routines can be wonderful things . . . U get things done without really having to think about them . . . shopping early on Saturday morning at Fairway for example before it gets too crowded . . . if it's good enough for Frances McDormand, it's good enough for me . . . just as i was about to select a tangerine i spotted a familiar looking woman reaching for a grapefruit . . . her chin gave her away . . . hard to believe but totally cool that she's being hyped as a middle-aged sex symbol in Laurel Canyon . . . u go gurrrrl . . . she caught me staring . . . but hey, who wouldn't look: an Oscar winner inspecting discount produce right along with the rest of us . . . as much as i liked her before, now she walks on water . . . she told The New Yorker that she hated it when people approached her when she was with her kid so i kept my distance but it seemed that every time i turned a corner for the next five minutes she was there adding something to her cart . . . no, Frances i'm not stalking u but u are one of the few famous people i'd actually like to acknowledge . . . so much for the celebrity encounter.
