Dear Little iPhone, How I Love You

November 20th, 2008 · 2 Comments · Endless Blathering, Movies/TV, Rants/Raves, Travel

Oh, it is pretty.  It is so pretty.  After a couple of days trying to puzzle out the settings on that Windows Mobile-based phone (and was a perfectly good phone, with great reviews), it is like having a phone that reads your mind.  I marvel at its exact perfection! I have it in a soft [...]

Like, Everything Going On In My Life Right Now

September 19th, 2008 · 1 Comment · Endless Blathering, Movies/TV, Photography

And, here it is, Friday.  It seems like I spend the whole week looking forward to Friday, but then when it gets here, I look back wistfully on a week of my life that has passed.  That’s kind of odd, I have to say. What’s up for me this weekend?  Well, more photo work.  I [...]

FREE!!!!!…ish

August 18th, 2008 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Movies/TV, Photography

For the first time since April or May, I don’t owe anyone any photos and I don’t have anything coming up in the next few weeks.  I am FREE!!! Well, not entirely true.  I owe family photos from the Fourth of July that I will probably do tonight.  And I have plenty of my own [...]

Mostly About the Olympics

August 15th, 2008 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Movies/TV

A few things are bothering me about the Olympics this year. The schedule bothers me, for instance.  I am not going to stay up all night to watch the results, which means that I inevitably find out what happened by seeing it in the headlines the next day, which means there’s no suspense when I [...]

Sporty Road Trips and Movie-Watching = Summer

August 7th, 2008 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Movies/TV

I am not a sporty person, and I generally avoid sports on television, but I am always fascinated by the Olympics, especially the summer Olympics.  TiVo makes it so easy to watch too- I can just fast-forward through all the dramatic human-interest stuff and get right to the competition.  They also switch around between events sometimes, and [...]

Stiff Necks and Productivity

July 28th, 2008 · 2 Comments · Endless Blathering, Movies/TV

I have to get off caffeine again.  I’m so exhausted. Well, I had a productive and tiring weekend, and then last night I slept on my neck wrong somehow, and it’s stiff today.  Sometimes you get a stiff neck and it just hurts to turn from one side to another, right?  This one hurts just [...]

Stuffs on the TeeVee

July 17th, 2008 · No Comments · Movies/TV

I missed out on watching Season 1 of The Paper on MTV this spring when it ran, and I didn’t try to catch up during the run because I thought they’d do a big day-long marathon of it at some point, but they never did.  Too busy with America’s Next Top Model and The Goddamn Hills, I [...]

TeeVee

July 11th, 2008 · No Comments · Movies/TV

And it’s STILL the same damn week!  Can you believe it?  It just feels like the past two weeks have been six or eight months… on NEPTUNE.  As in, it’s been a long damn couple of weeks.  I mean, seriously. Tracy and I have been watching a lot of reality television lately.  (Hey, she’s recovering from [...]

Hello, and Today I am Tired.

May 29th, 2008 · 1 Comment · Endless Blathering, Movies/TV, Photography

Tonight is the season finale of Lost.  Yes, I watch Lost.  It’s a bit of a joke in our household because we started watching the show together, then stopped watching it, then picked it back up again halfway through the first season, and then Tracy refused to watch it anymore about halfway through Season 2.  [...]
