Thank you to everyone who chimed in with their character suggestions yesterday! If you haven't yet, there's still time - I'll be choosing the winner next week.So hey! It's Friday! I've had Eggs Benedict and a double espresso for breakfast, and I'm happy to report that I am finally going to see The King's Speech this evening (albeit in Leicester Square, which is the congregation point of all screaming teens from the suburbs). Still, I'm excited TO BE LEAVING THE FLAT!
Oh, a big thanks to Ellen from Pink Tea and Paper for her lovely review of The Hating Game. Yay!
Big news today from the A to Z Team: we have more hosts to help bring in even more participants for the April challenge. This year I'm taking part in the A to Z Challenge and am honored to be one of the hosts. The others are Arlee Bird, Alex Cavanaugh, Candace Ganger, Jen Daiker, Jeffrey Beesler, Stephen Tremp, and Karen Gowen. Have you signed up yet? Click the photo on my sidebar to join the fun!
What is the A to Z Challenge?
It’s blogging a letter of the alphabet every day the month of April (with Sundays off for good behavior.) It begins April First with the letter A and ends April 30 with the letter Z. Get in the habit of blogging on schedule and meet loads of new bloggers!
Have a great weekend, everyone!
Yay! Looking forward to the A-Z Challenge, it sounds like a lot of fun! Enjoy The King's Speech and have a great weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteEggs benedict and The King's Speech? That is the PERFECT day. Have a great time!
ReplyDeleteSounds like your morning started out on the perfect note. Already on board for the A-Z. Enjoy the film.
ReplyDeleteHave fun doing the a-z challenge! I've a feeling it'll inspire a lot of creativity.
ReplyDeleteI've been dying to see The King's Speech and still haven't. I bet you'll love it although I dd cringe when you said you were going to see it in Leicester Square. The emos and the teenie boppers will be out in full force.

Hi Talli - enjoy the King's Speech tonight .. should be good - despite the teen crush!! Yea .. I'm in the A-Z .. and more hosts - excellent news ..
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the weekend .. cheers Hilary
The King's Speech is awesome. Well deserving of all the success and hype.
ReplyDeleteThe A-Z challenge it going to be a blast, I can't wait!
Ahhh, eggs benedict sounds really good right about now (9am for me)...Already on board for the A-Z challenge! What are you up to now? I'll have to look. :) Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteIf April wasn't right smack in the middle of midterms for spring quarter at university, I would most definitely participate. Otherwise... my blog entries would probably read like:
ReplyDeleteA is for Abhorrence. I abhor studying.
B is for Bullshit. I think studying is bullshit.
C is for Craptastic. Studying makes for a craptastic use of my time.
;)
The combination of the King's Speech and eggs Benedict sounds just about perfect to me.
ReplyDeleteOh thank you so much for reminding me to sign up for the A to Z challenge! Heading there now. . .
ReplyDeleteI still haven't seen The King's Speech yet but I definitely plan to at some point. Have tons of fun - weave stylishly through the tourists in Leicester Square!
ReplyDeleteThe King's Speech is fantastic!! I loved it, Talli, and I think you probably will too!
ReplyDelete(Let's hope the Leicester Square fans won't ruin it for you)

I still haven't been to see The King's Speech and can't wait to do so.
ReplyDeleteI started a comment yesterday, but was at work and had to quickly come off the Internet!!!
I was trying to think of a name for your character, but all I could come up with was Tallulah Vane.
Enjoy that movie, I've heard so much good talk about it ... Have a nice weekend :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't had eggs benedict in ages and I've been craving it--sounds good. We're sailing towards 300 for A to Z! Thanks to some great team captains and all of the wonderful bloggers out there.

Tossing It Out and the Blogging From A to Z April Challenge 2011
Enjoy the movie. And the Challenge is going to be a blast!
ReplyDeleteI'm still considering taking part in the A to Z Challenge....
ReplyDeleteThinking I could just do one movie review a day all month. And I'd go alphabetically, A to Z. Not sure if I'm up to it, though.
I salute those who do go through with the project.
You're gonna LOVE The Kings Speech!!x
ReplyDeleteThe A to Z is looking good, so looking forward to it,
ReplyDeleteYvonne,

Oooh. I'm not sure I could manage to blog every day. Right now, twice a week is pushing it for me. But this does sounds like fun!
ReplyDeleteWord verification: singbzby (I like that!)
This sounds fab but I just can't fit it in along with everything else plus working full time :(
ReplyDeleteHave fun with the A to Z challenge, Talli!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could participate on the A to Z!! But with work it's just so freaking hard, stupid accounting job...
ReplyDeleteAnd I did see the Kings Speech, I really liked it, so I think you'll have fun Talli!
Enjoy the movie and your weekend - and have fun with your blog challenge!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the King's Speech yet, but am dying to - hopefully this week! Have a lovely weekend!
ReplyDeleteHi there! I signed up for the challenge and was advised to stop by and say hello since I'm new to bloggin! I look forward to reading your words :)
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait for The King's speech to come out on DVD so i can watch it in English!
ReplyDeleteI'll be too busy with the crusade to take the A to Z challenge, but it sounds like a lot of fun. There's so much going on in Blogland!
ReplyDeleteWoohoo I'm so excited for the A-Z challenge!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy "The King's Speech"! I haven't seen it yet, but I heard it's a wonderful movie. :)
Hope you LOVED "The King's Speech." I thought it was a great movie!
ReplyDeleteI saw the King's Speech during the holidays, and I'll be seeing it again tomorrow, just in time to do a pre-Oscars review of it in my blogs.
ReplyDeleteSounds like fun! Hope you have a great weekend :) I want to see The King's Speech too.
ReplyDeleteYikes. And craziness! I can't wait for the challenge...
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the King's Speech as did my mum who is 90 years old, and remembers vividly the speech being broadcast. I think that's one of the successes of this film, it can appeal to almost any age. Hope you enjoyed it.
