it's not easy being green

hello lovely,

i am so pumped for the newest muppet movie. i can't believe i have to wait until november 23rd! they are doing such a great job of generating excitement for the movie. as if they had to generate any from me at all... i've been excited sine the idea was batted around that jason segel would write and star in the film. then, when i read the synopsis? i knew it would be epic:

"On vacation in Los Angeles, Walter,  the world's biggest Muppet fan, and his friends Gary (Jason Segel) and Mary (Amy Adams) from Smalltown, USA, discover the nefarious plan of oilman Tex Richman (Chris Cooper)  to raze The Muppet Theater and drill for the oil recently discovered beneath the Muppets' former stomping grounds. To stage The Greatest Muppet Telethon Ever and raise the $10-million needed to save the theater, Walter, Mary and Gary help Kermit the Frog reunite the Muppets, who have all gone their separate ways: Fozzie now performs with a Reno casino tribute band called the Moopets, Miss Piggy is a plus-size fashion editor at Vogue Paris, Animal is in a Santa Barbara clinic for anger management, and Gonzo  is a high-powered plumbing magnate." 

oh, my heart is so happy. i can't wait!

xoxo,
