Should we call the Party Planning Committee? Nah! Angela’s BFF, Jenna Fischer, has it covered!

People.com reports that Angela was feted this past Saturday with a baby shower at Jenna’s LA home. The guest list was strictly “ladies only”. Family and friends from Angela’s native Texas joined her Office cast mates in the celebration noshing on iced tea and tea sandwiches.

Kate Flannery was quoted as saying that Angela is “one of the happiest pregnant people I’ve ever seen”. Surprised, LITO readers? Nah, me either!  I have never seen Angela with anything but a smile. It would be really annoying if she wasn’t so adorable. lol

This Saturday, BJ Novak will perform his stand-up to a sold out crowd at Cornell University’s Bailey Hall to an adoring crowd. Why “adoring” you say? Well, take a gander at this article written about BJ for the Cornell Daily Sun and see for yourself.

“I’m not quite sure how to put it any other way but … I’m madly in love with you. I know you wrote for The Harvard Lampoon, so I was inspired to write this letter to you in The Daily Sun.
