Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I can't sleep. My foot is itching like crazy. I know it is all the mending that is going on, but I wish I could lotion it (was told NO LOTION by the doc) or massage it, which I know would actually hurt more than it would help. So instead I'm whining.
I also watched, and had thoughts. Ellen's first outfit was awful (weird blouse-tie and sparkly blue velvet blazer with black vest? NO). And so were several of her "jokes"--um, the thing about people voting for a film so they didn't seem racist? Less funny when it's (a) true and (b) they're racist.
Somehow, though, both the selfie picture and the pizza thing started out with me rolling my eyes and not finding it amusing, and then eventually thinking it was awesome. I dunno, maybe just the stars she pulled into it (taking Lupita's chapstick!) I'm wondering just how much of it was staged ahead of time (all of it? 90%? 75?). Though I was also thinking "Ellen, you're vegan. Is that pizza vegan? I think not!"
Yes, it was Whoopie. You should see it, Jilli. Definitely a Wicked Witch of the East reference. As for the blouse, the problem was pairing a blouse that looked like it was business attire with a formal strapless gown.

It just didn't fit very well - everything looked weird and lumpy. But the shoes and tights were fantastic.
The scrambled egg waffle thing reheats just fine. Hooray new breakfast option for -t!
I'm having that embarrassing moment when I have to call my dentist and find out if my appointment is today or tomorrow, because I have it as today on my Google calendar, and tomorrow on the calendar in the kitchen.
And yes, they called last week to confirm my appointment, but when I realized the voicemail message was from them, I didn't listen to it past "We are calling to confirm your appointment next..." because I HAD WRITTEN IT DOWN.
Goooooo me.
Okay, it's today. They didn't even mock me for my inability to keep my calendars straight.
Heh. "A woman with two calendars is never sure what day it is."
