OK, I just saw an ad for a movie version of Nancy Drew. And it looks like a catastrophe, and I've never even really liked Nancy Drew! It's almost like they're turning Nancy into a kind of Deputy Barney Fyfe and they're sending her to hyper-with-it girl's school of some sort. I have no idea if there's a mystery involved or if it's just small town nerdie girl gets a makeover. Which is just wrong, because Nancy was always with-it.
Oh, and the ads for the new Die Hard movie make me think that John McCain is who Jack Bauer really wants to be.
Bartleby the early years?
"Bartleby and the Scribner school co-eds"?
So, uh, jury duty. Thought it'd be a one-day boring toil of civic duty. May well turn into half my summer vacation gone on a civil suit. YAY.
Oh, Emily. That sucks...just...ugh.
I need someone to come start my coffee IV.
ION, I need pizza.
All the pizza places are closed, and I have no pizza in the house. No 24-hour grocery stores around here. I need to think ahead better. (HA!)
I have pizza, vw. Come on by, don't look at the mess.
I settled for a frozen dinner. But, next time, I'm totally coming to get pizza at your place.
In fledgling news: the two bigger ones are gone, I hope flown away to start their lives. The fat fuzzy one is still there. I hope its parents are out hunting. If I could regurgitate something for the cute helpless fuzzbal I would!
Ok. I just named Melville's main character, Dobrila. I may not be in my right mind.

connie, though I was excited when I saw the first trailer, I got a little nervous when I found out it's Len Wiseman, director of the Underworld movies, who's directing.
I got less nervous when I read a thing about how Wiseman has always been a huge fan of the Die Hard movies (especially the first one), and when he read an early draft that had (for example) John McClain showing up at a police station asking, "What can I do to help," Wiseman said oh no no no no no NO. John McClain does not ask "What can I do to help," he shows up and says, "It's okay, I'm here now."
