Hump Day Musings, Morning

Welcome to Wednesday!

Actual text conversation with E-ve yesterday afternoon.
Wally: Hey E-ve, what ya doin?
E-ve: Grocery shopping, you?
Wally: Watching re-runs of Chuck on demand.
E-ve: You loser
E-ve: My boyfriend is a nerd :)
Wally: Yes he is :)
(love you E-ve)

I should clarify, there was only one Chuck episode on demand, so it shouldn’t have been plural. I watched the episode of Bones from last week after Chuck season 2 episode 14: Chuck versus the Best Friend.

In other TV related business, I’ve learned today that a once tres popular Canadian rocker is going to the small screen. Remember in Dogma, at the end of the movie when God shows up in a dress and does a cart wheel and acts like a real hippie. That was Alanis doing what our hero K. Smith told her to. Now Alanis is gonna be part of the cast of Weeds. The announcement has come that she will be part of the show for the 5th season and perhaps moving forward into season 6. There’s also a quick note at the bottom of the release that says there may be some tasteful nudity involved. Oh Alanis you’ve grown up so much! I remember watching her on You Can’t Do That On Television when I was a wee lad.

So last night was the much hyped, much anticipated return of AJ Burnett to Toronto. I watched the game from start to finish on Sportsnet and was not disappointed. The crowd was electric, with a reported 43,000 plus in the seats. The game was well played with only one error and one wild inning by AJ. And Roy Halladay was fantastic. The dude just doesn’t budge under pressure. There were story lines coming in about Doc and AJ being friends, rivals, mentor and student and they all made for great media leading up to the game. But once things started there was no doubt who leads his team, who would be the guy people would pick if they had to choose and most of all, who Toronto Blue Jays fans are happiest to have in their uniform. The Blue Jays won the game 5-1 behind Roy’s first complete game of the season and continue to roll.

Just watched the trailer for Disney’s upcoming animated flick, The Princess and the Frog. I’m not sure.

Quick fire

- Some lady in St. Louis found scripts for the upcoming Twilight movies in the trash.

- Game 7, Penguins vs. Caps in Washington tonight.

- Kanye hates Twitter…. What does he know anyway?

- For some reason Zooey Deschanel is on the top searches list for Ask.com

- There’s an awesome game at nbc.com/Chuck where you can see if you qualify to work at the Buy More.

- I’m done for the day.

That’s a wrap.
