1. We did it. We sang karaoke. In front of many, many strangers. The worst part? They drew our number FIRST. Oh my gosh...I was a little mortified. But we did it. We sang Tiffany's I Think We're Alone Now complete with actions and awesome back-up dancers. KP snapped a pic:
2. The reason for the title of this post relates to what happened last night. After the karaoke show we went to Starbucks (a weekly tradition of ours...it seems) for some yummy hot chocolate. We sat on the outside patio that happens to be right by a busy road. As we were sitting there talking, a car drove by and some chick yelled, "STARBUCKS IS FOR SINNERS!!" Awesome. Oh, the joys of living in Ignorantville. It's called hot chocolate people!! Then a few minutes later we got a cat call from another car so we decided that at least we were hot sinners.
3. Chloe is forcing me to go to a Halloween party tonight. My best idea for a costume was Elizabeth Bennett except I didn't have a good Jane Austen-y dress. I looked a few places and couldn't find anything that worked. So, finally at Taylor Maid I found a Geisha costume. That's right...I'm going as a Japanese prostitute. It's like a dream come true.
4. Um...November is next week. Next week. Which means I go to NYC in a matter of weeks. I feel so unprepared. I need to watch You've Got Mail again. For the 10 millionth time.
And just for a little trip down memory lane, here I am in Times Square a year-ish ago (it's a little blury...sorry) when I went with KP:
5. I'm going to the Regina Spektor concert with Candice next week. I'm excited. I like most of her songs. I think. Frankly, I just love going to concerts. It'll be fun.
6. Two movies I really want to see are Dan in Real Life and Lars and the Real Girl. Both look good. To me. I'm hoping to go to a movie this weekend. I love going to movies.
7. Did anyone watch Gossip Girl on Wednesday? And did you notice ANTM Cycle 7 winner Caridee English on it? That was a little weird. But then again those ANTM girls pop up on all sorts of CW shows, don't they?
9. The other night I was playing the grand piano at Chloe's Dad's and it made me really miss having a piano at home. Not that I ever had a grand piano but I just miss playing whenever I wanted to. I'd loooooove to have a grand piano someday. They sound so great.
10. Marlene brought Peanut Butter M&M's to work today. Curse her. They are my weakness.
Later,
Sarah ;)

I saw Dan in Real Life last night and it was AMAZING. So good. I absolutely loved it and my husband loved it too. It was just SO good - we were laughing all night, we teared up a bit....just a great movie. Hope you like it too!

I finally saw the preview for "Lars and the Real Girl". It's playing in Sandy. I want to go see it. Too bad I'm totally sick! I should have never forced you to go to that Halloween party, speaking of the "Devil Inside"...Ha ha ha!

That picture is great. Love how the back-up dancers are totally blurry. In fact you're the only non-blurry one. Were you so nervous you were standing still looking around at the crazy dancers? ;-)
Your Starbucks story reminds me of driving with my best friend (another Sarah) in college. We'd just yell crazy stuff at people just to laugh. The best one was this old man who yelled at me to slow down when I had to swerve to miss getting hit by another car in a parking lot. I was only going 10 mph. Reactively, I yelled out the window, "Go back to your rest home, fart boy!" To this day, that saying still makes us laugh.

Thanks for reminding me why I left Orem. Seriously people are so dumb sometimes. I am dying to see that Ryan Gosling movie. Be sure to post whether it's good or not if you see it.
