Remember when I was writing a novel (really!) and I stopped doing The Binge for awhile? Remember how I said that I was still watching the shows, regardless? Well, that was mostly true. But I dropped “So You Think You Can Dance,” because it was wayyy too time-consuming. During the summer, I’m all about hours and hours of dance-TV. But during the rest of the year… sorry, I gotta get my beauty sleep. I mean, you saw me on “30 Rock.” Imagine what I would look like if I DIDN’T get my beauty sleep.
But I will TRY to watch the finale (I think it’s on my DVR), because that’s basically a recap of the season’s best dancing. But REALLY I want to watch because Adam Lambert is performing. How perfect is that? I hope he makes out with everybody, starting with one of the male dancers. (I don’t know who they are! I’m out of the loop!) And then Adam Shankman, and Simon Cowell, and Susan Boyle, and Ellen DeGeneres, and whoever else is there. (I haven’t been watching!)
Next season: Lady Gaga. (I hope!) If she’s still living on this planet.
Also: I ate a delicious gingerbread cookie today. God, I love spice cakes and cookies. (Thanks, God.) I don’t have a picture. You just have to believe me. And you also better believe that I ran TWO MILES this morning. And watched MRS. DOUBTFIRE (on TV, so it counts) over the weekend– which I haven’t seen in FOREVER. (Those events aren’t related, but they all happened.) I feel a tangent coming on…
It’s hard for me to believe that the kids don’t KNOW that Mrs. Doubtfire is their dad (SPOILER ALERT), because… wouldn’t you recognize your dad in drag? I look a lot like my dad, so my dad in drag would look suspiciously like me. (And/or Judah Friedlander.) And the scene where the son realizes that Mrs. Doubtfire is a man? It’s kind of trans-phobic. I didn’t think about THAT last time I saw it, c. 1999.
But whatever. It’s Robins Williams in his heyday. And Sally Field. And Pierce Brosnan. And that Lawrence brother. And that “Dude Looks Like a Lady” song. And a petting zoo. And San Francisco.
I’m tired. Wake me up on Saturday.
