When somebody is bragging to you about how cute or funny or smart their kid is, it’s never a good idea to say, “Oh, my cat does that too.” You’d think it would be a good way to establish some common ground, but trust me, it’s not.

August 16th, 2010Why I’m out of shape
August 7th, 2010Me: It’s hard for me to respect people who go running shirtless. Kurt: I don’t… I don’t respect people who run. Me: Yeah, only children and thieves run. Kurt: I guess if you were being chased by a bear it’s ok. And maybe– maybe when you’re playing with your dog.
Phobia
August 6th, 2010Some people are afraid of spiders. Some are afraid of heights. Some are afraid of clowns, which seems perfectly reasonable to me, because let’s face it: clowns are scary. I’m scared of balloons. (Via Hautstyle. Some images NSFW.) This situation would give me a panic attack. Not even playing. Whenever I’m around balloons, all I [...]

Out on Bale
June 17th, 2010I’ve seriously watched this video like, seventeen times, and have come to several realizations: 1. Newsies was freaking amazing and I need to see it again. 2. Christian Bale is gorgeous. 3. Lady Gaga is awesome, but would be awesomer (not a word) if she did a duet with Christian Bale. 4. Christian Bale should [...]
Hacked the hacker
June 17th, 2010So my email was hacked on Monday and oh boy, was that a fun mess to try and clean up. (I’m being facetious. There was nothing fun about it.) Anyway, the hacker sent everybody in my contact list an email saying that I’d been mugged in a park in Wales, and that my flight left [...]
Homegirl got hacked
June 14th, 2010My gmail account got hacked and I can’t even figure out how to log on. So that’s awesome… My apologies to anybody who got spammy email from me. Sorry. = (
