What a wonderful Wednesday/Thursday combination.

Tonight I’ll be going to see one of my all time favorite bands, Snow Patrol [hear their music here]. A concert that was then wasn’t then was scheduled at the last minute is sold out. But of course… I’ve got tickets, baby. Danielle, Jenna and I leave in a bit to grab dinner and head to what I hope will be one of the greatest concerts I will ever attend.

Tomorrow night… well, that’s obvious as well. Season premiers of My Name Is Earl, The Office, and Grey’s Anatomy. Six Degrees is on as well. This is a substitute for all you lonely hearts who for some reason won’t switch over to NBC for the best comedy hour since the days of Seinfeld.

Oh what a glorious one-two weekday combination.

For those of you who don’t recognize the Snow Patrol name, you’ll recognize the music. Below is the Grey’s Anatomy music video as set to “Chasing Cars.”

When you drive 2,600+ miles you vist a lot of gas stations. Which mean that you buy a lot of junk food that you don’t really need… but you really want.

Question:

What are the best snacks and food that go best with a road trip?

To answer your questions:

Yes – American Idol tryouts were in Seattle yesterday.

No – I didn’t tryout.

I (currently) still have no desire to do it… for hundreds of reasons. The main one being I came to Seattle to be a stripper… not a singer.

I know you’re getting sick of “OMG!!! The Office is almost here!” But you’re just going to have to get used to it

Hey… I could always resort to talking about Laguna Beach.

Since all these new fall shows and episodes are debuting in full force.

Question:

If you could head to your favorite chair right now and turn on the television, what TV show would you watch epidodes of over and over for the remainder of the day?

While it will ever quite be “home”… I’m definitely beginning to feel more at home in the Emerald City. Jenna, Danielle, and I are still individually working our way through Grey’s Anatomy Season 2. Robert acts as though he’s just watching cause we are… but he’s slowly getting hooked. We’ll compare notes throughout the day as to locations in the show that we pass throughout Seattle. Seeing as most are within a few blocks of our house, there’s plenty of “hey, you know that scene where George is walking on the wall and he’s talking to Meredith” talk.

It’s funny. We’re a little goobie. Kiss our butts.

Even without the top-ranked QB in the nation (he’s out for the rest of the year with ACL issues) the Mississippi College Choctaws stunned #21 Texas Lutheran on Saturday with a 28-21 win.

Check out this pop by defensive back Chris Proctor, as well as the other photos.

The Choctaws had an 80-yard run for touchdown and a 79-yard punt return for a touchdown on the day. I don’t want to speak too soon, but happy times are here again.

MC plays McMurry (2-1) next week in our first home game. By the way… Millsaps is 0-3.

UPDATE: They’re not in the top 25, but they did get a few votes.

Brash mayor of Jackson, Miss., indicted

Snyder has more on Melton’s antics since he’s taken office. I used to like Melton… but he’s gone a little wacko on us.

Deadspin points us out to the most freakish football pep talk I’ve ever seen.

Seriously… just watch this whole thing.

It’s been a rough two weeks for Mississippi State fans on the field and on this blog. Therefore, in an effort to “show the love” to my many Bulldog friends, I thought I’d post a video chock full of 25 years of MState football highlights.

…the “Snow Bowl” was still my favorite State game ever, by the way.

Answering another from the “Stack-O-Questions” I will textually introduce you to my roommates and new found friends.

I’ll tell you more about the actual house at a later date.

Matthew : Matthew owns the house. He’s 27 and works in Seattle, Portland, and Spokane for Axis, a dental supply company. He hails from Northern California, Orange County, and San Diego. He attended the University of San Diego and lives downstairs.

Robert : Robert is a bio chemist, er somthing along those lines. Basically, he’s really smart but is the furthest thing from a bio-nerd. He attended Baylor and has a doctorate from UT Austin. He hails from Plano, Austin, and New York City. Robert and I live on the main level and share a bathroom.

Danielle : Danielle is Matthew’s sister. She’s 24 and lives upstairs. She studied biology at Chapman University in California. Right now she works at a pricey new restaurant on Mercer Island, however, she will be heading to nursing school within the next few months.

The Back House – We have a smaller “cottage” behind the main house.

Jenna : Jenna is Matthew’s other sister. She’s 22, went to photography school for 3 years and she’s quite good. Many of her works grace the walls of our house. She works at the same restaurant as Danielle.

Monica : Monica works for port/shipping company. Unfortunately I don’t know too much about her because we’ve only been able to talk once.

This ref is awful… she actually counts it.

These are some “The More You Know” spoofs from the cast of The Office from April Fools Day.

Just one more week, folks.

Just in case your weather is a little gloomy like it is here today (I spoke too soon) the second seasons of Grey’s Anatomy and The Office were released yesterday on DVD.

Danielle, Jenna and I started Grey’s last night, knocking-off two episodes… only 25 more to go… geeez.

Do yourself a huuuge favor if you haven’t yet seen The Office and pick up season two as soon as possible. You’ll laugh yourself silly all weekend.

Get to know both these shows as I’m sure they will be included in many of our Thursday night entertainment packages throughout this year.
