OK, I was in the process of watching the new episode last night when the phone rang right before the second series of commercials came on. It was my friend Cristina -- the friend I'm going to London with. She has never flown before, and now she's flying from South Texas all the way to London, with stops in Houston and Newark, NJ. So of course, she's freaking out. I ended up speaking with her for about an hour. So...I'm grumpy. Missed all that "Daria". So...I'm desperate for reviews. I'll be reading y'all's reviews voraciously today.

But I'll still be setting my VCR to catch the rebroadcast on Sunday -- there IS going to be a rebroadcast, right? (checks paperpusher.simplenet.com) Oh it's on SATURDAY...*whew*...glad to see there's going to be a rebroadcast. :)

Damn, I have a lot to do. I not only have to tie up loose ends online in only 3 hours (I usually have a lot of e-mail to read every day plus I frequent several newsgroups, that sort of thing, and I go to several message boards too), but when I get back home I'm going to have to get traveler's checks, pack my suitcase, clean out my backpack and pack it, check in with a couple people whose mailing addresses I need to get (since I want to send them postcards), set up a call between my parents and Cristina's parents, set up my VCR to catch "Daria" on Saturday and "Ally McBeal" on Monday (I think I can hold off on Jay Leno's "Headlines" for one week), finish up the last bits of homework I want finished before I leave, AND get enough sleep so that I won't collapse. Excuse me for a minute...I'm gonna go off and hyperventilate.

And...if you wanna contact me before 6:30 a.m. Central time Friday morning, I'll be leaving my phone number with Rich and Alli (because their e-mail addresses are the only two ones I can think of at this moment and because they're just plain nice). So you can get it from them. I'm sorry to report I don't know country codes, though.

p.s.: (SPOILER ALERT)

Of all the scenes I DID get a chance to see last night...I loved the part where Cupid asked Daria who "made her feel like Queen Cleopatra" and she blurted out Trent's name. Hilarious little teaser. :) I'm DEFINITELY looking forward to recording this for posterity.

Wait...was that a bad review that I just read...? Oh no..."worse than 'Daria!'"? By those who didn't particularly LIKE the musical? Oh well...have to watch still....

deena lissa,

I'm new to this ng, but I now know it's the place for me. Where else could I find a Duranie Daria fan who likes Jay Leno's Headlines! <g> I like Jay-Walking better, it shows how stupid people really can be. Daria would probably like it.

Have a great trip to London!! I've been there 4 times. And if (pray not) your VCR fails, e-mail me. I have Depth... on tape, and a tape full of "Headlines"

:-)
