BEN WHO-FLECK?! What the who? What, who, what is going on here?!

I don’t know why, but 9 times out of 10 whenever someone asks me a question I don’t know the answer to I just say “Ben Who-Fleck?!” I just don’t know you guys. This skit has just stuck with me since I first saw it when it aired..

Stefon’s first appearance wasn’t at the Update desk. He originally appeared with his brother David (Ben Affleck) on 11/1/2008, when the two brothers pitched a concept for a movie to two execs (Suds and Samberg).
Stefon’s only other SNL appearances away from the Update desk include promos with Katy Perry and Robyn in 2011, Maya’s monologue last year, and introducing Bruno Mars as musical guest earlier this season.

yes. tonight!

Bill Hader and Seth Meyers on the final episode of The Office

GPOY.

Okay, there’s gonna be a bit of SNL spam today, but tonight is the season finale (host Ben Affleck, musical guest Kanye West) & I am beyond devastated that Bill Hader is leaving the show. He is phenomenal. & his cameo on the series finale of The Office was spot on! (See above) Bitter sweet times.

goodbye iphone and good riddance!

hayes and i are getting new phones today. we couldn’t decide on the same plan and provider, so we compromised- he’s staying with that awful at&t while i’m switching to my own plan on t-mobile so i can do away with two year contracts! we are both super happy and his work gives amazing discounts on electronics, so we get our new phones (galaxy 4) basically for free!

i took the red eye home last night/this morning. got into boston at 6:21am- it only took us 5hrs and 15mins! but i only slept for an hour onboard while flying over nebraska-illinois. usually i can sleep anywhere,  anytime, but on this flight i just wasn’t sleepy! (but now it’s kind of catching up with me..) right after we landed, maura & i had breakfast in peabody with our parents- who started early celebrating their 33rd wedding anniversary! i’m so happy to be home.

also, i really don’t think i could ever live on this coast, cos everything i do relies on east coast time. and that would mess up my ocd like crazy. like this morning we had a conference call at 5am pacific time cos our clients scheduled it for 8am eastern. and i know that happens a lot for other people. even waiting for the office to air, after everyone else already saw it, making tumblr/facebook erupt in tears and posting all the feelings, i don’t know how i could deal with all the spoilers all the time. plus my favorite show, saturday night live wouldn’t be live. that would depress me, like that would not work for me, especially after they have three hours before they air it over here to edit out all the mistakes, laughs and swears. those moments are what make that live show my favorite. like, everything needs to be in order for me or i freak out, that goes for everything in my life. but i guess one good thing about the time difference was that the bruins game was on for the duration of happy hour, so all our drinks were half off!

i could never live here, in the bay area. in new england, i love that when the gps says it will take 20mins to get from point a to point b, it really takes 20mins! even in boston, we know the area so well, that when there is traffic, there’s like 5 other ways to get around it to your destination. but since there’s only so many bridges across the bay, that’s not the case here; you have to give yourself plenty of time before meetings so you aren’t late. and the bart system is an amzing idea, but not enough people use it; driving anywhere, there’s only one person per car, it’s sad. there are just so many people here, i can’t deal. it’s nice and pretty to visit, but i am wicked excited to be going home tomorrow!

on saturday my parents will have been married for 33 years. it was a rainy may day in 1980, they got married at the same chuch my mum was baptized, in Salem, Massachusetts. my great-grandparents owned a grand mansion three houses down from the church, (her 6 kids all decided to sell if when my great-grandmother passed away in 2001, i cry whenever i think about it, it was built in the 1700’s with three floors, two staircases, a servants quarter, a grand room, it was perfection, how i would love to have that place still in my life) so mum and her wedding party got ready there before walking to the ceremony. she carried a bouquet of lilacs she picked from the bush in her grandparents yard. that’s one of the reasons i love lilacs so much- aside from them being the NH state flower and having such a pleasant aroma! 
i’ve always followed in my parents footsteps- i went to their alma-mater, graduated exactly 30 years after them; got married exactly 30 years and 4months to the day after them; even began dating hayes for 5 years before marriage, just like they had. they’re just such great people that i admire so much and i’m so thankful we’re in each others lives.
