Rise and Shine!

[stoney321]

"Laura! Go tell your brother to rise and shine!"
-I'll rise, but I won't shine.

Hee! Got a bit of mail from tx_cronopio Saturday about moms and their lack of sex, among other things. Hee! Highlights:
*I love my children. But I am not in love with them. I am in love with my husband.
*I often engage in the parental pastime known as God Forbid. (What if, God Forbid, someone were to snatch one of my children? God Forbid.) And I imagine if they were ALL taken, and how there would be life beyond because I have him.
*My husband will say that we, he and I, are the core of what he cherishes, that the children are satellites, beloved but tangenital.
*[If my children hate me for making them moons and not suns] I will tell them to settle for nothing less than what they saw when they looked at me, looking at him.

YESSSS!!! Mr. Stoney, I heart you tunz, underline, underline.

So, so happy today. Arrested Development!! Ione Skye! (God, how many girls my age wanted to be her in Say Anything? WERE her in Say Anything??) "I can't believe we're making love!" And Ann just makes me think of Linda Blair more and more... Puppet hand!

Deadwood! Oh, Alma. Alma, Alma. How are you going to keep this baby? And Al Cocksuckin' Swearengen is baack, baybe! Jane!! I love her as a comic relief, but I want her story, too. The real Calamity Jane had such a sad, sad life. Trixie! "Jew lessons."

Robot Chicken! Scarlette Johanssen was a voice last night. I would run away with her just to sipe her mouth. Wow. That was latent, huh? Seth Green reprised his "white homie" voice from that teeny-bopper movie on Pimp my Sister. Ha ha ha!!

Mmm. Hot cup of Guatamala Antigua (not my favorite, but it was fresh from the roaster), there is a yogurt/raspberry/OJ smoothy and walk in my future, and maybe I'll be able to work out the kinks on this rassle-frassin' Crusilla story and get it out. Otherwise, I may just post a teaser chapter from the Annie Muscial paordy, Connie. Hee!!

See? I knew you'd love it :)

Do I hafta go to work today?

Ione Skye! (God, how many girls my age wanted to be her in Say Anything? WERE her in Say Anything??)

1. Ione is in "Fever Pitch," which I saw Saturday night. Small part but very Ionian.

2. Have you watched "Say Anything" with the commentary by the director, John Cusack (he's dreamy) and Ione? I'm sad to say that it reveals her to be, um, how do I say this nicely? Well, she's no Diane Court. ::snicker:: But I will continue to love the movie anyway.

[tx-cronopio.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'd heard great things about that commentary, but I was pretty disappointed. It's all in the "isn't he great in this scene, isn't she wonderful here" genre. I much prefer when they point out goofs.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I DID love it. :-)

If you promise to walk amongst flowers and sit with your eyes closed in the sunshine, I'll write you a note.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I haven't listened to the commentary... I love that movie so much, it hurts me. I dated Lloyd Dobbler, you see, and treated him terribly in the end. Lloyd, Lloyd all null and void...

So, if I infer correctly, Ione's a bit dense? She was with a Beastie Boy - Mike D - for a long time, but then, so was Molly Ringwold - Ad Rock. My love for John Cusack began with Sixteen Candles *over* and was solidified with his kicking the broken glass out of Diane's path. *le sigh*

Dude - you wanna talk latent? Ione Skye. I don't know who I had a bigger crush on, her or John Cusack. Or Jeremy Piven, for that matter. Not to mention my non-sexual love for Lili Taylor. "Joe lies!" Heh.

Had a nice anniversary - the brisket was just north of tender and the Fat Free layered pudding dessert (OMG how WT is that??? 'Cept the FF part) never gelled, but it was still good. Tell Em I think of her every time I flip past Teen Tite-nits, by the way.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Also, adding to the things I celebrate in April, today is Daisy's birthday. She's 10. *10* My baby is 10, which means that more than half of her life expectancy is over, which is a really depressing thought, but she's *10* I can still remember Eddie bringing her home. She was more ears than anything else. I have cried into that fur more than anyone else has seen me cry, let me tell ya. She got Fancy Feast and a very off key rendition of "Happy Birthday" from Caza and me. Oh, God, I'm one of those people who babies their cats and talks about them!!! I don't care. I love her. I wish I had a Daisy icon.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Dude, I loved Diane Lane, but she has a frowny-mouth. I wanna cuddle up in Scarlette Johanssen's lap and chew on her lips. WOW.

Joe lies!! When he cry-highs. I have written severnty-four songs about Joe. Like Joe and I were ripped apart. Hee!!

Oh, Jason Sokol... You were my Lloyd Dobbler. *cries with the shame of my mistreatment of him*

Teen Tightnits! Go! (I'm glad to hear of your anniversay... Email me the deets.)

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Well, if it helps you, Tapioca (my sweet little Grnadma's cat) lived to be 22, and that was outside in the mountains of Utah in the cold, fighting skunks and badgers.... And Scrappy and Crawfor are both north of 12 and still filled with spunk. Um, ewww. They have no balls, so they have no spunk, but you know what I mean.

DAISY!! I wanted to sneak her home with me, you know.

DID YOU WATCH DEADWOOD, SUE??

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

I did not watch TV at all last night! *shame* I was being romantic! Sorta. Oh, that reminds me (well, not really, but I just thought of it) uberaeryn gave us a plant for an anniversary gift and it's a (cutting?) of one theirs. Kevin mangled his arms all up trying to get it, so I don't want to kill it. I will ask Kathy again what it is and then come bug you for tips on not killing it.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Emailing. Scarlett Johanssen was so pretty in that scarf and earring in "Girl with a Pearl Earring," that I wanted to shove Colin Firth out of the way. Although I wanted to share the guy who played Pieter with her. Gotta go do those apps. Email me you on the down low.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

You know you can see his Full Monty in the opening hospital sequence of 28 Days Later, right?

I fucking want to make Man Pants™ out of him.

How does one email me you?

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Yesh! Please to be finding out so I may assist you on the green.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

I've had "Knowing Me, Knowing You" stuck in my head all morning. I blame that. Dammit!!! Eddie got 28 Days Later from Netflix and I didn't watch it!!! Dumbass is me.

[cityphonelines.livejournal.com]

Dude, I'm my age and I wanted to be Ione. *Goes to happy John Cusack place.* I went to school with this boy that looked so much like John Cusack that it made school worth attending.

And can you believe it's only 10am and I've already been to work and back? Humidifier off season is bliss.

[anelith.livejournal.com]

My mom told me *years* ago, long before I had kids, that my husband should be more important to me than my kids. She was right!

Do you make your own smoothies or is there a shop in the path of your famous 7-mile walks? Now that would be a good incentive for walking!

[crayonbreakygal.livejournal.com]

Children are satellites? I love that. I should frame that. I say that my house is a dictatorship, and that I'm in charge. No democracy here. My hubby thinks it's hysterical. People, don't let your kids run your life.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I love John Cusack hard. HARD!

What is this "humidifier off season" of which I am hearing about?

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I make 'em. I cup of no-fat vanilla yogurt, 1 cup frozen blueberry/raspberry mix/ 1/2 C OJ (today I used limeade. YUM) blend and drink.

Other days I take out a frozen banana and blend it with 2 C of chocolate soy milk (Silk). Delish.

No smoothies on the walk, but waterfalls, ponds, herons, ducks, and flowers a'bloomin'!

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Isn't that fantastic? The article is form March 27, NYTimes, by Ayelet Waldman.

My fave: "I love my children. But I am not in love with them. I am in love with their father."

For god's sake, your kids are going to be gone one day. You'll be with your spouse for longer, so you better cultivate that relationship!

Description of my job: Customer Service/Sales rep for Bionaire/Holmes/Rival/WhiteMountain/Etc. aka The Holmes Group (http://www.theholmesgroup.com/). We sell lots of crap; air purifiers, heaters, fans, crock pots, toaster ovens, food slicers and grinders, ice cream makers, but mostly humidifiers. So people call because they can't clean it, can't take it apart, can't make it work, can't find filters for it and are afraid of it. But being as it is Spring and the need for a humidifier has decreased so has our call volume, hence what we in the call center universe call Vtime (Voluntary Time Off) which is when we get an email from Peoria, IL that basically says 'Email me back if you want to go home'. And I do.

My job? Sucks.

Mmm. Hot cup of Guatamala Antigua

I prefer Guatemala Huehuetenango myself. The few time I drink coffee that is. ;) If they give me permission to send it (FDA regulations), I'll send you some.

*hugs*

[viciouswishes.livejournal.com]

I still want to be her in Say Anything.

[somecandytalkin.livejournal.com]

Hey Girly! Read that Modern Love NYT Sunday - cool...
AD did rock, but I didn't see Deadwood - yet.
I gotta question for you - think I'll email...

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

ooOOooh. Yes, please. My roaster is a small time operation, but they are close so I get them an hour after being pulled out. Yummy, but limited. I've had huehuetenango before and I loveses it, Precious.

how much do I love you?

<------------------THIS MUCH----------------->

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Gah, why did I give Jason a pen!!! *cries as I didn't even have the cool white lily in my hair like Diane Court*

She was pretty funny in her cameo in Wayne's World...

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Deadwood was of the good. I have apparently spoiled you, that is, if you didn't read TV Guide... Crap. Sorry.

I have always relied on the kindness of strangers

[likeadeuce.livejournal.com]

Tennesee quotage! squee!

and THANK YOU for identifying the actress on Arrested development. it was driving me CRAZY.

have I told you I want to write a fic where Gob shows up at Wolfram & Hart, having the wrong idea about an ad they placed for "magicians"?
I am just envisioning him having a chat with Harmony.

[somecandytalkin.livejournal.com]

Alma is pg? Whoa. I don't feel too spoilt, though. That voyeuristic widow - and all that super hawt sheriff love? Not surprised.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Thank you for being the only person to acknowledge that... And how much do I love it that my kids are woken up every morning (almost) to that quote? Hee!! I'm forcing Morgan to wear a leg brace.

You and your crossovers...

"That's my wife. I fucked her good." I love Gob. (And his idea of a "business model."

[mskakaako.livejournal.com]

Dude, not just John Cusack, but she was with Ad-Rock for nine whole years. She's forever immortalized in Ill Communication's "Get It Together". Bwahahahaha...I loved Franklin. Heee....

George, Sr.: Fine. Put the ether on the puppet’s lips, have the puppet kiss her.
G.O.B.: (As Franklin.) I ain’t kissing that old bitch.
George, Sr.: (Strangling Franklin.) That’s my wife, you bastard!
G.O.B.: Dad, that’s my wrist! (As Franklin.) Hey, man, that’s his neck!

Oh Franklin! What about Ann getting all horny over George Sr.'s vows. Heeee!

Also, I need to consult a dictionary, but I'm pretty sure 'tangenital' is dirty.
