06/10/2005: "Pitt Pass"


I don't get Brad Pitt. He was on some mag cover this morning in the grocery store check-out lane and I thought the same thing I think every time I see him--I don't get it. I don't get his charm or attraction or sex appeal. I mean he seems like a decent enough guy and he's not gross and disgusting, but I'm not seeing that other stuff either. It sort of makes me feel like a sex-appeal moron, as in the rest of the world knows something that has escaped me. wink

I'm STILL working on this book. I've got about 30 pages to go. Please, everyone who reads this, pause to send me some writing vibes. rolls eyes

The Girl is psyched. We leave next week for a couple of days hiking on the Appalachian Trail. It'll be her first time out. How ready for a shower do you think she'll be after four days without one? big grin She asked me where we changed into our night clothes. Me: "Well, you sit at the head of your sleeping bag and pull off your boots and you're ready for bed." razz shocked razz shocked The look on her face was priceless.

I still haven't made it to the hair salon. Yes. I still have the bush head, complete with roots. I think I'd better find the time in finishing this book to at least get a cut, because the hair thing's definitely working my sleep-deprived, over-caffeinated nerves. I've even had more than a fleeting thought about digging out the electric trimmers, slapping a number two blade guard on that sucker and shaving my own head. It would grow back. Unfortunately, I wouldn't look like Demi in GI Jane, so I guess I better make that appointment, huh?

Back to work...

Nice to know that I'm not the only one who doesn't get the whole Brad Pitt phenomenon.

You are definitely not the only one. Brad doesn't do it for me, either, and aside from Legends of the Fall, he never has. He's also reportedly one of the smelliest stars in Hollywood. (He and Courtney Cox both made the stinky list.) shocked

Eww. There's truly no hope for me to ever see his charms now. I can't be digging smelly. sad No way. No how. I've got an acute sense of smell and ...no thanks. I bet Angelina's heaving a big sigh of relief at this news. LOL

BTW, where do you hear this stuff--like stinkiest, smelliest stars?

From the Temptation loop, of course. In fact, I think Vicki is the one who alerted me to the list. I googled it. Brad was at the top. big grin

"Some men admit they avoid confrontation (about breaking up) because they’re afraid we’ll cry. Of course we’ll cry; we cry at Hallmark commercials. What they don’t understand is that we’re not crying because of them, we’re crying because now we have to get naked in front of someone else.”
