Belated Friday Five:

1. What was the last TV show you watched?
At the gym tonight I caught the premiere of "My Big Fat Greek Life". Confession: I never saw the movie the show is based on. I meant to, and up til tonight I was planning on renting it. But given how dumb the show looked (even with no sound), I can't say I'm eager to run out to Blockbuster and pick it up. (And has anybody else noticed that Nia Vardolos has seriously gone orange?)

2. What was the last thing you complained about and what was the problem?
It's been raining here for two weeks straight and I've been complaining about it constantly. Yeah, yeah, we've had a drought for the past year so I shouldn't bitch, we need the rain, yadda yadda yadda... but it sucks. Especially when you don't have a clothes dryer and your ability to have clean laundry depends on nice sunny days to dry things on the line. Needless to say, I'm now on a first-name basis with the Chinese laundry lady around the corner.

3. Who was the last person you complimented and what did you say?
It was the Snook. I told him he smelled like a baby this morning. I mean, in a good way. It's weird. I know all his fragrances: laundry detergent, soap, shampoo, aftershave... and somehow it all mixes up with his weird little pheromones and ends up smelling like the top of a baby's head.

4. What was the last thing you threw away?
The foil wrapper from a chocolate Easter rabbit. I obtained it by nefarious means, actually. It was on my desk at work as a present from our "Social Club", but I quit the Social Club three months ago. I even checked my paystubs and I definitely haven't been paying the $8/month fee. They must not have gotten the memo though. Don't bother telling me to confess. I've already eaten the evidence. :)

5. What was the last website (besides this one) that you visited?
Glitter. I'm on there a lot lately.

The sitcom does not compare to the movie at all. I can't stand watching it, but the movie is so worth renting. Honest.

I agree. The movie kind of makes you feel @ home. Crazy loud family...sound familiar? :)

Yeah, the movie was alright. It's kind of fluff: not great cinema, not really that deep, but entertaining. The movie had kind of a lot of sitcom qualities, except it was longer. They used up all their good sitcom material in the movie I guess, cause every says the show is not good at all.
