Top Five of the Week: 4/18-4/24/11

1: Community
This week's "clips" show was one of the funniest yet.   As a huge lover of 80s sitcoms,  I love that they do "classic" 80s sitcom episodes.  I loved the Glee parody, the love of The Cape, and the "flashback" of Britt stealing Annie's chapstick.  I've already watched this episode 3 times.


2: The Office
While not the best episode of the series, it won my heart with parody of Seasons of Love.  Jim Halpert singing a version of Rent *swoon*


3: God of Carnage
Today I went to see God of Carnage at the Ahmanson.  I really enjoyed the show.  We were lucky enough to see the show with all of the cast: Jeff Daniels, Hope Davis, Marsha Gay Harden, and James Gandolfini.  The premise is two couples working out a situation between their sons and the craziness that ensues.  My friend, Chris, told me it's being made into a movie with Kate Winslet.  I'm curious to see that version.


4. Tina Fey & Steve Martin
Tina Fey is on a promotional tour for her book, Bossypants.  On Tuesday I attended an event where she was interviewed by Steve Martin about the book.  How awesome to see two such great people.  The questions Steve asked lead to answers that I'm sure are in the book, but it was still great.  I was hoping to get Tina's autograph in the book, but the line for that was crazy long and we decided against it.

5. Pinterest
This website is such a time sucker, but it's fun.  It's an easy way to share links and information amongst friends.  If you're on it let me know.

I got this as my fortune at dinner.  It's too perfect if you finish the phrase...





Top 5 of the Week: 4/3-4/9/11

I think I am the world's worst blogger.  It's been a month and a half since I post on here. (I'm glad I switched to the free blog) I really want to get better at it, but I always let other things get in the way.  My friend Chris reminds me.  I need to steal some of her motivation.  Anyway, I thought I would catch up on my top 5 of the week starting with last week.

1. Doctor Who
I have been meaning to start streaming this for the last couple of years.  I hear about it all the time and knew I would like it... I was right.  I'm halfway through the second season.  Lucky for me, Netflix has all of the seasons that have been released already available to stream.

2. My iPad
I recently got an iPad and I LOVE IT.  There are already so many fun things to do with it and recently I found another one.  There are some other shows I've been wanting to catch up on so I added them to my iPad.  I made a deal with myself that in order to watch those shows I have to be on the elliptical.  I'm hoping that it will make the time go by faster.  That hasn't been true yet, but hopefully it will be.

3. The Getty Villa
I this past weekend and it was fun.  It had been a few years since I had been and being there made me think I should go more often.  It was a beautiful day.  A good friend I hadn't seen in awhile also make it more enjoyable.

I think I will leave it at that for this post.  I was pretty busy with work and finishing my personal training sessions/working out last week so I'm behind on TV and didn't get out to to much else.  I also need to save my blogging energy so I can get another post up soon.  ;)
