So we're watching The Muppet Show this morning, and the following conversation ensues:

Charlie: You know who is my favourite?

Me: *Thinking Kermit? Gonzo?* No, who?

Charlie: *emphatically* Connie Stevens

Me: Connie Stevens? She's your favorite? Why?

Charlie: She's so cute

Kinsey

Saw the movie Kinsey on Sunday. It was okay. Interesting. Made me want to find out where I fall on the Kinsey scale.

Anyway...I'm not sure how accurate Liam Neeson's portrayal of Kinsey was, but based on his performance, I wonder if Kinsey didn't have an Autism Spectrum Disorder. His bluntness, his focus on the minutia of things and his occasional inability to deal with people all struck me as some sort of Asburgers.

For example, in the film he is brutally honest about things - when he had a homosexual affair with this guy* he told his wife what he did, and when he overheard the same guy telling the wife that he was getting bored with the man-sex, instead of bounding in and pretending he didn't hear anything, he joined in the conversation.




*FYI for those who haven't seen it yet, there is full frontal male nudity sported by Chris O'Donnell. As I was the only straight girl in the room watching this, it went unremarked upon.

Your Emotional Intuition score is a measure of how well you understand people, especially their unspoken needs and sympathies. A high score score usually indicates social grace and persuasiveness.

Your Scientific Intuition score tells you how in tune you are with the world around you; how well you understand your physical and intellectual environment.

More memeing, because it is that kind of a day

Chances are, people you don't even know are being introduced to your journal every day -- either randomly or through someone else. In addition to recent entries, people can get to know you better by what you posted in the past. With that in mind, post a link to your entries on this day exactly six months ago, nine months ago, a year ago, and a link to your first entry. If there was no entry on any of those days, link the closest date(s).

Sheeh

It tells you something about my career history that when the Big Boss guy asked me to meet him in the conference room I almost had a heart attack before I registered him saying 'everyone' was coming in.

Turns out our HR person resigned.
