Yeah, IMDB is stingy with their photos. I'd try Google Images instead...

Raine: the theme was Strengthening Relationships. It was taught by a resident in Marriage Therapy (a dude in our ward). It was weird.

Lizer: Thanks for the tip. Why does IMDB have to have such great restricted photos??

Love your list.

number of questions this blog raises: a lot
Which ND cd did you buy? Why do you like swimming so much? Should I not be wearing sunglasses? I think maybe I'm not pulling them off like I thought I was. Who did you try to call and how blatant was the chest touching? Was it a grope or a brush?

Carly said...

I want to know about the chest touching as well. Oh, and the Neil Diamond CD.

Melissa said...

Jamie Dawn: Thanks and I dare not put my calorie intake on the internet.

Kacy and Carly, some answers:

I got the Essential Neil Diamond 2-disc set.

I love to lounge by the pool and get hot and tan. You should see the trouble I go to to sneak into pools around here, and they are making it harder every year. But it's all about the heat and the color for me.

You SHOULD be wearing sunglasses b/c you are cool. In fact, you could wear them all the time and I wouldn't think it was weird.

I tried to call:
Donald Trump, The Waltons (of WalMart), Charles Schwab, Mr. Wrigley, Oprah Winfrey & Ernest Gallo. I did get someone who answered the phone "Gallo residence" but idk who it was.

My cashier was a nice lady, probably 50, named Lillian who was wearing a shoulder length black wig with 2 hair pins on the side. I liked her. Then the dude behind me came up and said "Hey" and just reached out and touched her chest. Not a brush. Not a grab. He just reached out and touched someone and I reached out and took my money and got the H out of there.

Ashton Kutcher clip--from Just Married (semi-funny)? perhaps Guess Who (not funny at all)? or perhaps him talking about how great he and Demi are together?

I was just going to say re: loving the pool that I inferred Marcy likes the "hot, hot sun" (to quote the hit group OMC, one of my fav. songs to quote for some reason)--I too love to bake by the pool. But I find I can get a pretty good tan by swimming laps too. But then I have a cap on so my hair doesn't get sun-kissed. Problem.

I just bowed to the Paris Hilton trend and bought big old sunglasses at Charlotte Russe. (I feel like I'm way too old to shop there, although I'm not very old...hm...) When I wear my Paris Hilton sunglasses I feel like a star. Also, half of my face is hidden. Not good sunglasses to tan in. Paris probably takes hers off when she goes tanning. Ditto on the swim cap.

Melissa said...

Lizer: "How Bizarre" that they showed a clip from Just Married. Don't you think? And yes, I like to swim in the pool, too, I just wanted to stress that the major draw is the hot, hot sun.

Eliza said...

I stole your numbers thing on my own blog. My deepest apologies...it won't happen again...maybe...

Carrie Ann said...

Kacy already asked all my questions and you mercifully answered them or I might not have slept tonight.

About the sunglasses:

I wear them ALL THE FREAKING TIME. I cannot be without them. I even close to wearing them indoors. If I were rich(er) I would buy really really expensive designer perscription sunglasses. The bigger the better. I even have "cloudy day" sunlgasses. I'm addicted maybe, but I will be seeing long after you suckers have cataracts and gloucoma...
