Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Seriously. I'd do a Murray Hill guy.

And I don't do guys.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Okay, grump. You've moved on, fine. I've been catching up and now I'm posting this:

And my Gibson hatred has grown so strong I'm tempted to roll people outside the box office to prevent him from getting their money.

Hee. Me too. Glad I'm not the only one.

Oh, and I hate John Rhys Davies. Not enough to ruin LotR (that'd be a lot of hate, considering the love), but I don't think I'll watch him in anything for a long, long time.

Well, to be honest, in all the group shots it was Bret Beattie--JRD only did the facial reaction shots. And it saddens me, but I must agree with you. Sad, because in Shogun and RoS and even Raiders (but not the third Raiders), he was wonderful.

Val Kilmer might be in this category for me. Because when he's on - Real Genius, Tombstone, Top Secret - so fucking charismatic and funny and enjoyable. But he's got a really low batting average and seems to do a lot of highly indifferent work.

Oh my, yes. SO much promise, and all squandered. I can't figure it out.

I think Meg Ryan's trouble is she has the looks of the stereotypical USian girl next door: sunny, bright, cheerful, wide-eyed, blonde, blue-eyed, etc. And the much darker and more complicated soul of say, an Ava Gardner. She's tired of the predictable Sandra Dee roles, but when she manages to snag a darker role, she can't sell it. And it makes her cranky.

Thunderheart, on the other hand, was a travesty in filmmaking.

I loved Graham Greene in that. No matter the problems with the movie, or anybody else in it, I love it because it brought me Walter Crow Horse.

And all the vintage stuff is gorgeous--especially the b/w dress with the petal detail in the skirt.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Lunch, from the caf, was disgusting. Ah, well. Massage tonight.

Question #1: Workplace hummers ... no, not like that ... do people not realise they're humming at their desk? Not realise that it's probably irritating? Or just not care.

Question #2: Same as above for open-mouth-gum-chewers

Question #3: Foottappers-against-the-furniture?

Question #3: Foottappers-against-the-furniture?

I am sometimes guilty of this one, usually when I've got my headphones on. I try to stop as soon as I notice I'm doing it.

It's not his work, explicitly. It's him.

Isn't it just? I really really need this. And then I need someplace fabulous to go and have tea and cucumber sandwiches.

I can't answer to one or two, but the tapping? I do it. I don't notice it until my foot slips and GONG (from the back panel of my desk.)

Thankfully, my officemate claims it does not drive him nuts.

I can still taste the rosemary from my sandwich, 5 hours ago. It's kinda weird.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I hum without realizing it. I try not to at work, but I honestly don't know I'm doing it when I do. My grandfather did, too, so it could be genetic. (eta: thank you, Gus)

I am a notorious hummer (and that sounds very, very bad!) but I just don't realize I'm doing it. I sometimes even sing.
