You know, I think your infinite number of monkeys are actually doing a relatively good job. The number of nearly coherent sentences they manage to string together is really quite phenomenal, all things considering. Once or twice I've even noticed a glimmer of what might have been called wit, if it were arrived at another way. True, they need breaks to groom each other and eat bunches of bananas, but there are so many of them that you can hardly notice the difference.
I really, really can't stop watching Lizzie Maguire. My husband watches it too, and we make no excuses why. Sample conversation:
Jes: Miranda is so hot. Me: Gordo is so hot. Both: ....WHAT???
Lizzie is almost unimportant to us. We watch solely for the Gordo/Miranda banter when Lizzie isn't around. There is a scene where Lizzie's brother Matt gets a crush on Miranda and gives her a present that says "I <3 MRNDA" on it. Conversation between Gordo and Miranda:
Miranda: "Guess we can't talk to the new workin' Lizzie." Gordo: "Probably not, but you've got the next best thing, your boyfriend!" Miranda: "He is not my boyfriend!" Gordo: "But, he hearts you, MRNDA."
We watch this clip over and over and it never fails to crack us up.

I've lost track. Wasn't there something about Oreos a while ago? Anyway I told your mom I'd play with you for an hour, and surely I must be off the hook by now. So see you later, am headed for food.

I shouldn't, but I do. There are so many reasons not to. But, jeez ... Hugh Jackman. The laughing eyes, the brash Ozzishness, the broodiness of Wolverine --
1. He's married. 2. He's too young for me. 3. He's on too many current Hotlists.
But 1. He is deeply in love with his older wife (and I dig men who are into older women) 2. He's smart 3. He's got a gorgeous cocky grin 4. He did an awesome romantic, tall, British lead in Kate and Leopold 5. He's a professional 6. He's just too darn hot. Smoking.

*swoons again* Kate and Leopold... aaaah...
Yeah, but he's too old for me... and his wife is Australian and named Debra, which is wonderful, because I had an Australian choir director named Debra whom I loved and admired from the bottom of my heart. So I approve.
But he is definitely gorgeous.

Okay, I confess. I rented Someone Like You and Swordfish, and it wasn't for the plots. And yes, I bought copies of Kate and Leopold and Paperback Hero.

Ralphie, Raia, Annie -- if the latest theories in physics are correct (and dare I say,they just might be), then surely there exists an alternate universe where we four have gotten together in some cozy little farmhouse, forcing this delicious 6'3 chunk o manhood to recite erotic poetry.
Or we will whip him, with tiny little tickly whips.
And the butter. Fresh, creamery butter.

By the way, I always pronounce your name the French way, as in Claudia-Thérèse. Is this right?

Annie, that is correct. It is a pseudonym, but this is how I pronounce it in my own mind. (It's not my fault, he comes with blush attached.
)
mack, in theory I am working on a paper proposal, then hemming my husband's suit pants. If I get on AIM, neither of these has a broken-legged mouse's chance in a roomful of feral cats on speed.

Hugh is ... fine. I like him and all, but if I was going to kidnap somebody it wouldn't be him.
My guilty pleasure is the X-Files, I guess. It used to be cool, but it is so over now. But I missed seeing the lastthree seasons, so I'm renting them on Netflix.
And I've decided that I love RatBoy. Not sure what it is, but on some level I wanna have his little one-armed Russian/Oilien babies. Mroaowr.
