so i'll tell you something....

this could be love, because... even after mentally preparing for it for the last year or so... and knowing it was coming... and mourning his death, i'm still unable to play the dirty dancing soundtrack without having a little sobfest about Patrick Swayze :(

which doesn't make any sense because i never saw any of his movies and only saw dirty dancing for the first time last year - and was very unimpressed with the way they snuck around behind Baby's Dad like that, tisk tisk :|) but... he just seemed like such a genuinely good good good good guy with a really good heart, he had the same name as my Dad, the same horrible draining illness which doesn't even deserve typing out, he shared his till-death-us-do-part goodness, his handsomeness, his kindness, his charisma... so i guess he stands for more than just an actor to me...

on saturday we are going on a date. the kind of fancy date you need to reserve in advance: for afternoon tea at 2pm at a fancy tearoom in Pasadena :)

i am so glad U2 are broadcasting their LA show online for those of us too lazy to go to the concert... love Bono/hate concerts, it's a win win :)

speaking of which, i got an email from Barry Manilow today. he is doing a series of christmas concerts in Palm Springs and wanted to know if i wanted to go. for $1000 :| the price does include being served champagne by Barry himself... but i don't like champagne and the last time i was in his presence i caught the mani-flu so i am sadly going to have to pass.

pics from today.... sure, your dog can make it to the fence in 2 seconds, but i bet he can't write LSD really really big with no help whatsoever, can he?????! no, i didn't think so ;)
