there is really nothing of any value that i can think of to write

my brain is beyond fried

my legs hurt because the only times i stood up were to smoke or go to the bathroom

damn i forgot how hot antonio banderas was

only one more post after this

i am sorta proud of myself for making it all the way through

i was so discouraged when i had to end early last year

and dont forget that you can still donate after the blogathon is over

right now i am watching tom & jerry

i just realized i havent seen tom & jerry since i was a kid

why do they only show it in the wee hours?

more kids need to see classic cartoons like this

the sun is rising

well not really cause its cloudy and foggy

and HUMID

but it is light out and my cat has her head stuck through the blinds to see out because i havent raised them for her yet

if rob saw this he would kill her because she has wrecked several blinds before

my lips are all chapped from me biting them

my lip balm is in the bedroom that i dont dare enter lest i wake rob up

i am definitely not going to the clinic

if you could live anywhere in the world where would you live?

i would probably choose amsterdam because it seems like such a beautiful and mellow place.

the dutch have a really rich artistic history and they ride bikes a lot

they also have cafes for smoking weed

a dutch friend of mine grows it right in her garden

that sounds about right.

oh! and thankies to pie for the donation! i really appreciate it :)

only three more hours left, kids

all about eve is ending now

i hope there is something good on after this

i was supposed to go to the urgent care clinic after the blogathon is over but i am so tired i dont think i will be physically able to go.

if im this pooped now, i cant imagine what i'll feel like in over three hours

i supposed it will be even more of an ordeal because i will have to shower first

ugh i just want to go to bed

they only want to see me to check the status of the infection in my arm

but ive been changing the dressing and taking my antibiotics

it hardly hurts anymore, unless i put pressure on it or rub it

i think its fine

ooh "year of the dog" is on!

i thought that movie was pretty good

a little sad but good

im so pissed off

i went to go watch pineapple express and the tv wont go to the auxiliary channel it has to be on in order to use the dvd player.

and rob is asleep and he is the only one who knows how to fix it

we have so many different electronics and crap that you have to use 3 remotes in order to watch a movie

at least back to the future is on

there had better be some good movies on later

and so far this energy shot is doing SHIT

my eyes are starting to hurt

dont worry, im going to keep on keepin on

only five and a half hours left

6 more hours to go!

i just read that these people in CA have a birch tree with an image of michael jackson in the stump.

i only saw a stump.

there is a tree in a park near my house where someone saw the virgin mary in the branch

when we went there there was a ton of candles and shit at the base of the tree.

i looked.

and looked and looked and i really wanted to see it.

i was really trying.

but all i saw was a tree

i felt so left out.

i was a freshman in high school so i was all awkward and such anyway.

this was just one more thing that made me weird.

and it was my birthday too!

i did see the image of mary in that ladys grilled cheese sandwich a few years ago.

maybe i just dont see things in trees.

oh well

ok so that 7 hour energy shot was gross.

it was like fruit flavored poison.

not that i know what poison tastes like.

its what i would imagine cyanide to taste like.

i dont think my upstairs neighbors ever sleep.

or take their stiletto heels off.

they are weird.

we never see them and they always put un-recyclable stuff in the recycling bin.

i think theyre asian

not that theres anything wrong with that.

i just thought asian people took off their shoes more often.

only seven more hours, guys!!

i'm glad that roseanne is on tv to keep me company.

rob went to bed a few minutes ago.

in maybe an hour or two i will start my movie marathon.

pineapple express first? y/n?

anything to make the time go faster.

actually i cant believe its as late as it is.

time went by pretty fast. well, kinda fast.

i have one of those 7 hour energy shots.

should i take it now seeing as i have only 7 hours to go?

when the blogathon is over i cant even go to sleep.

i have to go back to the urgent care clinic so they can check on my infected arm.

*sigh*

ok i'm definitely drinking the energy thing.

i'll let you know how gross it tastes.

Stephanie Lynn Nicks was born May 26th, 1948 in Camelback Mountain, AZ.
She met Lindsey Buckingham in high school and later they formed the duo Buckingham Nicks on Polydor Records
While they were in between gigs (which were few) Stevie worked as a waitress at Clementines.
Lindsey was asked to join Fleetwood Mac in 1975 and wouldnt join unless they took Stevie, too.
It turned out that Stevie changed the entire demeanor of the band and their most popular hits were songs that she wrote and sang.
Stevie Nicks changed my life and pretty much rules my world.
Her ethereal look isnt just a persona or a front, she is really as amazing as she appears.

listen to her singing a demo of "wild heart" while having her makeup done.
it is stripped down and natural and she is completely adorable in it

my third favorite actress is probably one of the greatest actresses that ever lived.
it is the incomparable bette davis.
she was tough, beautiful and strong.
some of my fave movies with her are: "whatever happened to baby jane?", "the letter" and "all about eve"

the best "tell-off" scene ever (from "of human bondage"):

and one of my favorite scenes from baby jane:

damn she was incredible.

Okay on to my next favorite actress.
she is severely under rated.
in fact not many people aside from die hard classic film buffs even know who she is.
Her name is Ruby Keeler.
she was a dancer before she was an actress and she was married to al jolson
she is most famous for starring in busby berkeley's early '30's musicals
my faves are "42nd Street", "Footlight Parade", and "Gold Diggers of 1933"
she was also cute as a button:

she was amazing but only made movies for about 10 years. she made a comeback on broadway in the 70's when she was in HER 70's.

ready to talk about old movies?

ME TOO!

if you are an avid reader of my LJ you know how much I love old movies and old movie stars.
first lets talk about my favourite actresses.
I have many but there are only three that stand out as my FAVOURITES.

first and foremost is Irene Dunne.
she was the epitome of class and when the roll called for it - comedy.
her nickname was "the first lady of hollywood"
she is the star of some of my fave movies: "the awful truth", "my favorite wife" and "i remember mama".

from the awful truth

she was so elegant and one of the most beautiful women i have ever seen.

stay tuned for my other favorite actresses......

if you watch american idol you probably remember alexis cohen, one of the hot messes that tried out.
here is her audition:

she was just found dead in the street in allentown, PA :(
it is being said that she was hit by a car but there hasnt been an autopsy yet.
i feel so bad for her.
she was obviously mentally ill and AI took advantage of that to make for more entertainment value.
RIP alexis
