1. I found myself reading this in my email. Then I decided to write an answer. I guess I found myself and I'm a writer. Who knew?
2. Oh I'll tell you why. It's because even three ounces of FroYo will put ten pounds of permanent (the worst kind of) fatty flesh on your bootie immediately. You think you'll well, you will be spilling out of that bikini thong and not in a sexy way before you know it. And you can't return it if you've worn it!!! If there is a lingerie store next to an ice cream shop, pick one or the other and wait a month to return and try the one you didn't try first. Whether it's ice cream or lingerie, good for you for your hard-won cup, cone, or panties.
3. Sure. As long as it's only voters. With big rocks. That we throw at the candidates. We cut paper into pieces with scissors. Write our candidate's name on the paper, attach it to a rock and throw. That's as deep as I want to go today.
4. It's Robert Altman because Woody Allen's complete oeuvre is depressing and so is Ingmar Bergman's. I want to be entertained, right?
5. I make time for lollygagging every day. Between every task whether it's answering these questions, or washing my clothes I lollygag. In fact, I've lollygagged so long on this clothes thing, I'm like out of underwear. I need new lingerie... help!
"Whether it's ice cream or lingerie, good for you for your hard-won cup, cone, or panties." I don't know why, but this feels like the kind of energy America needs right now.
There are some Welles misses too, but I don't think they're fair to put on Welles because the studio had a heavy hand in edits. I remember seeing two or three different version of The Magnificent Ambersons; my sense is if a director's cut can ever be found, it'll be right up there with the rest of Orson's filmography.
I don’t think you’re at goat yoga as I read this unless goat yoga starts at 5 a.m. Oh! I hope you remembered to set your clocks ahead and aren’t an hour late for goat yoga. And then I remember, this is 2025 and your magical pocket computer advanced the time on its own. Happy goat yogaing!
I don't usually lollygag, but I do often dillydally. And if I am dillydallying, I am probably by myself because to find someone in the mood to dillydally at the same moment you are in the mood to dillydally, is not usual. I will often hear from someone I am with say "hey, come on, don't dillydally or we'll be late"! But if I am alone, I believe I am more prone to dillydally. So in closing, I am not a lollygagger but consider myself a dillydallyer.
Lingerie stores and ice cream stores usually put it in their lease that the other can't be with 500 feet. The ice cream store owner doesn't want women to look in the lingerie store window and say, "If I have an ice cream, I'll never fit in that!" and the lingerie store owner doesn't want women to look at the ice cream store and say, "I'll have that ice cream today and be too bloated to try on the lingerie."
4) Thinking of what movies I can watch over and over again I have to say George Roy Hill, and if the only movie is “The Sting” I’m fine with that. Once went to a triple feature with my parents. “The Sting” was the last feature and we weren’t planning to stay since we’d seen it before but we were like, let’s just watch the first bit, and guess what, we stayed for the whole thing.
1. Yes. Most people do, they just don’t stop looking.
2. Sensory overload.
3. Sure. I wonder how the Republicans will try to gerrymander that.
4. Sorry, Michael; it’s Welles. Or Hitchcock.
5. Maybe. I’ll get back to you.
Welles or Hitchcock. Damn you've got good taste, sir.
*shrug* I like what I like.

Thanks, Michael!
What’s up with all the crazy price plant stores all the sudden? And yes, they were both right.
I know! Plant stores are out of control.
Drive by filming! This was hilarious.
WGA requires 3 women in their 20s—Haha. And this year’s Oscar’s required sex workers.
4. Welles. Altman is hit or miss.

Interesting! Didn’t know about the various versions.
Love it! A day in the life of a cinematographer. My famous brother would be knowingly nodding.
If you're brother has free time and he's looking for a gig, tell him to hang out on Ventura Boulevard.
I’ll pass your advice along! 😂
1. No, I’m always lost somewhere.
2. Kids. The human kind not the goat kind.
3. Sounds like a better system, at least it would be more fun.
4. It’s been awhile since I’ve seen an Altman film. But I do remember enjoying them back in the day.
5. I am a lollygagger to the core. I usually have no where to be. (See #1)
Hardcore lollygagger

OK, you're right. I'm heading out to do goat yogi in about two hours or so
"It was an insulting question for 2025, but I assured her I wasn’t the San Fernando Valley’s answer to Rip Van Winkle."
AND SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHO RIP VAN WINKLE WAS.
I cackled.
You are brilliant. Your dialogue would have made a much better movie.
1. Still looking. I assume I'll find myself once I stop looking ... like with car keys.
2. Follow up question: Why aren't more lingerie shops IN ice cream shops. And vice versa.
3. I propose a double-dutch jump rope jump off to decide the winner.
4. I choose Robert Altman because he's suddenly the only director I can think of. Must have been something I read.
5. No. I'm a busybody. Which is way worse. 😈
6. Miss ya, bud!
You are a true professional, Michael - wait, are we still rolling?
That story was soooo LA.
