Big Love yesterday, and PLEASE. Who the hell didn’t know the instant Harry Dean Stanton handed over the pitcher of drink to Bruce Dern’s head wife during the pilot episode that there was poison in that thar pitcher?
Harry Dean Stanton is one scary-looking motherfucker.

For once, I timed my sending of discs back to
Netflix juuuuust right so that they all arrived at Netflix yesterday and Netflix immediately sent
The Squid and the Whale,
Capote, and
Derailed out to me, so they should be here in the mail later today. In other words, I’m getting three movies the day they come out without having to drag my ass to the movie store, and LIFE IS GOOD.
I hope they’re good movies.
Countdown: Two weeks to
Brokeback Mountain on DVD! And I WILL be hauling my ass to the movie store for that. Because frankly, there’s just not enough gay cowboy sex in this world.

I sat down to watch Grey’s Anatomy yesterday, but when I turned the TV on the channel was set to HBO HD and
Titanic was playing – the part where Rose and Jack are in the water and she sees the boat go by, only Jack is frozen to death – and I had to sit and watch it ’til the end, and I got all teary-eyed ’cause I’m a big baby.
I sure do love that Kate Winslett.
Even back then Bill Paxton had the most smackable face in Hollywood.

Currently
reading:
Rosie Dunn, by Cecelia Ahern. I realized the oddest thing this morning – I was reading the author bio on the back flyleaf, and read that Cecelia Ahern is the daughter of the Prime Minister of Ireland, and remembered that I knew that, since I read
PS: I Love You a few years ago, and I remember reading back then that she was the daughter of Ireland’s Prime Minister, and thinking that it was cool that Ireland had a female prime minister. I have no idea on earth why I assumed that the Prime Minister of Ireland was a woman, since the bio didn’t mention whether it was her mother or father who was the Prime Minister, I just for some reason assumed it was her mother.
The Prime Minister of Ireland is not a woman, in case you were wondering. At least, I hope
that’s not a woman.
Finished late last night:
Dead Sleep by Greg Iles. Good book – I had to stay up late ’cause I couldn’t force myself to put the book down. I played the “Just one more chapter!” game so many times that around midnight I just gave up and finished the book.
Of interest to Harlan Coben readers: He’s got
a new one coming out toward the end of April. And it’s a Myron Bolitar! Whee!

Never met a closed door he didn’t want to be on the other side of.
“What, Momma?”
I love the way every time Suggie and Tommy fight, Suggie lays there with his mouth open in a rictus of horror.
I should sell Suggie-cuddles online for $5 a pop. I’d make a killing!
All of today’s uploaded pictures are
