I saw Gypsy at the Overture Center last night and really didn’t like it much. It was only partly the fault of the actors. It was the last performance of the weekend, the house was only half full, and the low energy was palpable. But a lot of it is just that I don’t really […]

was it you?
First, I usually remember my dreams when I wake up. And second, I tend to remember a lot of sex dreams. I’d like to argue that I actually have an average number of sex dreams, it’s just the fact that I remember them that makes me seem like a deviant. Anyway, last night I was […]

I just got back from seeing 3:10 to Yuma. This is honestly the best movie I’ve seen in a really long time and I’ll be surprised if it and the actors aren’t nominated for tons of awards. Not much else to report on the life front, sadly. I have the whole weekend off and evidently […]
Read more...the ten
Chelsea and I went to see the Ten on Wednesday at the snooty yuppy Hilldale theatre. The tickets are pretty expensive—you pay some kind of convenience fee that allows you to pick your seats. Which turned out to be entirely unnecessary—there were only 8 or so people in the entire theatre and we were all […]
Read more...you may have noticed that I have an America’s Next Top Model Fantasy Team
It’s true. I have an ANTM Fantasy Team. I’m also organizing a Fantasy Celebrity League on fafarazzi. I didn’t use to think of myself as such a gossipwhore, but in the past several months it’s been a rare day that I haven’t checked out the forums on Television Without Pity or scoured the pages of […]

Last night Chelsea and I went to Eno Vino, split a bottle of wine, and spent WAY too much money on food. To be fair, the waitress warned us about the teeny tiny portion sizes, but she made it seem like a good thing (“tapas,” “order a few and share,” etc.) and we weren’t entirely […]
Read more...i just saw wilco.
Totally worth standing around wearing the stupid blazer for 4+ hours. Nels Cline is one hell of a guitarist, and Jeff Tweedy really does make you feel every lyric. It was just an amazing, fantastic, wonderful show. Hurray for Wilco. I wanna see them live at least 10 more times.

for some reason, in order to concentrate, I have to have something to fidget with. what you’re seeing here is the result of several years of sitting in class and trying to pay attention.
Read more...sticky toffee pudding
This is the second food-related post in a row, and although I recognize and appreciate the need for more talk about feelings, and less talk about what I had for dinner, this is important. Michele from work alerted me to the existence of what is debatably the best thing in the entire world—HAAGEN DASZ STICKY […]
Read more...compliments to the chef
I didn’t realize I loved to cook until I got to college, and then, I had to share my space with the rest of the dorm, and I never really had the space or tools to spread out and make huge multi-pot monstrosities. Even after graduation my first apartment (the one I just moved out […]
