I made it through the week! This was my first week of full-time since August 2008, and boy am I feeling it. It'll take me a little while to get used to this, I think, but there are perks, too. I had a great long chat with one of my (new) editors today to see if we can make this crazy machine run a little more smoothly. I have high hopes. I even got out of work early (well, early in the evening, but I'd put in more than a full day since I got in at 9am to read music listings). Leaving the office before six is such a luxurious treat. Then our great friends Luke and Lisa came over to eat (YUM) and watch Inglourious Basterds (FUN).
All of these things are great, but I laughed the most today (Good Stuff alert) about celebrity name typos in articles I read. My two favorites were Alana Rickman and Steve Nicks. I can't get enough of jokes about Alana Rickman. She was so great in Die Hard! And didn't you love her in the Harry Potter movies? That's not to mention Steve. I mean, who doesn't love the dulcet tones of Steve Nicks? Great singer; weird penchant for scarves, though.
This weekend is bananas. Tomorrow I'm seeing Daybreakers with Erica before hanging out with Tom and Annie (we may or may not go see Neil Gaiman narrate Peter and the Wolf). Sunday is Mike's and my second anniversary! We have an awful lot going on this year, so we decided to play it cool and not exchange gifts. Fortunately, an opportunity popped up for me to review a fancy hotel so we're getting a room at Nu Hotel in Brooklyn, gratis. Anniversary win! There is much to be thankful for. One of those things is gingerbread with fresh whipped cream OH MY GOD YOU GUYS.
Hee hee, Alana Rickman.
