Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Jesus Christ. Where The Wild Things Are. It's just playing here. I've never seen it before.
I think I shall be finding some wine and starting from the beginning. It's like Xmas.

My favorite elderly female Brit is Dame Maggie Smith, who will always be Miss Jean Brodie in my head. Even when she is playing a nun in a Whoopi Goldberg vehicle.
Right there with you Nutty, though I've always been more aware of her as herself than any particular role.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
If anyone finds links for any of the best speeches, that would help soothe my jangled nerves. I am having a terribly fraught workday.
