Today I realized my phone had been out of batteries since the weekend, and I missed all these fun texts like a friend who was in town telling me her flight was delayed and do I want to go get pizza, and my mom offering to buy me a toaster.
I only saw it for the first time a few years ago, and it's now one of my favorite movies. I cry and cry and CRY AND CRY at the end. It's one of 3 movies I own on DVD. I will watch it as soon as I put my Christmas tree up. You are invited.
You guys BE CAREFUL because Fall River is for real a place where bad things happen. Nothing good has ever happened in Fall River. Tell a loved one you are going first. ALSO if you want to check out a kind of creepy place near Boston, I suggested hiking around Dogtown, MA. Go early enough, though b/c you WILL get lost and then all the sudden the sun will start setting.
Oh man, that's rough. I've been in that position with kids before. It's hard when they just won't ever ever ever ever admit their lie no matter how stupid it is Maybe adults do this, but not to the same degree, I think people get less ballsy with age. And it's not as easy as is sounds to just say "I know this isn't yours. You stole. Give it back." Working with kids is hard. Thank you for doing it.
-She wanted it. -Her sister wanted it and her sister cries when she didn't get things. -She had once "accidentally" taken home a Clifford toy that was ours. So, you know, sometimes things happen. -Maybe someone left it here, and they don't want it anymore. -It's soooooooooooooooooooo cute. -It actually already belongs to her, and she knew that WE had one too, and she brought it in so it can meet ours, but she can't find ours and do I know where it is? -I'm just going to go play with this over her for a while.
Today a little girl tried to steal a stuffed animal from my work, and her stories about why she was taking it home, and that it was probably hers to begin with, and it's totally okay, don't even worry about it, got more and more outlandish, and against my better judgement/experience/professionalism I argued with her for a REALLY long time about it. She was 4, tops. I'd say I need a vacation but I already had one so I think I'll have a drink.
Oh my god, I love this idea and I'm so excited! My biggest wish is that the posts would be at a time of day that I could participate in real time, so, you know, before 7am or after 7pm. NO BIG DEAL I'M SURE! But for real, what a great idea. I've always wanted to see Alice Sweet Alice (always=ever since I saw a list of scary movies with masks on flavorwire, about a month ago). But I don't know if it's easily available.
-port wine cheese spread -i guess that's it
That video made me super motion sick, but I watched until the very end.
You know, I have never actually read Great Expectations, which is maybe not so surprising because the canon is large, and I'm only one person (right??), but what IS surprising is I somehow managed to make it to my mid-30's, working in a book-centered career, without really knowing what it's about. It just seems kind of impossible that that could happen.

I found myself thinking maybe the Grace Kelly movie would seem more exciting to me if someone else were playing her (I really like Nicole Kidman, just not as Grace Kelly), and then I thought for a while what I would want this movie to look like, and then I got REALLY sad that it couldn't just be grace Kelly, back then, playing herself and making more movies, and I got unexpectedly sad that she died. She was really just so great. At least in movies, I don't know what kind of person she was in real life. #tooemotionaltowatchmovietrailerstoday

Chiming in YEARS LATER to say Kenosha!
Hank is my very favorite character on Parenthood ever. Yeah, the teacher is way nicer and more normal, but snoooooooooooooooooooooooze.
When kids in my library fight about stuff like this, I tell them to go outside and fight about it. They can only come back in when an understanding has been met, or one of them wants me to call the police. So, unless it's police-calling time, I'm not hearing anymore about this Super Bowl Ring.
I appreciate the suggestion that this could collapse her empire, but the fact that it absolutely won't collapse her empire is super duper depressing. I am feeling despair.
Fun fact: That video game was invented by Tom Hanks as a kid in 1988.
Not to say you couldn't be the friend, flanny. You could totally be the friend.
This made me laugh out loud and knock over my coffee.
I DID happen, though! At least it happened to me. But then I did that whole freshman-year-in-college-Indigo-Girls thing and listened to their cover of it too many times, and now it's not happening to me anymore at all.
I know it's HOURS later, I will tell you what I think: KELLY IT LOOKS SO GOOD!
I want to thank you guys for NEVER pointing out that every single comment I post has at least one MAJOR grammar error in it (usually involving leaving out entire words, or just typing the wrong word altogether). It happens because I'm usually not supposed to be commenting when I comment, so I am all nervous I'll get caught and my comment will be printed in the newspaper, which is what they always tell us will happen at my work, because our computers are city property and so is everything we do on them. Or something. Anyway, very long comment, but have a great weekend. http://25.media.tumblr.com/a8c4d483ee571628a3836773b659230a/tumblr_mgbspn98Cm1r1mtsdo1_500.gif
I got 3 seconds into this video and an error occurred, please try again later. But I have to know!!! WHAT DOES A PENIS LOOK LIKE?!?!?
Do you guys think those masks are more or less scary than the masks in the movie "The Strangers"? How about that movie with cat masks or horse masks or something that isn't out yet? I always watch the mask movies because I think I want to be scared, but the problem is I actually get scared. For like, a year after.
I work at a job where I'm forced to ask people to turn down their headphones several times a day (public library, y'all, living the dream), and so I have become all-to-comfortable doing this on the T. I forget the my face of professionalism and civil acceptance mean NOTHING to the people on the T (it barely means anything to the people in the library). I have caused a little trouble for myself, but have also become a folk hero to other T riders.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaat in the insanity?!? Congratulations, topknot!
I'd invite all the celebrities I know to be great dancers. Like http://stream1.gifsoup.com/view1/1743441/sam-rockwell-can-dance-o.gif or, you know, http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mctxg8ZZLj1rids5uo1_500.gif
I watched Pretty Wild, then I wanted to tell everyone I knew about it, and it's a REALLY difficult television show to explain to an unaware/uninterested party. You really come off sounding vapid yourself. I have just never seen a reality show when the main characters were THAT HIGH for THAT MUCH of the taping.
For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen. DOXOLOGY 4EVA!
God from God, Light from Light, Jason Statham from Jason Stathm. Begotten, not made.
Elizabeth Olsen for real, though, because they kind of look alike. Am I crazy? I think they look alike.
I had avoided most coverage of AD as well, then was reading an interview with a bunch of the cast members as I was watching, and they all seemed to think that after episode one, you could watch season 4 in any order. I don't know about that (seems like no?), but I DO wish I would have watched the G.O.B episode sooner. It was the episode that finally hooked me. (I also didn't realize he was my favorite character until they broke them all apart like that. I would have guessed Buster/Lucille).
One more, for the long weekend. http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ma58c6z2XF1r84iplo4_r1_250.gif
I've been sick for the last 2 days, and I finally watched Top of the Lake, but NO ONE ELSE I KNOW has, so I can't talk about it with anyone, and that's what I want to do. BUT I'm dancing anyway! Long weekend! Enjoy! http://24.media.tumblr.com/5a6d83bbb04c6535894112277f96a42d/tumblr_miojjbqCWG1s3r5b0o1_400.gif
Pretty Wild. I don't watch a lot of reality TV, is it normal for people to be THAT HIGH when being filmed in their own homes? I couldn't stop. She had me at "homeschool curriculum based on 'The Secret'"
This video should only be watched without the sound. You're stressing me out lady YOU'RE RIGHT I'M NOT DONE AND I SHOULD BE!
