Isn't she lovely?

Behold my new idol.

Diane Keaton is a more appealing screen presence now than when she was younger. She's more mature, less mannered, and now her charm is warm and wise whereas once it signaled neurotic and needy.

Right now I'm watching Something's Got to Give. Thursday was The Family Stone. I like this Keaton so much more than I liked her original incarnation.

I also find it encouraging that she's still believable as an object of desire.

Especially since I went shopping today and the new slacks I purchased were a size ... oh, I can't even bear to whisper it to this blog.

So now Diane is my new role model. I've got the skin thing under control. The new haircolor is working well. I know that my attitude is either more contemporary or perhaps more casual than people expect of a woman my age. Now I simply have to buckle down and work on nutrition and exercise.

Otherwise I'll just have to cede all the Keanu Reeves of the world to Diane.
