Sitting on my window seat with a candle-lit lantern hanging above me, a cat and a laptop on my lap and a view of gumdrop-licious multi-colour-light-swathed trees dotting neighbourhood lawns. All in all, it's quite a cozy scene!
Rang in the new year with friends, champage, chocolate and Scene It -- Music Edition. The gathering also doubled as a birthday celebration for
happyinpink. I also have to give a shout-out to
cricker81, who's provided many a laugh in recent nights. Two of my favourite exchanges:
Me: I always get Julie Andrews and Judy Garland mixed up.
Cricker: But they're not even the same person!
Me: Happy Ought Six, everyone!
Cricker: It's the year of the ox?!
Oh cricker, a laugh a minute are you!
Saw
Brokeback Mountain this afternoon -- thought it was beautiful, devastating, tender and generally fantastic with particularly amazing performances by Heath, Jake and Anne (Hathaway, in a radical departure from her
Princess Diaries beginnings). I was especially impressed by the male leads' ability to play their characters convincingly from 20ish to nearly 40 years of age. Not to mention the drool-inducing hotness of the cowboy-on-cowboy action -- be still my heart!
