Long-ass life update

Brian has completely left babyhood and has entered toddlerville. He’s the big T-W-O now! He has tantrums, gets into all sorts of trouble, and tries to do please-let-me-have-my-way, puppy dog eyes. When it doesn’t work, he laughs sheepishly. So adorable. He watches Blues Clues, loves bubbles and drawing. He loves his blankets, but isn’t really […]

Hey, is anybody still out there in internet-land?\ For those who care, the Supernatural pilot is on tonight (Thursday) on the WB at 9pm EST. Check it out! Seriously, the music, the acting, the car, the emo-ness, the pretty boys, the lightness of it, oh, and THE MUSIC! What’s not to love?\ Did anybody out […]

Edinburgh Day One

It’s cold and rainy in Edinburgh and the hotel wi-fi sucks. I think I’m almost done with my presentations for this week and I’ve already registered for the conference and hit a grocery store (disappointingly, they didn’t have Smarties, Kinder Eggs or orange Lilt). I watched Top Gear on real TV and caught the UK […]

What about a Pop Tart in the dryer?

From The Salon article about The OC finale: every scene with [Mischa Barton] in it had a way of reminding you that you had a Pop Tart in the toaster or laundry in the dryer.\ I have absolutely no idea what this means, but I kind of love it anyway. Mischa has been soooo bad […]

TV is cooler than real life

Studio 60 Preview looks awesome! Slide over, Grey’s Anatomy. You’ve got some competition headin’ your way. Too bad there are four decent things on Thursdays at 9pm. Can’t The Powers That Be spread out the good shows a little? Sheesh.\ The CW video montage looks like a big pile of teen cheese. (And can you […]

Yippee-Skippy, Howdee da Doooo!

Veronica Mars was renewed for season 3! Let’s do the dance of happy, happy, joy, joy:\ It’s just a jump to the left\ And then a step to the right\ With your hands on your hips\ You bring your knees in tight\ But it’s the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane,\ Let’s do the […]

Bloggin’

Now that the TV-season is over, whatever will we chat about? And no, don’t say baseball.\ In super happy news, Kevin came home at a decent time last night. Whooo. It’s like crazy-time is over! YAY!\ In other, almost desperate news, there is only one Diet Dr Pepper in the house! Eeeep.

Weekend Update

Max had another soccer game on Saturday. He has so much fun there, I have to recommend it to all parents of young children. It is so much more interactive and physically demanding than tee-ball or little league. (It’s practically non-stop running for an hour, instead of standing around waiting to bat or for someone […]

TV rec

The Supernatural finale last night was so awesome! It had everything a great finale should: angsty confrontations, emotional realizations, demon-y exposition. Dean’s raw rage was so palpable it was scary. “I LIED!” Eeeep. That freaked me out, and he is the good guy.\ The TVGuide.com reviewer agrees with me. YAY! For some reason, I get […]
