1. So I wasn't going to post today as I've flailed QUITE enough over the last week. But WHO AM I KIDDING. SERIOUSLY. Just WHO do you think you're kidding, self?

2. Let me say it now: I LOVE THE CHINESE. 我愛中國人啊!!! Aside from the cracktasticness that is tudou.com, noldoparma and I - both of whom are now hopelessly hooked again on old-school Chinese pop - were

Meryl is just... ARGH. I haven't the words. I think she IS on Letterman tonight! I'm loving the Meryl interviews - everytime she hits the interview circuit, I just can't wait for more awesome. She was adorable on Letterman for Mamma Mia!

And yes! I'm not sure when it came out - sometime this past week. EXCITED. You'll get yours SOON, I'm sure!

Have a good weekend too!

5. Well, I'm certain Julia must have the 13-track version. Since she's such a fan and all. ;)

lolz john denver and the muppets

Meryl is cool. Did I tell you I saw her in Mother Courage and Her Children at the Delacorte? Got up at 3am to get those tickets. LOL.

[ellixian]

Wow, no, you never mentioned that you got to see her live! I bet she was INCREDIBLE. I've seen photos and it looked like it was a powerhouse performance. Lucky!

[vertical_chaos]

Oh, yeah. It was amazing. Didn't even feel like three or more hours...however long that play was. LOL. Well, except the parts (few and far between) when she wasn't on stage.

[ellixian]

It was epic-long - I remember reading about how she was basically onstage crying and emoting three hours a night. Crazy!

[unwisetrack]

Yeah. My last few days has been fulled out with Meryl but I can't complain because it has been so much fun and yes, she makes it really easy to follow. Have you seen her on Letterman? In that interview you could really tell that she was SICK, but still looking amazing.. who can do that? Other than Meryl? WHO!? Not me..

[ellixian]

Oh no, I haven't seen her on Letterman yet - video isn't on youtube!! And I really should sleep. I'm sure it'll be uploaded at some point soon, and I'll watch it then.

She's been sick for ages though! She was sick in the Mamma Mia interview I linked, sick during Good Morning America... makes ME feel better about being sick. Though I look nowhere near that amazing, sigh. :P

[unwisetrack]

Yeah, maybe two weeks. Or less. But it seems to be a longer time because she did record Letterman show in same time when Doubt premire in New York was, so when she really was sick and then there did come Good Morning America where she was better than in Letterman and the The View where her sickness is just a little memory (all who knew she was sick really badly can see it well). But I think it's funny that they did record Letterman several days ago but they show it today (or was it yesterday?) in U.S. so.. it's making everything really messed up about her health because first you see her when she isn't that sick anymore and then you see her when she really is sick. I actually haven't saw the whole interview on Letterman, just a little preview clip. Hehe. But that clip did tell everything about how sick she was. I guess I haven't been that sick in several years. I guess.. hehe.

Gosh.. so much rambling about Meryl and her health, sorry for that! :D I just.. get lost with it I guess. Hehe.

[ellixian]

Oh yes, I remember now that she taped Letterman earlier, when she hadn't recovered a little bit yet - so she really WAS quite sick in Letterman. What I saw of that interview, anyway, I'm still waiting for a full version to be posted! Poor thing really was SO ill. And yet so funny! "I didn't dare to cancel", LMAO.

More Murney Muppet love. I might have totally dug out that CD after reading the interview. <3

[ellixian]

Ahahaha, she's awesome. I've got to look for that CD at some point!
