JZ, I already have in my stack of patterns to be done eventually Mucha's La Tosca, Gismonda, and La Trappistine, which I've completely forgotten about until you mentioned it. All Sarah Bernhardt Mucha designs!
msbelle is soooo right--I have too many things to do already! Although I will buy that Santa Claus for my mom's Xmas gift for 2010.
Man, I need to go boot shopping. And coat shopping for that matter - we're seeing mid-November weather a month early in Chicago this year. Bastards.
I got my boots online on Monday, but my high-arch feet won't quite fit into them, so I have to exchange them for the double-W size. Here's hoping these will fit! I did get a great wine-colored cordoroy coat for the fall which will be great until the temp gets below freezing during the day.
That, and choking a bitch.
Frankenbuddha, that is one of my all-time fave skits EVAH. That and "Dick in a Box" consistently make me laugh and laugh every time I see them.
ION, I have walked the dog (who knew Corgis shed SO FUCKING MUCH?! Can I shave him?) and taken a shower and am making broccoli-cheese soup.
I've done other job-hunty things, but let's not talk about it; it makes the Baby Jesus cry.

LOVE THIS WORD!
Brenda, it's horribly cold here too. I thought I was dressed well enough but I hopped on a bus halfway home because my face and hands were so cold.
Schadenfreudtastically
This is a seriously awesome word.
The Mystery of Marie Roget, Murdered by Edgar Allan Poe
Was Edgar Allan Poe not only a brilliant author, but also a demonic killer who wrote The Mystery of Marie Roget, to boast about the crime he committed?
Haven't read this yet.
Jon Gosselin loves the Jews. Sorta. His girlfriend is Jewish. He says he now hangs out mostly with Jewish people and considers himself half Jewish. [link] And this:
I have a therapist. But hanging around Jewish people you don't need to talk to anyone else. My parents and grandparents are divorced and I want to break the pattern. I have Hailey and Mark Heller, my attorney, my therapist. They're all Jewish. I watch them and I confide in them, especially Hailey. She is my best friend. She'll tell me if I do something wrong. God has put these people in my life for a reason. My inner circle is Jewish. I only care what they think.
Lovely.
Well, I can think of a couple of good Yiddish words with which to describe him at least.
