Good Morning
So our kitchen is pretty much packed. We have no dishes, flatware or cups. All paper and plastic, baby! Yesterday I couldn’t bear the thought of takeout, so I made a huge bowl of Susie’s cold tomato soup. We had it last night and we’ll probably have it tonight. It’s very good! Right now I’m actually at Toyota, getting my car a well-deserved service. And we finally put a wireless card in our laptop, so hooray, here I am, online. I’m SO tired today. I had to get up early (early for me) to get here. Last night I popped an Ambien before bed because I felt really whipped up for some reason, and it totally worked. I was asleep in five minutes and didn’t wake up until the geekboy told me I needed to get ready to go. I could have used about 2 more hours, though.
More packing is on my schedule for today, although not much. Last night the geekboy took down our CD shelves, along with a bit of paint from the wall. The shelves also left many holes, which I filled with spackle last night. I’m going to sand and paint the spots later this afternoon, I think. I prefer that over packing.
Hey Rona, what’s considered a good tip for our movers? I’m planning on buying them lunch and keeping some water handy. I think it’s going to be hot on Monday.
Fox
Last night I watched a fox walk through our yard, and then I watched Long Legs stalk it. What was he going to do? Kill it? Bring it home for me to cook? The thing was the size of a dog!
Severed hand probe widens
“You can’t purchase or own a body part in New Jersey.” Does it seem odd to you that people might need to be TOLD that?
Lance Bass is Gay
Lance Bass has finally come out of the closet. Good for him. Lance couldn’t be more boring or invisible to me, but he bagged Reichen, people! Nice. Also, Perez Hilton was just on Stern taking credit for forcibly dragging Lance out of the closet. Sigh. He vexes me.
Fletch!
Looks like the Fletch prequel has been raised from the dead. Can you believe that Kevin Smith’s project was dropped partly because he wanted Jason Lee as Fletch? Which would have been awesome. And the studio didn’t think Jason Lee was a bankable star. Ha! The new writer is Bill Lawrence (of Scrubs fame) and I couldn’t be happier. Plus, Zach Braff as Fletch! I can see it. Hey Bill, let’s bring on Donald Faison as a chocolate-bear sidekick.
End of the Day
After a day that involved tons of packing (including all our dishes and flatware – thank god my mom came over to help), a lovely backache and general stress, it’s the little things that perk you up. And today, one of those little things is that the geekboy is on his way home with a bag of Baja Fresh. Beer in the fridge and Big Brother at 8:00pm. Sigh.
Heath Ledger Rumored For ‘Joker’ Role
Heath Ledger as The Joker? Really? Okay. Stern was just discussing this, and he made a nice point – I’m sure Ledger is capable of doing the role well, but hasn’t The Joker been done to death already in the Batman franchise?
