Happy New Year!

How cute is this jacket on a scale 1-10?


I think it’s adorable but often when I see things in magazines and such I’m always disappointed when I finally get to the store and see it live.

Just because

Have I seen anything with Grace Kelly? I might have seen some Hitchcock with her but I can’t remember… She’s so exquisite and elegant, stars of today rarely are.

About top 250

Since that list is changing so much I’ll look at it on midnight tomorrow (well actually today since it’s after midnight) and that list will be the one I’ll go after.

...

It seems like it’s changing far more than I thought it would. Now “Young Frankenstein” is on 249 and yesterday “Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl” was on 250. But now it’s “Casino Royal” which was number 248 or something yesterday.


(Clifton Webb)

Anyway, saw “Laura” yesterday and I guess it was an okay movie, if it weren’t for Clifton Webb it would have been dull as hell. Vincent Price I didn’t even recognize in the beginning but his voice and the way he speaks gave him away, it’s like he’s always quoting his favorite poem when he speaks.

92/250

Movie 250

I’ve seen “Young Frankenstein” so many times, as a kid I watched all Mel Brooke movies. My favorite is Frau Blücher and when Victor Frankenstein puts the scalpel in his own leg. Oh and Marty Feldman of course, he is my favorite character in that movies (sorry Frau Blücher). I have to watch that again, I only have it on video… bet the quality of that tape is pretty crappy now. When I was a kid I thought this was Frankenstein, the Frankenstein and didn’t understand why it was considered a horror film.



Year 2009

I don’t even remember my new year’s resolutions for 2008, there was an awful lot I know that much and they were sort of contradicting each other since one of them was “set realistic goals” and the rest were probably pretty crazy. I’ll only list the most important things, and perhaps add some later… maybe you should have a list and cross them off one by one?

One by one
1. Go to the gyno and do a smear test or whatever it’s called (sounds like fun doesn’t it?) Check!
2. Get a haircut
3. Buy a dress or a skirt


Continuously
1. Keep a food diary to see what I need to add and remove from my “diet” Post it on the blog (and please yell at me when I’m not eating health)
2. Write X pages per X (have to figure out what amount of pages per day/week is reasonable)
3. Work on watching ALL 250 top movies on IMDB (some would call that a waste of time but…)
4. Get a pedicure (homemade, I’m pretty darn good) at least once a month.

Projects
1. Finish one longer story
2. Finish a synopsis for a movie
3. Learn how to walk in heels
4. Learn how to do a decent manicure at home
5. Try to sew something, either finish the pants I have or make a simple dress
6. Try embroidery
7. Finish my brothers shirt and start knitting in the hats (that was last year’s new year’s resolution for Pete sake!)

Merry Christmas!

I spent most of my Christmas sleeping, I have no idea why I was so tired but I feel asleep a few times on the sofa. Ate candy, cookies and cake and didn’t feel guilty at all. In the evening I put on my warm pajamas and cute cuddly socks and watched on WALL·E DVD. I won’t make a wish list next year because I got one thing that I had put on it and it was the easiest gift (a gift certificate at a bookstore) so why make the list if no one is using it?

Now I’m off to straighten my hair and then it’s off to the movies, Australia time. It premiers today here in Sweden, worried I will be disappointed.

Maybe it’s the whole Christmas thing…

But I feel like crap, everything sucks and I just want to beat someone or something into pulp with a bat! The building construction is moving along from seven in the morning and for some reason they are leaving this huge spotlight on at the end of the day, directly pointed at my bedroom window. It’s mud everywhere and that horrible sound from drills and machines and whatnot is driving me crazy…

My mom is bugging me and basically makes me want to move far far away and make sure there’s no phone.

All the stores hate me; they have like no rubber boots at all. One pair (the crappy brand that didn’t last a year without holes in them) in an entire shoes store and we are in Sweden where it gets pretty damn wet this time of year but it’s cute little pumps everywhere you go, they will come in handy when I’m taking the dog out…

I am so going to move…

I can’t find anything to eat, everything taste like crap, I don’t like food.

Sunday...

03:24 I can’t sleep! Tossing and turning and I’m not tired! There’s nothing to read and I don’t know what to do! Horrible, horrible, blah! What to do? One two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven...


03:42 My body is obviously tired, just knocked a flower pot over, straight into one of my desk drawers, at least I know what I’ll be doing tomorrow (aka later today).

13:11 Managed to fall asleep around, five… Bored out of my mind, I have nothing to do, dull dull dull… I’m so bored I’m reading my junk mail, “Heloo princess…”

Someone wants me to be a good little girl and help decorating the tree. I don’t want to, call it creative differences if you want.

Love...

Saw this commercial on TV the other day and then I started to wonder, will this be aired worldwide? Doubt this one will be aired in the Deep South…

I think she lied…

In Dita Von Teeses book she said that she’s 168cm tall and weighs 48kg, which makes her BMI 17, which makes her underweight. Sure BMI isn’t a hundred percent but I think she lied about her weight. She looks healthy too me but like someone who works on staying fit.
