So Awake

Only in L.A.

Afsheen and I both got the same fortune from Genghis Cohen last night:

"Whether you choose love or fame, you'll be able to handle either or both."

It's a Chrismukkah miracle!

I let my iBook air out on my desk last night, and this morning when I got to work, it turned on. It's a vampire after all! I am so, so relieved. And kind of amazed. I bought an iBook instead of a Powerbook last year because the iBook was supposed to be sturdier, but I didn't expect it to be quite so invincible. Hooray!!

R.I.P.

I dropped about half a cup of coffee onto my iBook on Tuesday. Despite the best efforts of myself and the awesome IT genius at work, it seems to be dead. I do at least have my data (although not my iTunes library, and thus not my awesome winter playlist that was supposed to be used to make holiday CD gifts this year.) The woman at Apple tech support also suggested I continue to let it dry out for a day or two, because there's a chance it will magically start up again. Kind of like when you thought someone was dead on Buffy and then all of a sudden in the next act they turned into a vampire instead.

So let's all keep our fingers crossed that I have a vampire iBook, because I can't afford to replace it right now. And if you were wondering what to get me for Christmas, the only thing on my list now is Apple Store gift cards.

I am so proud

Back in October, I gave the Veronica Mars season one DVDs (warning - spoilers ahead!) to my sister for her birthday. This morning I woke up to find this email from her, subject line: "Help!!!"

Ok, so I am obsessed and I just finished watching Veronica Mars. Who is at the door when she wakes up from the dream about her and Lilly at the end? And does Logan end up being a good guy or does he die??

Hope you're having a good day so far. (when you get this)

Love you!!

Of course, I'm not going to tell her. But I do know what to get her for Christmas now.

People who should not be allowed to drive on my route to work

• Elderly people in giant cars who go 18 miles an hour in the left lane and then abruptly swerve back and forth.

• Tourists who don't have any idea where they are or where they're going.

• Anyone making a left a turn onto Hollywood.

• Bicyclists.

• Cops.

Pacey 4ever!

I have had an incredibly exhausting day, but this totally made it better.
