It's her god damn job. If she didn't want the paparazzi then she shouldn't be doing what she does. Let's also not forget her nervous breakdown which was no doubt an attention grab from the entire nation.

While it does seem nauseatingly self-centered and naive at first glance, what good does money do you if you are desperately unhappy? The woman obviously has some real problems. But since she's rich, we have little sympathy, especially since she more or less exists in our minds as a creature to be viewed through the camera lens. As a society we have a shockingly small amount of empathy for mental illness.
Although she reportedly said the quote in a British accent, so what does that mean? The original source said she said that to the paparazzi, but then I later read she said it to a homeless guy who asked her for change when she didn't have her purse.

Haha. I used to really like Stargate, I think I just need to get past these silly beginning episodes when they were still trying to figure out what they were doing. But the ones after O'Neil left were just awful. There's a reason Farscape was cancelled...
I really like the Britney quote in my sig, but I'm not sure what to make of it.

When I go down there for my interview (the iatse 669 Camera Union that I applied to is right across the street) I'll take a picture of the studio and the marquee - if I tell them I'm a student they might give me a tour of the studio, but holding a DSLR I doubt they'll believe me  . Apparently Phideaux is a huge SG-1 fan

Every time a friend shows me their demo reel Stargate will definitely be on there  . I've actually never watched the show, but the studio that it's shot at is literally right down the street from me

I wondered if that might be the case. I love that show.

Man I know so many crew and actor people that have worked on Stargate... it's kind of like the village bicycle of the television industry in Western Canada

I am not sure what T's post in the Angelo thread means, but it was so enigmatic I had to quote it and share in the mystery.
And a new year calls for a new sig!
And I have been watching Stargate SG-1. The beginning episodes are really kind of terrible.

Take care Alex.

I'm going to go practice drums for a bit, I think.
Take care, Scott! Hope your cold alleviates.

Yeah, I was feeling pretty badly for about 3 days, but the introduction and conclusion periods of it weren't that bad at all. My taste buds are finally starting to come back; that was the last symptom hanging on except for a cough.

Really? That sucks. I'm finally getting over it; it was a persistent little bugger.

Not much. Meeting up with David and Danny today, hopefully we'll get some stuff done.  Just passing time until then really. How about you?

Well I once again slept from 12 until 7. But I've expanded from waking up after 4 hours to after 7, so that's something!
In other news, the work radio has been changed to a mostly '80s station, and I'm not sure if it's better or worse. Every time a song starts, I think it's Hungry Like the Wolf, which was on the previous station, but then it's not and all '80s music just sounds the same. :/
