Today is crazy making!

If I reschedule something, and you say it's ok? You do not get to call me 3 times in an hour to ask why I rescheduled.

omnis, I think you're right. We're just going to have to go with regular screen. We're still good with noon though (it's actually better since J has an appointment at 3). Don't know about Balcony. J was saying he wanted to stay in, but maybe if I tell him you're going he'll change his mind.

Jilli! Freaking cool!

Aims's classmate only speaks American.

"Learn the language. At least learn key phrases so that you can get help if you need it. I had trouble the first time I went to Europe because I didn't speak any French or British."

On behalf of the people of Europe (and I venture to suspect that the people of Asia, Africa, Australasia and the Middle East will join us on this one), I have a message for your acquaintance: "Stay home. No, really."

(Could you translate it into American for her?)

Meanwhile, I have ventured out into the world, where I have purchased a book, eaten dinner at Sizzler for the first time in a year and a half, and scored Season 4 Doctor Who on DVD, along with season 4 of Numb3rs, and the recent TV adaptation of Sense and Sensibility made by Andrew "Best ever version of Pride and Prejudice, [although I have reservations about that whole Colin-Firth-in -the-lake thing, but evidently the rest of womankind loved it]" Davies.

Have watched first 2 episodes of Doctor Who (after spending the past couple of days rewatching season 3. Well, most of Season 3. I decided to give the finale a bit of a bodyswerve) and I find that I am in love with Donna Noble. She made me cry in both episodes. She is made of awesome.

Also, I want to find Steven Moffat and ply him with beer and chocolates. I'd forgotten how good the script of Blink was. I mean, it's a lovely concept, and the cast is v. good, but that's some cracking dialogue right there. Love love love. (Also, I cannot decide whether I fancy Sally Sparrow or Billy more. But there's a lot of fancying.)

And I really do want a T shirt that reads "The Angels Have The Phone Box." Very much.

Sure.

"American Idol is on."

Hey, Fay!

Miss you!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!

Hey congrats to Steph and Jilli! So cool!

Oh, me too. I adore her. What a terrific companion/foil for the Doctor.

Fay, did you know that Hettie MacDonald directed Blink, she who directed Beautiful Thing? (please tell me you've seen BT)

Hello, gorgeous girl. Life is short and you are hot.

Oh yeah, we can haz famous Bitches!

Ah, smonster, you're putting Billy into the lead there! (And he did have a lovely accent too...)

But - no, I must admit I don't think I have seen Beautiful Thing.

Is it a film?

Red's or something in your neck of the woods?

Red's! My go-to when I'm playing hooky during the week.

Had a lovely lunch at the Gulu-Gulu. The key is don't go there too hungry and understand that the hipsters are disorganized and you can have a lovely lunch. I had 2 pints of Ommegang Hennepin and a brie and apple crepe.

Now I'm watching Law & Order on the Tivo.
