I have been anxious and jittery this week, hence the lack of posting. I have a stressful work commitment tomorrow which will mean I won't be able to watch Smallville until the weekend (grrr... after it's been off for so long... grrr). Hopefully I will feel much better when it's over

There were multiple gelati in movie, yes?
OMG you’re right, there were multiple gelati. Although, if you were to say that outside of Italy I think you’d just confuse people, so I think you went with the right choice after all.
As far as girl crushes, I’ve thought about it a while, and the only thing I can come up with is that for me, they have to be snarky. Starbuck / Katee Sackhoff. Katherine Hepburn. Elizabeth Bennet. Nora of the Thin Man movies. Veronica Mars.
But then Audrey Hepburn is one of my biggest girlcrushes of all time and I don’t know that I’d call her snarky. Elegant and witty, yes. Hmm. She’s just too lovely to leave out! And a marvelous humanitarian to boot!
Well, good luck with the long trip, and I hope things improve soon -- wishing you all the best.

Oh, god... *melts* ...
Er, yes, sorry, what? I am sure I could give Mr Damon a shot. *magnanimous*

I'm glad that we can dork about plural nouns. *dorks*
Snarky girls are good! Yes! That accounts for my Lois Lane thing, for sure. As well as the obvious Kara/Katee thing. I don't watch Veronica Mars but I appreciate that she fits that mould too. Headstrong, forthright, opinionated, funny, intelligent, assertive--these things all appeal, yes.
Audrey is a category of person and icon all unto her own self. *nods* She's adorable but completely separate from my other girlcrushes.
Back from long trip, exhausted but relieved... I am having some brief soothing LJ time before tumbling into bed...

As for girlcrushes, Lois Lane is a perfect fit. Also, your remarks made me reflect that I think Audrey is intelligent and assertive, even if she only snarks in a very genteel way. Hmm. Yes, I think that's how I want to put it. Anyway, she's too fetching not to adore. Look!
Well, I hope you had a lovely and well-deserved rest after your trip. I'm glad it's over and you feel relieved. I'm clambering into the car right after I finish teaching this morning, so I'll be checking in later tonight if you want to myth-geekout a little. *hugs*

Yes, I think Audrey IS assertive and intelligent. She's never seemed to be just a mindless, simpering pushover, that's for sure!
I'm terrible at working out time differences... and I'm still trying to catch up on sleep, but yes, myth-geekout, we must. *resolves*

Heh, I'll put it in the queue. Mmm stubble. I'm getting pretty good at distracting myself, and it's only a month into the hiatus.
