tickyboxes are good.

How was your trip?

wheee 'suela's back!

did you have fun ? tell us all about it. did you like it as much as my DH?

Just watch VM. enjoied Aly immenslie and yes I buy the Leo thing, but mostly, because he just seems so naive. He may be older than veronica - but in life experience, he is the same age or younger.

but then again I really dont find VM real in the same way that BTVS was/is.

Oh, it was great fun. There were dolphins and weird foods and lots and lots of good beer. And it wrapped up with 3 days at the beach. And I bought a very cool shirt in Auckland on the way home.

NZ has lots and lots of cattle, not too many people, and strange foods. And silly-looking birds.

That sounds great, Consuela. I hope you have lots of tales and pictures to share.

Who is going to have the guts to pull the plug on the Pope?

Isn't it interesting when you find out the answer to a rhetorical question is "Matt the Bruins fan"? Here, I've got another one: can't anybody do anything about these damn hippies?

A Bachelor is a dorm fridge, a hot plate, and shower with no tub. In fact, you sleep in the tub, a two by four folds out over it and you sort of balance on it.

OK, I preach the virtues of the efficiency apartment, but that is just too tiny. If you could fit every person on the planet into New Jersey with one square meter of space each, we should be able to find room in California for at least an air mattress.

With regard to looking into Putin's soul, a German poll in Die Welt recently put Bush up for election against Vladimir Putin. The results? Bush lost by five points.

Hi Consuela!

ita found a new apartment.

So not true. She did everything else, but I found it. Look, if you're going to step all over my chances of getting any cupcakes from her, do it up front. Don't stab me in the back like that. It hurts. And I'll totally remember when I'm looking for you.

It's 11:30, and I'm hungry. I am very lazy, and do not wish to make any food, which is something of a problem.

Also, we once again watched a boy movie. This one was a documentary about the war in Iraq. It wasn't as depressing as I thought it was going to be, but it was still not particularly fun at all. Although the soldier who came to speak about it was kind of cute. Very serious, understandably. But cute.

What is with all the boy movies?

Alibelle, I hope you have somebody lined up to go see the Ice Princess movie with Michelle Trachtenberg.

I skimmed through the Stars Without Makeup show. My notes...

Don't fuck with Bjork!

Go Bjork!

You can't make Cindy Crawford look bad.

You can't make Winona Ryder look bad.

It's cheating to uglify people with photoshop.

Whitney Houston - skanky crack whore.

Britney Spears - skanky white trash.

Diana Ross - not bad considering she's about 62! WTF do they expect from people who had hits in the 1960s?

Melanie Griffith - ::shudder::

Also, Jesus! No wonder Cristina Ricci became anorexic! So fucked up.

Speaking of which...

TiVo Catchup On Jon Stewart:

Rachel Weisz has really really short hair! OMG! I may expire from happiness. I'm already pre-ordering whatever movie she's currently shooting.

Cristina Ricci - I'd been worried about you turning into an anorexic Hollywood Pod Peson (cf. Janeanne Garofolo), but you were pretty funny and smart, plus you're dating Adam Goldberg (who rocks).

Mmmm, Rachel.

Also, Keira Knightly now has short hair. Mmmm, Keira.

Seth Green's new animated show on Adult Swim, Robot Chicken, was on tonight. It had a surprising number of old school Battlestar Galactica jokes. Though the Transformer with prostate cancer was better.

Alibelle, I hope you have somebody lined up to go see the Ice Princess movie with Michelle Trachtenberg.

Actually, I do want to see that, but that is exactly the sort of movie that is difficult to talk people into, for some reason. Oh well.

Night.
