listersgirl1. Birthday wishes! Happiest of birthdays to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
orionnebula today, and advance happy birthdays to stellanova for Sunday. Enjoy your spectacular days.
2. I got music in the mail yesterday - CDs frommontykins and sensational. Thanks! I'd like to be at home listening to them right now, but sadly, I am at work listening to the Tea Party, who I hate with a fiery passion entirely disproportional to their actual impact on my life.
3. The entire cast of The West Wing is my Secret Pretend Boyfriend (or Girlfriend, as the case may be). Also the writers. Also Aaron Sorkin's brain. I love Season 1 so very much.
4. My bellydance classes started up again last night. The moaning pile of aching muscles you hear over in the corner is me, thankyouverymuch. I'd forgotten (or deliberately blocked out of my mind) that this teacher is all about the isolations, so we worked each muscle very slowly and very carefully, and dude, can I feel it today. We were running late, though, so she didn't pull out the 21-minute shimmy. Gosh, what a shame.
5. The reason we were running late? There was a model search going on the room before us. Here we were, a bunch of round and curvy women, 20-40, sitting on the floor outside the studio as the young and skinny and impossibly unblemished boys and girls walked up, looked as us in confusion, and tried to leave, thinking they couldn't possibly be in the right place. We took pity on them, though, and pointed them through the door. Side note: If you take already tall women, put them in 4-inch heels, and then look at them from a vantage point of sitting on the floor as the pass right by you, they appear freakishly tall. I mean, I felt like a 2-year-old looking up at an adult. Other side note: There should be a cautionary note attached to the "skirts" that are just a waistband and a ruffle, warning people that they are not to be worn if said wearer is 5'11" and going to be walking by people sitting on the floor. I'm just saying.
6. Please god, wipe the thong from existence.
7. The Return of the Five Hour Meeting was cancelled! Hurrah!
8. Happy weekend everyone! I think I'm going to make mine include sushi somewhere, somehow. Mmm, sushi.

SUSHI

Date: 2004-09-10 09:25 am (UTC)On the other hand, if the Sorkinbrain was added into certain other bodies, we'd have a fight.
Re: SUSHI
Date: 2004-09-10 09:52 am (UTC)Also: I'm debating the meaning of "SUSHI" as it relates to the topic of brain transplant experiments on cute boys.
Re: SUSHI
Date: 2004-09-10 10:38 am (UTC)I don't want the original brains taken away, but I wouldn't object to the addition of Sorkinness.
Yeah. I got nothing.
