"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

We watched the end of Breakfast at Tiffany's here too. And now on to another Blake Edwards movie the first Pink Panther.

Which I don't know that as many people have seen. I certainly came to know Clouseau from the seventies come back films, so when I first saw the original movie I was surprised to find that Clouseau was a supporting character.

Also, that it's a super swank, rather Mad Men era movie. Land of a Thousand Updos.

And while Claudia Cardinale is very beautiful, there are very few women who ever lived who can compare to Capucine.

Plus, you know, David Niven and young Robert Wagner.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I love Breakfast at Tiffanys too!

The status is NOT quo.

Megan, travel~ma! I'm sorry the holidays were...snowbound in scary ways.

Dude, way to shake that sack, Drew!!
ETA: And again!

I want you all to know that I read this several times wondering what inappropriate thing my DH was up to before I figured out you weren't talking about him.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Note to self: editing until interrupted by first signs of a low blood sugar headache is probably not the best way to schedule meals.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm in the Detroit airport, with a confirmed flight (but no seat yet, to keep things exciting) to go home. My sister got up at 3:30 am to get me here in a timely manner, so I plan to see if I can rentroduce sainthood into the Methodist church with Sis as the first candidate.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, I was the only person on my shuttle today (aside from the driver!). Usually it's 6-10 people. About half of my department is supposed to be here today, so we'll see who actually shows. A couple of people were supposedly flying back yesterday, which who knows if that happened.

One other person in my group just arrived. My boss attempted to come into work, but then gave up and went back home.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Bleh, have had a rather unpleasant and gnarly night. Tom was about 2 hours ahead of me with symptoms, so when he'd get sick I'd just wait there in dread for my turn.

Have no miso or ginger ale. Have cat food and water and one packet of ramen. And bread for toast, if it hasn't gone moldy.

This is the first time I've ever thrown up in New Orleans, and it wasn't even doing something fun!

Bleh, Nora! Will the grocery store deliver?

I was actually impressed by how clear the sidewalks were, except one spot between some on and off ramps and whatnot. The hotel around the corner from me must have a snow melter or something, because their sidewalks were 100% clear yesterday, without even piles along the edges. Like magic!

The weather is fine here, but all the flights I can see leading up to my short hop flight home seem to be delayed. I don't know what's going in Halifax.
