shame on you.

nbc.

consider our

long time

extremely loving

unconditional

relationship

over!

and for once

it IS you...not me.

because of this

i am boycotting nbc.

meaning no more watching

the office.

30 rock.

or the bachelor.

{yeah the bachelor...i am...i was a huge fan.}

this isn't my first break-up with a tv station.

i vowed to never watch fox again

when david archuleta didn't

win american idol.

i promised myself i would never watch abc

when pushing daisies {possibly the most beautiful tv show ever}

got cancelled.

and now it's your turn nbc {now known to me as No Body Cares...about you}.

how DARE you

get rid of conan.

and for jay leno?

come on.

but...

{always important to find the silver lining}

word on the street

{street=eonline}

is that conan may be headed over to fox.

except that things between me and fox

didn't end well.

except we did rekindle the flame

thanks to glee.

so i guess it's okay.

that's it.

we're back together.

don't screw up fox.

conan,

you are the wackiest guy ever.  your hair is crazy and your jokes are "coo-coo crazy" {natalie original} but you will always be better than leno, nbc, and the tonight show.  now get out there and make us proud.  team coco for life!

forever yours,

paige.

and nbc...

you suck.

{sorry about that naughty word mom.}

p.s. the "street" also says that the lovely idina menzel

{or miss elfaba, for those wicked-awesome fans}

starting shooting an episode of glee. 

yippie for karma...take that jay leno.

january. go away.

why is this month so

dreary

dirty

  dissatisfying

who misses december already?

i do.

BUT

provo has the cure

to the mid winter blues.

their names?

• in-in-out
• natalie-n-paige
• nick-n-tanner
• oh yeah, and ihop
  

happy january.  

no news is bad news. false.

5 bands.
3 words.
1 e-mail.

that's all it took. 
to completely ruin my week.

not long ago, while visiting here with bfsp, i decided to buy some tickets.  not just any ticket, but a

dashboard concert ticket!

november 11th was the day.  5:30 p.m. was the time.  bfsp's 19th birthday was the celebration.  i couldn't have been more pleased with the purchase. 

my countdown to this long awaited date began.

fast forward to last night. 

10 days to go!
i returned home from work early, much to my satisfaction, and headed straight to my gmail account.  a few e-mails from mom, one from some clothing place, and a message from smith tix. 

"Oh goodie!"

i cheered.

{thinking smith tix was just giving me a little reminder

the wait was about to be over

for my favorite band to

visit me and bfsp

in the o.c.(orem city) at my very own school}

...i was dead wrong.

instead, smith tix was telling me the 3 words i dreaded the most:

dashboard

concert

cancelled

that's all.  nothing to cushion the blow.  nothing to explain why.  nothing to keep my spirits up.  just 3 words.

i was in shock.  bfsp confirmed it {i thought maybe i was having a nightmare, so i had to get a second opinion}.

terrible way to start the week.  the week that was ruined by one e-mail.

...but i had no idea what was in store for the coming 24 hours.

this morning i went to class with one thing on my mind...no more dashboard.  i had that thought until i remembered that i had a math test...and classes to register for...and work...and life in general that took more importance.  long story short...first week in november has already turned against me. 

until...

i remembered a great quote that  i found on this beauteous, bewitching, brilliant blog once upon a time.  it says:

"the only way to get through life is to

laugh your way through it.

you either have to

laugh

or

cry.

i prefer to laugh.

crying gives me a headache."

majorie pay hinckley.

so i am going to laugh.  even when i want to cry.
