What's on the brain...

[I just spied a ridiculously large daddy-long-legs crawling up the wall, and I kind of freaked out. He/She found its way onto the desk, and rather than kill it, I just blew it off the desk, but then I looked down under, and could not find it on the wall nor on the floor. I'm panicking a bit now, worried that it will somehow appear on my leg or my neck and I'll flip out. I know- it's just a freaking daddy-long-legs. But it was a huge one...like the daddy of all daddies! It literally looked to be about the size of a CD (maybe its legs were really sprawled out). I'm currently typing while squatting on the chair so as to avoid a spider-crawling-up-leg incident. I'm such a @#@!$* wuss, sometimes, huh?]

This is really embarassing, but I've just randomly spent way too much time surfing the web for a satisfactory picture of Mike Mussina to post in this blog. All the ones they had of him were mid-pitch, when he's making a strained "I'm trying to throw a ball really fast into a small target" face... I was inspired to do this after seeing him pitch tonight and remembering how great I think he is. (A Stanford graduate and econ major, after all!)

This is totally going to make me lose my girl-sports-cred points, but whatever, he's a sports hottie, and even though he may be a Yankee now I still love him!

Here are the best ones I dug up..sorry for poor quality:

In other late-night thoughts, I just saw "I (heart) Huckabees" tonight, and it was a hilarious and very clever film. Go see it if you enjoy the meaning-of-life type movie delivered in an ironic way with a bit of confusion and crazy characters (and Marky Mark [sorry, Mark Wahlberg] trying to be play a fireman who is against petroleum products and therefore rides a bike to his fire scenes- what could be more funny? Side note: Remember Marky Mark in "FEAR"? Also hilarious, but in a completely different way)

Ok, forget all that. Go see it because Jude is in it. Here's an oldie but a definite goodie to remind you:







just one more:





Oh Jude, how we adore thee.
