-- Had a great weekend, and I already miss all my D*C friends (I won't make a huge list because I know I'd forget someone). Two shout-outs, though:
-- Dragon*Con's newsletter posted this interview with Jamie Bamber, and it's actually one of the best I've seen in quite some time. Doesn't really cover any *new* ground, but the woman knew her stuff and got some excellent answers from him. Also, Jamie is so very, very pretty.
-- MSN is streaming a concert by Crowded House.
--
-- Bret's Footloose/Flashdance solo on the Conchords season *sob* finale. Here it is on YouTube, but HBO.com's version is much better.
Oh, Brit. You so purty... and SO goofy. I kinda love that in a man.
The Bad:
-- Sniffles and sore throat? Great. Last thing I need right now is to get sick. *sigh*
-- Yes, I know we're the odd ones out for starting school in early August, but I'm a bit weary of people expressing shock when I tell them. I suppose the upside is that I can grin when we finish the school year 3-4 weeks before everyone else, huh?
-- Rumor has it that Hugh Laurie was the original choice to host the Emmys, but they went with Ryan Seacrest instead. Bastards!
-- Dragon*Con is just getting too damn big, or perhaps they just really need to reevaluate their crowd control procedures. I know the organizers work their butts off, and I don't have any magical solutions for overcrowding issues. Hopefully someone wiser than me can figure out a better way to manage ~30,000 people (and that's just the official tally) crammed into three hotel lobby/conference areas.
-- I have a mountain of laundry, but all I want to do is curl up on the sofa. Alas.
