new celebrity list!
my first "personals-ad" date

'k, so i had made up my celebrity list before, but wasn't *entirely* happy with it, so i've made a new one. (this one's laminated, i promise!)

1. guy pearce (he's knocked brad pitt from the #1 slot! can i just mention how *very yummy* he is??? especially in memento, which you should go see *right away*. RIGHT AWAY, i tell you!)
2. brad pitt (he's gotta be #2--he is so veeerrrrrry nice)
3. hugh jackman (another aussie!)
4. ewan mcgregor (so cute in moulin rouge)
5. james marsters (spike, from buffy)

it's very very hot and sticky here in philly just now, so i'm sleeping with my windows open, even though the street noise (cars, sirens, people yelling, car alarms, dogs barking...) is a little annoying. i just wish the annoying sitar music from across the street would stop. [sigh]

oh! i had a date last night! ryan (a guy whose personals ad i answered) and i went down to gojjo (a local ethiopian restaurant/dive bar) and watched the sixers game (game 4 in the finals against the lakers. they lost, 100-86, and are now down 3-1, so it's not lookin good. not that i give a @*$% about sports in general and basketball in particular). anyway, it was fine. not fabulous, but not horrible either. ryan is a stocks-trader-in-training, and is perhaps just a *touch* bland. but, i think i'll give him another shot. he's a member of the philly zoo, so i think we'll go to the zoo on our next date. he's certainly smart, and he likes travelling (he's been to interesting places, including thailand and the amazon), and he's decent looking.
