I have loved Paul Rudd forever. Cute, funny Jewish guy! Smart! Incredible smile! Nice-but-not-dull! Self-deprecating! IOW, my DH (in a smaller form).

Also Paul+Jon=LOVE!!! [link]

Summer class just finished last night, and I've got three weeks until my fall class, which I'm taking on Saturdays mornings--yay for not having to worry about rush hour traffic!!

Timelies!

Today was the Huntington Garden tour. One of our tour group is disabled and needs to sometimes use a wheelchair. Since it's "sometimes" he doesn't have an electric wheelchair. The volunteer taking us on the tour proceeded to ignore him and started going over grass and off paths. 20 years since the ADA was passed and still a volunteer working for the Huntington Gardens hasn't gotten any training on those issues? As a result, the disabled person & his family & friends were left behind and got a fraction of the tour everyone else in our group got. Grrr.

I was also stunned to see (a) very old-fashioned wasteful sprinkler systems in use and (b) watering going on at noon in the hot SoCal sun. Clearly water consciousness is not big with the Huntington Gardens.

OTOH, they seem to be embracing the edible gardening movement, even using a few permaculture principles (though they didn't use the "P" word). I was a little disappointed that part of the garden will not be open to the general public but only to classes, but it *is* progress for them to even have it.

Did the most walking today that I've done since I moved. I'm glad my knee didn't go out on me again. I should try to nap, though.

Too hot to clean many of the things.

Our AC was overheating and making some funny noises. It's off for a while, till the sun goes downish, and holy shit, it is so hot upstairs (where my office, and therefore I, is/am.) It's got to be 90. I am wearing teeny tiny shorts and tank, and it is still too much.

Tomorrow I'm planning to sleep forever, clean some stuff, read some Arthur Conan Doyle and/or Dorothy Sayers, and not go outside because it will be HOT. Sunday I've got brunch plans, and I hope to finally see Inception.

Wasn't that the one where she's a stripper and gets him to write a nast. letter to his girlfriend he thinks is cheating on him and they have to chase down the truck it's on?

No, it's not out yet. She's a softball player.

Man, for all that hunger? Didn't finish the burger.

That middle one almost made me like Channing Tatum.

It is so cold here. Summer has so far skipped us by. I can only assume it will get very wicked sometime later.

Have we all seen Paul Rudd as a bat mitzvah DJ?

Those dresses and that hair is just so entirely eighties. Awesome.

I have got to go to the library and the grocery store. GOT TO.
