this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Redford? I think he just looks sort of surgically tweaked now.

Yeah, but what about 10-ish years ago? When he was pre-tweaked but post-young!pretty?

I think young Paul Newman is hot like burning.

HELL yes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was going to suggest Paul Newman, but then I remembered that I think young Paul Newman is hot like burning.

Seriously. I've never been a Redford fan, but I do think he hit his peak in his 50s (pre-surgery).

And now I have "Father Figure" in my head.

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

I leave them to you to comment on.

Freaky.

I had to get to work 2 hours early today to give a presentation to the monday morning attorney meeting. As a reward, I get to give the same presentation to the paralegals tomorrow.

I would rather have a cookie, or George Clooney.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Redford should have just gone with the aging.

Bowie has, at long last, begun to age. I don't think he's fighting it.

I can't honestly say there is nothing I would ever do... I've had circles under my eyes since I was a TODDLER and if they make me look sixty when I'm forty I'd probably look into it. A breast lift to take weight off my injured shoulder is likely inevitable -- and I certainly won't mind that it'll make me look better. But people seem to go nuts.

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

One of the student instructors yesterday asked me if I was going to fight them in their test.

"Yes." I said. "I'll be there for you."

And then it was horrible, like the words were being yanked out of my mouth on a rope--I mean, I was scoring a test at the time and trying to focus on that.

"These five words I swear to you...when you breathe I wanna be the air for you..."

The song's been stuck in my head since then. It's been almost 48 hours. I really want Father Figure to supplant it, but it's just not working.

Speaking of music, I bought my first iTunes video yesterday, just because I wanted to see how it'd look. Cry Me A River by Justin Timberlake. I feel vaguely dirty. I swear, I searched for a Prince video, but they only had new stuff.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

ita, you owe me a new set of ears.
