Things that are good lately

January 25th, 2010

“Sweet Thing” on repeat. Decided to give “Wild Horses” a rest.
ps. his people are very, very good at keeping Van Morrison off of youtube. dang.
(Update: I was ordered to take the song down. Which confuses me because I thought embedding Lala players was legal, but I guess not. Sad.)

Multitasking while I watch Netflix Instant movies.

James Dean in East of Eden. How was it even legal for someone to be that attractive?

Moonstruck. Oh Cher, oh Nick, let’s go back to you in those days, ok?

Making these brownies twice in one week. Which has actually nearly become a monthly ritual.

also:
An episode of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia at least every other night. Charlie, will you marry me?
Amazing Sales sales sales and new things for Spring. (or is that a bad thing?)
new blog love (via design sponge)

    Need Supply's online store has much more(and better) things than they do in store. Doesn't make sense!
    But oooooh that Opening Ceremony sale. That is a bad bad thing for me to obsess over. I know where my next paycheck is going!

    It's Always Sunny is one of the best shows on TV! I think I laugh so hard that I cry at almost every episode. My husband and I can't get enough.

    I saw Van Morrison perform the entirety of Astral Weeks this summer in concert… it was amazing. I may or may not have cried at one point.

    Also – I'd marry Charlie in a heartbeat. My favorite Charlie moments are his song at the end of The Nightman Cometh, and when Mac & Dennis are trying to put together his online dating profile… and he says his interests are things like ghouls. Love.

    oh no. this is my eternal struggle. east of eden is my favorite book of all time. and i love james dean. LOVE HIM. but it's the one movie version of a book that i steer clear of, because i don't want to taint the book. with other movies and books this is no issue, but for some reason… oh james how i love you. you tempt me so.

    Wow! So much Netflix Watch Instant-goodness: Moonstruck + East of Eden are both amazing films. But "Sweet Thing" certainly takes the cake for best song. Repeat.

    Cheers.

    James Dean + brownies + Sunny. What's not to love?

    Incidentally, Charlie is married in real life to the coffee shop girl he stalks in the show. Which makes their on-screen relationship even funnier, I think.
    There must be a Charlie out there for every girl, right?

    Van the man. I love him. And it's true there is nothing about him around the web. The man is like the Yeti of music industry.
