A Brief Nattering of Thoughts on Grey's Anatomy
I was talking to my friend Lindsay at a wedding last weekend about how much we hate Grey's Anatomy, and yet we're still watching it. And after last week's episode, I'm not sure I can keep on keeping on with it. I mean, besides the opening monologues, which are such disgustingly masturbatory pieces of writing (eg: "As surgeons, we reach inside the human body and cut out the damaged parts, but, really, who reaches into us and cuts out our bad parts?") and now the fact that there's a perma-Denny-ghost who follows Izzie around. I will just say this:
this show will be off of my DVR list unless it turns out that Denny is actually a Cylon, a la the Six who is in Baltar's head. Seeing as Izzie followed the Navajo's advice (also, was that Navajo storyline PLUS the Asperger's storyline not vaguely offensive? And also made me miss Heather Kuzmich really badly) and burnt Denny's sweater and Denny is still around as ghost-Denny, then I'm thinking very strongly that Denny is actually a Cylon. Also, Madame President Roslyn as an Aspergery cardiac surgeon must be a not-so-subtle clue that Gr'anatomy is heading very quickly in Balactica territory. Please go back to being a President, Laura Roslyn! Cardiac surgeons on Grey's Anatomy have the worst careers ever -- they either make homophobic slurs off camera and get shit-canned or else they become lesbians that the network homophobically decides are too lesbionic for their show and they get shit-canned (even if they're the same person who once rubbed the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again). Please, President Roslyn, spare yourself before you meet the same fate.

Scraps is Hypoallergenic AND a Mutt!
It's a lolbex!
And for the record, Scraps is perfect for the Obamas because this puppy will not trigger Malia's allergies, and is also a Mutt (of the Polish/Ukrainian variety).
Scraps Would Very Much Like to Be The Obamas' New Puppy
So, you know how sometimes you go to the So You Think You Can Dance live show and you get all excited about the world, and maybe earlier that day you tweeted that you'd like to throw your hat into the ring and be considered for the Obamas' new puppy? And then you get home from the SYTYCD tour, and you rode the path train by yourself because your friends had to leave early, and you were thinking about back in your early 20s when you, like, made stuff? And anyway, when you get home you log into facebook and all these people have made comments about your thing about wanting to be the Obamas' new puppy? I don't know. Maybe you paint your face like a dog and speak into your macbook. Or maybe that's just me.
O-mazingly awesome!
O-mazingly awesome!

In Case You Weren't Quite Sure
Question: Can we be very drunk on Election Night and surge the streets and join the impromptu street party in front of the Obama storefront on 105th street and totally shut down Broadway with our awesomes and our "O-ba-ma" chanting?
Yes we can.
Yes we can.

Tweet Tweet Tweedely Deet
Oooh-ey, I am just back from pilates and boy is my back tired! No, really! It is. My back. It's tired. Not my arms, because I didn't just fly in from San Francisco. Thank you, tip your waitress.
So I very much enjoy Twitter, mostly because it's the best part of Facebook (the status updates) without the Vampire/Crush on You/Movie Quiz clutter. I guess I just like to know what other people are doing. It makes me feel connected. And we all need to feel connected, am I right ladies 'n' gendearms? Exactly. So, as testament to what is awesome about Twitter, and because it is almost midnight and I spent the night making Obama-themed snacks for tomorrow night's Election Watching of joy (right? Can I say that? Surely, it's going to happen? For the good? Great Scott, I can't even deal with it. Squeeeeeeeeeee) and I am just now enjoying a dinner of Soygurt and settling in to watch my tv (I watch SO MUCH TV! You'd never believe it if I told you! It is SO GREAT that I don't sleep!)and I was like "ooh, time to twitter!" (I guess you're supposed to say "time to tweet" but that makes me feel squirmy). And so, to testify as to why I like the twitter the oh so much, let me share this exchange (names changed from twitter names to actual first names, because, oddly enough, that guarantees anonymity! Say WHUT? I know. Googleability, ur doing it wrong!). Henceforth:
Bex: will not be able to sleep tonight. is this how the non-jews feel on Xmas eve (20 minutes ago)
Tom (in response): YES! (19 minutes ago)
Ben (in response to Tom's response): GAAAAAAA (17 minutes ago)
Bex (in response to Ben's response to Tom's response): egads! i suddenly grok all those Xmas cartoons & stopmotion tv shows. Good grief. I'll put out (soy) milk & cookies (15 minutes ago)
And then right after that, it's
BarackObama: Asking you to vote Nov. 4th. Visit http://VoteForChange.com, call 877-874-6226 or text VOTE to 62262 to find your polling locations
So. Yeah. Twitter. I loves it.

Get Out the Motherfrakking Vote
Greetings, to all ten of the 13-year old boys who read this blog. If you're over 18 and registered to vote, please tie a string around your finger so that you remember to vote tomorrow. If you don't vote for Obama, then I probably don't even want to speak to you again, so, hey, it's been real.
And if you do vote for Obama, then we'll remain friends.
If that's not enough to sway you moronic undecideds out there, then I don't know what you people are waiting for.
xoxox,
bex
PS:
This wallaby has a sad. The same sort of sad I will have if you do not vote for Obama.

Dear Bex Winery, Please Sponsor Me
...and not in the 12-step sense of the word "sponsor," heh heh heh.
When I was in the Los Angeles for work this summer, I bought a bottle of Bex Riesling and kept it in my hotel room's minifridge (thank the stars for the screw top!) It was delightful. Just like me. (ha.) I, too, give way to fresh citrus, orange blossom and honeysuckle aromas.
Teehee. "Honeysuckle" sounds so dirrrrrty.

Watch "Scream Queens" Tonight at VH1 at 10/9c
Okay, puppydogs and kittens, I have absolutely nothing to do with "Scream Queens," I'm not even cutting promos for it. But, I just caught the sneak peek of the premiere episode that airs tonight (10/20) at 10pm on the VH1 and it is AWESOME. Just phenomenally compelling and entertaining. Great concept, wonderful characters, and filled with just the right level of earnest ridiculousness that I desire in a competitive reality show. Seriously - it's worth season-pass'ing on your DVR. It's that good. And, really, when have I steered you wrong? It's great to see VH1 shows that aren't about ho's. Don't tell them I said that. Here's the supertrailer to get you all excited and drooling blood and things:

I Can Has Typo?
Even the old Grey Lady (The internetz version, anyway), makes mistakes.
I assuming that "gun-totting" involves stuffing tater tots in the barrels of guns, the way hippies used to do with flowers. That's a positive image. Will church-going dudes who try to dissuade violence by shoving tater tots into gun barrels vote for Obama? I (Dinah) shore hope so.

Hand Comes Out. Sketchy Arm.
Hello, tigers. You have probably already seen "Literal Take On Me" but if you haven't, then please do me a favor and when you get a second, acknowledge why I have a new favorite thing on the internet. It tickled my fancy so much that I laughed until I cried all my mascara off: (also, the awesome doesn't kick in til the vox start at around :40 -- don't give up early.)
Now there are rivulets of mascara running down my face, but man, it just hurts so good.

The Greatest Spirit Lifter of All Time
... with gratitude to Josh Danger.
Just when it couldn't get any worse! Heroes is so suckfest! And there's nothing fun to watch on tv tonight! And I got a letter from the company that manages my 401k informing me that I no longer work for the company for whom I work! (This is clearly a mistake, because I do, but, still.) Just in time! Here is the greatest music video of all time:
