Ethan Hawke for the fourth time

Or is it fifth?

I saw EH strolling down the avenue where I live, looking very debonair. He has gained maybe 5 pounds, bringing him up from "gaunt" to "thin." He looked good.

I do feel like I know him by now. Maybe I should arrange a play date with E and his kids? I heard he just had a new baby...

And he lives just a few blocks away (or so I'm told).

I've not seen anyone famous yet. Well, hmm, I wonder if the owners of the company I work for are famous? But... I don't think that counts.

You could make it onto Celebrity Baby Blog! (I admit it's my guilty pleasure)

i went to college with him - well, before he dropped out after his second semester to film Dead Poets' Society and become rich and famous and marry Uma Thurman.

He was sort of an asshole, but most of the freshman acting students were, so take that for what it's worth. BUT he looked then and still does (at least in pictures) as if he needed a good scrub. Does he in real life?

! That is so cool. I can't believe you went to school with him!

He looks pretty clean now. I guess his hair is slightly greasy.

I suppose the fact that you live near him makes these sightings understandable, but still, I find that EH is an interesting choice for coincidence to make. It's like when I heard that Paula Abdul had a stalker. Why Paula? Why Ethan Hawke and no one else?

BTW, I just typed in "celebrity baby blog." That is a dangerous road to go down!

I've actually seen other celebs, but none so frequently as him. We used to go to a restaurant uptown where Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick always were...

And my very first NY celebrity was Susan Sarandon, back in '99.

I'll always think of EH as greasy, especially after Reality Bites.

Vegetable personalities

At the risk that you'll all think I'm nuts...but heck. I was getting cauliflower ready for dinner and it occurred to me that vegetables have different personalities. In my mind, anyway. Zucchini: the most agreeable of vegetables. It blends in with everyone, but it's never obsequious or false to itself. Sweet potatoes: the grandmother of vegetables. Very cozy and welcoming. Cauliflower: kind of bland, devoid of personality, but it could surprise you sometimes. Like a dull guy who occasionally tells a funny joke at the water cooler. Broccoli: feisty. Like a terrier. Spinach: kind of dour, but a loyal friend. Kale: has a fierce sense of individuality, but like spinach, is a loyal friend. Kale's affections last for life. Corn: this one is kind of a party animal. Corn is still drinking beer and making a mess when you'd like to be closing up. Tomatoes: a little sloppy. The kind of vegetable that needs to be reminded to tuck its shirt into its pants. Cabbage: not invited t...

happy birthday e!

[Posted by Bearette's husband until she has Internet access] e was born today! 8 pounds even, a cute and healthy baby boy. He likes to stick out his tongue just a little, and move his mouth around. The hospital gave him a little white hat with a purple pom pom. Bearette is tired but happy. Pictures soon.

Eventful

A lot has happened today already. I went to meet D for lunch and along the way I spotted a Boston terrier -- one blue eye, one brown. I stooped to pat it and then I heard an ear-bruising screech!! Everyone's head whipped around. Even the dog jumped. A taxi had squealed to a halt and there was a delivery boy on its hood. Somebody yelled, "Call an ambulance!" The boy seemed fine, even hopping on his bike to finish his deliveries -- but everyone persuaded him to stay. I took out my cell phone but another woman was already giving details to 911. After the woman finished the call, I was satisfied that help was on its way, so I continued. There were a bunch of rubberneckers/supporters gathered around the boy, so he wasn't alone. The dog stayed too. I was shaken by this, of course, but then something amusing happened. A few blocks later, I knelt down to pat a beagle tied outside a coffee shop, and it let loose with this big mournful howl: AROOOO. Everyone smiled, including a...
