Weekend Update: Ducky’s Back
Posted by: Ducky in Ducky Does TV, The Amazing Race, The Hills, WGA StrikeIt’s Sunday night and I’ve just returned from a crazy weekend. I had a business meeting (I know, fancy) in NYC yesterday that was simply amazing, I did a little roaming around and then I was back home. So that’s from Boston to NYC and back in a 18 hour span. That’s a lot of driving for one day and I was tuckered.
I have to quick tell you that after our meeting yesterday we went for lunch at Bar Martingnetti on Broome Street and I had quite the encounter with a celebrity chef. I had to go to the bathroom so I headed to the back of the restaurant where there are 3 bathroom doors. A woman had just gone into the only open one and there was a really tall man in front of me pacing. The pacing back and forth got more frantic as the seconds ticked on. He finally started almost doing the peepee dance when he turned toward me. It was Todd English. I smirked because it was hysterical watching Todd English almost piss himself. Then it got worse and he had to start grabbing himself in the crotch, like a 4 year old panicked that he might have an accident. It took everything I had to not laugh in his face.
Finally, a door opens and he rushes in. A good 45 seconds later I hear the toilet flush and the door open instantly. TODD ENGLISH didn’t wash his hands. SICKA! So gross. I almost died. So here’s a thought for everyone out there… stay clear of food Todd English has touched. Thankfully he was just a bar patron at this place and not a chef because I would have thrown up. That’s my fun story of the trip.
Woke up this morning, watched last week’s episode of THE HILLS where Heidi confronted Lauren finally! It was divine. I loved watching Heidi try and claw her way back in, watching Spencer almost have a cow, watching Whitney freaking out over Lauren getting an IM from Heidi and finally watching the final blowout. You go Lauren with your bad self telling Heidi that you’d like to “forgive her and forget her.” Looooved it!
Then Jon and I went to lunch, went shopping for a good long while, and now I’m home and it’s almost time for THE AMAZING RACE. Oh crap, it’s my parent’s anniversary today. Gotta make that call.
So while I was away, the WGA and AMPTP have decided to reopen talks starting next Friday. Could this mean that things are looking up or that both sides are trying to save face? Regardless, this could mean that we have television back sooner than we thought.
Gotta call the ‘rents. Glad to be home.
