This has been such a slow day. I can't breathe and my head is foggy and my eyes hurt, so all I could really do was sit in front of the TV... reading was giving me a headache and scrambling my brain. Tea is my friend, tea and Lots of Liquids.

I watched A Fish Called Wanda, various cartoons and TV shows, the end of the movie Tempest (Molly Ringwald's big break! 1982!), Ed, The West Wing (which I find kind of sanctimonious and schmaltzy sometimes), Once and Again, and The Frisco Kid, a movie in which Gene Wilder plays a Rabbi sent from Poland to serve in San Francisco, but has to get to SF first, and does so with the help of gunslinger Harrison Ford. Except for some swearing, it was practically Disney. I have not watched TV as much in one day (let alone one WEEK) in months. It was sooooooo slow.

Also got through to AppleCare about getting the iBook fixed. They're shipping a new adapter to us which should be here this week; hopefully this will solve the problem! All my bookmarks for my Art History paper are on that computer, so I'm itching to get it back!

Time to go drink some mint tea and stuff tissues up my nose. Ciao!

tsk tsk -- I love The West Wing -- it's one of the few hours of television I look forward to every week. Then again, I think it depends on what you think of Aaron Sorkin as a writer. I really dug Sports Night too and both shows had a very similar feel to them.

I lurve The Frisco Kid too but then again, I saw it a zillion years ago when it first came out and Harrison Ford was just that cute guy from "Star Wars" and Gene Wilder was one of my more favourite comedic heart throbs.

Gene Wilder is totally believable in that movie, and I noticed how pretty his eyes are. He doesn't play the Rabbi for schtick.

Harrison Ford looks like my dad in the parts where he has a moustache and small beard (well, at least he looks like he does). The character must be The Dude's Great Great grandfather. ;)

Young Gene Wilder was soooooooo cute. I fell in love with him in "The Producers" ad a very young age and it went from there. I still kind of lust after him in an odd way. :-)
