Okay, new theory: if it's Friday, and it's seventy degrees and sunny, and you're hungry, and you haven't messed anything up all morning, and you're an intern and you're not getting paid anyway, you should get to go home early. Right? Who's with me ( Read more... )

Welcome to the Christmas Break of Germs and Pestilence, Westlake Village Edition! I'm off work until after New Year's, which is great news--not only is LA having Stormwatch!, aka "rain," but my roommates and I have been passing around a fairly convincing cold. It's a good time for hanging out by the fire, watching movies, napping, and having ( Read more... )

Lovely, lazy Sunday. Church, homemade pumpkin donuts (PSA: deep-frying is gross and surprisingly hard), Post-Church Cheese gathering with roommate Kendra and midtownmandy and rotatingpies. Glee special features. The Fall with roommate Katie. Hanging out by the fake (but convincingly blazing) fireplace. I'm even too lazy to knit ( Read more... )

Day 05 - A show you hate


( Read more... )

I watched the Rian Johnson movie The Brothers Bloom twice this weekend--once on Friday, while I was trying to knit lace and then realized I hadn't been paying attention at all, and once tonight, when I put everything aside and applied some brainpower and totally loved it. I adore Brick, his first movie--but it's a first movie. The Brothers Bloom is ( Read more... )

Here is the problem: I need more hours. Like, in the day. Surely somebody can remedy this for me? See, it's 1:30 now, and I'm at my parents' house for cat-feeding/yarn-winding/wireless-using purposes; church starts at 5:05 forty minutes away. Things I would like to do in the mean time include ( Read more... )

Tonight was my second week of screenwriting class. I went to the Thursday section last week and decided to register--though, ironically, the instructor was in some sort of an accident (maybe she rode her bike into a car, not that we know anything about that at my house), and the first two weeks of class are being taught by the other guy, which was ( Read more... )

Or, okay, actually, I don't. But I could use some peace these days, long-term and short-term, passing understanding or not, and there is prayer involved, and if I have to supplement with little-kid Sunday school songs, so be it. I can out-"Pharaoh Pharaoh" you any day ( Read more... )

Good heavens. How is it that today I have 1) slept in, 2) showered, 3) gone to Whole Foods, and 4) watched The Philadelphia Story with friends, and all I want to do is take a nap? Pathetic ( Read more... )

The entire agenda for my evening is as follows: 1) Acorn Squash with Chile-Lime Vinaigrette; 2) watch Glee; 3) knit; 4) pack for Rhiiinebeck! Which is tomooooorrow, sort of!

Anything else and I will just burst, or else collapse and not wake up until Thanksgiving. Which would be bad, because then I would miss all the knitting, and seeing carmen_sandiego(The sad ( Read more... )
