spes = cool, david tennant = ♥

[schmerica]

Yesterday I ventured out into Portland to see my beloved speshope. It was literally the first time we had seen each other in months. MONTHS! Besides our normal dorky escapades, we had a mini-David Tennant marathon, consisting of all of Casanova and the first episode of Blackpool. Spes failed to give me an adequate explanation for either the question of "How is he SO CUTE?" or "Why can't I have one of my own?" despite the fact I asked her each of them a good thousand times during the afternoon.

Really, the only downside of the afternoon is that my cute new sandals decided to betray me. I'd been walking on them fine for the last week, but somewhere in the four or five blocks between Spes's house and the McMenamin's and Safeway, they decided it was time for blisters and cuts. Sigh. The pain just makes the good stuff sweeter? I guess?

Peter O'Toole was also in Casanova, and okay, the thing about Peter O'Toole is that even though he is really old now, he is one of those guys where you can see exactly how hot he *used* to be. His eyes, you guys. Man. (During the scenes where he is taunting Rose Byrne, I was all "....Yeeeeeah, I'd still do him.")

So I am planning on reading Deathly Hallows eventually, but whether the eventually will be in the next few weeks or in, like, a year pretty much depends on how much work I would have to invest to get a copy. I mean, I don't care enough to pay for it (see: I just mistyped it as Deadly Hallows and had to redo it), and the library holds are in the hundreds, if not thousands. When Half-Blood Prince came out, I managed to read it after a few days due to internet tricks of dubious legality, but I don't know if that will happen again.

I am using this icon not because anybody has pissed me off, but because it has been way too long since I used it, and it makes me laugh. OH OLLIE.

peter o'toole is like unto sean connery : the amount of people who would still willingly do them even at that age is scary.

yet it is considered entirely reasonable for ian mckellen to be considered fuckable. (have you seen his legs?) mind you, I think they've got 20 years on him.

Ha, see, Sean Connery gives me an "ew, no way!" reaction. It is all so hard to fathom! McKellan I am right with you on, though.

IMDB says Connery 1930, O'Toole 1932, and McKellan 1939. I guess it's more respectable if they haven't hit the 70 mark yet?
