for some odd reason i had this song stuck in my head all day.  for an even odder reason, since childhood, i thought taylor dayne performed this song, lol.

as i’m watching it, i realize the “bouncer” in the video looks a lot like walter olkewicz (jacque renault on twin peaks)… i can’t find any credit that is actually him… but it really looks a lot like him.  the shape of the lips are especially similar.

anyways, i googled him, and i came across info that says he’s in bad shape healthwise.  i found a gofundme he has setup for donations.  if you can help, please do!  i hope he’s okay 🙁

a couple of weeks ago, steve and i were in washington and alaska…  he was out there in seattle for work, and i joined him for the few days after he was finished.  while we were out there, i wanted to check out some of the twin peaks filming locations.  they weren’t too far away from seattle, just a bit east.  where we visited was also in a large loop, so we hit the few spots and then went back on the highway to the city.  here are the pics 🙂

the first stop was the (snoqualmie) falls and the great northern…  there were a billion people up on the balcony, so i couldn’t get a shot without complete strangers in it 😐

i also didn’t get a shot in the hotel or anything, it seemed too busy and i felt weird, lol.

BUT… here’s a lil movie i made on my phone 🙂

then we hit the twin peaks sheriff’s dept (which is now a private race track/school).  the mill is across the way from there, and that’s where the drivers race their cars.  when we pulled up, the groundskeeper already knew what we were doing there, and said we could go inside.  there was a girl working the desk, but i didn’t say anything about being lucy, lol.  she called us twin peakers and told us that we could look around, so we did – the wood on the walls was still in tact.  super cool to see…  also: i totally peed there.  that’s mainly why i wanted to go in.

next up was the “welcome to twin peaks” sign (the painted one on the right is actually on the back wall of the cafe, FYI)

and last but not least, the double R diner (twede’s cafe in north bend, WA).  steve got a stomach ache from eating there – and no, we didn’t have the cherry pie OR the coffee.  also: the inside looks NOTHING like the show.  apparently there was a fire there years ago.  i can’t remember offhand if they actually shot the show there or not, though.  maybe it was a set.

where laura was found was really far away from there, and a lot of other scenes were shot in california, not WA.

either way, i was ecstatic! 🙂

i have no idea why i never had netflix until recently, but once i finally got it, i didn’t really know where to start. i thought there was so much that i wanted to watch but now i find myself getting annoyed with the selections. the first thing i watched was the crazies, just because i knew i really, really wanted to see that in the movies and i missed it. (and it’s good – watch it.) after that, i started looking for tv shows.

i started watching freaks and geeks on tv and fell in love with it.  i caught it at some strange, awkward point and totally out of sequence and it was also only really playing late at night while i would be trying to fall asleep, so i kept missing episodes straight through.  that was my first choice of tv series, but apparently there are some shows where you can only watch by disc, and that happens to be one of them. waiting an entire day (or two) for the next discs started aggravating me, so i kept looking and then i stumbled upon ally mcbeal.  i remember loving ally mcbeal when i was in junior high school, and into my high school years.  i didn’t remember a lot of the show in detail, but i knew i had liked it a lot so i gave it a whirl.

it’s actually really funny, and being that i’m older now, i caught on to so much more than when i did back then.  i watched it up until the last season, because then it started getting really sucky. i think i could only stomach about 2/3 episodes before i gave up on season five.  most of the main characters were phased out, the vibe was gone and the energy was misdirected.  i’m totally glad that it lasted as long as it did though, because four are way better than one. (story of my life with tv series!)

the cast is amazing. the dude from ghostbusters II is so funny on the show. i caught myself hysterical laughing a lot.  and no, the dancing baby isn’t ALWAYS there. (seems that’s the only thing that people bring up when i talk about the show…)

anyways, i highly recommend it 🙂

now a million years too late, i’m just getting into twin peaks. (while STILL getting freaks and geeks discs – i swear, the whole waiting for discs BS has made me lose interest…) i really hope this show is good, i know it’s got a crazy cult following…

otherwise, i highly suggest watching the steve byrne standup specials on netflix. bee and i were dying/laughing while watching him.
