Michigan Sucks

I don't know what paper this is from, but the questions was, "Now that Iraq is a Democracy, who should join Iran and Korea in the Axis of Evil." First place, by a landslide: Michigan.

These Dreams

I dreamt that I was at a family party last night and my "friend" BK left to go to a party with Lindsay Lohan. I was like, "Hey. I want to go to a sweet Hollywood party with Lindsay Lohan." But they were all like, "no, you can't come. You're not cool enough."

Luckily, Gwyneth Paltrow was was there to help me pull myself together before Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen showed up, which was the total highlight of the party. Except that Mary-Kate was fat and my mom kept introducing her as Sheila.

What Debra Winger, Barbara Hershey and Kevin Costner have in common

I get sad when they die.

I engaged in a minor experiment yesterday that has rendered me essentially useless all weekend long. I happened upon Terms of Endearment about 3/4 of the way through and thought to myself, "I wonder if this will make me cry, having missed the first 75% of the movie?" The answer to this question was a resounding Yes.

What is it about this movie? Not only did I sob uncontrollably for the final 25 minutes, but continued to do so long after the movie ended and proceeded to revisit this inconsolable state ever hour or so.

Is this normal? Is there something very, very wrong with me?



Other movies that have made me cry:

Beaches (I wish it weren't so)
A Perfect World (totally underrated movie with Kevin Costner)

Can't think of anything else off the top of my head. Lots of movies have made me tear up, or whimper a little, but these have all made me cry like a little girl with a broken easy bake oven.

New-ish Celebrity Sighting

Isaac Mizrahi chastised me for my inability to close a window. It was awesome.
