where did my three-day weekend go?
Sep. 6th, 2010 09:45 pmMy long weekend has zoomed by. This evening I re-outlined the Jo book and watched a rather odd, Jo-book-related movie: Katherine (1975) starring Sissy Spacek as a doomed Weather Underground revolutionary, Art Carney as her father, and Henry Winkler as her Bill Ayers-esque boyfriend.
Last night I watched The Most Dangerous Man in America: Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers (also Jo-book-related), and it was excellent. And, of course, last night I watched Mad Men, and it was astoundingly good--possibly my favorite episode of the show to date.
Oh long weekend, don't go!

Sep. 17th, 2008 03:08 pmYesterday my order from Banana Republic showed up in the mail: a short-sleeved print top and a fantastic gray sweater-coat with adorable pockets and buttons. Now if the weather can just cool off enough so I can wear the sweater-coat!
Here's a terrific blog entry by Sara Bibel about Mad Men's recent delving into soap opera history and how the show "chose to use soaps as a vehicle of female empowerment": Mad Men Makes Me A Happy Woman.
Ryan's Hope line o'the week:
Pat: We could get a big floppy dog, or a cat. Or both.
Delia: No, I don't want a cat. Cats are too sneaky.
