By the Way

Sex and the City was fun. The breakfast was pretty good--sausake, scrambled eggs, pancakes and coffee--although the lunch was a bit of a bust. The scene involved Kim Cattrall (I would've loved to have seen SJP) addressing us guests at a charity function for breast cancer. This was definitely the last episode, BTW; in fact, it was the penultimate day of shooting. I have to say, I was one of the best-dressed people there. There were people in some right tacky outfits--one girl was really out of place; she looked about 14 and had a short, Madonna-esque blue dress with crimped red hair.

I will also say, my determination never to get a tattoo is renewed. They look incredibly tacky when wearing an elegant dress.

I was exhausted and kept taking catnaps whenever I could. When I could stay awake, I read Triangle, David von Drehle's book about the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire. Really good book. There was a woman sitting nearby in the holding room who noticed me and commented on the book. I overheard a lot of nervous actor talk, which irritated me. I honestly have a difficult time around many actors--so many of them are so insecure and nervous and anxious and constantly talkingtalkingtalking about their career. I'd rather hear about their craft or their art.

That all depends on the location of the tattoo ;)

You'll have to let me know when that episode airs, since I don't follow the series.

I'm glad you had a good time at the shoot (anything more about a SAG card?). You will have to tell us when the episode airs wit some notice so that I can figure out where to watch it, since I don't have HBO. :)
