I have cleaned and tasked and erranded. Laundry is in progress and the ball game is on. (Go Royals!)
Natter 73: Chuck Norris only wishes he could Natter
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
For those who haven't seen Frankenstein, I'm going to spoiler-font a trigger that you may want to know about before going:
There's a really disturbing and explicit rape scene in the production.
Just an FYI. I'm not the only one who was upset that nobody warned me.
I think I may have mentioned this guy before, but there's a player on the Packers named Ha Ha Clinton-Dix.
Thanks for the warning, shrift.
Oh, I didn't even pay attention to who was in which part! I guess you can't really go wrong.
Here is the obituary for my dad's best friend. I will be coming out for the celebration of life next week.
One of my favorite memories of him was backpacking with my dad, Sandy, and his son (who is about my age) into Yosemite and camping out. We were sitting around the fire cooking dinner when I looked past Sandy and saw a bear. I said "a bear" very calmly and no one reacted, then I was a bit more emphatic and they turned and looked. The bear was maybe 10 ft behind them. The son and I got sent to sit on a rock in the river (cause bears would avoid the river???) while they banged pots and pans to scare the bear away.
Last load of laundry (towels, natch) in the washer.
Do I have breakfast and lunch for tomorrow? No I do not. Oops. Oh well, I have credit cards.
I'll decide tomorrow whether I'll try to make tomorrow's showing or not, I guess. It might be more convenient than Wednesday? Hard to say.
I just saw Frankenstein with JLM as creature version last week. Two years after I saw the other version. Contrary to popular opinion, I enjoyed this version more.
I didn't see both versions, so I'm not qualified to compare them, but the version I saw was JLM as the creature, and he was astonishing. Absolutely loved him.
I saw Dear White People as a breakfast movie this morning ($6.50 before noon). Though the Oprah CHAISPIRACY continues--once again I bought an Oprah Chai, and then after I waited for them to make it for like, 10 minutes, they suddenly were all "oh, we uh...don't....have a pump for that. Sorry." What???
Then I went to a friend's pumpkin-carving party. Now my roommate has something that smells good in the crockpot...and she is apparently in the ER with a foot injury from football.
What did you do to Oprah that she would deny you her chai, meara!?!
