two items

There are actually a bunch of things I want to torture you with, including (but not limited to) recent tutoring, my most recent parking ticket, the latest annoying job, how I forgot my wallet today, the generalized self-loathing that accompanies any personal essay, how late my Proactiv is, and my cat's worrying ability to chew on his own collar - but there is not sufficient time for me to ramble on about these things at the moment. I have to go to bed.

I have time for two things!

First, because I am a sucker for memes - Lurkers! Are there lurkers out there? If there are, hi! It would be cool to hear from you, possibly via a comment to this post. Posting anonymously is okay. I swear I'm not scary. I use my cute cat icon to demonstrate my lack of scariness.

[SPEAKING of the cute cat - he totally just crawled into my work bag and sat there for a few minutes, quite content, until it started to tip over veeeeery sloooowly, at which point he did not get out of the bag, but just sat there looking kind of desperate and terrified. I rescued him! Oh, if only I had a digital camera. The cuteness was off the charts. Moving on!]

Second, am I the only person who really disliked Sideways? It has, like, a 95% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes and I feel like I must have been shown a different cut of the movie than other people. Or maybe I just have pedestrian taste. I am, for example, kind of looking forward to that ABC Family TV movie starring Ryan Reynolds, who starred in one of my favorite mediocre sitcoms of the recent past, Two Guys and a Girl.

And that is all.

Thank you for the icon love! It was my very first icon, and actually adorns my bio at the site. I adore all your classic movie icons (double entendre intended), as one would expect me to. Especially the Fred & Ginger. I am a huge Ginger Rogers fan. Vastly underrated actress, she. I'm so glad you enjoyed the site and plan to visit again. Our community is small but knowledgeable and entertaining, so do jump in if you're into that sort of thing!

As as incentive, should you be betting in Oscar pools, lay your cash on "Downfall" for best foreign language film. I have excellent opinions that it should win.

I'm actually going to an Oscars party and plan on using your inside info to fill out my predictions - I will wow them all! Thanks muchly. :)

Thank you! I love Ginger Rogers too, though I've seen so few of her movies out of the Astaire/Rogers ones. I remember loving Stage Door, and I caught a few minutes of Kitty Foyle (is that the name of the one she got the Oscar for?) but other than that, not so much. Should remedy that!

And I will definitely be visiting your site, and possibly jumping in! Thanks again for the link.
