Scary mothereffer

gidget: So last night i had a bad dream. I dreamt that i was staying in some hotel and i suddenly noticed snakes under a chair in the lobby. I freaked out and asked the hotel staff why their were snakes in their hotel. I was then told they were snakes from "Snakes on a Plane" and they were staying there for the next couple days. I was terrified and screamed at the staff saying that they should have informed it's customers of the loose snakes. Then i was attempting to leave, and could not find a way out, and more and more snakes were appearing. It was horrible, and i woke up. I do not think i can even see 'Snakes on a Plane' . I am getting chills down my spine just thinking of all the snakes. oh god.

Jem: Ew. Oh God, Gidget...that is, quite possibly, the scariest dream I've ever heard of!!! I hate snakes!!!

gidget: Seriously! The concept of the movie (although, i do see the humour in it) is terrifying. Snakes......on......a....Plane! i can't handle the idea of it. i hope i never accidently see a preview of it, i will have to close my eyes, and hold my hands over my face till the serpents are off the screen.

Jem: Thanks for the comments, Bernie! "Circle of Friends" is one of my favourite movies. It's so sweet and sort of heartbreaking. Ah, back in the day when Chris O'Donnell was trying to be a big star. Don't get me wrong, he's a star...just not a big one.

Josh Jackson is a good choice for a celeb hubby. He is so yummy! I can't believe he dated Katie Holmes in real life. They seem like an odd match.

You know who else is cute? Chris Klein. He seems like a nice guy...and Katie Holmes was engaged to him. Why did she pick Tom Cruise over him? There are things I'll never know, I guess.

Jem: So, Gidget and I went to see Superman Returns with our super cutie-cutie friend, Miss M. I thought the movie Supersucked!!! There was almost no action, Kate Bosworth sucks as Lois Lane (absolutely NO moxie), and, it turns out, Superman is a deadbeat dad!

I was over it before the whole thing even started...and edit, people!!! Not every movie needs to be as long as childbirth...or as painful as the one last night was.

Ok, that's all I have to say about that right now.

gidget: i was not too impressed either. Like, there was no action. At least no good action. Oh, and Kate Bosawahatever, a paperdoll has more charisma. But i don't think Superman is a deadbeat dad. The summer movies have been a bit of a let down this year, but i still have movies to see. i could not believe how bored i was during Superman. If i had been at home, i would have fallen asleep. Or, shut it off to watch a Friends rerun i have seen 15 times, 'cause it would have be more entertaining. kinda sad.
gidget: Okay, so one of my new fav. things is to check my Top 25 played on my ipod every week or so to see how it has changed. So Jem, my question to you is what is on your Top 25 right now?

Jem: Gee, Gidget, I'm surprised you'd ask me this question...you know how personal a girl's iPod is. And by personal, I mean embarrassingly uncool...

But, in the interest of this iPod and knowing that I won't know anyone reading this here is my Top 25...

1. Wonderwall - Oasis
2. Electrical Storm - U2 (I do love this one)
3. Going Under - Evanescense (I know...but they kept playing that Tristan & Isolde trailer and it got stuck in my head)
4. This Year's Love - David Gray
5. In the Waiting Line - Zero 7
6. Keep on Loving you - REO Speedwagon
7. Lola Stars & Stripes - The Stills
8. Pour Some Sugar on Me - Def Leppard
9. Break the Night with Colour - Richard Ashcroft
10. Try - Nelly Furtado
11. Wake Up - Arcade Fire
12. I'm so Excited - Le Tigre
13. Fall Behind Me - The Donnas
14. The Reason - Hoobastank
15. Still in Love Song - The Stills
16. Any Way you Want it - Journey
17. I want it that way - Backstreet Boys
18. Incomplete - Backstreet Boys
19. Precious - Depeche Mode
20. Gender Bombs - The Stills
21. Beautiful Day - U2
22. Dakota - Stereophonics
23. Unconditional - The Bravery
24. What you waiting for - Gwen Stefani
25. Such Great Heights - The Postal Service

Wow! I'm surprised that there isn't any Madonna on that list...or the new Nelly Furtado album...I feel like that's all I listen to these days. I can't remember the last time I listened to that Donnas song. And, yeah, there are 3 Stills songs on there because I had the best time at their concert a few months ago...

Ok, that was fun and virtually painless. What's on your list, Gidget???

gidget: Well, you have to remember that stuff that has been in your music library for a long time is most likely to be on your Top 25 most played. And yes, a girls music collection is a private matter, but it is still fun to see what the most played music within that collection is! Here's mine:
1. Get Together - Madonna
2. Summer Dock - jjh
3. Ray of Light - Madonna
4. Music Is The Victim - Scissor Sisters
5. Love At First Sight - Kylie (i love you kylie!)
6. One, two Step - Ciara
7. The Rat - The Walkmen
8. Amazing - Madonna
9. Jump - Madonna
10. Like A Virgin - Madonna
11. Filthy/Gorgeous - Scissor Sisters
12.Can't Smile Without You - Barry Manilow
13. Leader of The Pack - The Shangri-las
14. Crazy For you - Madonna
15. Surfin' USA - Beach Boys
16. Hung Up - Madonna
17. Cruel and Unusual - the pipas
18. Drowned World - Madonna
19. Baby, i love you - The Ronnettes
20. A Quarter To Three - Sleater-Kinney (and my heart breaks a little)
21. Like a Prayer (live) - Madonna
22. Modern Girl - Sleater-Kinney (my heart breaks a little again)
23.Bachelorette - Bjork
24. A Question of Time - Depeche Mode
25. Vogue - Madonna!

There you go. That is the list for today, the morning of August 25. It's funny to look at.

gidget: So, last night i was playing softball and out of nowhere i got janet jackson's song 'IF' stuck in my head. Then i started to think about how good that video is. janet looks so amazing in it, and the dancing, oh the dancing. Especially when the song has the break, what an incredible dance break/sequence.

Jem: Remember when we saw Janet? That was the best!!! She was amazing live. "IF" is an amazing song...but I still love "Rope Burn" the best. And what she did to that guy during the concert...racy!!!

Isn't it funny when songs get stuck in your head out of nowhere?

So here's a tiny, insignificant bit of news that popped on to my radar this morning...Avril and Derek got married this weekend. I honestly thought they would break up before they got to the altar. I couldn't care less about this but I will be watching ET Canada tonight to see her dress. (I'm all about the dress). The wedding sounds like it was pretty classy...but don't you think 21 is a bit too young to get married?

gidget: yes, i did hear about Avril's nuptials. The dress is more fancy than i would have suspected Avril to wear. It is a Vera Wang gown (at least that is what i have heard), and she carried a bouquet of white roses. Also, i heard that Deryck and Avril's first song/dance was The Goo Goo Dolls 'Iris'. Ewww! What a wicked bad first song. I can not even imagine being married at 21. I wouldn't want to be chained down like that now, nevermind at 21! Not that i have a very intersting life, but still, 21. I guess if you are old enought to hold your liquor in the States, you are old enough to keep a man.

Jem: Ok, Gidget, I know we've talked about this before but now I'm putting it out there into the world via our blog...why are American guys so cute? And why are they more accepting of normal-sized girls? Canadian guys are all about the Barbies out there. They like skinny, blonde girls...even if they have nothing in common. Maybe they watched too many Corey Haim movies when they were kids.

I just feel more attractive and more accepted by guys in the US. It's like they understand that women come in all shapes and sizes and they like it that way.

Ok, ok, I know I'm generalizing and, if you're a guy reading this, you're probably shaking your head saying "Not me, I'm not like that at all"...and maybe you're not. But you know what? You most likely ARE like that. Think about it.

Feel free to post your comments...Gidget and I will gladly respond to anything you have to say.

Gidget: I have no idea why Amreican boys are so cute? perhaps it is the cute accent (according to what part of the country they are from).

Gidget: New H & M ads featuring Madonna are AMAZING! I love the new tracksuit. I can not wait till they are available for purchase. I think i heart Cloud.
