1. I know they're two very different, very talented actresses, but I constantly mix up Glenn Close and Meryl Streep. See also: Alligators and crocodiles.
2. I occasionally put soy sauce on macaroni and cheese. I have no idea where I picked this up. College? I'm going to assume college.
3. I hate The Colbert Report.
4. Despite my best efforts, I don't full grasp all the facets of the Health Care Reform debate, because IT KEEPS CHANGING EVERY DAY, MY GOD, and I will pay someone 50 Schrute Bucks to explain it to me as you would to a small child. I'm kind of betting (hoping?) no one completely understands it.
5. I--ugh, GROSS--totally have a secret and disturbing crush on The Situation after seeing him in this video.
The REAL Situation (Feat. MTV Jersey Shore's The Situation, Snooki, and Pauly D) - watch more funny videos
6. I do not fully hate the "Gilly" sketches on SNL.
7. I am in a feud with a crazy old bat at the train, and I have to tell you, I kind of like it. I've always wanted a nemesis! It makes things interesting, you know?
8. "Eight, eight, I forget what eight is for."
9. I devoted 15 minutes last night to reminiscing about, researching and singing the "Because I Got High" song that was popular for 12 seconds in 2001 after poring through one of my many Old Embarrassing Journals wherein I mentioned said song. (Note: I was in no way high.) (Additional note: I'm pretty sure J wants to kill me, seeing as the song has been lodged in both of our brains now for over 24 hours.)
10. Seriously, HCR. Someone help me. I'm tired of fake-knowingly nodding my head like Joey Tribbiani before he bought that letter "V" encyclopedia volume. You know, at all of the many philosophical and intellectual salons I host. It's a tiring life I lead, you see.
What about you? Confess away!

I mix up those two actresses too, and you get huge props for quoting Violent Femmes. One of my favorite songs from high school.
Even if you are a dirty thief. Should have confessed that shit!
Taco Bell Taco sauce on Mac & Cheese is also quite delicious. And it gets rid of the 400 million extra ones they always give you that you hate to throw away, but don't have any real use for so they just languish in your cabinet waiting for a useful purpose.
Try C-SPAN's health care hub and/or the Prescriptions Blog (http://prescriptions.blogs.nytimes.com/) Both have really good primers on HCR and where congress is and the differences between the House and Senate bills and next steps. Also they both should state why 60 votes are important in the Senate as opposed to the House.
Oh and if you go to the Energy and Commerce website you can see how much each congressional district will get through HCR.
I like CSPAN and the Prescriptions Blog only because they're pretty factual and non-partisan. Anyway, those are good places to start. At some point in your reading you'll figure out why people on both sides are so incensed. But I'll leave that for you to decide for yourself. I have pretty strong opinions based on a variety of things like how congress is really stretching what they believe to be the tenants of the Commerce clause and on abortion and on the public option and Medicare. But I am paid to have an opinion.
And finally, if you are REALLY bored, you can watch the senate now and tomorrow morning. It's actually pretty interesting.
Really, you're not a car carrying member of the Colbert nation?
I often fall asleep trying to figure out if I like the Daily Show or the Report better. Love them both...
I mix up Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino ALWAYS. No idea which is which. I also constantly call a local restaurant, named Deneno's, Deniro's. I know it's wrong as soon as it's out, but it's always out before I realize it's wrong.
And, hmmm, food ... I can put peanut butter on just about anything and be quite pleased about it. And I recently tried a slice of cheddar on apple pie at the urging of a friend -- not as good as ice cream, but definitely tasty.
And like Avitable, I love that you quoted Violent Femmes. I seriously cannot WAIT to see you next summer. I'm going to warm up my laughing muscles starting now.
OH! Also, I think Phil Collins and Danny Devito are one and the same. But I think I don't actually know what Phil Collins looks like -- I just picture Danny Devito when I think of him.
I can't spell neice. Or niece. WHATEVER. I can't spell it. It always looks wrong.
I am physically incapable of only eating until I'm happily full. No, I must continue until I want to die.
I will never see the appeal of Family Guy.
I eat Spahgettio's and Cheetos in the same bowl and LOVE IT.
I hate fruit. Unless it's in pie form. Then I'm on board.
Violent Femmes? Yes! And also mentions of "Because I Got High" when you weren't actually high? Yeah, me too!
I <3 Metalia.
I used to put A-1 on EVERYTHING. And, now this post has me wondering how it might taste on Mac and Cheese.
I can't keep up with the Healthcare Reform debate either...I'm totally lost. And I love that you quoted Violent Femmes. My confession? I don't know who the Kardashians are...really...who are they? I am so old!
Oh, #8. Now you've got me singing it all day!
I. Love. Gilly. So freakishly disturbing, yet absolutely hilarious. Also, do keep me posted on what you find out about HCR.
BECAUSE I got high. Because I got high. Because I got high. Do do do do do...
LOL... Yeah yeah! (Sometimes you the song is just waiting for you to sing it)
I mix up glenn and meryl too. Apparently we're not the only ones. And Phil and Danny.
My current nemesis is the owner of the place I get my eyebrows waxed. I go in, I just want the wax, I do not EVER want to hear her "helpfully" tell me how terrible my complexion is and why. It makes me cry because, DUH, I know. No tip for her.
Now when I go there, her daughter does the waxing and Evil Mother completely ignores/looks through me, even if she's processing my payment, and I glare at her, all "bitch, it is ON." I could just go somewhere else, but dude, there's no nemesis somewhere else.
I hate The Daily Show.
wait. really? You hate the Colbert Report? What about The Daily Show? How do you feel about that?
I mean, first that Leona Lewis song and now this?!?!?!? It's like I don't even know you, Metalia.
I am so crushing on The Situation too!
I eat balsamic vinagrette on my macaroni and cheese.
Who is this Taylor Swift person and can anyone identify her when they see her? Because I know her name. And I see her everywhere. But everytime I say, "Who is this new random blonde person?" and it is always Taylor Swift.
I think that Radiohead is completely overrated. Also, I hate Coldplay.
I cannot pronounce the words rural, horror, or cinnamon.
I always get Judi Dench and Julie Andrews mixed more so when I was little. I love some good bbq sauce on my mac and cheese!
I went to college at Ole Miss (University of Mississippi to anyone not from the south) and Afroman performed several times at local bars. It was AWESOME. Have to go get that on iTunes now...Thanks!
I screw up Meryl and Glenn, too!!!
I love cajun seasoning on mac'n'cheese.
There are several Britney Spears songs I enjoy.
I'd rather eat a brick of cheese than a candy bar.
1. I get Meryl and Glenn mixed up too!
2. I don't hate The Colbert Report, per se, but I don't enjoy it as much as The Daily Show, therefore hardly every watch it.
3. I don't understand the HCR either and am waiting for someone to explain it to me.
4. That clip of the Real Situation made me love him a little more. And I already had a small crush on him. BECAUSE HE WOULD KEEP ME OUT OF ARMS WAY!
OMG, we're like twins. Fraternal, but still. And I don't mix up Meryl and Glenn, because, you know, I have eyes, but otherwise, we're exactly alike.
soy sauce on mac n cheese....I will try this next time. honestly, sounds fab.
I can't say the word "drawer".
And I got into a debate about healthcare reform with my doctor while he was doing my breast exam the other day.
Don't ask.
