12 January
After a pretty tiresome day spent logging in the mail (what a crashing bore), I met up with Nik and we saw the SAG screening of You've Got Mail.
Loved it loved it loved it again.
Nik admitted afterwards that he hadn't been exactly rabid to see it, but that he liked it a whole lot. Afterwards, we were looking at the posters of what was playing at the theatre (SAG screens at the $3 theatre, AKA the Worldwide, a second run house where films go to die) and he suggested going to see Rush Hour.
"Lord, I'm not going to see Rush Hour, for heaven's sake!"
"Hey, I saw Slums of Beverly Hills with you! I saw The Avengers!"
"O, you wanted to see The Avengers, don't re-write history! Alright, the next thing that you really want to see and I don't, I'll go with you anyway. But not Rush Hour."
I mean, one has to have some standards!
Speaking of movies, man did I get ten million responses to my "Who is John Webster" query of yesterday! I get the tiniest bit behind with Diane Patterson, and I just never hear the end of it, do I?
Where were you people when I wanted to see whether anyone recognized the quote "I'm not at all happy with the flash card section"? Off reading Diane, one assumes...
And of course yesterday I meant that Burbage was hit on the head with a skull, not a scull! Spellcheck doesn't pick up silly mistakes like that, thanks Jan!
I have started a new vocal tic.
And when I start a new vocal tic, I go from never saying it to saying it at least once an hour. And they seem to burst from my forehead fully formed like Athena.
Anyway, I was driving to the airport with Mom the other day (and the reason that I was driving rather than her was because she was doing the last of my mending! Yes, I am 34 years old, why do you ask?) and there was all this traffic and I didn't know if I would make my flight, and then suddenly the traffic lightened and Mom said "Look, it's getting better! We might make it!" and I said "Shh, be quiet, you'll scare it away!"
And then I said it the other three times she commented on the lack of traffic. I think I'll be saying it at every opportunity until I am physically stopped from doing so.
Erin has started a journal!
I have been a fan of her writing for many a moon, though she would generally update once every six months or so, so it was hard to remain a loyal reader when nothing ever changed, practically, but she has written six whole entries in eight days!
Ssh, don't scare her away!
See, I told you I said that all the time now...
Today's horoscope:
You will consider an ethical or moral issue. Remember that the world is not always the way we would like it to be. Be reasonable.
One year ago today:
Wonder why they thought that chasing women was bad and wrong but selling women was a swell feminist statement?
