...and she's feeling really opinionated. Commence barrage of blog entries describing every experience I've had or thought I've thunk since my last substantive human contact (saying goodbye to my mom in the airport parking lot many long, sleepless hours ago):
Unsolicited Opinion Numero Uno:
-Will somebody please make a movie that does NOT star Jude Law playing a pompous, womanizing jerk? Consider it a personal favor to me. If you must include some male eye candy, Ewan MacGregor has a mighty fine... um, accent?
My two cents, part deux:
-NPR rocks. What this nation needs is a good month-long bubbalicious soak in NPR. Let it seep in under your fingernails and soften up your belly button lint and scrub behind your ears and flow in the crevices! It'll cure what ails you. Enjoy it with your A.M. java (i.e. Morning Edition). For you natural-science geeks out there, we have Talk of the Nation's Science Friday with Ira Flatow, and for geeks wishing to broaden their horizons, there's Odyssey, too. Generalists will enjoy the relaxing aromas of All Things Considered. And if you cringed at the thought of soaking in anything "bubbalicious" (or have an accent fetish), steep for a while in the Brothers Magliozzi and their Car Talk. And who can pass up the chance to listen to the man who made Minnesota Lutheranism a household word?
I know, I know, you're dying for more of my Random Spiels and Soapboxes. Well, you're just gonna hafta be patient, now, aren'tcha?

Star Wars doesn't star Jude Law as a pompous, womanizing jerk. Also Gone With the Wind, The Muppets Take Manhattan, all three Die Hard films (and probably the upcoming fourth one), Kissing Jessica Stein, Spaceballs, and The Last Starfighter. Hope that helps!
Three cheers for NPR! If your family's tried 'em, oh you know you've satisfied 'em - they're the real hot item, Powdermilk!
Amy, I'm sure that NPR has done a segment on belly button lint before--or at least belly buttons. :-) Kali has such a good view of things, so simple. "OK Mommy, that'll be good." She's right. It will!
Charlie, thanks for mentioning all of thsose reassuring, Law-less films. Come to think of it, I own about 15 movies, and NONE of them stars Jude Law as a pompous womanizing jerk. They do, however, feature Mel Gibson, Ewan MacGregor and, to some extent, Billy Crystal in said role. Man, I need to get some more uplifting movies.
