When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

I find Channing Tatum charming and likable. I don't find him super attractive most of the time, but he seems to be a genuinely good dude.

It probably means that no one would try to talk to you on public transportation!

Point in its favor, for sure!

Much ~ma, Connie.

I do really want to see Jupiter Ascending, but more for Oscar Winner Eddie Redmayne than for Channing.

Good luck Connie! My dad had cataract surgery this past week. He's being a bad patient and reading more than he should, but isn't having any issues. Other than hating eye drops in general.

I've been faithfully doing my pre-op eye drops, they're surprisingly unstressful. My instructions say I'll be able to do normal eye-related things, though I should avoid things that are "dirty"--emphasis in the notes. But this is why I took a week's vacation this week, so I could see how I react and can get an idea of how work will be next week.

I'm going tonight! To the theatre that serves Red Robin-type food, and has a full bar. YESSSS, BRING ME LOADED POTATO SKINS AND AN ALCOHOLIC MILKSHAKE, THIS MOVIE REQUIRES THEM.

I could almost see putting myself through that movie again just for Eddie Redmayne's performance.

I have heard some very convincing rumours that Tatum is excellent and charming in the Jump Street movies, but I have yet to see him in a role that didn't put me to sleep. (I didn't get the fuss over Magic Mike.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Taking the week off sounds smart, Connie. Eye-and-recovery~ma I have been amusing myself since last night picturing Jupiter Ascending featuring Academy Award Best Actor ads, maybe I will actually get to the theater at some point...
