Oct. 29th, 2001 02:25 pmWhee! This is nice, but if I'm going to journalize, it seems sad to give up the opportunity to get one of those spiffy blank books they sell everywhere. Perhaps a nice red one like Bridget Jones' diary.
All my email is caught up. It's much easier to stay on top of email when one is being paid to sit behind a computer screen with the email program smacking you in the forehead.
Just getting over a cold. Being ill sucks. The unique sensations give me these weird memory zaps of being a kid again, presumably as that's when I got the most colds.
Watched Bridget Jones' Diary last night. It's got a fair number of funny moments, but it's a total woman fantasy. Bridget has a wild fling with Hugh Grant (ugh!) before settling down with a wealthy, principled and successful barrister who doesn't look too bad either. I picked up a new curse from it: 'Piss and Ballocks!' I quite like it. I've used it once this morning already.
The nice lady who bought our house actually mailed me some seeds from that plant that I was fixated on for awhile. While I've since gotten over my fixation, I did like that plant and I was just starting to think she stuck my SASE somewhere and forgot about it. I couldn't blame her, it was a bit of a weird request. Always nice when someone goes out of their way for a stranger.

Date: 2001-10-29 05:18 pm (UTC)I never watched Babylon 5 which generated deep suspicion among my friends and acquaintances. Nevertheless, I can appreciate your sentiments. The barrister guy beats the crap out of Hugh Grant towards the end of the movie. In itself justification, perhaps, for watching it. Hugh Grant actually does pretty well as the dissolute, uber-charming slimy weasel, much better than as a leading man. Yes, stay far, far away from Nottinghill, wish I had.
That's Grimilkin exploring his new digs.
