You know you're getting old when ...
Remember how I said my interest in Hayden Panettiere could signify that she's my long-lost celebrity sister? Well I looked her up on IMDb - she was born in 1989! 1989!
I left home in 1989! I moved to London in 1989! She could, I suppose, be my long-lost celebrity daughter, but there's something I didn't do in 1989 (or 1988 for that matter) which rules that out. 1989. How can that be?
David's gone to the match and I'm full of cold so I'm having a night of tea and quality TV (Heroes taped from last week, Gilmore Girls, Ugly Betty, The L Word). Best get back to it.
Ha! You are so old. (born in 1982)

1989, I remember it well. Sigh.
I know exactly what you mean! I recently named a character after a film character from a well-known 1993 film, because I worked out that it would make her the right age for my book. 1993!! People born in 1993 are old enough to read books!!!

Am I the only one who thinks GG completely SUCKS this season? And as for HP, wasn't she Ally McBeal's daughter? Oh, and speaking of AB, watch Brothers & Sisters. Rob Lowe is SUCH the honey!!! Even if he *does* play a Republican. :-)

It's season 6 of GG I'm watching, Gabrielle. I've seen about 6 eps of season 7 and while I wouldn't say it sucked, it's not what it was and I hate where the story's gone. But I hated where it went part way through season 6 when Luke's long-lost daughter turned up.
And, yes, HP was Ally's long-lost daughter and that's when I stopped watching that show. Hate stupid long-lost daughter storylines!
Brothers & Sisters isn't on here yet. The second ep of Heroes was *so* much better than the first. Oh and thanks to Virgin taking over NTL and Sky getting in a snit about it, we've lost the channel that shows Rescue Me. Damn.

Where are you up to with Rescue Me? I can send you Season 3.
Posted by: Gabrielle | 01 March 2007 at 02:00 PM
Ooh, you angel, that would be fantastic. We've only seen the first ep of season 3 so that would be great. And it doesn't look like I'll be getting to Paris so I'll start parcelling up a box of goodies for you! Any requests? :)

Jeff and I had been dating a year by then.
You know... someone could have stolen your DNA and cloned her from you. Maybe, sort of... could have happened. :)

I know where I was on August 19th 1989!!

OK, I'll do Rescue Me. You want Brothers & Sisters, up to episode 16 or so? Any requests. Hmmm! Dairy Milk!!!

You've no idea who Hayden Panettiere is.

No, Barrie, that's reasonable. I only just saw her recently in Ice Princess and I bet you haven't watched Ice Princess ... yet. :)
