Things I've been meaning to say

Thank You! To everyone who has written emails, or MySpace comments or Amazon or BN.com reviews about how much you’ve liked the book. You guys rock!

Diana Peterfreund was totally right when she said Working Girl was a great example of chick lit. In fact, I can think of a lot of pre-Bridget chick lit movies, Baby Boom, Funny Face, Sabrina, Private Benjamin, Moonstruck… The list could go on and on.

Unlike a lot of TV shows, I think Veronica Mars will actually be better in a college setting. (And if there are any people out there who haven’t given Veronica Mars a try yet, then…well…I’m washing my hands of you.)

It’s way freaking hot.

I wrote a scene today for GG2 that I love. Like L-O-V-E love.

My dream job would be a television critic so that I can go to all the Pilot showcases.

Speaking of pilots, the thought of Bradley Whitworth and Matthew Perry on a show together is almost too much for me. Seriously. I need medication.

And finally, I need to go fix my makeup because I’ve been crying all afternoon. That’s right. Actual tears. My mascara is all clumpy and getting in my eye because I made the mistake of watching this trailer for Little Miss Sunshine and then I laughed so hard I couldn’t laugh anymore and I was doing this noiseless-convulsing-crying thing. It wasn’t pretty. But it was pretty darn funny.

(And it will be even funnier if you know and/or are related to my friend Amanda, to whom that last thing actually happened. Twice.)

Well, back to work!

You rock for liking Veronica Mars. I'm obsessed. It's probably not healthy. I still have all of season two saved on Tivo so I can watch them at will.

Have you heard that there will be three mini mysteries this season? It will probably help bring in more viewers. Everyone I tried to get to watch the show last year couldn't follow along. I'd rather a season long mystery though - makes the payoff at the end that much greater. Although Rob has to try harder to hide the "killer" because I figured out his formula already and knew who it was by mid-season.

I haven't even heard of Veronica Mars, but I'm doing some research...pronto!

Little Miss Sunshine looks like it's going to be a painful movie to watch, and by that I mean painfully funny and painfully awkward.

oh, Alyssa, get thee to a DVD rental establishment and/or Netflix right away!

It's the best show on TV right now, I think. In fact, if I could only watch ONE show this coming season, that'd be it.

And we all know that's saying something!
