I am freezing in the Angelica lobby. like hat on and hoodie up freezing. but it looks pretty outside, just too damn cold.

I got the pox from Ross C. in second grade. And then infected the rest of the class because mom thought they were just spiderbites (I'd normally get a lot of those anyway.) The advantage was that since the whole neighborhood pretty much got it at once, we still had playmates. When we weren't whining and scratching.

Lunch. Need lunch.

Ahh, the Angelika. I used to live just down the block from there. Nothing like a Saturday night being herded like cattle onto the escalator by contemptuous and bored ushers.

I never come here at night. Usually only for morning shows when it is empty. Extra bonus today, the escalators are broken. I love the space and the subways rumbling under the theaters, I just don't know why they cannot put in double doors into the lobby so as to keep it temperate.

Yeah, msbelle, it's nice in the daytime--you can sit on the windowsill and watch folks walking by and maybe have a brownie or something delicious. Have a great movie day!

Hence my feeling that it would be best to be in a heated car -- outside, but warm!

You know, I don't think I've ever seen a movie there. Weird. That can't be right.

OK, this is somewhat annoying -- Bravo's doing a Project Runway marathon today, but they aren't showing the first one! I mean, that was a real episode, right -- the one where the blonde and the now-thinner guy got cut? Well, I guess I didn't see this one either (or at least most of it), so that's OK.

Here's my real question -- did Heidi actually "Models, this also is a competition for you as well" every single time??

I think so, because it was the prelude to the previous challenge's winner deciding on his/her model for the current challenge ("It's a motherfucking walkoff!"). I'm taping the first 8 hours ('cause that's all that'll fit on my tape) of the marathon for my mom (the rest of the season is going to be reshown on Wednesday, so I'll catch them then).

Mom's never seen any reality TV, but has agreed to check out the tapes when I mail them to her because it is all about clothes and sewing. All the women on my mom's side of the family sew (except for me), and my Aunt Evelyn actually attended a clothes design school in Chicago back in the late '60s. I think she'll really like watching the different challenges.

Why did no one ever help her with the construction of that sentence, is my question. Although, Tyra says "You're still in the running toward becoming America's Next Top Model" every time, and that's equally wacked.

I got chicken pox my senior year of high school.(My brother got it from a classmate, brought it home and gave it to me) It timed out well, as I had finished my college applications and interviews, and it was between the mid-winter dance and the prom. I was bored out of my mind...
