Quite, actually. It’s more than a little upsetting, but she was pretty good.
that new ford fiesta commercial gets it. Also that braddock, pa levis ad is surprisingly touching (I’m in Pa. that’s why) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p63BwVm_ojw
and with that, it suddenly has. Thanks Mufasa.
No, you know what I saw this weekend because it was like, 100 degrees and I needed air conditioning and it’s July? Get him to the Greek. The worst. Just a pathetic effort on the part of everyone involved- an ugly movie that had no grasp on humanity (at first, with Elizabeth Moss’ character I thought it was women who they just didn’t get, but nobody made sense in that movie) that made my bad weekend (got dumped! yay) exponentially worse. There was nothing redeeming about that movie, made by adults for adults, and it almost makes me wish that I had seen eclipse instead because while I wouldn’t have understood it (who is that girl, why can’t she just pick a boy and be happy for a bit, I mean, they’re twelve, what’s the hurry with all the marriage stuff?) it probably at least would have given me some sort of honest depiction of a kind of human emotion.
this and Savage Love are the only reason I wake up on Wednesday monrings and slog through my day, and this: “unrequited interspecies sex-wanting” is the phrase that will make the rest of the days until next wednesday bareable. Jus’ sayin’
Couldn’t turn FX off, eh?
I think “young Ke¢ha” will be the best thing I will read all day and yet somehow this does not worry me.

this thing made me both incurably sad and also very angry, but there’s a little joy to be found.

see, because now it’s one in the morning and I’m already on my way back to work and all I am consumed by is the worry, the fear, that any delight the whale exhibits is just me personifying the whale- oh look, he’s smiling (well, no, they always do that.) or oh, he’s clearly dancing at the end (because floating up and down is dancing?) What I’m saying is I would like some scientific proof that whales dance like this so I can know if he was, in fact, truly enjoying himself before I can allow myself this win for the most charming thing.
Happy (belated) birthday, Gabe.
