I personally am excited about the upcoming buffy comic. March 7th i believe is the date.
And did anyone else know there was a Serenity comic? And another one on the way.

Observations at weeks end.....

Swimming is a great sleep inducing activity for toddlers. Be prepared for your bundle of energy to take a 3 hour post swim nap.


When your child calls out "want mommy to come to bed" it is impossible to not climb up those stairs and into the waiting arms of your adoring tot. When he says "snugglebunnies" as you wrap your arms around him, you just cant help but smile.


Uncooked rice is an excellent item to keep the wolverine occupied with for at least 20 minutes while i cook. It is a mess , because although people say it helps to develop good "pouring" skills and mechanical development, my little mess pot likes to throw it across the kitchen. Luckily, we have his and her brooms.


I believe my refridgerator is alive, but obviously on life support. I have never heard one that makes MORE noise. Im not sure what is going on in there, but it cannot be good.


So from reading the news today ive learned that :
Republican campaigners are hoping that Hillarys Senior Thesis from her Wellesley days will somehow prove she is a socialist/commie. Proving once again that in the presidential elections its all about spin and strategy and not message and the candidates records.

Angelina Jolie is expanding her family. She must have the energy of 1,000 toddlers and a staff of help to match.

Somewhere right now people are sick, dying, starving, or alone. I am fortunate enough to not be in that group. Not right now. In my estimation that makes today a VERY good day for me and mine. Perhaps i can reflect that back out there tomorrow.

Another late night.

I need to get my schedule back to normal over the weekend. I think im working myself into a little insomnia.

I guess when you need a moment you take them whereever you can find them and lately "after hours" is the only time i can get by myself. Its nice to be up when everything else isnt. I can hear the wolverine breathing. I better get to bed myself.

Where do you guys find your time, your peace? Your space.

Santa Barbara......

ever since the mid 80s when she rocked it on an NBC soap as tragic heroine, Kelly Capwell, i have loved Robin Wright Penn. She is what all actors should be.....she serves the characters. Never one to capitilize on her stunning good looks, she tended to take on roles that played against her natural beauty. I always wanted to see her do more and wondered why on earth major motion pictureland didnt just eat her up. But it seems the call of motherhood was stronger. How cool.

No doubt her best roles are in front of her. And when they talk about Americas best, she should be mentioned even though im sure she will never win the big dance. But for me she will always be the creme of the crop.

I love her stand against botox and surgery.

Its like old times

im up late. I NEVER stay up this late on a weeknight. And what am i doing with my quiet, child and hubby are asleep and its just me me me time. Well im just wasting time on line. THIS is what mothering does to you. Its mindless entertainment for me. Perhaps to push away all those serious thoughts i would have otherwise.

So here is what ive been reading the last hour.

And then on to this: The Bob the Builder truck collection that may or may not

end up in the wolverines Easter basket.

Alright....bedtime.

Oscar rundown

James Bond doesnt need an Oscar to validate his skill and overall hotness.

Helen looked great. But i wanted to see her in something a little less Cinderella going to the ball and a little more sleek and sexy. Because if you are over 55 and still smokin' like her you show it. Now the Queen.....meet.....

Our QUEEN!!!!! You look awesome. You know how to work it. The blond hair though.....that is so Mary J. Blige. Jodi you old pro you. Lesbians take note. Ms. Foster knows how to do it. No silly tuxedos. No pantsuits tonight. No sir......and she even brought the ladies out . She is one sexy, hot mother of two. Our hats off to you.

Portia honey. We loved you in Ally McBeal AND in Arrested Development. We love you and Ellen together. How cute. But you are still showing ribs. That worries us. *See Reese and Nicole.

Good to see Mellisa E is out and about. The lesbian crew was representing at the 2007 Oscars. But couldnt Tammy tell her that the "feminine" tuxedo look is SO overdone. Its become a total cliche. Your better then that Mellisa. Congrats on the Oscar. Take that Dreamgirls.

Jada is smoking hot. And Will knows it. Does anyone else feel like he is becoming the "black" Tom Cruise? And not in a im a billion dollar world megastar way, but more of a ....too stepford-y, nice, smiley way. Like he is just waiting to jump up on Oprahs couch declaring something?

Cheat on this Ryan! *note to Reese......please, we know the stress of a breakup is awful, but the weight loss is starting to put you in the category of the woman below in the red dress. You pale, thin women are scaring the children.

Newlywed, but underfed Nicole Kidman. For goodness sakes Keith if you could channel your addiction into her eating habits she might have a shot at making 115 lbs by next years Oscars. the red dress is cool....i commend her for putting it all out there.....but there aint much there Niki.

No one can deny Jessica Biels smoking hot body....that ass.....but oh my goodness...did she send the way back machine to 1987 for that "permed" up do?????? I guess her "sytlist" wanted to do the whole 80s thing, with the fuschia dress and black belt, its, like, oh my gawd!!

That smooth fabric is a killer. You can suck in your tummy, but unfortunately not your nether regions. Didnt her stylist, or SOMEONE notice that in the dressing room????

The only interest in gwinnies dress was the BACK. Which she purposely draped her hair to the side so we could all catch a glimpse of. But the front was so dull, who bothered.

Cate....sleek, interesting fabric. Im sure quite chic. But DULL!!!!

I miss the good old days when all of Hollywood elite came out fabulously badly dressed. There were no "stylists", no "pre-show red carpet moments", no "what are you wearing". It was just a bunch of movie stars dressed up sometimes well, but more times then not....NOT.

Fast forward to 2007.

Yawn.
