A blog, in bullets

  • I'm psyched about The Devil Wears Prada, but honestly, I've seen that trailer where they play an entire scene so many times it feels I've already seen the whole movie.
  • Also, has anybody else ever seen a preview where they play an entire scene before? I liked it. The first time. Now…uh…well, see above bullet.

  • If you haven't seen the trailer, and you want to, go here.

  • I think I have the oven situation under control. Maybe. At least the house hasn’t exploded yet (always a bonus.)
  • Learning to Play Gin reached my editor’s desk this morning (and I’ve got the FedEx email to prove it.) Which means it’s out of my hands. Over. In the books (literally).
  • Having a book so close to finish is a little bit liberating and a whole lot terrifying. It’s all I can do to not get on a plane, race to the Berkley headquarters, and hide under my editor’s desk with the manuscript and a red pen.
  • I fully intended to see Superman this weekend (as long as they don’t play the “whole scene” Devil Wears Prada trailer) because I love Clark Kent (a top 10 man who, sadly, is fictional.)
  • I also love Kevin Spacey (who isn’t fictional). We’re talking love. The real stuff. Capital L. If I had a locker it would probably have Kevin Spacey pictures taped in it—that’s all I’m saying.
  • Evidently Britney Spears is posing nude on the cover of Bazaar which proves that her wardrobe has gotten so tacky she’s now opting for no wardrobe at all.
  • I’m thiiiiiis close to breaking the 1,000 “friends” mark on MySpace.
  • I so need to get a life.

Have a great day, everyone!

Does anyone else find it ironic that Ms. Spears is going to be on the cover of somthing called Bazzar?

That trailer thing happened to me with the movie Double Jeopardy with Ashley Judd (1999). I was so psyched up to see it and came out going, "So, I saw all that in the trailer."

In fact, I now couldn't even remember the name of the film and had to go look on IMDB.com and I'm still not 100% positive it was the one. Probably 99% after reading the synopsis. That's how much it stuck with me. I heard other people saying they loved it and I figured they had no way on earth seen the trailer--either that or they actually LIKE their meals cooked, cooled, and immediately reheated.

I hope The Devil Wears Prada is much more memorable!
