Thank GOD for this post-- why don't you do ones like these more often? They're my faaaaavourite. I could probably do a whole post just on the Kay Thompson/Fred Astaire dancing sequence in Funny Face if I tried! ;)

YOUR birthday is Friday! Happy early birthday!

Also, apropos of nothing, you were in my dream last night. I came back from vacation and got the mail and I had a card from you. A sympathy card because apparently my grandmother had died and I found out from your card. Egads!

On another note, you do HAVE the new Josh Pyke album in its entirety, right? Before we had that talk I was like, oh, she means Memories & Dust, which isn't even new now. But if you don't have one or the other of them, tell me and I'll upload!

I don't know! I should do more of them, THEY'RE MY FAVORITE TOO. I could talk about ~old movies~ forever. Which is probably good, because I usually cannot be bothered to see new ones.

IT IS! Thank you! I'm getting old.

Ahahahahahaaaaaaaa.

By new I meant Chimney's Afire! So yes, I do have both of those. BUT THANK YOU FOR OFFERING!

So..erm, I was trying to be sneaky and send you a birthday card when I realized that I'm not sure if the address I have for you is correct..I'm pretty sure it's your home address and even though I know it would get to you, I'd rather send it to your school address or whatever. Idk. ANYWAYS, now that I've RUINED the surprise, I need your address and you'll just get your card late :(

OH, you're so sweet! Is it the 101 Pearl address you have? Because that should work fine, I'm actually living at home this semester because I AM CRAP AT JOB-HUNTING.

Lol I guess I had your old school address then. I couldn't remember if you'd moved or anything since last Christmas, which is what I have your address from. So that's your street address, and then is 80310 still your zip? Make sure before I mail it off haha :)

Yes, that's my street address and my zip is actually 80302 here! (80310 is a zip code they made up entirely for the school, ha.) But the town is the same.

Mmm, this was wonderful. The celebrities today are just NOT THE SAME. >:( They just don't have the cool sophistication and grace and wit.

And happy early birthday, by the way! In case I don't get to say it on the day!

It's like the world used up their limited supply in the 1940s. Lucky for them, SUCKS FOR US.

Thank you, Emma!

I KNOW. I want to say that I wish I'd been alive then, but it's not entirely true. To experience Hollywood like it was then, though ... that would have been amazing. But now we have celebrities-who-are-celebrities-for-no-reason and reality TV? WOO. Not.

:D ♥

This is way too pretty. Way too pretty. I think I might need to go read biographies of the two of them now... their angst! Their clashing! Their tragedy! They're both too gorgeous human beings. I can't get over Ava Gardner. I think I need to go research how to build a time machine, because I would like to breathe the same air as some of these people of that era.

HAVE FUN IN LONDON! AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! And yesssssssss, do, because THEY ARE ALL-CONSUMING. Love them as much as I do so I don't feel as weirdly obsessed!

I wish I were in London! I didn't mean me, it's just where tashternal lives.
