Never let your parents' friends meet your heroes.
I've loved Stephen Fry for years, for oh so many reasons. He's a voice of reason and articulation in a world in which language is a disappearing art. He's an extraordinarily gifted writer and actor, and at the same time seems to be an unassuming, kind sort of person, a good sport ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: Hard habit to break
I have so many bad habits that if I got rid of them all, I might vanish into thin air. It would be easier to list the ones I don't have. I don't smoke, bite my nails, chew my hair, or any of that disgusting stuff. I don't drink to excess, or shop til I drop ( Read more... ) -

OMG. Horrible, horrible, day.
I can't find my date book. I've got things written down wrong on my calendar. I'm having memory lapses again. I was 100% sure my interview today was for 1:30. It was for 1:00. So that's screwed, although they did tell me I got more done in my quickie interview than the others they interviewed that day managed in the full time. I told them ( Read more... ) -

Opens up her red mouth
And gold word ribbons rope and rodeo
The dark clouds in bouquet above
For how long will this dark age last?
For how long must ( Read more... ) -
Skipping to number one

SONNET 116 Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on ( Read more... ) -
TV update
Weeds is back! Hurray!
But I'm about tired of the Mexican druglord stuff. I think you have to live in California for that stuff to be all that meaningful or resonant. I miss Agrestic. I miss when the people resembled people I've actually met. Jenifer Jason Leigh at least brings back a little of that. She's incredible and she and MLP make an ( Read more... )
