FYI I have made it. Only 5 minutes late because I decided to put on makeup to keep from being completely intimidated at the beauty salon and then decided to walk the two blocks instead of driving (yes I would drive those two blocks if need be because whatever takes y’know).
The new lady seems nice but still. The getting to know you small talk. I can do it and be charming but omg the internal effort.
Also I feel a little gross and sweaty because the walk-jog I did to not be too late but that’s neither here or there.
I have a hair appointment in half an hour but my social anxiety is telling me home is a much better place to be, even though I know I’ll be relieved once it’s over because my hair definitely needs some TLC. It doesn’t help that my appointment is with a new stylist that I don’t know and I’m dreading the “get-to-know-you” small talk.
This means I should change out of my pj’s and make myself presentable. *pout*
I downloaded Yesung’s solo album Here I Am yesterday, and while I think all the songs are excellent, I love this one the best – perhaps because the upbeat tempo and lyrics make it the perfect song for Springtime.
As I mentioned previously, The Good Wife had their first table read a few days ago, and here are pics to prove it. Lookit those faces! I’m excited about all of them except for maybe Nana (bless her gorgeous bone structure) since it seems confirmed that she’ll be taking on the Kalinda role. Which can only mean one thing – brace yourselves, fans of the original, for a reimagining of the role, since a sassy, fierce, bisexual investigator is probably not what the beautiful idol (with limited acting experience) will be portraying.
Also, some casting news! (I warned you there would be more although I’m still impatient to learn what grand lady of Dramaland will be cast as Jackie – whomever isn’t in Dear My Friends, I guess?)
Rookie-to-the-small-screen Chae Dong Hyeon has been cast as… something. I dunno. The article says he’ll play an important part, but I don’t have anything giving me connecting hints to the original show. A client, perhaps? This will be his drama debut, although he’s been busy in live theater up until now.
I’m also curious to know if the drama will just adapt the first season or add in storylines from all seven (or maybe I just want to know if we’ll get our very own Alan Cumming), but I suppose I’ll have to wait until July to find out.
