Kat, the dresses are absolutely adorable-- I'm envious of anyone who can sew, since I'm utterly hopeless. Doubly embarrassing, considering my mother's prowess.
QoS looks wicked interesting, but then again, I'm a sucker for Bond-- and the Aston Martin. Daniel Craig is definitely of the sexy, not traditionally good-looking variety. Beautiful bone structure and the shot of him coming over the ridge wearing a tux and toting the machine gun are definitely wicked sexy.
And finally, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Hil!
Adorable dresses, Kat. I made clothes for my nieces and nephews, but never for my own kids. Didn't have time once I had kids.
Not a Bond fan, but Craig is a sexy Bond.
Eeep, I hope the waterworks stop soon. Flooding is not fun.
Happy Birthday, Hil!
Happy birthday, Hil!!
Am I crazy, or is Hugh Laurie a brunet and Boris Becker a redhead?
I got out of bed a couple of minutes earlier than usual because the people on the radio were making me INSANE. It was a woman from Salon bitching about the image of Michelle Obama as primarily a mother. I mean, it is semi-crap, because of course she's had an important career, but she is putting it on hold right now. I wonder if/when we'll have a First Spouse who keeps their own job, and wonder if it will even be an issue until we have a female president. I just don't think it's tenable for the spouse to have their own life.
AND I think it was legitimate for people to be annoyed at how Hilary Clinton went into the White House -- it's one thing to make a case for the spouse to have expertise and a role, but I do think they played it wrong.
Anyway, I apparently woke up ranting.

I think security issues would make it very difficult for a First Spouse to remain in and be effective at certain jobs, regardless of said spouse's gender. Can you imagine the disruption to, say, a high school if the FS wanted to continue teaching AP History?
On the other hand, I think if the FS were (for example) a top pediatric neurosurgeon, it would be a public relations disaster for that person to put his/her job aside.
Happy Birthday Hil!
So one of my best friend's has a cat who was just diagnose with a tumor in her jaw, which is where Pico's tumor was. How weird is that?
Your morning dose of TEH CUTE: [link]
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HIL!
Oddly, just yesterday I realized my gay boyfriend looks like a skinnier Daniel Craig with bluer eyes.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HIL!!
DH and I saw QoS last night. He says Craig "just doesn't have that sex appeal Bond is supposed to have." I say he is a heterosexual male and therefore unentitled to an opinion on this matter. Also, YUM.
QoS was fun, but forgettable. Not as good as CR. Too many CGI-assisted chase scenes, not enough nekkid Bond walking out of the ocean.
Hugh Laurie was never a true blond, but it's not naturally as dark as House's either.
