The Best Song from one of the Worst Babs Films Ever Made.

On a Clear Day You Can See Forever (1970), directed by Vincente Minelli and written by Alan Jay Lerner, is a ridiculous musical. It's a Barbra parade, and though it's all sort of fun, it's not made for one sitting. It's like a slice of fudge chocolate cake, but the kind that is so fudgy, you just can't handle more than three bites. I should also add that any Barbra movie has entertainment value...because, after all, it's Barbra.

Secondhand Rose


Am SUPPOSED to be packing. Kind of decided to play with my hair instead. Have been listening to my Funny Girl record a lot lately and it's just so much fun to sing along. I felt only slightly rude yesterday when my grandparents arrived and didn't quite understand why I had to sing along to "You are Woman, I am Man" instead of conversing with them like a normal human being. I did pin curls again last night (my hair length right now is nice but I feel best when it's somewhat curly) and then today I tried my amateur hand at a mini-faux-bang. I don't have a whole lot of forehead so I didn't go overboard. I look kind of silly, but I like it. I took pictures. You may observe.



I think it's kind of a sloppy job, but I'm not that obsessive about looking exactly perfect.

How to Get Him to Marry You According to Babs...

The fictional, Hollywood, Regency Period England version of Babs, anyway.  Oh, man.  Priceless.  Scarily, hilariously priceless.  Begin at 2:43.
