Pop culture round-up...

Is it weird that I teared up a little during the Today show when they showed Hillary stopping the roll call vote, and noted that today is the 45th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr's "I have a dream" speech? Perhaps. But I will own up to it.

And now, this very exciting news: a sequel to Center Stage. Whoop!

Also, some fall tv starts up next week. Huzzah! Will you be watching 90210? I've decided that I will try it. Loved this interview with Jennie Garth & Shannen Doherty over on EW's website.

I'm caught up on Saving Grace (can't believe it's over til March already...) and The Closer. I never used to be much for the police procedural, but I dig both of those.

Loved Vicky Christina Barcelona. I figured I would. If Woody Allen movies aren't your thing, it probably won't wow you, but I like movies where people talk a lot. :-) Javier Bardem absolutely blows my mind--he's the kind of actor who can just do anything (and already kinda has). I've never been to Barcelona, but now would totally love to go.

And that's about the it. I'm slogging through the first draft of a new manuscript, which means I'm even more tired than usual. But it's coming along & hopefully I can get it sent off to co-authors sometime next week. My September already looks kinda crazy (another three state month: Indiana, GA, and out to Seattle), so I'm trying to get stuff done now. (sigh.)
