Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Our wings are not tired.

I think Dollhouse was off for the Haiti relief program.

a lady in my coop is looking for a 2BR, so I emailed her and she is coming to look at my place tomorrow. I told her we wouldn't be moving until July. Only problem is that my room specifically is a disaster and I can't seem to get started on it.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

I think an Oakland fan would feel inclined to say to him, "God is eternal. He can wait."

I think an Oakland fan would feel inclined to say to him, "God is eternal. He can wait."

That's pretty much my take.

I managed to put clothes away and file a pile of papers. Now a break for lunch out at the diner. I really need house elves.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Jean Simmons died. Age 80.

She was so beautiful, and a favorite of mine. I liked her paired with Deborah Kerr (another fav) early in her career. Jean was married to Stewart Granger for a while.

From the NYT obit:

Those who knew her said she was generous, modest and unassuming. According to Mr. Granger, Ms. Simmons called Audrey Hepburn after she saw her in “Roman Holiday” — in a role Ms. Simmons might have had — to say, “I wanted to hate you, but I have to tell you I wouldn’t have been half as good.”

eta: Oops, I had forgotten that she does the older voice of Sophie in Howl's Moving Castle.

She rocked a pixie cut for a little while in the mid-fifties too.
