I have never really been a tennis fan but the last time I was in Vegas I decided to bet on the Australian Open. My bet was placed on looks alone and, well, I won. And since then I am basically in love with Rafael Nadal?
Verdasco isn't too bad either, huh?
At this point I can't help but wonder who WOULDN'T be a tennis fan?!
Off to Sin City tomorrow. Couldn't come at a better time except I have approximately one thousand things to do before my flight tomorrow/I am going to be on the plane during the delayed continuance of the Phillies game (gah!). Friends, family, Criss Angel (lolz), gambling, shopping, spas, excessive amounts of drinking, the Grand Canyon?, oh and how could I forget... HALLLLOWEEEEEINERRRR in Vegas V2.0! Can't wait to see a million Palin and Joker costumes (still mad there will be no Lauren Pilla as Heath Ledger as the Joker, but whatever). Everyone be saaafe, have fun, don't have a lame cat costume, and most of all, eat as many of these as humanly possible.
And because I crack myself up oh so very much, you all should be aware that Greg Dobbs IS the new black:
Cole 'the Kitten' Hamels, Bane Victorino/Meerkat Victorino, Teddy Bear Howard, Jason 'Dragon' Werth and Pat Burrell as Ron Jeremy coming soon... LETS GO PHILLIES!
Last night was SERIOUSLY more amazing than I ever could have hoped. While seeming very stressful in the beginning -- having to switch between the Project Runway finale and the PHILLIES against the Dodgers when the series was 3-1, come on! But anyway, it ended up AMAZING and everything went precisely how I wanted so, YAY.
The INCREDIBLE Philadelphia Phillies are GOING TO THE WORLD SERIES. Boo on you, Manny and Joe Torre! I will DIE if I get to got to a World Series game. Perhaps I will take this awesome offer into serious consideration. Uhh, lolz? But seriously, FUCK TAMPA LET'S GO PHILLIES!!! I, along with the rest of Philadelphia, are not going to be normal humans until this series is over... I apologize ahead of time.
And then there was Project Runway. Now, after falling in love with (the dreaded) Kenley's wedding dress, I began to worry that I might fall in love with her collection. However, those fears were quickly cast aside when I saw it and everything either a) sucked (Betsey Johnson clearance rack anyone?), b) ripped off of Balenciaga (you and I are on the exact same page, Nina), or c) ripped off of Alexander McQueen. Oh, yes Kenley, we know, you don't "look" at other designers. First of all, that is a blatant lie because I highly doubt it was just coincidence that you put out rip-offs of two of the most important designers in the world right now less than a year after they did it. But, if you really do not... YOU NEED TO. Throughout history, every important artist/designer/writer has not only looked at but learned from and collaborated with other important artists of their time. Tim was right when he said she needs a fashion history course. However, there was one non-rip-off that I LOVED:
Next was Korto who absolutely SHOCKED me in such a good way. Her line was so fun and original yet totally wearable. Seriously, give me these now:
I almost got torn between wanting her and Leanne to win because I LOVED her collection so much... however Leanne had been a consistent favorite of mine throughout the entire season and her collection was absolutely bringing fashion to a new level. It wasn't just "original" but her collection has seriously NEVER been seen before and I loved it! Love you, you fabulous little bunny!
Everyone's faaaavorite ~hockey mom~ getting intensely booed while dropping the first puck at the Flyers game. (Uhh, who agreed that she could do this anyway?)
Phillies are 2-0 in the NLCS over the Dodgers. #1. Fuck Manny Ramirez. #2. Moyer, pleeeeeease do not fuck it up tonight. #3. Cole Hamels, I am glad you exist...
I can't really pay attention to hockey (although I am super excited for it) or football (even though the Eagles actually won today!) until baseball is over... and with the Sillies getting closer and closer to the World Series, it gets more and more exciting/nerve wracking by the day! I cannot even IMAGINE what this city will be like if they make it... I really hope I get to find out!
