Is it just me

Or did Katy Perry look like she was wearing an adult diaper last night on American Idol?

Tiff's Tips On Life

If you want to make a comment at the meeting on Sunday and your comment happens to contain information about doggy poo (ie how Paul compared the things of God and things of the world and he said everything else was "refuse" or as the KJ Bible puts it, "dung," meaning dog dung) it's best to think of an appropriate word for poo so there isn't an awkward pause before blurting out "doggy doody". I'm just saying...

Star Trek vs Wolverine

OK - they both have had huge media buzz, they both have state-of-the-art special effects and they both have origin stories. Who will win the battle of the blockbusters? So far, it looks like Trek is going to take it hands down. What do I think? Well, I must say, I'm a bit torn. Star Trek has a better story line that steers it away from the old Trek without compromising the essense of the a Star Trek movie, but the one thing it doesn't have that the new X-Men movie has is Hugh Jackman. Quite frankly, I may be out of my Vulcan mind, but the whole Wolverine movie could have consisted of Mr. Jackman sitting silently in a chair and I still would have seen it.

Geek?

So does the fact that I am seeing the first showing of the new Star Trek tonight after meeting make me a geek? Well, if it does, at least I'm not alone.

Tiff's Random Thought of the Day

Sadly, the brilliant epiphanies I have late at night when I'm acutely sleep-deprived are not the inventive, clever, life altering ideas I thought they were after I've attained an adequate amount of slumber.

Ice Cream and Firefighters

Ice cream and firefighters - what an awesome combination! Next Wednesday, April 29th Baskin Robbins is having a 31 cent scoop night. OK, it's not free like this week's Ben & Jerry's soiree was, but BR is making a $100,000 donation to the National Volunteer Fire Council (NVFC)National Junior Firefighter Program. For the details, click here. Ice cream and firefighters - you just can't go wrong on this one, ladies!

Free Cone Day

Yesterday was "Free Cone Day" at Ben & Jerry's and an awesome sister from Yesler was kind enough to send an email informing me of this special day. Throwing caution and a dairy intolerance/allergy to the wind, I had me a cone. Coconut - so yummy! Even with the gastrointestinal issues later on, it was totally worth it!

Late Afternoon T

Location: Work

Listening to: Brandi Carlile's "The Story"

Mood: Generally stuffy - my office is hot and I'm congested. I know it's only barely just begun, but I can't wait for Spring to end.

Late Afternoon T

Location: Work, but getting ready to leave soon for Bellevue where I will be attending a Search and Rescue unit meeting.

Listening to: Adam Lambert's version of Tears For Fears, "Mad World." I clicked on the link from C's blog, although if you want to see it now, click here. I never had really gotten into AI much before, but this Adam dude has an amazing voice - it's not much of a competition if you go by talent alone.

Mood: A bit excited about joining SAR - it should be a good outlet for this trauma junkie. =)

There's just something almost magical about whipped cream.

Tiff's Tips On Life

Don't watch multiple episodes of Mystery Diagnosis late at night when you are sick and have a high fever, because invariably you will think you have every disease they showcase.

Tiff's Tips

I don't generally recommend movies unless it's maybe a rated G kids film because I know that consciences vary and I don't want to offend or stumble anyone. So, taking that into account, I am not recommending this movie - I'm just making a suggestion if you do see this one. If you go to see Duplicity, there is a lot going on in this film, in fact, sometimes the screen splits into four different scenes and there are a lot of plot twists and turns, so if at all possible, I would recommend not getting up to go to the bathroom, because if you do, you probably will be totally lost when you get back.
