So yesterday was my first day off, really, since the show, what with all of the socializing that I have been doing (it's so difficult being popular!), so I spent it hanging around and watching TV. It was lovely just to waste time and not feel guilty--I couldn't even run any of the errands that I need to do, since it was a holiday and everything was closed! Sweet.

I did do some puttering around the house, I wasn't completely stationary. I folded up all of my shirts, and even strongly considered putting them in the closet, but lost momentum before that. Everything is organized, though, and all my tank tops and wife-beaters are together, so that's a job well done.

It's freaking hot, though, so I got out that little fan that I had bought the other day, and plugged it in and all was well. The low setting is a little high, that's the only problem when it's six inches away from my face as it is when it's on my desk. It's hard being me.

Had a swell time with the TV, watched the Animal House 25th anniversary thing on the Costas show which made me feel astoundingly elderly, though not as elderly as Peter Riegert, who looks like his own grandfather, particularly next to Tim "Holding up nicely" Matheson. Or possibly Tim "Had a buttload of plastic surgery" Matheson, I'm not entirely sure.

John Landis said that Bluto was half Cookie Monster and half Harpo Marx, with being completely destructive while still being completely sweet. That struck me, because both Cookie and Harpo have been my favourites for years.

I also watched the new League of Gentlemen episodes and an episode of Match Game that starred three of my childhood crushes, Bart Braverman, Bobby Van and Robert Walden. I was an eclectic child.

So that was a 4th of July well spent! I so was ignoring the holiday that when I started hearing the fireworks rumbling, I thought it was thunder. "Wow, that's quite a storm!" I thought, until it went on for thirty seconds or so without stopping and the penny dropped.

I love checking my stats at the beginning of the month, because they only show the top twenty search strings, so the more peculiar ones disappear as the month goes on.

This month's greatest one that nobody else will be looking for is "actors with 9 cocks". I cannot quite remember writing an entry with that particular subject, but who can argue with Google?

I particularly like the fact that it's plural. 'Cause there are so many actors with 9 cocks. I can name six of them without stopping to think.

Today's horoscope:
With these Stars, every day is a holiday. Writers and navigators are in love with a course that only they can chart. Artisans and musicians are fleet of hand and pure of tone. Time alone is time well spent.

One year ago today:
I never go to Starbucks, so I ordered a hot chocolate. "What size?" "Whatever size you people call small." It wasn't so much a day for hot chocolate, but I don't drink coffee and there ain't anything else in a Starbucks for me.
