I finally got to starting the last Harry Potter book this weekend. After managing to resist the hype and remain spoiler-free when it came out last summer, I borrowed Rob’s dad’s hardcover copy and it sat around until Friday when I decided to pick it up. I knew that it would suck me in onceContinue reading “Harry Potter and the Defective Moving Walkway”

Happy New Year and all that
So I was watching a Top Model Marathon yesterday while painting my kitchen. Watched more commercials than I probably did in the whole of 2007, because I was actually watching live TV. Lots of commercials for ab-toning workouts. Specifically. Like the advertising folks figure everyone in the world will be feeling fat and looking forContinue reading “Happy New Year and all that”
Keep trying, Johnny Depp
There’s nothing you can do to make yourself look unattractive to me on screen.
Isis am Legend
I can’t really write anything about “I am Legend” without ruining it for those who haven’t seen it. I tried to review it on Facebook yesterday, or maybe it was the day before, and for some reason, it wasn’t in Facebook’s database. This has since been remedied, but I’ve hardly had time to Facebook theContinue reading “Isis am Legend”
A bliss of another kind
The patient has stabilized. I went to Seattle last night to see Tori again, and order was restored to the universe. I was even able to remember a few highlights from Monday evening: The dude sitting next to me (not Rob) sobbing uncontrollably during “Winter,” which she performed beautifully. I mean, sure I cried whenContinue reading “A bliss of another kind”
So I let crazy take a spin
Hmm. Well. Where to begin. Took Rob to a Tori Amos concert across the border yesterday. Was sort of disappointed in my dinner at the Indian restaurant, sort of disappointed in the concert (I know, I know), and was downright vitriolic about having my car towed. (We were at a meter that turned into aContinue reading “So I let crazy take a spin”
Who am I?
When I look at my Facebook profile, my list of interests includes things like dogs, yoga, Buddhism, martial arts, travel and reading. I think about the people who knew me when I was in high school, and how these likely come as a surprise to them. They must think, “Boy has she changed. That’s notContinue reading “Who am I?”
The characters are fictional
Oh, how I loved The Darjeeling Limited. And not just because we’re planning to go to India in the spring.
Strangely compelling
A What Not to Wear Marathon. I turned it on as background noise while I applied the 2nd and 3rd coats of merlot paint, which I am so happy dried darker than the first coat yesterday, because that was positively raspberry. It’s still more plum than I envisioned, but I can live with it. Anyway,Continue reading “Strangely compelling”
Hee hee
Snow White costume represents!
