I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Done with work. On way to get mac. I think I will clean out files once I get home. End the year with some shredding and organization.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I cannot forgive Tom Hanks for his acting choices. Just can't.

Aretha is interesting territory. She does dress like crap, but I love the hat everyone made a fuss over, and I'm totally not a hat person.

Susan Sarandon is very cool, but I am sad about her breakup, and she should wear bras and shoes more often.

I think Judi Dench could start dressing like Lady Ga Ga and I wouldn't be distressed at all. I love her that much. She rocks even harder than Helen Mirren.

Clooney keeps doing things that make his playboy status seem just charming. Though I did just read he's not doing any more press conferences because he's tired of the prankishness. He may be too big for himself now.

Giving up the Hollywood and staying true to his roots.

The Hollywood model/actress still had a heart.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I ended up with a not-bad-at-all Cobb salad from Safeway, since I've been eating terribly for a while. I also bought cornbread, which tastes almost like cake.

Because books.

It always fascinates me when couples break up after that long together. It seems like, especially if you've got plenty of money and other resources (i.e. not staying together because you can't afford two homes, or there are small children involved), after maybe five solid years together, you'd know, "This is him/her, what s/he's like, habits, etc., and I like us together." What changes twenty-some years in?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I ended up getting a burger and fries at McDonnalds. Suddenly I don't want to eat it. Oh well.

Do Americans use the term "fresh" to mean forward and somewhat presumptuous?

Today's lunch will be the rest of yesterday's chicken bowl from Chipotle, with sister's cheesecake for dessert.

McCartney - docked for not being Lennon (cf., "Silly Love Songs") and bad divorce.

The divorce from Heather Mills? I think he's docked for marrying her, or perhaps for not having divorced her sooner.

What changes twenty-some years in?

Someone else, maybe? Wanting there to be the possibility of someone else?

As in "Don't get fresh with me"? Except that's more "flirting", right?

eta: I think this usage has really declined in recent decades.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My grandmother certainly does.

My husband is getting sent home at noon, due to bad weather. So far, I am not. Grump.

Yeah, someone else is always a possibility, I guess. I think the romantic in me doesn't want to consider that sometimes you just get bored, and fall out of love.

My mother always used "fresh" with us kids, mostly, meaning "sassy."
