I am not sure what to make of the nominations. I really did not know who keesha would nominate. I am quite surprised that she nominated jessie. It is pretty funny that it seems she only did it after he went up and bugged her! I don't care for him. So i hope he goes. But i am conflicted. My 2 favs are keesha and angie. But they are on opposite sides. Part of the reason i loved keesha is because she was going to turn on libra/april. She still doesn't like them. But for now she is still aligned with them. I really like angie. aNd was sort of only tolerating jessie and michelle because of her. So now i'm all mixed up. I don't want angie gone. It will be interesting to see what happens!

The lawn guys blew my leaves, and i didn't even have to ask.  I briefly considered asking one of them to top off my bougainvillea (since I can't do that at the moment without falling), but I thought better of it ----not knowing what might happen. :o

I almost forgot: for those of us who will be unable to attend the frolic at Fred and Skip's, the consolation prize will be part one of the season finale for Doctor Who, airing tonight on the SciFi channel.

I'll be watching!! :D

Well, I'm at work and I'm feeling much better than I was yesterday!  Although, my cat woke me up AGAIN at about 4:30 am, :P I was able to get some sleep (but not a lot) before my alarm went off.

In my DVD player:  The Romance Collection, Volume 2 that was waiting for me here at work!  It was supposed to be a 14-disc set for $29.99:  Horatio Hornblower (discs 1&2), The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby, Vanity Fire Fair, The Flame Trees of Thika, The Mayor of Casterbridge, Catherine the Great, Tess of the D'Urbervilles and The Great Gatsby!, but what I received didn't have 14 discs.  NO!  It had 16 discs!! :D It included Edward and Mrs. Simpson.  So, if you want nine, count 'em, NINE A&E "Literary Classics," hie yourself over to Oldies.com and get them...and the shipping was only $3.95.  A VERY good deal!  I figured that, compared to full list price of all the titles (about $320), I saved 91%!! ;D

I was impressed people waited until they exited the plane to be sick.

Got my errands done without getting too hot. The grocery store had too many people, but thankfully they weren't at the self-check lines, and I got through there very quickly.

While I cooked and ate lunch, I watched the rest of the WILL & GRACE Thanksgiving episode. One of the best of season seven for sure.

The next was a Christmas themed episode with Blythe Danner as Will's mom. Grace was invited to tea at her house and broke and figurine, but didn't tell he she did. Naturally, Will gets dragged into trying to cover up for Grace and ends up with egg on his face. Grace did, too, but she deserved to since she did break it and tried to cover up the accident.

Love Blythe, but I didn't love this episode.

Then I put in today's review disc - FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF. I've never been a fan of this movie. I find Ferris selfish and self-centered and close to being a jerk who draws people into his own orbit, and they end up in trouble while he comes out smelling like arose. In John Hughesland, all audlts are dim-witted or pompus fools who need to be taken down a peg, and I just find most of the movie not fun but kind of mean-spirited and sour.

But I know I'm in the minority. I didn't find it any more palatable this afternoon in this new release of it (same old dirty transfer) though I did gain more respect for Alan Ruck as Ferris' best friend and poor Jeffrey Jones who has to endure hell on earth in this movie playing the loony principal out to trap Ferris playing hooky.

Ever since I saw his story on ABC, and watched the video of his "Last Lecture", it/he has literally, in a way, haunted me - in a good way.  Randy Pausch's wisdom and courage(!) - and that of his wife too - have truly helped to put some of my troubles and moments of self-doubt into perspective.  He literally "had it worse" than I did, but he managed to keep going and to stay positive.  A true inspiration.

The only bonus feature on this reissue is a commentary track by director Hughes, and it's part dull scene description and part psychoanalysis of the motivations behind the characters on-screen. I did enjoy it when he talked about his previous work with several of the on-screen actors.
