Blankie and Sofa Day

I'm under the weather again, but this time, it's entirely my fault ;)

Perfect opportunity to think about the things that bring me comfort. Gene Kelly is one of them.

Here is just one of my favorite Gene Kelly scenes: "You Were Meant For Me". His beautiful singing, commanding and confident presence, and his leadership on stage are unparalleled. I find myself less moved as I get older, but this perfection makes me swoon.




Ah Gene, the Jones Ideal. There will never be another. I initially posted this earlier but I didn't know...today is his birthday! So happy birthday, my sweet.
