Recent viewing: The Blah Blah Blah: New Moon – I know, I know. It’s terrible. I mean, look at the source material. And I shouldn’t do this to myself. But it’s got Michael Sheen in it. Sure, he was slummin’ it. Sure, he had weird red contacts, and he was only in about two scenes… […]

Ugh. So I finally sat down at the end of last week and read Breaking Dawn. I don’t even have the energy to truly review it. You know what it’s about; Bella Swan and her perfect love and her perfect transition to vampirehood and her perfectly perfect child with the most terrible name ever given […]

Book 9: Changes, by Jim Butcher
In case you haven’t noticed by now, I tend to get really invested in the books I read. Nowhere is this more apparent than with the Dresden Files. I got up the Tuesday it was released, got dressed and went out to buy it. I was finished reading it, and practically in tears, by the […]

Carol Burnett
The finale of my whirlwind weekend of fun last weekend was going to see Carol Burnett at the Lyric with my mother Saturday evening. Mom had told me about it several days beforehand, and at first I was reluctant. I did, after all, just leave my job and I’ve only got a finite amount of […]

By the time you read this, I will be on my way to NYC for the weekend. My mom and I are having a girl’s weekend. We’re going to see The Addams Family on Broadway (with the lovely AvB!). But last night I went with Michelle down to DC to see Ted Leo and the […]

philly friday
I actually made really good time going up to Philadelphia; only took me about two hours, despite a couple of slow downs on the way up. None of them lasted too long. I met Nicole at her house, dragged all my crap into her house and we got a snack. I love that there’s a […]
