Killian and Liz sitting behind Rachael and her husband
After Killian and Liz’s wedding in June, they honeymooned on Maui and Oahu. When they got back to Chicago Killian told me that they met Rachael Ray. She was at Rum Fire, a restaurant at the Sheraton Waikiki, and was filming a show. I didn’t realize that they were actually filmed for the show.
Tonight Dallas and I were watching Juno on HBO. It was the second time we saw the movie and at the end I could barely restrain Dallas from grabbing the remote and changing the channel. It’s not his fault, though. He has some disease where he has to hold the remote and he has to flip the channels all the time. This time it actually was a good thing when he flipped it to Food Network. We caught the end of a show called Rachael’s Vacation and it was an episode featuring the Rum Fire. Not only can you see Killian and Liz sitting at a table behind Rachael and her husband, but Liz also had a small clip where she described the ambiance of the restaurant. Killian and Liz missed the show tonight so this post is for them.
On Christmas day before we went to dinner at Aunt Gail’s house, Dallas and I went to see the movie Juno. We liked it so much. I laughed a lot, but I also cried at one point near the end. It was just so well written and acted out. And it’s not just me that thinks so. Juno has been nominated for four Academy Awards.
Music was an integral part in the movie, so when the soundtrack came out I bought it. Kimya Dawson has a bunch of songs on the soundtrack. I listened to the song “Loose Lips” a bunch of times over and over the day I got the soundtrack. If you listen once or twice you won’t be able to stop singing the chorus.
loose lips might sink ships but loose gooses take trips
to san francisco, double dutch disco,
tech tv hottie, do it for scotty
do it for the living and do it for the dead
do it for the monsters under your bed
do it for the teenagers and do it for your mom
broken hearts hurt but they make us strong and
we won’t stop until somebody calls the cops
and even then we’ll start again and just pretend that
nothing ever happened
we won’t stop until somebody calls the cops
and even then we’ll start again and just pretend that
nothing ever happened
we’re just dancing, we’re just hugging,
singing, screaming, kissing, tugging
on the sleeve of how it used to be
how’s it gonna be?
i’ll drop kick russell stover, move into the starting over house
and know matt rouse and jest are watching me achieve my dreams
and we’ll pray, all damn day, every day,
that all this shit our president has got us in will go away
while we strive to figure out a way we can survive
these trying times without losing our minds
so if you wanna burn yourself remember that I LOVE YOU
and if you wanna cut yourself remember that I LOVE YOU
and if you wanna kill yourself remember that I LOVE YOU
call me up before your dead, we can make some plans instead
send me an IM, i’ll be your friend
shysters live from scheme to scheme and my 4th quarter pipe dreams
are seeming more and more worth fighting for
so i’ll curate some situations, make my job a big vacation
and i’ll say FUCK BUSH AND FUCK THIS WAR
my war paint is sharpie ink and i’ll show you how much my shit stinks
and ask you what you think because your thoughts and words are powerful
they think we’re disposable, well both my thumbs opposable
are spelled out on a double word and triple letter score
we won’t stop until somebody calls the cops
and even then we’ll start again and just pretend that
nothing ever happened
we won’t stop until somebody calls the cops
and even then we’ll start again and just pretend that
nothing ever happened
we’re just dancing, we’re just hugging,
singing, screaming, kissing, tugging
on the sleeve of how it used to be
