A day at the office

Jim and Pam!



Recently started watching some repeats of The Office (american as opposed to the uk) and I can't get enough of it. It's funny and sooo cute. Steve Carrel is hilarious and the Jim/Pam romance is adorable. There's not much on TV lately so it's good when I find something new!

I really can't get over this Heath Ledger thing.

It's so sad, and unexpected.










They played this song on the radio this morning. Emotional to say the least. I feel terrible for his family and his little daughter and ex, I hope that Tmz and all those websites with no morals leave them alone at this time... Don't think that's going to happen though.

Heath Ledger, dead?
I'm in disbelief.

Hilarious.



So the Oscar noms came out today. Two irish nods, yay! Glen Hansard for best song and Saoirse Ronan for Best Supporting Actress. Go us.
Brit is getting crazier by the day, but apparently now she's realised that her pap boyfriend is using her, about 2 months after everyone else knew.
Celebs are crazy crazy people.

Naive is Evian, spelled backwards

Too tired to write and I know that if I do, I'll end up ranting about work (which is crazy right now) so I'll leave you with some of my currents!

Currently watching















And I'm addicted!

Current song.... I listen to this every morning now, it wakes me up (and caffeine helps too)


Current film.... I love this sooooo much



And last but not least...

Current reads:

Book on the bus













Book before bed

I saw PS I love you last night. I didn't cry. Maybe if I wasn't an irish person looking at it and thinking how bad the accents were, or why everything was green and farmerey..... I would have liked it. They even managed to get the name of my town in too, very exciting. Gerard Butler is amazing.... looking. His accent however, terrible. Denny Duquette was in it! It was weird to see him without wires. Last year when they were filming it, I bumped into him on the street! But I had only seen a few episodes of Grey's then and wasn't that familiar with his character!

I'm waiting for my copy of 'Can't Buy Me Love' to arrive... If you haven't seen it, you're in for a treat.
The prime example that some people really do get better with age.

Cry for help

You'd need to be under a rock to have not heard about Britney Spears latest antics. Seeing the papparazi chasing the the ambulance she was in, it's understandable why she's so messed up. I hope this is a turnaround for her and she gets the help she needs. Poor Brit.

Completely unrelated, but I can't get enough of Iron and Wine lately!

My albums of 07

Arcade Fire - Neon Bible
I was waiting quite some time for this one and it didn't disappoint. Best seen live.

LCD Soundsystem - Sound Of Silver
I listen to it's eponymous predecessor constantly so I was surprised when I enjoyed it as much. Great for Dancing

Bright Eyes - Cassadaga
Countryish, but cool

Band Of Horses - Cease To Begin
Love this band so much. Not as great as their debut but loved it nonetheless

The National - Boxer
Alt record of the year in my eyes

Rilo Kiley - Under The Blacklight
This one took a few listens before I liked it, but now it's on repeat, all the time.

Justice - †
Fabulous. Believe the Hype.

Radiohead - In Rainbows
Cannot stop listening to Reckoner

Honorable mentions include:
Rufus Wainwright-Release The Stars, Daft Punk-Alive 2007, Klaxons-Myths Of The Near Future, Britney Spears-Blackout, Kings of Leon-Because Of The Times, Jamie T-Panic Prevention, Bloc Party-A Weekend In The City.
