Lunch, er breakfast, rush today! Utah Family magazine is FINALLY going glossy. No more newsprint! Which after 15 years and my 4 years of employment is VERY cool. But, my boss made the decision 2 weeks before deadline. All our ads need to be resized, editorial streamlined, etc. Since we all wear many hats there, as most of you know, I also sell on top of my editorial duties. We all sell. That's what happens when you work for a small business. So, everything needs to be done tomorrow, so I can proof layout on Monday and we go to print! Look for us conference weekend! We're also going to be having City Weekly add us to 400 of their high profile, public drop-off locations around SLC. I hope we'll be hard to miss.
So, here's some quick Dish today:
- LOVED "The Office" premiere. That episode was CLASSIC "Office" with Michael being extremely awkward. I love contained episodes where everyone is involved. I hope they keep it up. Last season felt very "Jump the Sharky" near the end. Watch season 1 & 2 episodes and you'll see what I mean.
- Speaking of old "Office" eps, I'm so happy that KJZZ is doing re-runs from 10 - 11 p.m. each night. I've exhausted "Everybody Loves Raymond" and "Sex and the City" on TBS. I think I've seen every episode of SATC a half dozen times by now. I need something new. I can't watch news at 10 p.m. It freaks me out and I can't sleep, so sitcoms are the way to go!
- "Parks & Rec" was so funny. If you didn't see Amy Poehler's Leslie Knope singing "Poker Face" drunk, then you missed out.
- I promised I'd tame the "Glee" references, but can I just say? "Single Ladies" last night killed!
- The Emmy's were much better than last year. Liked having the different genres be awarded all together, the stage was awesome, the P.C. guy doing random trivia -- very funny. Could definitely leave out the mini-series genre -- make them go to the "Schmemmy's" (Creative Arts Emmy's) as Kathy Griffin would call them. Thoughts on winners:
* Although I adore Alec Baldwin in 30 Rock, I was really hoping someone else would win just to mix it up.
* Same goes for "The Amazing Race" - love the show (it premieres this Sunday!) and I realize it's terribly difficult to produce, but yawn... let someone else win.
* Annoyed that Toni Collette beat out all those other great ladies. Same goes for Jon Cryer and that stupid "Malcolm in the Middle" guy for beating my hubby-in-another-life Jon Hamm.
* THRILLED (I actually shouted out loud) that Michael Emerson finally got the kudo's he deserved for playing Benry on "Lost". He was so gracious and perfect in his speech. Too bad that's all the love "Lost" got.
* Also SO happy that Kristin Chenowith (aka the Original Glinda from "Wicked") won for "Pushing Daisies". I miss that show. I'm just happy Kristin will be on "Glee" next week. Oops, another reference.
* I thought the glasses thing for the best supporting actress nominees was really cute, even with pole-up-her-butt Vanessa Williams pretending she refused to do it. But better still was Sarah Silverman's stache. Genius. I hate her, but that was REALLY funny.
* I really liked Neil Patrick Harris. Hosting gigs are brutal. No one is ever happy. Way to go, Doogie!
That's it for this week!

I hope that "Office" episode was previewing good things to come this year. I've been annoyed with "Office" lately, but last week's was awesome.
