So, yesterday was definitely one of the most exciting and coolest days! I've had this silly joke about Robert Schwartzman being my husband since 8th grade and well, I've loved Rooney since then too. And so I magically scored an interview with him for theMAGAZINE(ok)! :o

I went to the House of Blues and chilled in the lobby for a while. Then, the stage manager lead everyone upstairs. I told her I was there to do an interview. And she was all, "Uhh, I don't know if there's time for that." And I said, "Well, I talked to Robert the other day and he was cool with it." So, we (like 7 of us) went up. Everybody but Robert was doing their tune-ups/sound check. Stage manager lady gave everyone a free Wild One EP and a shirt! Yay! Then, Robert popped out and I guess he recognized me cause he waved at me! (And I can tell it was at me cause I was standing several feet from everyone else.) And then they played a couple songs for us. She went up to ask him if he had time do an interview and he was all, Totally! And waved again. He disappeared, then came out of a secret door and said hi to everyone that was there.

Then, he came over to me and he was like, "Let's doo eeet." (Literally, he said it like that, rofl.) And some chicks stared daggerz at me as he whisked me away. We went to the bar area (and he got me a stool down all gentlemenly like, aww), then we decided it would be too noisy with the other bands doing soundcheck. Oh, and he was all like, I can totally hold your voice recorder if that's cool. So nice. So, we went upstairs to one of those private balconies. And we were sitting like really close. It was crazy, like a centimeter apart. Basically, his arm was like leaning against my leg, lol. And we did the interview. I felt like a total idiot and kept saying stuff like, "Sweet!" and "Awesome!" I got a bit more relaxed after a while and started having sort of like a conversational interview. Like, we lolled about his fluffy purple coat in his SOLOBOB video. And then we relocated AGAIN to the dressing room and chilled there on a couch for the last few questions.

At the end I was like, "Hey, can I be a fangirl for a minute and take a picture?" And he said, "Sure, do you have a camera?" Lol...silly boy. And he decided to take it because he had a longer arm, rofl. And he took 2 to make sure it looked good. And then, he helped me find my way out. I said, "Thanks for letting me interview you!" He said, "Yeah, thanks for finding me!" :D

SO YEAH, WHOA. SURREAL. I am not doing this justice, but it was amazing. He was so chill and I managed to keep my cool, lol. This really was just.....whoa. It sounds very simple when I write it out, but yes......wow. I got a bit flustered with my words a couple times, but I was good. I'm sure he knew I was nervous, but I was all, Woo I'm excited to see you guys--first time evaaa. And he was all, cool!

Anyway, I chilled until the doors opened. Got my photo pass. Got to the front row. I enjoyed the two opening bands. Crash Kills was very musically talented. I was quite impressed. And Tally Hall came out, they were A-DORABLE. <3 I must have their album! The lead singer looked exactly like Logan from Veronica Mars & the other lead singer looked like Orlando Bloom & James Franco's love child aka HOT. They also used a megaphone, kazoo, and ukulele during their songs. Cute, lol.

Then, ROONEY came out! It was very exciting. Robert came running out with the giant Rooney flag. They played ALL of my favorite songs. They were awesome live. And soooo much cuter in person. It was just so fun. It's always hard to describe a concert that you're just like "omgamazzinggg", but it was great. And kind of a dream come true cause I've been such a fan of them for so long. <3 I lol'd cause Robert messed up the lyrics during "Sorry, Sorry". They all lol'd too. It was cute. Also, Ned, the drummer, sang a song, while Robert drummed, Exciting! I love hearing songs I've listened to for ages played live because now I have different memories of the songs. And I can imagine them playing now! Woo! I also took video of "Blueside", "Popstars", and "When Did Your Heart Go Missing?" :D I shall upload them when the magazine comes out!

Sooooo, yes! What a day! Oh man. No words can really describe this, despite the fact I wrote this up. Doesn't do it justice, guys. Srsly.

READ MY MAGAZINE DEARIES!! :DDDD

My articles include LADY STARLIGHT, SKIN GRAFT, and DESIGNERS (Tia, Dress Nurse)!!! Not to mention Faith's amazing photography!

Okay despite my extreme aversion to looking at RPratz as anything but Cedric Diggory or looking at anything Twilight-related in general, this cracked my shit up. Rpratz, you are one creepy mofo. And all I have to say at the end is...."If Only."



:D

"Okay, here's how things shake out. On Friday, FOX asked Joss to come in and pitch a second season of Dollhouse. That's a very good sign. They wanted to know his plans.

Off the back of that, they're now negotiating towards a second season. Which is brilliant, actually.

If you want to make your voice heard about how much you want to see the show return, here's how:

CALL - Leave a voicemail on 310 369 3066 for Peter Rice, Chairmain of Entertainment @ FOX

EMAIL - askfox@fox.com

TWEET - Twitter @foxbroadcasting, point people towards this post

The official decision gets announced on Monday -- although, obviously, the decision is made before then -- and we'll have it here and on Twitter as soon as it's known. We're covering the upfront presentation so news shall be gushing that day."

So, even if you don't care about the show or watch it, there are SO MANY that do and so many who would be crushed by the lack of it for a second season. So, I'd love it if you could just send FOX an e-mail saying "Save Dollhouse!" That's all. :) I sent them 4 detailed e-mails, lol.

That's all!

I am very grateful for certain people who don't base their opinions on other people's opinions of me and get to know me themselves.

A message I received from an LJ friend I rarely talk to, oddly enough, made me feel world's better about everything. Lol, I feel silly saying it, but I lost a number of people I enjoyed talking to over their wrongful opinions of me and not attempting to understand my side of things. Not that I'm really surprised.

I understand people have to stand behind their closer friends when these things happen and take sides, but I'm very grateful to those who don't and make up their own minds. And especially to those people who don't meddle.

Thank you to these people.

Also, Missy is one of the most intelligent people I know and I am grateful for the way she stands up for me during internet drama, even if it appears silly and ridiculous (and immature as people love to say) to those who don't know her personally. During internet drama, the only way to really behave is silly and ridiculous because it's internet drama. (And I love Walter, Lauren, and Ashley too--just for the hell of it. ;] )

Okay time to finish my take-home final. I feel an all-nighter coming on with my 7:30 AM final.

Sooo, I've started my Buffy re-watch.

And I made a blog for it so you all don't have to listen to my silly rants.

http://buffygasm.blogspot.com

Sooo, follow it if you want. I promise it will be entertaining! :D

And it won't just be Buffy, it'll be all things Whedon, basically~ I'm probably going to put up Dollhouse reviews, Season 8 comic reviews, and whatever else strikes my fancy! So, check it out! :D I put up the first review for the first two episodes of Buffy. ^^

Message from your friendly neighborhood Joss Whedon obsessed gal:

DON'T FORGET TO WATCH JOSS WHEDON'S NEW SHOW 'DOLLHOUSE' TONIGHT ON FOX AT 8 PM CENTRAL TIME!!!

CAPSLOCK!!!

Srsly, ppl, give the show a chance. Eliza Dushku has explained that it takes a few episodes to really get into the show's flow and concept. That's how Joss' shows work. You can't base his work over a pilot (if we did that, who would have even watched Buffy or Angel or Firefly? XD). His work is developed over several episodes and gradually gets more and more AWESOME.

That is all.

Plz watch. I don't want another awesome show possibility to get canceled. D:

Also, Lady GaGa's music video for LoveGame is out.
