Took a break from the world for a few minutes to eat a spicy tuna and cucumber brown rice sushi roll while reading Ms. and wearing my organic cotton "Earth Goddess" T-shirt at an outdoor table at the corporate headquarters of Whole Foods on 6th and Lamar. It occurred to me that I was every inch the central Austin cliché and that was just fine with me.
Last night, I watched "Dave," starring Kevin Kline and Sigourney Weaver. I particularly enjoyed the homage to Weaver's role in "Aliens."
I once read an article in TV Guide, suggesting that Sarah Michelle Gellar own Buffy the way that Sigourney Weaver did Ripley. I still think that's good advice.
Folks of interest to me of late include absynthemuse.com, "a young adult writing community."
