My friend MJ sent me an e-mail last week in which she lambasted her favorite show, Grey’s Anatomy, for the disappointing season finale:
I think i am going to strike against the writers’ strike by watching more TV than ever now. Some people just shouldn’t be allowed to strike and the Grey’s Anatomy writers are included. Not to mention maybe they would be getting paid more if they wrote better episodes instead of the crap ones of this season…
Disappointing season finales seem to have been the norm this year. Last Friday night’s blogger happy hour season finale, though, lived up to the hype. As always, we met up with old blog friends and were introduced to several cool newbies (I’m looking at you, and ).
I started the night by reuniting at the Sculpture Garden with friends from my last job for our Second Annual Ice Skating trip. Last year, Brewies Chewies and I raced from one side of the rink to the other. I think I won, but we’ll never know since BC tripped 10 feet from the finish line and took a header into our friend Chosang’s ice skate. He split his head open, suffered a mild concussion, and started to ask why some leprechaun was after his lucky charms.
This time, there were no ambulances called but we were reprimanded by rink personnel for doing a conga line, taking photos on the ice, and generally having too much fun, which is apparently against the rules.
Afterward, we all went to the Four Fields (it’ll always be the 4 P’s to me) and had a bloggety time. Thanks to my awesome co-hosts for an outstanding night out, which was capped with me staying up until 3am schooling Baby Bien at Wii.
Also, as I’m sure you’ve noticed, I redesigned my blog theme. I loved my previous theme (thanks, Chris Pearson) but I felt it was time for a change. Hope you guys like it, because even if you don’t, I’m not changing it. Here’s one last look at my old theme:
UPDATE:
Fixed my theme problems. Sorry, Roosh, the alphabetical listing remains. Thanks to all who wrote me for your help troubleshooting. In the end, it was something stupidly small. Figures.
i’m glad your blogroll is alphabetized. haha.
Not anymore.
#1 It was great to see you at the HH on Friday night! I think it was one of the best yet!
#2 Your new design rocks. I do miss the old header, but the design overall is much more visually pleasing.
I hope I can get it back, it just doesn’t look right in IE.
Im not pleased with my new position on your blogroll
You’re back to the top of the blogroll thanks to a design flaw.
I would say I like the new template, but considering everything is in black and I had to highlite the text to read it, I can’t tell. I think my computer is broken. Awesome.
and I thought you hadn’t posted this morning because you were doing something important at work, or perhaps were in a meeting. i should have known.
I was busy. I worked on this last night. And now it doesn’t work in IE. Great.
i’m still holding out hope that the tv season is not over yet. but i’m also hoping that maybe the grey’s writers from this season and the last half of last season are fired in the strike and the season one writers are back.
Give it up, it’s over.
Except for How I Met Your Mother, which has a new episode tonight!
It was great to meet you! I had a terrific time, and I promise to talk more about the Kings on Capital Addiction. Although most of the talking will revolve around making fun of them.
I don’t blame you. It’s like rooting for the Caps.
I find your redesign pleasing.
I did, too.
You should tell us who is who in the photo of bloggers!
You got it!
Good luck with finding out what the issue is with the new template. I’d offer to help, but for someone who has a degree in graphic design, I am really not the best CSS person to reach out to…If you’re still having trouble this evening, I can ask a few of my friends who know that stuff better than I do if one of them can assist you.
Speaking of assists, I’m going to hereby refer to you as Steve Nash, good sir.
I really am the Steve Nash of the blogging world. Maybe even the John Stockton.
The happy hour sounded like it was a great time. I need to go to the next one.
I hope you can hold out during the hiatus.
Wow! The look was quite a surprise. In fact I had to double check that I was at the right place and no fake Arjewtino had taken your name hostage.
As usual, I’m envious about the DC Blogger happy hour.
Only a 4 1/2-hour bus ride!
Capital Addiction and I had a blast. In fact, I think I’m a little afraid of what might happen at the next one.
PS, God is a Cowboys fan. No matter what Jon Kitna says.
Your love of the Cowgirls marred an otherwise awesome evening.
i just adore any “theme” with topless chicks!!!
xoxo
thumbs up on the new theme.
i am now changing my blog’s name to “AAAAA Automotive Parts”.
yeah, i’m not digging the alpha order on the blogroll either. or the nudity on the banner, you big perv.
The appearance of boobs here causes the pleasability of this blog to multiply itself by 10.
I know, the laws of mathematics dictate that you cannot get anything other than zero when multiplying by zero, but you get what I’m trying to say.
dude, organize the list chronologically.
Dude, get your own blog.
you electronic diarists sure know how to party! off da hook.
you guys are damn sexy.
I had a great night. Giving birth though was a bit difficult. Next time more shots first.
