Liar liar pants on fire! Yeah, so I lied, the last update wasn't my last before moving. Turns out I'm a lot more bored than I thought I would be. There is only so much packing one can do before getting burnt out. Today may be the record for the earliest morning update EVA. It's 9 a.m, I should be soundly sleeping, dreaming about Jennifer Garner. But no, I'm awake. I had to drop my step-dad off at the car place/shop/thing. I won't get into that though, it's too early in the morning for rage. This week has actually been full of early mornings. We're having the house painted and they start at 8, which normally wouldn't disturb me, but the B has taken it upon himself to bark/howl at every slight little noise he hears. It's cute for the first minute, then I'm yelling at the boy.

MOVE UPDATE: My packing is coming along nicely. The cardboard Stonehenge is rising with each box. Today is the official "one week away" mark. Since my last update my terror has subsided a bit. Apparently the more I stay in the house the more I desire to get the fuck out. I don't care about a lot of shit anymore. I don't care if the sink gets dirty (sorry mom), I don't care if I tear the driveway up, I don't care if my dog pisses and shits on the deck (he does), I don't care about the strange odor coming from the refrigerator, I don't care that my shower ceiling is chipping off. I'm ready to go! My fabulous sister has set up the cable person for the day we move - have you ever heard of such a wonderful thing as cable and internet READY the day you move in?! I am hoping to have an update soon after the move. I'm sure there will be stories to tell.

A historical event has occurred this week. An event sure to make the history books of future generations, when the right to marry whomever we choose is legal in all 50 states (if only in a dream). Starting this past Monday, Massachusetts began LEGALLY marrying gays and lesbians. What an absolute victory for civil rights! Of course this monumental occasion has sparked our narrowly elected president to strengthen his call for a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage. But this week, we're winning the war. I just wrote a scathing diatribe on Bush following the last sentence, but I deleted it. I don't want this to be about him and his shady beliefs. This week has been about rising from social oppression and embracing a right so fundamental to humanity that no one, NO ONE, should be denied.

ALIAS NEWS: Sadly, Alias is being held over till mid season next fall. The fourth season will not debut until January 2005. The fat cats at ABC have decided to replace it's Sunday time slot with a cheesy, Knots Landing-ish, primetime soap opera. I have been painfully loyal to this show, to the network. My family and I watched the horrible lead-in (10-8) because we wanted to support ABC. But how are they rewarding us? By denying us of the only good thing about ABC - Alias.

CSI: NEW YORK: Awesome, awesome, and more awesome. I watched the spin-off episode of CSI: Miami to the new CSI: New York, and it was fantastic. Gary Sinise, of Lieutenant Dan fame, was like a mix of all the great things about Gil Grissom with the compassion of Horatio Caine. (If you have no idea who I'm talking about you should start watching CSI) And Melina Kanakaredes, formerly of Providence (yes, I watched that show), gave off the same smart sexiness as Marg Helgenberger. And I'm a sucker for good looking women with curly hair, which is pretty much the only reason I watched Providence in the first place. The new CSI: NY was given this gritty darkness that CSI and CSI: Miami don't have. It was really reflective of the city of New York. Vegas is shot with a lot of color, like the lights on the strip. And Miami is given a really sunny appearance because of the beach. So it seems natural that New York would be shot more raw and dark. I can't wait for it's fall debut!

AMERICAN IDOL: Finally, Jasmine Trias and her HORRID voice is off the show. I was shocked and appalled that she made it to the final three. The girl shouldn't of even made the top 10 in my opinion. I truly believe something fishy is going on over there. There is NO WAY she should of made the top 3, absolutely positively no way! The girl can't sing people! She's like the female John Stevens. My favorite contestant is Fantasia, the girl has it all. I've been pulling for her since day one. There is something that bothers me about Diana DeGarmo. My cousin Denise pointed out that she looks like a Monchhichi (she totally does, LINK), but there is something else that bugs me that I can't place. Anyway...GO FANTASIA!!!
