"Oh Ashley, nothing's turned out quite the way I expected"-Scarlett O' Hara to guess who in GWTW

I thrived and survived the first week o' corp. jobbing in the mini-apple.
It's all the same/old, imagine if I didn't take the summer off to recover from the d-word and get sun damage like I haven't had in years, bay-bay.

I'm pist as ever re: having to work at all; don't have the energy to swing the attitude right back@ the swell new small town folx down @ the office. Just murdal-ize 'em w/ kindness (or is it wisdom borne o pain?)

Here's a dollah, Missy Oh7, call somebody who gives a fig, dahling.

Fridays @ 5:10 pm, if I hit Zelo's for cocktails and can grab the last commuter outta mpls...I'll do jus' fine.

4 now.

"Well,well,well"-Sean Penn as David Kleinfield esq.-sleaze to the DA in Carlito's Way

Underrated
unhappy
unconnected
dark and channeling my Irish side
the Q's talkin to me
the Q's talkin to me
eternal outsider
or
too hip for the room
xhausted by the mondo mundane
feel too much think too much
when I want co. there's nobody home
here on the prairie
is everybody in
is everybody in
was I eating paint when I moved to Mn.?
where is the payoff of a year's careful planning
I just do not see it

there's a light at the end of the tunnel
it's a train and it's headed straight for us-said Dean Martin
that pallie KNEW

'...my boy says he's gonna eat 50 eggs...he's gonna eat 50 eggs'

xtremely wildly good film, and Hoppy's in it, too.(Hop's in everything in the 50s & 60s... rebel giant true grit ,mother o christ and he's still standing...and collecting modart)...where was I? oh yeah

Jo Van Fleet as Luke's mother...devastating

George Kennedy...fuggetaboutit... love dat Irishman

A true low key can't see the strings piece of art, baby

If I ever teach a film class...(even in my own living room) that fucker's top of the list

when I saw it as a kid- and just didn't quite get it- never forgot it

There she goes there she goes again...I just can't contain this feeling that remains-a song; it's only a song Catherine

good lighting is key
don'cha know
my favorite item of the day:
Heather Locklear called up Tommy Lee to come by a private party she had @ Koi/LA this weekend and he helled right up the street
I just knew that" mom and dad still ran off to the motel" after all this time
I sure as heck would
never
EVER
underestimate the power of being the love of a man's life
I say
I say
I say

Where's he gonna find you? You only got 11 jobs!- a line from the Way We Were

C-H did call
... on their dime last week
tendered an offer
I mulled it over the weekend
slept on it.hard.
accepted it today
Hi there and welcome back to the fun and frolic of
corporate hell
can't hardly wait

Han Solo II

Another fab weekend is over in the mini-apple.
Lemme catch my breath
All that "wish I was in a foreign film having discreet matinees"...
charming
not desperate
idleness jacks my imagination way high
and the boundless energy that I don't burn on the elusive career chase- house hunt ;all that rated G shit leaves me bored cross-eyed
you are healing grieving la la la sez the psychic
you're pist sez mama
you're fuct sez the smart money

"The green fairy that lives in the absinthe wants your soul, but you are safe with me."-Gary Oldman to Winona R in Bram Stoker's Dracula

Am I really?

I'm flipping the script. If the Nordic men I've met so far in this town are "intimidated" by a chica like moi there's not a damned thing I can or want to do about it, see?

I'd dig being Sophia Loren-like in a black lace nightie mid-afternoons to some swell younger man, just to catch up on my smooching quotient...but that sounds great on the page, impossible in r e a l i t y, no?

"The force is strong with this one"-Darth Vader re Luke

betch'er ass DV

Dig my baby nephews Lamb pie and his big bro my only godson, Butter lamb . Pie is 1 week old today and I swear he and Butter who is one are already in mondo cahoots. 'Me scalese!' as my Italian gram used to say. These two pulled an attention Olympics on me today wiped me out. B swaggers around and even the newborn has big boy 'tude. I'm surrounded , anything short of them burning down the joint is strictly ok w/ me.

"It's beyond my control"- John Malkovich in Liasons Dangereuses

Why do boys lie

I know he'd never leave me
stand by my side
