“Benny Wants to See the Movie Too.”
I’m off to see Austin Powers in Goldmember in a few hours. I really hope it doesn’t suck. Most likely it won’t, right? And the soundtrack will probably be good, right? I wanted to add a sidenote to the MTV entry from the other day. How is it possible that the Basement Jaxx didn’t get…

More LA Talk
what makes me laugh It occurs to me that I haven’t mentioned that I got to meet and hang out with stee’s sister recently. She is very much the coolest. I wish she didn’t live so far away. I think if The Coffee Bean ever wanted to start a cult I’d make a damn fine…

Paper Trail
out of control. I spent all day finishing up my recap for Gilmore Girls, which is up. If you hate waiting around to read about notification on the new Gilmores here, you can always sign up for the mailing list at MBTV. Then I did some phone calls, had lunch/dinner, had more phone calls, opened…

so scary, so cute
excuses and cars I’ll give all of the excuses first. They’re good ones. I’ve missed like, two weeks now of real entries. I know. I’m sorry.

Quit While You're Ahead
no more whining So what happens when you complain too much about having to use a dial-up? You lose phone service. For two days. The phones were knocked out all down the street and we got to listen to drilling and digging outside our door all weekend. We finally got phone service again long enough…

A Still Day
despite the puppies There are dalmatians outside my backyard. All along Sunset they’ve placed inflated puppies on top of the buildings. They loom over the street and threaten to snap off and hit a car at any time. Sad, floaty puppies staring at us, begging to be cut free, wishing they weren’t stuck on enormous…

Still Waiting
and i’m just trying to not smash my computer This morning I got up early and walked two miles. Yes, I walked with the sun and the breeze and was generally just a happy girl. But that only sounds healthy until I tell you that I walked two miles because I got lost on my…

It's Been Busy
welcome to the hotel california Perhaps I should explain life with Ray and that will explain why I haven’t written since Thursday. Actually, once I explain, then perhaps you’ll understand why the last entry was filled with typos. Wednesday we arrived with Chris. Chris stayed until Saturday morning. We all slept on the hardwood floor,…
