The dregs of Thanksgiving

Mmmturkey.

I keep meaning to tell you a couple of stories about my mom, but I never quite get around to it. This may be in part because I can't figure out a way to turn "Mom happened to see Closer on cable and won't stop talking about it" into an actual story. The best part is that I'm pretty sure she didn't like the movie, but she spent about a ( Read more... )

music, school, conversations with my mother, best of, icons, shopping, heroine addict

Hmmmm ... Mom and I were wondering what to do tomorrow. Maybe we need to go check out the crying virgin.

Or maybe we should just grab lunch.

"Would this happen if he didn't have that damn British accent? Yes, because you're a slut. But it wouldn't have happened twice. And not while his mum was visiting."
LOL Oh, burn.

I can say with all honesty that my jaw dropped at the end of your mom's story. Seriously. WTF. LOL

Well, I think they're working on it at SF (absurd & humorous thread), and there's always the thread in the link itself. But yeah, the yellow guy is driving me nuts.

Well shit. We gotta tell the SFers, man.

Oh,you never fail to amuse. My Thanksgiving included my six year old cousin standing on my sixteen year old brother's stomach and jumping off of him while saying "it's a trampoline!" *laughs*
I also just had to put in my two cents about Pride and Prejudice: Matthew MacFayden = Hot. You are so right. He did the eye-acting thing perfectly, I mean, those few looks he gives Lizzie throughout the movie are so darn adorable, you just want to hug him and never let go. And the end...not going to spoil it for anyone, but my reaction was "Mr. Darcy, if you asked me to marry you (of course, if you were fortunately real) right then, I would say 'Heck yes!'" I personally liked it tons better than the ending of the BBC version. And yes! A good adaptation that's not going to take up five hours! I still love Colin Firth as Darcy all the same, but two hours is a heck of a lot shorter.
