For anyone who can, I really recommend just skipping the broadcast coverage and going with the live streams of events. The swimming live stream shows all the events AND the medal ceremonies, plus it has a pair of decent British commenters who are good but don’t talk too much. It’s been enjoyable viewing.

It only took me saying it to him 13,452 times for him to think of it.

More because he cracks me up

Boyfriend does this, tampered down from his original line “How you doin’?” Which I quickly killed. I sent him this post this ensued.

Seems a little weird/creepy to me.

Opera singer Bryn Terfel. I have synaesthesia, where I “taste” sounds, and his voice is like the best goddamn chocolate in the world.

Jon Favreau (back when Swingers came out) came into the pet store where I worked and was mean to me when I was 18. It was a tiny pet store with a tinier fish section and I only knew about the aquarium systems that we stocked. I was unable to tell him what insert he should purchase for his filter because it was not a…

Matthew McConaughey was in the suite next to me at a game, I was drunk on margaritas and kept “whispering” IT’S MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY HE’S SO FRIGGIN HOT ALRIGHT ALRIGHT ALRIGHT.

I worked on the Warner lot while he was filming Chuck (Pushing Daisies was next door, omg), and he is DEFINITELY one of the nicest celebrity types I’ve ever met.

I’d see him in the Starbucks on the lot, joking with the staff, goofing around, everything. The whole gang was actually very nice (outside of the blond…

I dunno if it’s because I didn’t get any sleep last night or what but the image of you shaking crackers at Zachary Levi has me laughing like a loon at my desk this morning.

I love, love knowing that James Marsden is nice.

First- These are all wonderful.
Second- There is more to this story about James Marsden, how dare you not share it

I accidentally ended up with Jason Segal’s phone number once so I called him and babbled idiotically. He was very nice.

I was like 8 months pregnant when I got to meet Hari Kondabolu after a show. I told him that I’d laughed so hard that I thought I might have pulled something (which was true, my abs were already pretty beleaguered because, 6 lb fetus). I meant it as a compliment. He immediately became very concerned. So I tried to…

My friends and I were boarding a plane home from NYC and Andre from The League was sitting in first class. My friend, who had a hangover and some serious, serious beer shits, farted basically on his face, and then proceeded to laugh maniacally basically until takeoff. I’ve run into more famous people, but that was the…

Oh, me, me! In college, I had some friends staying with me over break and we went to see Phantom of the Opera. We were waiting at the stage door after the show, which happened to be next to the stage door for whatever show Martin Short was in. Martin came out before any of the Phantom people, and I just had to talk to…

Ran into Pierce Brosnan at See’s Candy, burst into tears and said “You’re so handsome, oh my god,” and was so horrified I ran away. I am a class act.

I was visiting a friend in LA like 20 years ago. He got us tickets to see Natalie Merchant at the Greek, and I got all goofy because James Spader was in the snack line ahead of us. My friend didn’t know who James Spader is, so I spent the entire time walking up the stairs to our seats trying to get him to remember. I…

zac is great...i’ve known him for a few years, and he has been nothing but a class act, personally and professionally.
