Someone on my LJ friendslist has an icon of a cupcake. Having scrolled past it, oh, twenty or so times, I would knock over a herd of nuns to get a cupcake at this point.
Makes me hungry just about daily.
Though today my sweet tooth was taken care of by the gothy Harry Potter-looking boy who works at the chocolate store. I am as a truffle in his hands. All gooey. (In my defense, Lee made me go in to the store. Because I had forgotten how sweetly delicious that boy was. And we're certain he's well over 18. Maybe even 21. Maybe.) I've got a crush and a marionberry truffle.
I just watched my tape of The Riches, and I have to say....I don't know what I think of it. I want to like it, but I'm not quite sure.
Eddie Izzard's accent, though, is driving me BATSHIT. As is his haircut.

And facial hair -- that's just WRONG.
Recorded, Beverly. Want me to burn you off a recording of the third installment?
I'm so glad things are starting to be revealed. My god, I swear I have had my eyes open all this time. I don't know if it's a different rhythm, or they're more information dense, but if I blink during most of these British mystery things, I have no idea what's happening. And I still don't get Nicholas.
My nervous system is fucking up again. Sending all sorts of weirdness.
Steph, I heard that the first ep of The Riches is the weakest, if that helps you any.
Are there places in LA that deliver cupcakes? There totally should be.

This phrase gets batted around a lot these days, but I really have to say, it's unlike anything else I've ever seen on TV. S and I really liked it.

I guess I've seen him often enough with facial hair or otherwise generally being quite manly that his appearance didn't seem wrong to me.
But yes, his accent was so much his "American accent" from his standup routines, I couldn't hear it as anything other than Eddie's silly American accent.
I've been forced to consider my wedding because my mother thinks about it often. If I don't shut down an idea immediately, she takes it as gospel. Otherwise, when I actually did get married, I'd hear something like 'what do you mean you don't want a purple lame bow on your butt? you didn't say no when I mentioned it in 1995"
It wasn't the manliness of the facial hair -- it just made him look similar to someone else, though I can't think of who.

"Hi! I'm Crazy Eddie! I put babies on spikes!"
And I said this before, but it bears repeating. I absolutely ADORED that
his youngest son was a crossdresser,
and his parents
were totally okay with that.
It has been suggested that his facial hair makes him look like Gregory Itzin, most notably from 24. But now I can't find a picture of
Itzin
with facial hair to demonstrate.

Teppy is me.
Has anyone here seen Blood Ties the series? I saw an ad for it in a magazine and want to know if it's worth checking out.
I think Vortex mentioned it in Boxed Set a while back, Cashmere. She mentioned it somewhere.
