DIANNE WIEST JUST CALLED ME

Fuck off, seriously? For what? Did she tell you not to speak?

You guys, the electricity in our house was off ALL DAY. I couldn't do any work. Now I have to work the weekend. ESB wankers.

she called to order tickets for this shakespeare situation with ian mcKellen. he's in King Lear this month )opening night tonight!!)

oh my god. i was like, well this is a Patron office, are you a Patron? cuz she sounded kinda like hesitant. and she was like Yes, my name is Dianne Wiest.

How cool!

omg and of course she had like the SAME EXACT VOICE she has in the movies, that really sweet soft thing. i really barely knew what to do with myself.

i gave her an aisle seat.

right??!!

So, where do you work that you have people like this calling you? And can you get me tickets to good Shakespeare shows? Love a bit of well-acted Bardery, me.

You know what else I like? That Brothers and Sisters programme. I never cared much about him before, but I would shag all this Rob Lowes.

Brooklyn Academy of Music in Brooklyn, NY - one time, HOlly Hunter rang me up. My direct line! she's another one of those ppl who you just KNOW the voice. her assistant touched base me with soonafter saying "yeah sometimes she just does that - we don't know who she calls."

ya i can get u tickets! if u live in nyc that is :-)

"yeah sometimes she just does that - we don't know who she calls."

Those damn celebrities thinking they can pick up the phone anytime they please.

I do not live in NYC. Sadface.

But when I come to visit I will for sure be hitting you up for tickets, so I can look cool in front of people. "Oh yes," I will say, "I'll just give my pal Surmounter a call. Tix will be no problem."

They will be in AWE of my transatlantic cool.

haha sam i kno, they RING PEOPLE UP??!

sounds good to me accent :-)

btw in case u should want to call me by a name and not a handle, it's Ramzi (which i feel like ppl kno but maybe not?). like Bambi, but Ramzi.

Hi Ramzi!

Of course I will still call you Surmounter. It makes us seem weirder.

Surmounter! I will be in your hood, watching your McKellens lear about the place on Sunday Sept 16!

Maybe you can tell me how bad my seats are, and I can bring you some real Texas salsa or something?

I don't sound like Dianne Wiest in person or on the phone, though.

hahaha! that's so cool ur coming :-) 3pm matinee ya?

it's cool there is room for others beside dianne =)

and yes u r right accent it would definitely be wrong to not use handles ;)

I am sooooo onimo-ed. I can barely tyeperere...

Jarvis doing Boys are Back in Town = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IvDIOBMc4s

Sigh.

I wuv him.

He was great fun. I am planning on falling asleep in Merrion Square listening to "Babies".

I cannot get Mister M to see the point of either Pulp or solo-Jarvis, and I keep assuring him that this is because he has never had the live experience.

I remember seeing Pulp on the His 'n' Hers tour in the SFX in Dublin, and they apologised profusely for the fact that there was no bar in the venue. Jarvis assured us that if he'd known that, he never would have booked the place.

Looool... Shortly after "I will Kill again" he announced that he would be wandering amongst us that night. I said to neighbour that it was decent of him to give us a warning like that :)

How's your onimoedness?

Dying here. Thinking of lunch. Looks like soup (or more cornflakes).

You should have a cupasoup with a slice of really fresh white bread broken up in it. That used to be my favourite hangover lunch when I needed them.

Fish soup? <waits for vomiting noise>

Careful, Aldo. He can hit you from where he is. That's how Onimoed he is.

I haven't been onimo-ed for ages. I anticipate getting v drunk tomorrow watching the Scotland game (and then the England game, and probably two of the Ireland game. My latest attempt at losing weight will no doubt crumble in a pile of kebab "meat".

I am treating myself to a half day today, having made up oodles of time.

I have the kids this weekend so there will be on onimoedness for me until possibly Monday morning. I also suspect I will see none of the football, but this may be because I am wiiing.

I'm under orders to keep my wii under wraps.

Ha ha Miso has been considered (xxxpost). It was rejected because too far away!

Lucky bastard Onimo. I like the way you no longer resist the use of your name in vain :) (xxpost)

Oooo how many kids? Yay for Wii. I want one! I'm taking care of my (older) cousin. I will also need to write like a motherfucker so Rock H doesn't kill me chili verde style!

I'm sure my kids have been on this very thread in my holiday snaps. But this is MY WII o, so I don't need an excuse to hide it away. (You did set it up at work on your giant projector, right? Just to "check it worked"?

I will also need to write like a motherfucker so Rock H doesn't kill me chili verde style!

He will simply send me. I live closer and work clean.

Jesus christ, Byrne, go back to work!

I like the way you no longer resist the use of your name in vain

At least it's for something worthwhile(ish). Rather that than have my 'name' associated with serial asshattery or trolling.

xpost no I didn't. I did once set up Doom on a HUGE screen in a previous job. Made me motion sick.

I'd feel too guilty if I played it before the kids. Christmas is feckin miles away and mrs o won't let me give them the wii for their birthdays.

Mrs o is RONG RONG RONG. Offer to buy her a bottle of Mad Dog or something to win her over.

I have it half written. I just need to put album reviews in. Also remove swears in case aged wrinklies read it.

Oh wow re. projector.

I remember teh kids! sorry, easily confused today.

I'd feel too guilty if I played it before the kids. Christmas is feckin miles away and mrs o won't let me give them the wii for their birthdays.

OMG she is such a MONSTER!

(joke btw)

I've called her worse and had to apologise for fucking months.

Lolz

I read that as and had to apologise for fucking moths

I nearly wet myself:

I am dying here. DYING.

Had emergency battered sausage chips and beans for lunch and a can of Irn Bru. I'm not sure if it can hold back the ruin. Oh g0d. Oh yrg. Help.

The tummy is complaining big time. IDIOT STOMACH do you not know what's good for you?

Oh heck three more hours to go. THREE WHOLE HOURS. Argh!

I recommend a very milky tea with two sugars more than you usually take in it. Looking at Wiggy McGann might help you too.

I will also need to write like a motherfucker so Rock H doesn't kill me chili verde style!

So let's see here, you don't like chilies, you don't like fish...you're one of those people who only eat well-done beef and mashed potatoes, aren't you? Trish is right, I'm going to send her round to your place for some harsh "re-education."

oh, so THAT's what she does to pay the bills, is it?

B-b-but... I don't like milky tea at the best of time and don't take sugars at all!

I am really actually feeling quite sick now and would be very surprised if I were not an uncomfortable shade of green. Haha! Wiggy McGann! I am watching Shonen Club tat on youtube for distraction but it's losing out to the nausea. UGH!

No wait, I LOVE food and cooking! I'm actually a good cook, I'm just not into fish people. Yes, I know it's wrong, I try it as often as possible but I just can't get into the taste really. Re-education (i.e. a free feed) would be appreciated though!

Sarah what were you up to that caused such ruination? (I know you were drinking obviously)

Lordy, turn my back for half a second and this thread totally gallops away! I just had to do major homework. Ramzi/Surmounter, I love your name!
My son consented to have his 23rd birthday dinner with US, his boring parents, because he had to wake up early for work the next day and also because I bought him a lobster. Mr BP and I have had our lifetime lobster dose and will vomit if we have to eat one more. Every houseguest wants 'em. Blurgh. I have to go vomit right now, just thinking about it.
So kv-nol, if you visit us you will be safe from at least one form of noxious seafood.

oh, so THAT's what she does to pay the bills, is it?

I don't pay bills. I FIX EM.

Good news, everyone. I've just discovered that my work has nothing for me to do for the early part of next week, and so I can stretch out the work I have at the moment to take me up to Tuesday, which means I can doss the rest of this lovely sunny Friday away. Huzzah! I can finish that book about the Charge of the Light Brigade I've been reading.
