Tomorrow I’ll be on Red Eye with Crispin Glover and Frangela! It’s like the creepy weirdo version of the less creepy weirdo 11pm Saturday show! As a side note: I had a friend in college who looked just like Crispin Glover and he used to do the “get your damn hands off her” speech to entertain me and I’d make him do it over and over and I’d squeal with delight and usually clap my hands because I’m like a child when someone does something that entertains me and lets me make them do it over and over. Somehow I bet the real Crispin Glover would be less accommodating. Hm.

What the cluck
Not asking for it
I have a PETA calendar hanging in my kitchen which, to be honest, has less to do with my feelings about PETA than my needing a free calendar. On each day it lists an animal rights landmark, like 50 muskrats liberated or taunting geckos outlawed. On October 18, “a chicken-roping contest was canceled, 2004.” But I keep thinking it says “chicken-raping.” Each time I see it, even though I’ve now seen it a number of times, I misread it. For nearly one month I’ve been having the exact same series of thoughts upon seeing this calendar: “Chicken-raping contest canceled. Wow, chicken-raping? A contest? There really are some sick people in this world. it’s a good thing PETA got that canceled. I can get behind that… oh wait, chicken-roping!”
Showing off my acting chops
Get this, people: my vision is 20/20 and I wasn’t really talking to Rupert! I was pretending!

The technical term is musophobia
Caters to the modern mouse.
If you’re looking for a delightful place to go with ample seating, delicious food and mice scurrying around the patio, I recommend The Maritime Hotel. I was just there and while those in my party were of a more “Hey, it’s New York, they’re everywhere” kind of mindset, I’m of a more “holy crap, there’s mice here they’re going to crawl up my leg and then attack me even though that doesn’t make sense in any way, hence the term ‘phobia'” mindset. Incidentally, one of the guys in my party recently moved here from Chicago, so what does he really know when it comes to this city and our rodents? He knows about wind and pizza. And the White Sox. (Just kidding, Chicago! I’m sure you’re a lovely city!)
Pictures from last week's Red Eye
And here’s one from the week before. Now I’m officially wondering what the hell is over to my right, which is interesting since I may or may not be questioning someone tomorrow night during body language about a sideways-esque gesture. Hm.
Update: I'll be doing another body language segment tomorrow on Red Eye
Yay!
My parents would be so proud
Thanks to Chris M for tipping me off to this very special Red Eye moment from June or so.
