so far today:

- rearranged the entire living room. gosh it's awfully cute now.
- bought a small vacuum, freaked out the cats.
- bought x-men legends!
- desperately tried to find out if 'reverend lipton' from housesitter is related to/a twin of arthur from six feet under. stupid unhelpful interweb.

They're not twins, but they were definitely separated at birth.

Reverend Lipton is played by Christopher Durang who you will undoubtedly recognize as a wonderful playwright and screen writer. His picture (and dramatic personae, as it were) is on this page.

Arthur is portrayed by Rainn Wilson, whose visage and credits are available for retrieval over yonder.

Like the old man used to say, you just gotta hold your mouth right and squint a little. It also helps to know some appropriate cuss words. The ones Pop used to use when fixin' the lawn mower work pretty good on Google searches.

see ya!
PS: Show this to K. if you want. It just popped up on my radar today and I immediately thought of him, but I figured since it meant a change of scenery I had probably oughta clear it through you first. On second look it don't seem so grand, but jobs is jobs, as they say. Now that you've got a super-kabagi job, you just need to find a creative vocation for the kid and you're all set.

I did find info on both actors on IMDB, but I was frustrated because I just wanted them to be the SAME person. Ha. But aren't their mannerisms just eerily similar? I picture Rainn Wilson seeing Housesitter as a kid and having some kind of epiphany moment. Not to deride his talents---he is amazing on SFU.

Actually, one of my old best friends from college lives in White Plains, so it wouldn't be an inhospitable change of scenery, I guess. The main problem is just that White Plains is one of the most expensive suburbs (aside from Greenwich) of NYC and we have vowed never to live in NYC. Everyone who lives there has horrible breakups or basically withers on the vine from lack of money! Sad.

Three years ME exp! That's crazy. He's still apprenticed to Dave! But that is a good kind of job to look out for in the future, thanks for the heads up :)

Eventually I will be the dean and then we can just live on an estate somewhere while I rake in the cash and I will just pay him to write poetry and play pool all day long.
