100th POST!

Favourite Paris Hilton quote of the week:

“We don’t really like to go out. We have game night; friends come over and play Monopoly. It’s chill.”

Sure you do.

I love monopoly. I also love the game Risk. Has to be one of the best games out there. World domination, who doesn’t love that? I must say I’m pretty good at it, probably taking it too seriously and often getting in a huff at the end when I am beaten. The game is so uber cool, it often features regularly in my favourite TV shows, Seinfeld and Lost. 

“It’s Risk. It’s a game of world domination being played by two guys who can barely run their own lives.”
Jerry to Kramer and Newman in The Label Maker

I get a bit stuck looking at Lostpedia. I mean it is the most intense Lost fan web site around. Everything from what characters ate to the names of all of the extras that hang around in the background but never get in on the action. It’s funny, they don’t seem to get into much trouble…..well except for last week when a whole chunk of them were murdered. Too bad.

TV  in the bedrooms a problem. Last night I watched a lot of TV. My eyes were heavy with sleep but still I thought, just one more ad break. It’s the total opposite to when you were a kid. Pleading to your parents to let you stay and watch until the next ad break….what I talking about? I don’t once remember my Dad telling me to go to sleep. I’m not saying he was a bad parent, he is the best, I just didn’t have many rules. I find it weird hearing my friends talking about restrictions that were placed on them in childhood. ‘I couldn’t eat this’, ‘we didn’t do that’, blah blah blah.  I say relax anally retentive parents. I didn’t turn out to be a mass murderer…or not that we know of yet, actually I think I turned out all right with my minimal rules upbringing.  I did have a few rules, I was not to say the C word…..not that I would, so un-lady like and vulgar, I also wasn’t allowed to drink Coke…saved my teeth and gee that’s about it. Part of Dads clever parenting was installing the ‘hate to disappoint Dad’ chip in me, so whenever he said ‘Aleish, You have really disappointed me’ I felt shattered so  much so I generally behaved myself.  I like to hang with Dad and he makes me laugh.  There you go. What a happy story.  

I met with my weekend house guest Ted this morning and I gave him the keys to our apartment. He has probably stolen everything and taken off by now. Such a shame.

What a pop culture junket this blog has been, a bit of child hood Leish too!

 I hope you have been informed. Happy weekend.
