Please stop kind of having my face. Thank you.

Blurry post-show shot with Ralph Reed on the left and Steve Murphy on the right which is the reverse of how they feel politically.

I’m on Hannity tonight at 9pm ET on Fox News so please watch that and then perhaps love or hate me and then come here and join in the Alison Rosen Live Show (at 10pm ET) which is probably the most fun thing you could imagine times a zillion.

As you guys know, tomorrow is another live Ustream chat (at 10pm EST/7pm PST). I couldn’t be more excited if I’d had all my internal organs removed and replaced with butterflies. In fact, I think I might do that. Instead of being an organ donor I’ll be an organ trader. Or an organ exchanger. Or someone who’s using an organ bartering system. But not an organ traitor. I would never betray my organs.

You can RSVP here. Do it!!!!!!

Last time some of you suggested we decide on some topics ahead of time. I think that’s a fabulous suggestion so why don’t you guys let me know what you think we should talk about? What’s on your minds?

We get an extra hour tomorrow right? If not, my calendar is lying to me and I’m going to have to give it a stern talking to.

Anyway, I can’t figure out what to do with my extra  hour! I could use it right away on something I wouldn’t normally do with my time, like work, or I could save it for a rainy day or maybe I should just put in the bank where it’ll accrue a few seconds every year and by the time I retire it’ll be about an hour and two minutes?

What are you guys going to do with yours?

Hey you guys. Last night’s live Ustream broadcast was super fun so if you missed it you are likely kicking yourself as well you should. Allow me to recap? First of all, it was amazing and I had a live in studio audience of stuffed animals as well as a live internet audience that was much larger than I’d expected. At times there were hundreds of people watching live at the same time and 4165 unique views for the broadcast. I think that’s pretty high but I’m not super versed in all this so if that number isn’t impressive do me a favor and quadruple it and then tell all your friends. (Just kidding. OR AM I?) (I am.)

We chatted with the lovely Diana Falzone who is hosting a Halloween party at Scores which is a strip club. We also named some inanimate objects including my portable desk fan. (We didn’t come to a consensus but Fanny and Blade were in the lead.) We chatted about my shirts, which also have names, and we talked about animals and animal names. We also talked about music and movies and we kicked some people out of the chat room which was pretty fun.

I was overjoyed to see familiar faces in the chat room and to meet all the new people.

Also, we learned how to say goodbye in Dutch. Goede Avond!

And I almost forgot: We were officially stumped by a Facts of Life trivia question but someone in the chat room knew the answer! That was fun. Do keep those questions coming.

If I had more time right now I would make little highlights of all the moments mentioned above however I don’t have that time right now but you can see everything in slightly less curated form here: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/alison-rosen-live-show

Hey you guys,

I’m working on a book proposal right now so I’m severely limiting my access to fun—I had to put Chutes & Ladders in the freezer and I flushed my Mad Libs—which is why I haven’t been blogging as often as I usually do and also why my Daily Alisons have been even less daily than their usual slightly-less-than-dailyness. And then there’s the live Ustream show about which I have two thoughts. 1) I really need to set a schedule for that fucker and stick to it. 2) Instead of naming it The Alison Rosen Live Show I should have named it Daily Alison Live. I tend to have the second thought when I’m showering. In fact I ALWAYS have that thought while I’m showering which means I have it at least a couple times a week.

Just kidding. I shower daily even though right now I have one of those irritating shower liners that sticks to me when  I’m taking a shower, leaving me needing to shower after I shower. “Get off me, you clingy needy bitch!” I usually yell while showering. It’s relaxing.

So but anyway I miss you guys so I don’t think I’ll be able to stay away for much longer. Think of you guys as me in a shower and me as that shower curtain liner.

And now a question: Do you guys listen to music when you’re working and if so what do you listen to?

This story from the Post about lunch bags with mold effect on them to prevent coworkers stealing your stuff from the office fridge makes me so happy I no longer work in an office. I’d all but wiped from my memory that particular aspect of office life—the angry emails about purloined yogurt and MIA roast beef sandwiches.

Side note: Am I the only person who stared at the bag Paul grabbed from the refrigerator last night on Mad Men, trying to figure out whose name was written on it? I rewound three times and finally decided it said Paul, though the P looked like an S. Maybe his late night alter ego is named Saul.

Another side note: let’s just say you had a big hunk of cheese in the bag, would the faux mold still be a deterrent?

Another side note (this blog post is a hexagon, methinks): what are some good names for faux mold? fun mold? silly mold? fool’s mold?

Another side note: I’m procrastinating

Another side note: Ok so I was ambitious when I said hexagon.
