Weblog Awards and Other Random Things

First of all, I've never won a weblog award and I think having one under my belt would be really cool. (It's because I'm a loser, is the reason I think that.) If you're so inclined, head over to Weblog Awards 2006 and nominate me for something or other. Here's the categories available - the ones where I think I may fit are in bold, but if you think I fit somewhere else, feel free to nominate me there, too. :-)

• Best Blog (ha! I wish.)
• Best New Blog
• Best Individual Blog
• Best Humor Blog
• Best Comic Strip
• Best Online Community
• Best Liberal Blog (If you'd consider me for this, then you just. don't. get it.)
• Best Conservative Blog
• Best Centrist Blog
• Best Campaign Blog
• Best Media Blog
• Best Technology Blog (my friend Mia at Popgadget should really win this one)
• Best Sports Blog
• Best Military Blog
• Best Law Blog
• Best Business Blog
• Best LGBT Blog
• Best Parenting Blog (not yet! Ack!)
• Best Educational Blog
• Best Science Blog
• Best Medical/Health Issues Blog (perhaps?)
• Best Photo Blog
• Best Culture Blog
• Best Diarist - Granted, I'm an uber-busy medical student and I don't have time to post 8 times per day. Nor do I detail every single facet of my life (because it's boring, y'all. I go to school, I study, I sleep as much as possible, and I see Scott on weekends. That's about it - I try to spruce it up as much as possible for you, though - I don't bore you with the details of my housecleaning or that time I bought new towels.)
• Best Gossip Blog
• Best Music Blog
• Best Podcast
• Best Video Blog
• Video Of The Year

And then there's the Truth-Laid Bear Ecosystem-based categories - I fit into this one:

• Best of the Top 5001 - 6750 Blogs

I'd appreciate a nomination somewhere, if you think I deserve it. :-) Thanks.

On to other stuff - if you didn't see the Glenn Beck special "Exposed: The Extremist Agenda" on Headline News at 7:00 PM EST, then you can still catch it at 9:00 tonight. You need to see this. (Even though I'm still mad at his call screener for rejecting me, I'll look over that in order to recommend watching what he's put together. It's like nothing you've seen before on Islamic extremists.

Mario Lopez is all kinds of cute.

Our GI pathology notes are way too voluminous and at times, make no sense at all. Plus, and I don't mean to be mean here, but our GI professor sounds like a cartoon character (haven't put my finger on which one yet) and his voice, accent, whatever - is quite distracting. Distracting to the point that I think I'll skip class on Friday and spend the time studying GI path on my own. And when I say "on my own", I mean with Christy, because if I didn't study with her, I'd take a 45 minute break every 5 minutes and get about a page and a half read. She makes me keep my game face on.

Scott and I saw Borat last weekend - DANG, that was funny. I went with very high expectations (because I like Ali G and the Borat character anyway) and I wasn't at all disappointed. Although I could have done without the church scene - but then again, I think just about everybody will be offended by this movie at least once. Nevertheless, it's hysterical.

Last night's episode of House - Son of A Coma Guy, with John Larroquette, was one of the best episodes I've seen in a LONG time. It was like the writers pulled off a scab and let us see more of House's character than we've seen before. I was riveted, and that's something that usually doesn't happen to me during a TV show, except when Oprah had that crazy woman as a guest who thinks she can speak "baby". You know - that she can tell when they're trying to tell you they have "lower gas". Anyway, back to House - I have the episode and will upload it to the downloads folder soon.

Since this post is getting too long, I'll tell you about the drunken idiots that woke me up at 3:30AM next time.
