Gris, Raul Esparza was on Pushing Daisies tonight.
Yeah! And as a
love interest
for
Kristen Chenoweth!
I sense some fantastic
musical numbers
in future episodes, which is more than enough to keep me watching despite my "Do I love it or hate it?" ambiguity about the show.
Fay, is there ever a time you're NOT "totally English from head to toe"?
Occasionally my right hand thinks it's Egyptian.
Seriously, though, nobody's ever actually
said
that to me. I don't think. Um. Although my current boss was reminiscing about her first sight of me in Thailand, in particularly CrazyEnglishwomanAbroad mode, arriving in the airport with floorlength skirt and the lovely straw hat I bought in San Francisco cla.)mped onto my head, wheeling along a suitcase and a meowing catbox.
(Well, the contents of the box were doing the actual meowing. Obviously. Not the box itself. Um.)
I just bought a book about Singapore. It sounds
very
exciting!

Trade the cat for a kid and you could have been Anna Leonowens.

Big time.
And I
am
here teaching small Siamese children. Some of whom are related to the king. And I do, being me, randomly break into song with alarming frequency.
Getting to know you
getting to know all about you
getting to like you
getting to hope you like me
(Also? I R DUM. I didn't make the whole Then Siam = Now Thailand connection until the Anna Leonowens reference. It's like I've been looking at the whole country thinking, "Ben is Glory?")
This
senses a trend with ND... as his xmas costume had a lil "rudolph" lighting up his kilt.
Got me earwormed with You Light Up My Kilt. Damn you omnis!
One of our guidance counselors here has a doctorate and insists that she be addressed as Dr. whatsername. The kids are almost universally contemptuous of this. And I think the insisting is a bit much, but I do wish we could get the message through that there are different kinds of doctors, and that the title has to do with rigorous study rather than ability to use a stethoscope. I have a pretty deep admiration for anyone who's willing to put up with all the crap involved in getting that D.
Obsessing about words AND donating food to the starving, what could be better? [link]
