I'm a TV freak!
Ok I'm gonna try this again. I've been trying to post this for the last two days and Vox keeps crashing on me.
I went to the this weekend to see the Ron Mueck exhibition. His work is absolutely amazing. Pictures will not and cannot do his pieces justice. You’re not allowed to take pictures but I was able to sneak one before the guards could see me.
That's my friend Tin standing next to his massive piece entitled In Bed.
It's just AMAZING the details he puts into his pictures – pores, moles, veins, back hair, nose hair, blemishes… it’s just unbelievable. They’re so lifelike it looks like they’re about to move or just moved out of the corner of your eye.
These pictures from the 's Flickr account are great cause they show them installing a few of his pieces.
The exhibition is there until February 2007 and then it will go on to . You can read about the exhibition on the Brooklyn Musuem website.
The Washington Post has these great photos as well.
There's also an Annie Leibovitz photography collection on the same floor. More than 200 photographs. Also quite amazing.
It was my Urban Word of the Day from Urban Dictionary on Monday.
The definition:
Proving your patriotism by hating the people the government tells you to hate. Used in a sentence: Well, I guess they've added a new country to the list of our enemies. I better hate them, too, if I'm going to prove my hatriotism.
What is your favorite board game?

Scrabble Scrabble SCRABBLE!! OMG I love that game. Of course I can only find a handful of people who'll play with me (sigh. Oh how I suffer).
What's the most klutzy thing you've ever done?

Ugh! I was walking down the steps of my friend's house in Napa Valley and I missed the last step entirely. Fell like a ton of bricks and badly sprained my right ankle. I had to crawl across the street to get to my apartment and was out of work for a bit. The day I finally go back to work? Felt something pop as I was going in and my boss had to wheel me to a cab on a chair through the building and went back to the emergency room. Ri-damn-dic-ulous. The sucker still hurts every once in awhile and it's been 3 years!
I am HEATED!!! My stupid bloody friggin DVR failed me again!!! Grrrrrrrrr! The idiotic thing tapes 40 minutes of CSI, 1 minute of 30 Rock and DELIBERATELY AND WANTONLY defies me and does not tape the supersize episode of The Office last night!
Damn IT!
Naturally it's the only damn show that doesn't show episodes for free online! I'm so ripping Directv a new one!!!
That being said does anyone have The Office from last night?
PS Lauren saved the day and taped it for me. Thank Jesus!
Well it's done. I was scared spitless. Thought I'd have a heart attack as he was putting on just the freezing spray. He was good though and distracted me as he was putting in the novocaine (couldn't afford to be knocked out). Turns out he took out the top 2 instead of the bottom two. They grew too much since they never met the bottom ones and were digging into my gums. That's what was making my gums swollen. The good news is that since they were already out it was easier to pull them. Didn't feel jack when they pulled the first one but I felt it when he started on the other one. Had to inject me again! Naturally that's the side that's killing me now. I looked like a chipmunk yesterday and now I look like a lopsided one. Thank goodness for the codeine!
