Mr. Tyler was apparently a rich source of data for a table of eavesdropping psycholgists.
Hah.
Teppy, I had a root canal several years ago. It was, I admit, a couple of hours of discomfort from keeping my mouth open, and then the pain that had been bothering me for days went away. That part was excellent.
And I'm now rather better about flossing.
It's a Spare the Air Day in the Bay Area, which usually signals hot weather, but it's only a little warmer today than it has been. Just clearer, with a haze layer over the Bay--I can't see the city from my office.
I am cranky and out of sorts for no good reason.
When I was in L.A. a few years ago, Joshua Jackson jogged past me.
When I was in LA last February, I saw the guy who played Tyler on The Middleman--Brendan Hines, who was also poor dead Andy Goode in T:SCC--in a coffee shop. And yes, I immediately texted some friends.
Someone with lots of tattoos and an annoying voice, I was told, but that is not very discriminating on a college campus.
Ha! I would love to meet Steven Tyler. I imagine him to be highly entertaining.
Yikes, that's a lot of rain, Nora.
Much ~ma to Maria and hubby along with Teppy.
I am in freak out mode. Got a text from my sensei that my belt test, which had been scheduled for October has been moved up to September 16th. It starts at 7pm and these tests have been known to run 3-5 hours. Eeeep. I know my material but I'm still a bit freaked that it is now 2 weeks away.
It's freaky quiet in the office today. I've been here ten minutes and I'm lonely. Hellooooo?

It's not quite as quiet here as I expected. Sadly, they are not giving us 4 hours off at the end of the day as they usually do on a long weekend. And I wouldn't be allowed to take it if they were, as I'm now a contractor, boo.
Seriously, my boss just walked in (late) and I shouted, "oh, thank god you're here!"
Outside of book conventions, my only celebrity encounter IRL were the two times I've met John Mahoney in Oak Park (IL), where he lives and where I lived several years ago. I helped him in the Oak Park Library back in 1990 when I worked there (I found him a copy of Uncle Vanya through interlibrary loan), and then in 2006 we were both getting our cars washed at the same place and time. I'd been playing it cool even though he was sitting on the bench right next to mine, but my mom couldn't stand it anymore; just as my car was finished, she doubled back and told him how much she loved his work on Frasier. He was very gracious and thanked her.
Same here but two years with Harrison Ford and Calista.
Funny thing, then Burrell and I go bump into them in LA.
Pretty quiet here too. When I walked in late, the next most senior guy exclaimed "Oh! You're here!" I'm the most senior (though not the most experienced) person in the office of our team. Which ain't saying much.
He isn't wearing socks, and I'm wearing my Batsymbol belt. We're rebelling in our own ways.
And now for another brownie cupcake.
