Holy hell, it took me three hours to catch up with my flist. I'd been gone a while and it felt like forever, but the usual amount of catching up is two hours. Um.
Whatever, spring break is coming up. I'm excited. Mostly because the week after it ends is the week Iron Man comes out. I'm sad that I haven't seen ads for it anywhere, whereas Speed Racer and Made of Honor are everywhere, but MSG does have an Iron Man ad along the hockey rink and 7-11 has 3D cups. I got the cups on Monday, and every time I watch a Rangers game (like now) I'm begging someone to do a body check into the wall where the ad is. I'm sick, we all know this.
Speaking of sickness, my obsession with older men continues. And evidently my long train of actor/musician obsessions as well. Because now I'm crazy about Dermot Mulroney (and his band-- "Life Is A Pain" FTW). I like actor/musicians fine, but I'm tired of everyone putting out albums because someone told them, "Oh hey, your voice is good." And they're all in genre groups, too. Like Bruce Willis and Russell Crowe have rock bands and all the pretty young'uns are pop tartlets. And now there's the singer/songwriter tag for people like Jason Schwartzman and Zooey Deschanel and Scarlett Johansson (although bringing Tom Waits to the masses is probably something I can get behind). And don't get me started on singers who want to act. Can't anyone ever just stick to one career anymore?
Which reminds me-- my dad taped an episode of "After Film School" with Jason Reitman on it. And I had no idea that Robert Rodrigeuz wrote a book. I looked at my dad when he came home and went, "Clearly, a trip to BNN is in order this weekend!" I don't even know why I try. I could read fifty books on directing and writing and making movies, but without friends to cast in them, what can I possibly do? Still, Jason Reitman is pretty awesome, even if I am among the few who enjoyed Thank You For Smoking more than Juno. I love when directors give actual advice and aren't all gloom.
( Maybe I should listen to this meme and do writing instead. )
Speaking of actor/singers, a spoiler for any HIMYM fans on my flist.

P.S. I'm highly amused that the name of the judge in the Jo Rowling vs. the HP Lexicon case was Robert Patterson.
