I am blogging right now trying hard to avoid a thing which cannot show up on this post. My pal M put forth this submission and I thought it so amusing I could not abstain from having a crack at it. Can you work out what it is I am doing? If you do, I [...]
Cleaning the toilet. Peeling a mandarin in one shot. Big huge round wine glasses. The burning sensation of a cold gulp of Coke down my throat. Taking lint out of the dryer without it breaking into little pieces. Proper grammar. Pooping stories. Not having to speak to anyone while I’m on the bus or 30 [...]
I’m addicted to Glee. I am a Gleek! I cry during every episode…sometimes with sadness but most times with joy. It’s like Walking on Sunshine for every episode. Critics have said that the cast is too stereotypical but stereotypes have to come from somewhere. You have your jocks, your cheerleaders, your geeks and freaks, your [...]
Sesame Street celebrated its 40th Anniversary yesterday. I’m so happy this show is still airing on PBS. It played such an important part of my childhood. The songs, the characters, and the lessons they taught me still remain with me today. Of course, it wasn’t all ladybugs and picnics, rubber duckies and baths, and obsessions [...]
A few weeks ago I watched The Invention of Lying. It’s a very silly movie about how no one can lie…right up until the hero of the movie discovers he can and turns the world upside down. Since no one can talk about something that isn’t, religions were never created. Because you have no scientific [...]
“You’re not adopted.” “I had to file for bankruptcy so I can’t help put you through university.” “What are you talking about? I never filed for bankruptcy.” “I didn’t cheat on you.” “Ok. I cheated on you with that guy, but not the other one.” “I’m just not ready for you to meet my parents.” [...]
Tina Fey is a genius. I’ve been catching up on 30 Rock episodes since I’ve missed a slew due to the fact that the show is on at the same time as Grey’s Anatomy. Don’t judge me…at least I don’t watch Reality TV…though for awhile I did have fun with Jon and Kate Plus 8… [...]
My comments to an After Ellen column about “blackfacing” for Halloween. Some people felt that it wasn’t politically correct, others felt that the topic was being taken too seriously, and some felt that it wasn’t an appropriate subject for the website since it didn’t have a lesbian or bisexual theme. I disagreed: I find it [...]
Besides being mildly obsessed with comic books, using broom as a verb, and my hair; I’m also addicted to femslash. When the characters and their stories are extremely well written in femslash, not only does that get me hot and bothered, but it also brings me a deep satisfaction that these same characters portrayed in [...]
November is the national blog posting month where Bloggers are motivated to post EVERY.SINGLE.DAY. Check out www.nablopomo.com HOLY CRAPOLA! that is a lot of pressure! I find more often than not that I only post things when I’ve felt I’ve learned something, or am profoundly grateful, or profoundly grateful for having learned something. However dear [...]
