1. I can't find my GD cell phone. I blame my subconscious self, who is, I believe, attempting to keep me within my alloted daytime minutes by refusing my conscious, too-chatty self access to the phone. Stupid subconscious.

2. Project Runway is awesome.

3. Somewhere in me there's a series of posts about Astaire/Rogers movies to go along with all those icons I uploaded ages ago, but here's something quick I thought of when I looked at my default icon in the corner of my Update Journal window here - in Swing Time, Ginger plays Penelope "Penny" Carroll and Fred plays John "Lucky" Garnett and it was only after I'd seen the movie at LEAST five times that I realized the pun. Isn't that sad?

4. You should all totally see Swing Time asap. It is awesome. I bet it's even more awesome if you're clever enough to get the punny jokes the first time around, as I'm confident all of you are.

OMG BOOZE CRUISE!!! I got your messages and have been DYING because I haven't been able to call you back about PAM AND JIM! OMG! When they were out there on the deck - that LOOK on his face. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!!!

I taped but haven't seen tonight's episode yet. We must talk about it and everything else you've seen this weekend! Even if I haven't found my cell phone!

Whenever I watch Swing Time I think about "Never Gonna Dance" and Ginger's feet bleeding they did it so many times. But it is in my top 3 Fred/Ginger movies

I know, isn't that incredible? I can't imagine how excruciatingly painful that must have been, and yet you don't see any of that in the dancing or on her face.

What are your other top two Fred & Ginger movies? Swing Time is my personal fave, with Follow the Fleet and Shall We Dance rounding out my top three. I don't think Follow the Fleet is that highly regarded by people, probably because Fred and Ginger are kind of the second leads in the movie, but the movie has some of my favorite musical numbers (like I'm Putting All My Eggs in One Basket, icon-ized here).

The last time I know of, that you had your cell phone, was when you took the picture of the top of your head. Maybe it's around there somewhere (around where you were sitting when you took the picture, not hidden somewhere in your hair on the top of your head). Wait...

How do you get pictures off of a cellphone? Did you have to plug it into the computer?

Though I do have a lot of hair, the phone is not nestled in there. :) After I got your comment, though, I realized that it might be near my computer - but now I've looked under piles and still no go. I think I had it after the hair photo, because I remember talking on the phone late Tuesday night after driving home. I'm almost positive the phone made it into the house with me, but now I'm wondering if I left it under the seat of the car or something. Must investigate!

Thanks for the tip!
