Morning Coffee (8/10/10)

Happy Tuesday. It's going to be 90 and humid today, and I am just so done with this. My lunch group usually eats outside, but I've had enough. I think I will boycott that until the temperature falls. And hey, if I eat at my desk, I can read more random blogs and find exciting links for you. See what I do for you??

An oddly high proportion of the news this morning is coming from Alaska. Most amusing: Levi Johnston wants to run for mayor of Wasilla and have a reality show about it. Honestly, I would probably make an exception to my no-reality-TV rule for this, because it sounds like a wonderful trainwreck. Bad news from Alaska: there was a plane crash and former Sen. Ted Stevens may have been on board.

GMA has been talking about a woman who was having sex with her teen daughter's friends, and I am a horrible person, because my first thought was that it sounded like the plot of a CW show. Their "how not to spend thousands of dollars on back-to-school clothes" stories are getting annoying, because, you know, you can just not spend thousands of dollars on back-to-school clothes. Ooh, Javier Bardem is going to be on later. I'm bored of what seems to be Official Eat Pray Love Week, but I'll take Bardem over Roberts any day. I'm trying to decide whether I should bother actually finishing that book. (I started it a few years ago.)

A Pop-Tarts store and cafe?? Yes please.

Social Media Monopoly is completely awesome and I wish I could actually buy a copy.
