Jen and I have talked about this one a couple times, and man, I wish TiVo would just do it. TiVo should have playlists. For example, say you have a two year old who loves Blue’s Clues and you’re exhausted because said toddler woke up too early. Wouldn’t it be great to hit the Keep […]

Yesterday afternoon was all REM
Yesterday afternoon was all REM and for no other reason than I listened to my Randy Newman stuff and REM was next in iTunes’ playlist. I didn’t have the heart to change to something else. There’s something comforting about REM (the old stuff). It’s safe and sweet and innocent and reminds me of junior high […]
Connie Chung is joining CNN
Connie Chung is joining CNN, and will host an hour-long show at 8pm in the Spring. The show hasn’t been named yet. In an attempt to be as helpful as possible to the newest member of the AOL-Time Warner family, I’ve come up with a list of possible titles for her show: On The Bottom […]
Weekend Notes In no particular
Weekend Notes In no particular order: Max has decided that sleeping through the night is not the best idea in the world. He’s taken to waking up at random intervals during the night and/or insanely early and not letting us hear the end of it until one of us goes and gets him. I am […]
I woke up this morning
I woke up this morning to my alarm. I got up, took a shower, applied deodorant, brushed my teeth and hair, got dressed, went downstairs, put on my shoes, took my medicine, went out the door, got in the car and turned it on. As the radio came on, I heard the tail end of […]
This is the best news
This is the best news I’ve gotten in a loooo-ooong time. Wallace and Gromit are coming back in twelve one-minute shorts, and the best part is, they’ll all be online for free later this year.
TiVo Weekend Movie Review: Thanks
TiVo Weekend Movie Review: Thanks to TiVo, I watched a couple weird movies this weekend. The first, Jesus’ Son stars Billy Crudup as a Heroin junkie and all-around useless fellow who finds his calling in a “home”. It’s odd, and I should have paid more attention. The movie’s uneven, and probably not really worth watching […]
I’ve been listening to Feelings
I’ve been listening to Feelings almost non-stop for the past 36 hours (when not sleeping or doing something else). It’s an amazing album. The more I listen to it, the better it gets. I was a huge Talking Heads fan, but David Byrne always seemed to be fighting his voice on those albums. He was […]
Someone at work loaned me
Someone at work loaned me Prodigy’s old Fat of the Land album. (sorry, I’m doing my best Larry King impression here) For my money, there isn’t a song that makes me want to move my ass more than Breathe. The cockney accent, that beat, the riff… Oh yes, this is my large ass movin’.
Sex and The City is
Sex and The City is back!! I know this is late, but thanks to TiVo, we didn’t watch it until last night. I forgot how much I missed the show. It’s the most perfect sitcom. It’s dirty and touching and funny all at the same time. It warms my little heart.
