fearlesstemp | surprise!

The unexpected was the theme of the day, it seems, and I'll put the most faboo surprise first: my (two weeks early) graduation present from [Annie's] mother. Annie and I met to see Undercover Brother, and before I even got in the mall I saw Annie walking across the parking lot with this bigass package. It was a package for me! So exciting! A graduation present two weeks early!

I opened the card which was really very nice, and contained a note to the effect of "I hope this gift will inspire you in life's next journey" or something so I was standing there in the parking lot trying to guess what was in this (very heavy) package. Something inspirational? Whatever could it be? And it was very inspirational! Because what could be more inspirational than...

A COMPLETE SET OF *NSYNC BOBBLEHEAD DOLLS!

I freaked out in the parking lot. Like, jumped up and down and doubled over laughing and basically lost control of my motor functions. Because! BOBBLEHEAD DOLLS! aldkjfa;lkj!!

It was so exciting!

So now they're sitting on the shelf above my computer staring off into the distance and I can just kick my desk whenever I want their heads to bobble. They are so cute! A little scary but cute! And I love them!

NSYNC BOBBLEHEAD DOLLS!!!!!

I had put the package down on the car next to mine because my car, a station wagon, lacked the convenient flat surface to rest the package on. Three minutes into my Bobblehead Freak Out, I heard this voice in the distance call "Nice car you've got there" and who is it but the owner of the vehicle! Who I vaguely recognize as a fellow student at and hockey player for my college! Who happens to have three people in tow who I vaguely recognize as fellow students as well! I was all "Oh my God! I'm sorry!" and then grabbed the bobblehead dolls and dove behind my station wagon to hide them and do my best not to die of embarrassment.

After I recovered from my fit, we stashed the dolls in my car and went into the mall to see Undercover Brother which was one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long time. And while there something funny and unexpected happened too, but it is a funny movie surprise that I'm not sure people would want ruined for them and so I'll hide it behind a cut tag here.

So a ways into the movie, Undercover Brother needs to go undercover in this big corporation and thusly needs to learn how to operate in a big white corporation and has to undergo Caucasian-Vision: a minutes-long bombardment of all aspects of white culture. Naturally, we the filmgoer are treated to some of these images. The first image? NSYNC. The score for the Caucasian Vision? HERE WE GO!! I. Almost. Died. Well, not really. What I really did was flail about madly like a seizure victim and cackle wildly. I mean! Here we go! First album! LOVE THAT SONG! It was SO FUNNY! Oh God. The movie was worth the price of admission for that alone.

Funny movie overall, though. I approve. And Doogie Howser was in it!! Also worth the price of admission to see Doogie in a new role.

NSYNC Bobbleheads! Woot woot!
