autographedcat: (bad day)

Today I am tired and grouchy and this entire week has been stressy.

So.....tell me something good in *your* life. It’ll cheer me up. Please?

And if that's really a picture of YOU in the icon space, well, I think you're awfully handsome. Was happy to see a black man's face on Tygerr's friends' page of all places . . .

So between Pablo Neruda poetry and the latest Justin Timberlake video, I hope you find something that makes you feel better. . .

Yes: SEXY IS BACK (thank you, Justin Timberlake!!!!)

(and yes: thoughts of sex always or usually tend to put a smile on my face. So long as it's good sex, mind you. . .)

Hope you have a much better day and week!

Oh: the following chant also helps me in ways that I can't understand (courtesy of once having studied Buddhism)

"My mind is calm and peaceful now. . .my mind is calm and peaceful now. . ."

I always say that, repeatedly, for about 5-10 minutes when I'm highly stressed. It works for me. Don't know why. Try it. It might help you, too. . .

Afraid not. The post icon is British actor Shaun Parkes. Check out "Casanova" if you get a chance, he's wonderfully sardonic in that.

This icon is an actual picture of me.

I'll check out the links when I get home. Thanks!

Thank you. I knew I had seen him in something before Doctor Who but hadn't got around to figuring out where.

Sorry for thinking that you were a black guy, but not that really makes any difference --- it's just that I don't 'see' a lot of black dudes on Live Journal (even via some of the black oriented LJ 'communities' I subscribe to so go figure! LOL!!!)

And it's not that a dude's race matters much to me, really. I pride myself on being "equal opportunity"! If you don't believe me, ask Tygerr! LOL!!!

And thanks for hipping me to Shaun Parkes. I DO have a thing for some of the black Brit actors/actresses, esp. when they "crossover" to do stuff here (as in the great chick. . .Trudie Joplin or something like that. . .who starred in "28 Days." I thought she was so brilliant and then wondered why I never saw her in anything else, for instance, but alas: she IS in the latest "Pirates of the Carribean" movie AND she plays Jamie Foxx's love interest in the new "Miami Vice" flick so I'm happy that Hollywood is giving Brits of a "different color" a chance to shine in films here. . .
So sorry to be totally "off topic," but yes: great movies and great acting makes me happy, too so. . .

Why not treat yourself to a really good movie, preferably a comedy? That will help you de-stress for, at least, a couple of hours or more (depending on the length of the movie).

Nonetheless: feel better! And remember: NOTHING is ever as bad as it originally seems (or at least that's what I've tried to make myself believe throughout my life!) and better yet --- if it's something that, truly, will not matter, let's say, five years from now or even one year from now or even one month from now then you can also say:

"This (stress/bad day/bad week, etc.) too, shall pass. . ."

Gotta run! Great "meeting" you via Tygerr's friends' page!

Hey, it doesn't bother me. :) If that sort of thing would upset me, I wouldn't use the icon.

No problem. I've only seen Parks in two things so far (Doctor Who & Casanova), and I'm eager to see him in other things. I really like his style.

Dunno if you are a SF fan, but the new companion on Doctor Who is Freema_Agyeman.

Why not treat yourself to a really good movie, preferably a comedy? That will help you de-stress for, at least, a couple of hours or more (depending on the length of the movie).

I'm thinking tonight might be a good time to break out hte new Animaniacs DVD I picked up yesterday. Or maybe watch Rocky & Bullwinkle. :)

Oh, I know it will. It's not even *so* bad. But the nice thing about having a big friends list is being able to ask them for cheerful distractions when you need them!

Gotta run! Great "meeting" you via Tygerr's friends' page!

You too!

Well, I'm happy that you're already feeling much better!

And thanks for the other recommendations on Shaun Parkes.

And, yes: Rocky and Bullwinkle are guaranteed to make ya smile.

Take care!

Was reading a review of the "Miami Vice" flick and saw that the black British actress I was referring to is not named Trudie Joplin as I suggested in your post. Instead it's Naomi-something (I wanna say Naomi Wolff,but now fear that I'm thinking of the neo-feminist author instead. . .). Anyway: she IS the chick who was the undisputed star of the movie "28 Days" and she IS amazing if you've never seen that film before.

Oh: and since Tygerr has explained to me what "filk" is (I didn't have the slightest clue. . .) maybe you can make a science fiction song off of the tune/music of "Sexyback" (see me giggle!). . .!
