I was given leopard print cat ears at my Christmas function for work today. Huzzah! So excited, so much fun to wear. Then became very very over-excited .and went out and bought myself a black pair and a pair of bunny ears (suspect the wine was at least partially responsible). I want to wear animal ears EVERY DAY from now on. Once you've spent an afternoon in cat ears, your world will change for the better. And what could be more universally appropriate?
In other news, tomorrow is my last day of work for the year and I shall be then running away soon after. I want to sleep in so badly, like maybe for a thousand years or something.
Roller skating tomorrow. Cake now please.
Bonus Valley of the Dolls quote:
On Christmas Eve, Jennifer and Anne trimmed a small tree. Claude and a few of his friends were coming by.
"He leaves in ten days," Jennifer said wistfully.
"Do you really care for him? I mean really?" Anne asked.
Jennifer wrinkled her nose. "Well ... he's different. What do you think of him? Now be honest."
"I can't say. Half the time I don't understand him, and the other half you two are jabbering away in French while I sit trying to understand his buddy's broken English. But I did manage to decipher from his pal François that your Claude has a wife stashed away."
"Naturally. Probably a mistress, too," Jennifer said easily. Whenever I get stuck on a man you can be sure he's some kind of a louse. He wants me to come to Paris."
"You're not thinking of going!"
Jennifer shrugged. "He wants to star me in pictures over there. Says I'll be a smash, looking so American and speaking French ... He wants me to do sex pictures. Artistic - but semi-nude."
"What?"
"It's accepted over there, Anne. A lot of the big stars do it. It means nothing. Oh, I don't mean dirty pictures - I mean movies with a real plot. Only when you take a bath in a scene, they photograph it."
Arty French Sex movies! Yeah! Jennifer is finally going to make it at the advanced age of - twenty-seven. Fuck I love this book. Sometimes I laugh out loud.
