Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

RIP Richard Pryor [link]

Oh, that is sad.

oof, long day today. I got to the hotel in Phoenix just after a huge rush of people, so I didn't get checked in and in bed until close to 1:30 last night, then I got up and on the road for the two and a half hour two hour drive (this is me, after all) to Tucson. Much shopping with Mom has happened since then, including a trip to Target where I found one of those Isaac tulle skirts Betsy mentioned. I did some Christmas shopping too.

Now to nap.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

yeah, I still have not left the big comfy chair. and I am still watching Ellens. Yes folks, I had 11 episodes on my DVR. But given that I've seen 7.5 and have done that in 5 hours is pretty good. Thing is I am getting hungry, so I might have to stand up.

Can't you get someone to bring you food to your chair, msbelle?

Always Anti-fascist!

I'm shocked at myself...so much killing and I haven't weighed in. I think Bunk on The Wire tried to kill a mouse with his police revolver once. He was very drunk and I don't think he got it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

RIP, Richard Pryor

David Boreanaz is getting Punk'd. Supposedly his wife cut her mouth on broken glass in her salad. He was so pissed at the waiter.

I liked that one. I like when you can tell they are freaking out, but they don't act badly.

There's a whole lot of Newcomb College and Tulane College tradition that they're getting rid of there.

That's a shame. And it is all the individual things that make a big disaster, you know?

I way overslept this morning, which turned out to be awesome. I still got to my noon meeting on time, AND got an extra hour of sleep. So it's all good.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That obit understates Richard Pryor's importance, I think. I think he's the greatest standup who ever lived, and one of the great comics in any medium. Absolute genius in his ability to dig into the pain of the human comedy, and utterly gifted at physical comedy/acting to express everything from a cheetah to a heart attack.
