/ Janet Jackson and I have never forgiven myself for the opportunity I missed to see guilt free nudity), and the Steelers win.
