2010
I’m back (ok, been back). I learned that you should never, ever watch a sasha baren cohen or whatever his name is on a flight. I decided to take in Bruno, and boy was that a mistake. The number of dick shots in that movie is just scary. I paused it just after I started watching it as the flight attendant came around asking if I wanted a drink. Of course, the image paused was of two dudes banging in doggie style. embarassing.
It was cold as shit in florida. A couple days (like the first and next to last) it hit 70… but one night it got down to 37. Felt like I was back in Maryland all over again (which was exactly NOT the point).
I shot a quick vid of the insane hotel room I had:
spoiled I am. We also did the Universal VIP tour… just us and a tour guide. Immediate front of the line access thru all the back channels, not to mention other cool little things if you’ve ever been there before. Our guide has been around for about a billion years and told all kinds of stories about celebs. We got to go to the soundstages and see all the behind-the-scenes stuff like the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day balloons, and the room where they screen stuff for directors (she kept telling us about tiger woods being there for his commercials… maybe she hadn’t been paying attention to the news??).
My highlight was the dirt on Helen Hunt and Jeff Bridges at the Twister thingy… and then when everyone left the “ride,” we got to hang around afterwards and watch everything get put back together (assuming of course you’ve actually seen it, you’ll get what I mean).
I am never ever setting foot in any theme park again unless I have a guide. It’s balls expensive, but soooo worth it. We hit every (worthwhile) attraction in 8 hours. I can’t imagine how it would’ve gone if we’d just used the fast passes. And yes, jason rode the Mummy coaster. helps that I can’t see where the hell I’m going.
So Happy New Year and all that stuff. Debating doing my annual new years resolutions post… that hasn’t been seen around these parts for the past 2 or 3 years. If I had any resolutions from last year, I met them (chief among them was rebuilding the empire lol).
I’d say maybe getting my arm back together this year, but I’m not sure that’s something I can control. I took a pic of all the needles in my leg from my appointment yesterday… you can view it on twitpic… (edit: added it below so I’m not super lazy)
