Apparently, you can watch live webcams of movie premieres at Grauman&#8217;s Chinese Theatre. Le sigh. So I lived vicariously through the lens while famous people showed up for the premiere of P.S. I Love You, starring Hilary Swank and ummm, oh Kathy Bates is in it. And Lisa Kudrow. And some Irish guy who&#8217;s Very Famous. I can&#8217;t remember his name because I was trying to find James Marsters \ud83d\ude42 He had an eensy part in the movie that mostly ended up on the cutting room floor, but hey, it&#8217;s nice to see him working \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>(Actually he&#8217;s a very busy boy with a recurring role on Without a Trace, a new CD out, this Swank flick, hie return as Brainiac on Smallville in January, and my most anticipated: a bigger-than-life role on Torchwood starting in January \ud83d\ude42 Oh yeah, and he&#8217;ll be the villain, Piccolo, in Dragonball Z live action flick coming out next year. The things I sit through for this guy. Sheesh. Though his Lex Luthor in Superman Doomsday was really good.)<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, watching the webcam was cool even if they&#8217;re still doing the &#8216;auto-refresh every 4 seconds&#8217; thing with it like this was 2003. <\/p>\n<p><a onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ukmelia.com\/ridiculousthoughts\/uploaded_images\/psilu1-704663.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ukmelia.com\/ridiculousthoughts\/uploaded_images\/psilu1-704661.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Crappy shot eh? I knew some Marsters fans who live far far away and couldn&#8217;t stay up late on a school night might want to see him at the premiere, so I took a few caps. They&#8217;re crappy but oh well.<\/p>\n<p>So I had planned to finish watching some Smallville tonight but I got sucked into this premiere. Oh well. I&#8217;m hoping Netflix sends my damn Dr. Who dvds soon. Been waiting ages for them.<\/p>\n<p>What else is happening&#8230; not much. Work is work. It&#8217;s&#8230; interesting atm. That&#8217;s all I&#8217;m going to say about it. The kidlet&#8217;s working quite a bit which is nice for her. She enjoys the having of the cash to go do stuff like see the &#8216;Golden Compass&#8217; tonight with some friends. One of them is driving and I&#8217;m nervous about it. We&#8217;ve had snow and ice off and on for the past four or five days and I haven&#8217;t been letting her drive the car to work or anything because she&#8217;s not driven on bad roads yet. So letting some other teenager do it isn&#8217;t much better. I need to take her to an empty parking lot and let her practice on it, I think. <\/p>\n<p>Amazing how used to her driving I&#8217;ve become. Usually when she&#8217;s working in the evenings or weekends I let her just have the car. I&#8217;m never going anywhere because I have no life, so why not? Now that the roads are fooked, I won&#8217;t let her and I&#8217;m back to being the chauffeur \ud83d\ude42 It&#8217;s weird.<\/p>\n<p>Well she just got home so I&#8217;m off to get her unwired so she can get to sleep since it IS a school night for her \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Damn the internet for sucking up my Sunday night.
