cleolindaSISTER GIRL NEEDS TO TURN OFF THE HEATER TOUTE SUITE. IT'S 73°F OUTSIDE, I CANNOT ART IN THIS HEAT. WHY AM I RHYMING? PLEASE SEND HELP, AND POSSIBLY A PORTABLE AC. And chocolate.
Good discussion about The King and I in class today--visiting professor sat in. I can't tell if she's written her book or is writing her book. I hope if she's writing it still that we helped.
I'm still taking my Headcold of Death zinc supplements. Can anyone give me a reason why I should stop? Seriously, I don't know if they're safe for regular use or not.
It's Pimp Request Amnesty Week here on Occupation: Girl:
From![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
modpixie: i'm making a movie based on "tam lin" and set in the 1920s. in order to raise money, i've put an excerpt from it online, and if your readership wishes they can donate a few dollars. (of course, i'd also love for people to review the film at archive.org and link to it.) i hope to go into production this summer, so wish me luck. :)
Fromallova: I'd like to put our 'Darth Vader for Pope' campaign and petition forward for your consideration, in the vague hope that the idea will appeal to your sense of humour and thus be worthy of pimpage.
Misc. links:
No, I am not linking to the $250 vulva puppet.
I shouldn't find this as funny as I do: Kasparov Hit Over Head With Chessboard.
This is just disturbing: Man Catches Fire During Surgery.
Viggo pornstache ahoy!
Less interesting, but seedier: Arrest Warrant for 'American Pie' Actress Lyonne.
Oh, andvladimirsever says that The Interpreter is pretty good after all. Also, he has Lemony Snicket book and movie sequel scoopage. Go, go!
Oh, and one of the Snarkfesters--she's on LJ, but I won't mention her name unless she's says it's okay, because... wow, is she gonna have some jellus folks on her tail, let me tell you what--realized that the Game of Their Lives premiere was in her town. Oh, you know... that evening. So she hoofs it on down there yesterday and... meets Gerard Butler. And gets his autograph. And a kiss. Yeah, you read that right. She was very calm and civil and polite, unlike the nutters who showed up at his Leno taping last week with a cardboard cutout--and (sing it if you know the words) Cardboard Cutouts Are Not Of The Lord, Y'all--and jumped him. I am serious, people--clothing was forcibly compromised, tongues were involved, laws were broken. Soooooo craaaaaazy. Which is sad, because what our girl discovered is that, apparently, all you have to do is ask and he's more than happy to pony up the kisses. Heh.
Another Snarkfest story, this one about Clive Owen, from Admiral Neck. Maybe I shouldn't repost it, but--quite frankly, "the Clive Point" is one of the funniest things I've everwished happened to me heard. I've edited in some updated details she gave us:
PrincessCleo: I concur.
blixie: And honestly I can't bag on your co-worker, I mean nobody *expects* to get propositioned by Clive Owen in the Underground. You need at least a few minutes to digest that that's what's happening.
Admiral Neck: Yeah, when she staggered through the office entrance, clammy with sweat and listing slightly to one side, she said, "I think I just got chatted up by Clive Owen!" to which the entire room said, "Fuck!"

A few years back a [coworker] was buying the last copy of a paper at a stall, just as Mr. Owen strode up. He wanted the same paper, and the friend handed it over, sweat springing up on her brow. He was supposedly most gracious. However, about ten minutes later she got onto a tube just as he walked onto the platform, and he pointed at her and then at himself. She stammered something along the lines of, "But I've got to go to work," and the doors hissed shut on him. She is quoted as saying he looked thoroughly put out, complete with comical pouty face.blixie: I know I should find the whole story kinda skeevy but I just find it hott.
When she arrived in the office and told everyone what had happened there was a chorus of shrieks and many many wagging fingers over the missed opportunity. Not sure if this was before or after his marriage. [It was 1999, so after.] I'm not going to go into the ethics of married men 'scamming chicks', but the [coworker] was reportedly walking on clouds for some time, as well as being the envy of all of her friends. The man does command the lady-love, it seems.
PrincessCleo: I concur.
