I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Probable Threepeat: I also have a list of Worsts. Including Worst Performance in a Movie with Scarlett Johansson! (Let's just say no one should ever sit through The Perfect Score.)

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

(Not that Teardrop Diamond isn't terrible: it's just a very specific sort of terrible that I find utterly charming and that makes me nostalgic for the intentionally overwrought high school readings of Tennesse Williams plays we'd do at lunch. It made me adore BDH.)

Which I get! But CEvan's Serious Acting is slightly not my beautiful cake, and combined with my low tolerance for TW, it made TD just painful for me.

However, I do like Push very much.

I have SUCH a high tolerance for Tennesse Williams.

It helps that we (Gwyn & I) watched it after watching The Perfect Score and Cellular which are horrible, horrible movies.

Though at least Cellular has Surprise!Richard Burgi.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am feeling the need to maybe just do a CE FILM FEST.

I'm probably needing a WYN rewatch soon. I haven't watched it since December (though I think I watched it three or four times that month).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Aw, when The Losers came out, I didn't know who Chris Evans was. I mean, I had seen him in a couple of things, I think, but I couldn't keep his face straight in my mind. That feels like a long time ago.

He was the afterthought in that cast for me, too. Strange as it seems now.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

I'd been panting after him ever since Not Another Teen Movie, so I was very aware of who he was in that one.

I thought Loss of a Teardrop Diamond was very good, but perhaps being squarely in the middle of the intended audience biases me.

Wow, I have seen almost none of these movies.

Turns out if you get enough sleep the night before, 7AM meetings are not so unbearable.

Sorry, I was unable to replicate the results of this study.

Lol. I had a 730 meeting today. But yesterday I had a headache so I slept most of the day. I woke up at 5am and almost got up. But then I went back to sleep and my alarm woke me up at 7. I was not super awake in the meeting, but I do feel fairly well-rested now...I keep hoping one of these days I'll become an "adult" and wake up early naturally.

Ah, my co-workers. A guy is complaining about girls taking all the guy names. "The only names they haven't grabbed are Fred, George, and Clint!"

Many examples of girls/women using Fred and George are presented. Examples of Clint are looked for.

One particularly extreme example of the dudebro says, "You know, if I meet a chick named Clint, I am going to avoid her."

They're young, and to a degree they know they're ridiculous. I am not the only woman in the room, and they get their leashes yanked regularly. Puppy training is rarely easy.
