big brother is messing with my mind.
what i'm loving about this season of big brother is that i don't particularly like any one person. in fact, my emotional investment purely revolves around varying degrees of dislike. i think every single person left in the house has been on my sh*t list at least once so far this season, so my motivation for whomever i want nominated/evicted etc. is all motivated by not liking one person less than i don't like another person.
for example! at many points throughout the season, i've totally been over dick. but then, the dustin/amber/jameka alliance became so obnoxious that if it didn't break up soon, i was going to vomit all over myself. therefore, dick became the anti-hero and when he won POV, i LEPT out of my seat and did some weird arm-pumping motions that, when interpreted, meant "YESSSSS."
ok, and now that dustin has been evicted, i'm all of a sudden noticing that i WANT eric to win HoH, because suddenly he's at the bottom of my least-liked list. but normally, eric's weird twitching and weaseling totally eeks me out. but now? i kind of want to see him and jess (whom i COULDN'T STAND for like, the first two weeks) hook it up, you know? (you totally do too)
i feel sort of crazy when i watch it. which, of course, i like. but i have to admit, my addiction is definitely a problem. i'm almost embarrassed to admit to my co-workers that i maybe, possibly watch 12 hours of BB footage a week. i wish i was lying. but even stranger is my need to tell people about my problem. it's almost like i'm proud of the fact that i see more hours of BB8 than i see of the sun.
but don't kid yourself. i won't be checking into BB8aholics anonymous anytime soon.
it feels good to be bad.

heidi montag can "sing"?
weirdly and unexpectedly, i found myself listening to the debut single from heidi (from the hills) (featuring spencer (p)ratt rapping)
here's a little summary of how that all turned out
ruby: kiss premieres heidi's first single
tenna: HA! I heard that this morning!!!
ruby: ahh ahahah
ruby: i liked it despite myself (in spite of myself?)
tenna: are you rocking out to it over it there>
ruby: a little bit
ruby: boydddyyyyy lannnnguuuuageeee
tenna: it is super catchy
tenna: especially when Spencer sees the pearl, Heidi, his girl
ruby: oh no he didn't
tenna: oh, yes, yes he did
anyway, i found it on perezhilton.com this morning, but this afternoon, here comes the disclamer (VIA perezhilton.com)
The song we posted earlier this morning is not Heidi Montag’s first single, sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com.
The Hills star is furious that Ryan Seacrest played the song on his radio show Thursday morning and she has been crying all morning.
But, it’s not Ryan’s fault, sources tell us.
“The record company leaked the track,” an insider reveals. “Spencer and Heidi were just having fun in the studio and working on songs. That was not meant to be released. Spencer would never rap on Heidi’s first single.”
Either way, this will get the buxom blonde some attention.
With the right producers, she could churn out some hot pop tunes.
I'm surprised i'm even admitting i listened to it, rocked out a little to it and, NOW? i'm "following the saga."
I need some help, people.
ps. i do think it's fun and catchy.
pps. i know.

effervescent. sweet.
so i got this email from my sister-in-law the other day:
The Game is ON.
Describe ME in one (1) word....just one single word. Send it to me - and to me only. Then send this message to all your friends and see how many strange & interesting things they say about you. This is really fun! Here's how:
1. Hit the reply key and send me my one word.
2. Then return to this message and forward it to your friends (including me) and see what people say about you when limited to one word!!
so, naturally, i sent it to everyone i thought would respond with a positive word. i know! smart! weirdly enough, two people responded with "effervescent" and one person used "refreshing." initially i thought wow -- pretty awesome, right? i'm like a SOFT DRINK, baby. but then i looked up effervescent and now i'm wondering, really, which definition did they ACTUALLY mean to use..
was it:
1.effervescing; bubbling.
OR
2. vivacious; gay; lively; sparkling.
and it if it was #1, which definition of "effervesce" do i assume...
1. To emit small bubbles of gas, as a carbonated or fermenting liquid. .
2. To escape from a liquid as bubbles; bubble up.
3. To show high spirits or animation.
so i'm hoping they meant that i "show high spirits or animation," but now i'm worried....
OR MAYBE:
marked by high spirits or excitement; "his fertile effervescent mind"; "scintillating personality"; "a row of sparkly cheerleaders" .......
whatever. i think too much. (and apparently? bubble a lot)

Costume Watch: Early Halloween Trends
By Erik Gunther
Fri, August 10, 2007, 8:06 pm PDT
To plan the proper costume for Halloween, you need to get an early jump. Anyone dude can buy a pirate costume and any chick can throw together a fairy costume by October 31. But not you. You want something trendy, unique, and in tune with the times.
Halloween devotees are already busy searching on the outfits you'll spy around the punch bowl on All Hallow's Eve. In that ghoulish spirit, we checked out the Search data for the hottest new costume ideas. It's only August, but here are the top 20...
- Hannah Montana Costume
- Spartan 300 Costume
- High School Musical Costumes
- Transformers Costumes
- Optimus Prime Costumes
- Naruto Costumes
- Hairspray Costumes
- Venom Costume
- Halo Master Chief Costume
- Underdog Costume
- Black Spider-Man Costume
- Hermione Costume
- Ghost Rider Costume
- Bellatrix Lestrange Costume
- Queen Gorgo Costume
- Murloc Costumes
- Leonidas Costume
- World of Warcraft Costumes
- Elizabeth Swann Costume
- Sharpay Costume
Final notes on early costume trends...
—Our list is dominated by movie-inspired get-ups. But "300" rules all. Expect to see half of Sparta marching to your doorstep in search of candy.
—Popular video game World of Warcraft made its presence felt at #16 and #18.
—Disney continues its stranglehold on the hearts and minds of the nation's youth. After last year's frilly princesses and creepy Jack Sparrows are packed away, here come High School Musical and Hannah Montana for even more dress-up inspiration.
yeah yeah yeah, you're welcome.
