Where's My Music, iTunes?

I bought an iPod last year. It is possibly the BEST investment I have made since.....since....well, it was a great buy. I listen to my iPod EVERYWHERE I go....in the car, at the gym, on a plane, walking around the city, walking from our condo to the parking lot (I swear that the other people in my building think I'm anti-social), etc.
So I've downloaded a ton of songs from CDs to my iPod as well as singles that are not worth buying a whole CD for via the iTunes store. I'm talking about singles that I have loved since the 80s that I probably wouldn't dare go into a music store to buy a CD for without some embarrassment (ie - Expose). I thought the iTunes store had everything - rarities, b-sides, etc. to save me from those embarassing situations. But imagine my surprise at how easy it was for me to buy 'Respect Yourself' by Bruce Willis and June Pointer (of Pointer Sisters fame) but not 'We Don't Have To (Take Our Clothes Off)' by Jermaine Stewart or '(My Girl Wants To) Party All the Time' by Eddie Murphy. It's a travesty. Here are some other songs that I wanted to get off iTunes only to find that they don't have it (and no, I don't want the karaoke version):
'My Sweet Lord' by George Harrison
'Breakin' - Ain't No Stopping Us' by Ollie and Jerry
'Feel Good Time' by P!nk (I bought the Charlie's Angels 2 Soundtrack just for this song)

If anyone knows where I can find these songs, including Jermaine Stewart and Eddie Murphy, I'm open to suggestions.

The 'Not So Obvious' Hunk

So I had started this other post when I first read that Dermot Mulroney and Katherine Keener were divorcing a couple of days ago but I don't think it relayed my sentiments very well so I'm giving it another stab since the thought was sparked by Amy's post about how Dermot Mulroney has something about him that makes him attractive.
With People Magazine coming out with their 'Hottest Bachelors' list this weekend, I decided that maybe (just maybe) we should pay tribute to those that will not be pictured in this weekend's 'Hottest Bachelors' issue.
Daniel Craig is a 'Not So Obvious' hunk to me. (But I think a bunch of ladies all over the world would disagree with me since 'Casino Royale' has been out.) He's not conventionally good looking, like Brad Pitt or David Beckham. But there's just something about him that puts that silly looking grin on my face whenever I see him...sigh!
Dermot Mulroney fits in this category as well - often overlooked when a bunch of girlfriends are sitting together talking about hot men unless a picture of him is right in front of you and then you remember....'oh yeah, Dermot.' I might even throw him in the 'ruggedly handsome' category...but he's handsome nonetheless.
There are a ton of 'not so obvious' hunks out there - I wonder when People Magazine will have an issue dedicated to them.

No Fair!!

From the Washington Post:

"Ryan Gosling with a large party enjoying shrimp brochettes, fajitas and a mariachi band at Dupont's Lauriol Plaza Tuesday night. The heartthrob Oscar nominee was in town for two days of lobbying on the crisis in northern Uganda, a cause now catching up to Darfur in terms of drawing Hollywood firepower. Tall for a movie star."

First, my friend Jen N. runs into Drew Barrymore in Dupont Circle. Then, Jen Liu runs into PRINCE!! in London. When is it going to be my turn??! My George Costanza sighting from 4 years ago just isn't enough to keep me going.

I Feel Pretty...So What?!

I like to dress nice when I go to work eventhough our office is business casual (although in the summer, it looks like a day at the ballpark for some). I don't come to work in suits or anything - just summer dresses, nice heels or flowy skirts with cute sandals. I mean isn't summer the time where you get to show off your arms and legs and perfectly manicured toes? Or in my case, my farmer tan, sock lines and bruised legs from softball?
So today I donned a new silk, trapeze dress I got from Nordstrom. It's cute with big flower prints and I threw a black cardigan over it because 1) it's kind of chilly today and 2) to make it more work-friendly.
From my own group, who are used to my form of dress and know that I LOVE fashion, I've received several compliments already. It's nice to get compliments. But then I went to get a drink at the cafeteria and I got some strange looks from women. I got the feeling that they thought I was overdressed.
What do I say to that....'So What?!' I feel pretty, oh so pretty....(ok, i'll stop there with the song & dance).
There are plenty of women in this office that don't dress nice enough and we're supposed to be IT professionals. Instead, I see frumpy and dumpy coming down the halls and I kind of roll my eyes and think 'they're just screaming for a makeover.' I wouldn't want to go through the censure that I put others through so therefore, I dress nice - maybe it's a little too nice but I don't care cause I feel good and feeling good is half the battle - Yo Joe (what? wait....whatever).

Wow, I'm . . . .Old.

So I was watching the news today (okay, by "news," I mean Access Hollywood). They're really talking up this Matt Lauer interview with Prince William and Prince Harry next week. But here's where they got me: evidently, if she were still alive, Princess Diana would be celebrating her 46th birthday this year. And she died almost 10 years ago. So she was only 36 when she died??? Holy crap. Is it just me? Or didn't she seem older? That's only three years older than me. When did I get old?

P.S. I don't care what anyone else says, Prince Harry's the hot one.
