r.i.p. good acting

Caryn sent me the following article: Are Daytime Soaps Doomed? I haven’t watched soaps in years and years (actually, I think my addiction was cured the summer everything got preempted by the O.J. trial, which should give you an idea of how long ago it was) but for a brief time, I was incredibly addicted … Continue reading »

random question of the day

As you are probably aware, today is Friday. I’m going to my cousin’s wedding tomorrow, and while I’m certain it will be entertaining in ways I will perhaps never be able to express, I also know that going to a family wedding doesn’t even score on the Ways-I-Want-To-Spend-My-Weekend-O-Meter. So, as a means of taking my … Continue reading »

rather pointless, really

I keep thinking about what I’m going to write today and not coming up with any answers. Should I mention that earlier I was in a Mexican restaurant and heard the final moments of the Color Me Badd song “I Wanna Sex You Up” and remembered back to the time I was 12 and my … Continue reading »

gah! interview!

Update I’m putting the update on the top of the post because I can. SO THERE. Usually part of my interview preparation process involves running around the house in my underwear with a towel on my head and yelling “I HAVE TO BE THERE IN THIRTY MINUTES I CAN’T DO THIS WHY IS MY HAIR … Continue reading »

i have a question.

There are lots of things in the world that I am confidently not dumb about, but I believe it’s pretty safe to say that I am rather dumb about this subject. So. If anyone can offer any insight or suggestions, I would be grateful. Okay, here goes. I’m fucking sick of my blog. And I … Continue reading »

things i learned from this month’s cosmo

Writing about Cosmo in list form seemed to work really well (for me at least), so I’m going to do it that way again! Woot! 1. I thought by now I’d gotten to a point where nothing I read in this magazine could surprise me anymore and then I read “Create Cleavage: Smudge dark eye … Continue reading »

i did say that at some point i would write a post that was just about ulysses

Ulysses reminds me of this time in a psychology class when the professor read writings by schizophrenics and writings by famous authors and we were supposed to guess who wrote what. By and large, the crazy shit was by the famous authors. I have no argument with stream-of-consciousness writing and I don’t even mind difficult … Continue reading »

some questions, answered

1. do you have any new shoes you could model for us in a photograph or, better yet, a video, with or without a stunt dog cameo? i’m sure such an eyeful would be appreciated throughout your entire base of minions. With apologies to my minions (I have minions?), I regret to inform you that … Continue reading »

well, it’s a post.

I’m still reading Ulysses but I’m somehow behind schedule. I may have to lock myself in a room with it for awhile and refuse to let myself come out until I’ve read something like 200 pages. Will this cause madness? Only one way to find out! Muahaha…ha…ha…ahem. Um, other than that, I got some new … Continue reading »

a veritable smorgasbord of awesome

For real. Ulysses Update #10 I made a short video about my experience of reading this book. I’m sure it’s all 100% accurate and none of it was dramatized for video-making purposes. At all. Anyway, you may view it over on LitKicks, if you so choose, and see some wonderful acting by my dog. I … Continue reading »
