i’d like to take this opportunity to thank qantas for the great little in-flight snack bags. full of native treats - mints, cookies, crisps, nuts, fruit - i’m still enjoying them. right now: the anzac biscuit which is a kind of coconut-y oatmeal-y shortbread that i’m sure i’ll be craving more of in about five minutes.

Posted in random thought on February 19th at 11:43am – commentjust watched new kids on the block on regis & kelly and am left wondering: how does donnie wahlberg feel about all of this? he’s a legitimate actor now - he has a real career. he was in ‘band of brothers’ for crying out loud. possibly relevant: he was the only one that seemed into the dancing and the whole performance. completely not relevant: they are all looking surprisingly hot.

so many cups
Posted in random thought on February 28th at 10:14am – 2 Commentsthere’s something hilarious about how in the break room on this floor (and i assume every floor) there’s a wall of shelves and they’re all filled with stacks of paramount-branded paper cups. surely this money could’ve been put to better use.
it was almost 90 degrees today.

scarves
Posted in random thought on November 8th at 4:22pm – 2 Commentsmy favorite season is autumn. i love how the trees turn color. i love the way the air smells - crisp, and where i grew up, with a hint of burning leaves. i love the clothes - jackets and skirts with tights, boots, long wool scarves.
so far, in california, the weather has been pretty even - it was really hot when i got here but other than gradually falling temperatures, there have been no other signs of changing seasons. i’m still shocked that it’s almost thanksgiving.
today though…today i woke up and it was actually chilly. it’s barely gotten up to 60° and i’m actually forced to wear a scarf. indoors.

Posted in random thought on November 2nd at 8:26pm – commentit’s weird to watch shows that are all about LA now that i’m living here. everyone has such a wildly different view of the city, and in one night you can see 5 completely different LAs. i still haven’t completely decided what the city is to me. i have a real clear idea about chicago, namely that it’s frakking awesome…i wonder how long it’ll take before i feel that way about LA.
