1. It's been a hard week.
2. I am picky about people I allow to share my name. (Yes, it is up to me to grant ultimate approval.) For instance, I am down with Natalie Merchant, Natalie Cole, Natalie Wood, and other women who share my name of equal or greater repute. I am not down with that Imbruglia chick or the other one who just goes by my first name. I have wavered on and off about the OTHER big Natalie at this point in time, having been compared to her, told I am cooler then her, had people wondering if I really was her (long involved story of no real interest), but after Saturday night and this, I definitely think Natalie Portman is worthy. "I'll kill your fncking dog for fun, so don't push me!" Granted, I just like to pretend the SNL guys are saying they love ME when they sing "We love you Natalie." I also think it's really hilarious when girls say "suck my dick"...(yes, I have been angry lately)... I was watching this with my father, he did not find it as funny as I did.
3. My dad went to Presbytery this weekend. Mom and I watched a bunch of episodes of Sex and the City in an attempt to aquant her with these people I am always talking about (no, Andrea, they are real). We had the perfect evening Saturday, cruising the world food isle at the grocery store, getting lavender smelling wonderfulness bath stuff and candles, Japanese take out and more Sex and the City! I started her on season five (with lots of pausing and telling her the history) and now we are in season six.
4. I finally finished watching the ice skating my dad taped for me. I think over all this year disappointed me because of the adjustments to the new scoring system. There was a lack of sparkle. Emily Hughes really impressed me. Sasha Cohen was fine, but didn't really impact me emotionally. I was really rooting for Irina Slutskaya, I guess I just have a soft spot for the Russians. I also was really impressed by that 16 year old from the country of Georgia, Elene Gedevanishvili. I was happy for the Japanese, but again, the whole thing was lacking a certain luster.
5. Oscars! I liked the way things turned out. I had certain people I wanted to win things in, but since I only saw a few of the movies up for awards this year, I don't really have sour grapes. I just need to see the other films. I've had this sort of "only movies that make you laugh" rule, since I have a tendency to ONLY watch dramas if left to my own devices. Laughing improves the immune system. I need all the help I can get.
6. Madonna new album is my official shower music these days.
7. I leave for Boston on Thursday.
8. My sleep is off again. Freaking antibiotics.
Yes... it is me. I laughed when I read your post. I hope you're having a better day. It sounds like we just missed each. I went down to Chatty I think one week ahead of you. Sad times on the whole spur of the moment planning thing. Oh well.
