- mannequin (1987) mannequin features two faces i've been seeing a lot of this month, andrew mccarthy & estelle getty. mccarthy plays a guy who falls in love with a mannequin (or more accurately, an ancient egyptian woman who time travelled into the body of a mannequin), played by kim cattrall, when she was a little less herpes (i kid, i kid, i actually quite like her...especially after she played britney's mom in crossroads, hoot hoot!). a pretty radical sequel was made a few years later starring kristy swanson, which i actually think is a little better than the first. also features james spader as a somewhat snivelling department store employee.
also, if anyone wants to track this jacket & hat down for me, that'd be swell.
tv shows:
- full house (1987-95) season two, ep 12. dj & kimmy tape over uncle jesse's newly recorded jingle with their own version of the loco-motion. after he rightly tells off dj, he feels bad & buys her a frickin' drum kit! then danny gets angry at jesse for both buying dj a drum kit & yelling at her! these kids get away with freakin' murder! and they're always up so goddamn late, partying with their uncles! it was a stretch for me to be allowed to stay up until 8pm to watch this show when i was their age! damn kids, making me get out the exclamation marks!
food & drink:
- passionfruit bubble cup.
- strawberry daiquiri (good!) and chips (baaaaaaaad) at tgi friday's happy hour (what a gaudy place! everything i expected).
- spring onion pancake & dumplings at dumpling specialist (excellent).
challenges/comments:
i really miss T2 tea. i quite like some varieties of twinings, but none really compare to my favourite T2 blends. tea & cake has become an important part of my day (ahhh, i am truly approaching my thirties now), so this shit matters, ok?
