Why I Love Brian, Part Thirty-Five and Thirty-Six

Brian: "I just heard the creepiest line ever on an infomercial. It's for "Pajama Jeans"--which is basically jeggings--they said they're "like a sexy second skin"...

Have you ever wished you had a 'sexy second skin', Alyssa?

...That's something fuckin' Buffalo Bill would be into."

Me: How's [your wacky Professor]?

Brian: Haha--same old yesterday. No idea what he's talking about...sit in class thinking of how many ways I can kill myself with just my glasses.

Why I Love Brian, Part Thirty-Four

Brian: In my dream I was trying out for the school play. I was very excited about this, I don't know why, and I thought I did really well in my audition. And I got a part. They painted me white and I was part of the background...I think I was snow.

Why I Love Brian, Part Thirty-Three

Brian (on his potential new suit): I'm gonna look like Don Draper. Scratch that--Don Draper's gonna look like me.

Why I Love Brian, Part Thirty-Two

Brian: (On Elisabeth Moss' Golden Globes' dress) Just stay away from circular designs on the boobies. Boobies are already lovely on their own, no need to try and dress them up.

Merry Christmas!

I hope you're all having a wonderful day with family and friends! This year is the first Christmas spent away from my mom, Dad, and siblings, and I miss them very much, but I'm very happy to be with John and his family, who have shown me so much love and hospitality!

Spread some love around today.

Be joyful! Christ is born! :)

Love,

A.

Why I Love Brian, Part Thirty-One

Brian: Oh my God.

Me: Yeeeees?

Brian: I'm totally not for changing classic stories in major ways, BUT I might make one exception. Rumor has it Legolas might have more than just a walk-in cameo in The Hobbit.

Me: Yes, I heard that.

Brian: And for what reason did you not immediately share that information with me?

Me: Haha, sorry, I was about to go to work this morning when I saw it online.

Brian: Once upon a time a girl named Alyssa who failed her friend named Brian. The end.

I'm in New Jersey now, moved in to an apartment about 3 miles away from John, working as a waitress at a diner and getting used to my new surroundings! Sadly my computer is a bit on the fritz, but once it's fully operational I can continue real-job-searching without worrying it'll crash with all my stuff on it!

I'm happy. The transition has been smooth and I'm happy about my apartment. I've been feeling a little socially-deprived, but it's only been a week, and people are busy with the holidays, etc. I should be concentrating on work, anyway!

This is a pretty crappy update, but I'm hoping to have more to add once the holidays kick into gear--my dear friends Abby and Greg are coming to visit me next weekend, and I'm so excited to see them! :D More updates as they come!

Why I Love Brian, Part Thirty

Me: I'm not going to stare openly at your crotch because that's weird.

Brian: Hahahaha--and further proof: if I was worried about it, I wouldn't wear scrubs pants and nothing else in the first place! Go ahead and stare openly, but be warned, my crotch has the same impregnating powers as my eyes...But...not the way you think.

And later...

Brian: Our conversations, and the revelations that come from them, rock.

Me: Haha, I know! I agree wholeheartedly. You're cool.

Brian: I'm something alright.
