Okay, I will admit that I haven't seen Ray yet. But just watching clips of Jamie as Ray Charles gives me the shivers! The good kind! Now, I did watch him on In Living Color back in the day, and I am just so proud of him! He just won the Best Actor Critics' Choice award. Next up is the Golden Globes, where he is the first EVER triple nominee... up for Ray, Collateral, and that TV-movie Redemption... You go, boy. Competition is tough but I really hope an Oscar is in his future. My mom doesn't think he's funny at all but when Ray came out she said, "Now I know why he was born." lol
I'm also very proud of Thomas Haden Church... Lowell of the sitcom Wings and Ned from my beloved Ned and Stacey... for winning Best Supporting Actor for another movie I haven't seen... apparently this year's little movie that could... Sideways.
Work is scintillating as always. We added BLT's to the menu. Woohoo, lol. Seriously, barring me nearly killing the milkshake machine, it's going pretty well.
I am so random.
Okay, so I just have to replay the best of drunk Verne Troyer the other night on Surreal Life. Everybody knows Verne. Mini-Me. 2 foot 8 inch tall bald man. So all the roommates were drinking a bit, but Verne was drinking the most. Well, either him or Chyna, but she's 3 times his size! Half a glass of anything would probably be enough to get him plowed, but they showed him downing at least 3 drinks, one being out of a wine glass that was bigger than his HEAD, no shit. Maybe he was drinking 'cause he was pissed he missed Adrianne Curry and Jane Wiedlin skinnydipping, but anyhoo. He's continuously just poking Christopher Knight (Peter Brady) in the arm until he about halfway passes out. Chris Knight carries him to bed, Adrianne brings him water, everyone's checking in. Verne starts moaning like... somewhere between a car alarm and a goat. I have no idea if he was in pain, if he was trying to talk, or if he was hallucinating he was having sex with Adrianne, but it was pretty freaky. Then later when everyone's gone to bed, Da Brat has to move to the living room 'cause Chyna snores so loudly. She hears the sound of a little motor, which she realizes is the motorized scooter thing Verne gets around on. She looks up to see him in the corner, on his ride, "buck ass nekkid"... and poor boy is peeing right there. She says "That's not the restroom, sweetie," to which he's like, "Restroom's right here." Well, you can't argue with a drunk person, and she wasn't willing to get nearer to him and see the bits and pieces, so she went to get Chris. Sleepy Chris and Marcus Schenkenburg are standing there looking down at naked drunk Mini-Me trying to figure out what to do. Went something like this...
Chris: Um, you're naked... It's, uh... kind of strange.
Verne: What strange?... This whole thing is strange.
Chris: Yeah... Yeah... umm...
Verne: I'm naked right now. <--- (like he just realized it)
Chris: Well, I'm at a loss.
Poor Chris starts to turn to Marcus to see if he has a suggestion, and the curtain in the doorway, rod and all, promptly falls down on Chris' head. He and Marcus and Da Brat just burst out laughing. I don't think Verne even registered anything that was going on, lol.
It was just... ahh... brilliant television, lol. Story recounted with all love to Verne, God love him. I'm mostly excited about the fact that despite the show obviously trying to hook up the two models, Adrianne and Marcus, the previews show Adrianne and Chris cuddling and flirting a LOT! Too cute!
Dammit I think I need a migraine pill again. Or maybe I will be healed by Jell-O! Mine is ready! Yum!
