celebrity babies
a game you can play with your friends.
Running news:
Saturday: nothing.
Today: 3 miles, or something. I stopped midway, because I felt like poo-poo. Tomorrow will be better.

Okay, you're all pretty much in agreement: Samuel L. Jackson sucked in The Phantom Menace. But you were happy to see him, right? Until he started acting in the same damn flat style as everyone else?

On Tuesday, when I got together with Tiffany, we had a long drive from West LA (where I picked her up) to Los Feliz (where her new house is): you take the 405 North to the 101 East to the 134 East to the 5 South. And that's the fast route.

Anyhow, we had many minutes of driving, so we got on some weird topics, one of which was (Tiffany started it): "If you could have a baby by any celebrity, which celebrity would it be?"

My first reaction was, "Well, it couldn't be an actor, because actors have a reputation for being stupid for a very good reason: they usually are." Then I immediately said, "Oh wait, there's David Duchovny." Not only is he intelligent and has a very dry sense of humor, but, as I put it, "He's got the Jewish thing going for him."

She cracked up at that.

So far this weekend has been a big bust. I don't even remember what we did yesterday, other than have breakfast with Fernando (and I've got an 85% chance of that being the case any given Saturday). I think I hung out online and Darin went over to the Guys.

Today I went out and got us bagels and coffee while Darin got in on some early morning (well, 10am or so) StarCraft games with Mitch, Scott, Rob, and Rob's brother Michael. (A brothers game, if you will.) I then spent the rest of the day reading.

Tomorrow I have plenty to do, despite it being Memorial Day.
