Ok, who watched 90210 last night? Come on, admit it. You did.
I did. I was stangely drawn into before I left to go have dinner at Best Friend’s. So much so that I had to watch it when I got home, despite my drooping eyelids and pounding head.
My verdict: Not as good as the original, [...]

Last week as Best Friend, her boyfriend and I headed home from celebrating Best Friend’s last day of work (she is off to grad school for three years), her sister sent her a text. Best Friend’s sister is a junior in college. The text congratulated her and ended with a command to “go get krunked.” [...]

Sometimes, you just stumble on a video that brings it all back. A great scene from a great movie; it made me smile on a tough morning.

I love me some Entertainment Weekly. I mean, it’s almost a sickness. Written words about pop culture. Two of my favorite things combined. EW recently celebrated its 1000th issue by celebrating the “new classics” naming the best movies, TV shows, music and books for the past 25 years. Since I’m a bit overdue for a post [...]

So far this afternoon, I’ve found my feet bleeding from the shoes I was wearing, failed to do basic math, ditzed out on how to use my iPod Shuffle, and spilled an entire cup of water all over myself, my desk and my chair. Is this retribution for not giving my seat on the [...]

Nilsa is moving. She has quite an awesome loft in the South Loop, if anyone is looking. I saw the pictures of her listing and asked her “Did you have to stage it?”
I am moving. I’m amassing furniture for my new place and decided that I would get a brown, leather storage [...]

The Office is back tonight. Hurrah! Thank you Entertainment Weekly for reminding me of this yesterday. And as a sidenote, congrats on finally getting your website to move faster than molasses.
So, here’s what EW and my handy-dandy info button on the digital cable tell me…followed by my prediction. Michael and Jan have a dinner party…hilarity [...]

So, I have noticed a few blogs out there with some really cool play lists that just start playing when you get to their blog and you get a nice little soundtrack to accompany your reading pleasure.
So I figured a glimpse into my musical preferences might provide another glimpse into the random-and sometimes scary-place that [...]
