Up before sunrise is too early, Kathy!

I like "Batman Bayou" for Heather.

Oh, and I just saw this excerpt from a new book by an Irish journalist who did an interview with Bush that became rather confrontational.

I remember that. It was all over the news. She was something of a hero for a while.

Don't know if Susan W (and other Sean Bean fans) have heard this yet--he's filming another Sharpe movie!!

Heather, how about Belle Reve? It will make the Batman fans blink, which is never a bad thing. :-)

Heather, since Phoebe is my actual name, I beg you not to use it. It's hard enough when people start talking about their animals having fleas. Someone else posting with my (very unusual!) name would probably cause a mental breakdown. Especially if my mother started posting.

Hm. Am being demanding these days. Sorry. Hope I am not unreasonable.

flea, in the show "Veronica Mars", which I'm currently watching, there's a character (well, a dead one) named Lilly. I continually spell her name wrong, "Lily", because if I ever try to spell it right, I end up writing my own name, no matter the different first letter and all, so I totally understand your request. Regardless, I think "Phoebe" is a lovely name.

[Edited because in a post about spelling things wrong at least I should spell existing words properly]

Bailey on GA is brilliant this week. And undiluted.

'Whole generation' lost in quake.

Fire hits Wallace and Gromit sets.

I think I'm offended at how little coverage of the earthquake I've heard/seen.

Also, I called in sick to work, after showering and getting dressed. I Just could not get it together. Bleh.

The only reason I'm surprised by this is because I thought it'd already happened:

Pregnant actress Katie Holmes has fired her publicist Leslie Sloane-Zelnick after nine years together, and has hired her fiance Tom Cruise's sister as her new spokesperson. The Batman Begins star and Cruise announced her pregnancy last week, which comes only six months after the couple began dating. Since Holmes began her controversial relationship with Cruise, she has parted ways with her management company, agents and now Sloane-Zelnick. Holmes will now be represented by Cruise's sister and fellow Scientologist Lee Anne DeVette, who became the actor's spokesperson last year after he left his longtime publicist Pat Kingsley. Sloane-Zelnick tells the New York Daily News, "We were with her for nine years. We wish her the best. She has chosen to work with her future sister-in-law. We wish her well, and congratulate her on her happy news."

Damn. Is it OK for me to feel bad for Katie?

ION, I had to be phlebotomized again. She drew about twelve little containers of blood - way more than I've ever had drawn (for tests) before. They wanna figure out what caused my little blood clot....
