I love my new t-rex icon. Shelby has suggested I move to an all-t-rex-icon format, and I'm inclined to agree.

Am currently watching Dirty Dancing on WE, the film wherein Patrick Swayze a) acts mostly with his pelvis b) is all smooth-skinned and not age-spotted c) and doesn't have any gray hairs yet. Damn he pretty, and also young enough (in 1987) for people my age to actually feel okay about obsessing over his extremely white teeth.

1. I'm finally, finally caught up on my friendslist. I didn't comment as much as I could have, but suffice it to say that I have great love for everybody, and I hope it wasn't 102 degrees in your neck of the woods today, and when can we take a road trip and come visit you, or vice versa?

update: Chris Young has officially won the mother like the winning thing he is, as predicted. Big suprise. If you want to know why, look no further. Watch the video clips, down on the left-hand side. I must recommend "Drinking Me Lonely" in particular, because goddamn.

As tagged by sbryan, six random things about me:

1. Whenever I burp or belch or get the hiccups or do anything which usually merits an "excuse me" in polite society, I say "excuse me," even if I'm alone.
   
2. I really enjoy watching movies by myself. It took a while to get used to -- my first semester up here when I wasn't living with anyone and didn't have ( Read more... )

So, I'm watching the new Pride and Prejudice, and oh my God. Everyone is so incredibly adorable. Bingley is bouncy and effusive and says stupid things and falls all over himself, and Jane is lovely, and Wickham's cheekbones are particularly impressive (in completely unrelated news, when the hell is Ioan making another film?). I haven't seen ( Read more... )

Dear Everyone-Involved-with-Nashville-Star:
Thank you for letting everyone sing last night, because they all rock really hard. Also thank you for bearing out the prediction I made at the beginning of the show, and thank you, thank you, thank you for sending the final four out on tour together, because omg.
Sincerely ( Read more... )

Spending Sunday night at the blues jam at Famous Dave's is the ONLY way to spend Sunday night. THE ONLY, I tell you ( Read more... )

Because when you type "cowboy hat" into GettyImages, you end up with 35 pages of hat, which is way too much even for me:

"cowboy hat" AND "man" AND "one man only" AND "horse" OR "dog" OR "guitar"
I tried cowboy hats and coffee cups but all that got me was a shot of three old men drinking steaming black Folgers out of white crockery mugs at the Liar ( Read more... )

OMG we missed Nashville Star last night! Does anyone know if they do reruns? We must know! I believe Heist is on tonight, however. We (unfortunately) got addicted to it last week, and oooh it is good. Damn you, television!

So we went to see Basic Instinct 2 last night, and collectively we have three things to say about it:

1. David Morrissey is ( Read more... )
