closed for the season

It all started with a someecard my husband jokingly set me. Not only did it serve to remind me that Lent follows Mardi Gras (something I seem to forget year to year), but it got me thinking: what would life be like if I gave up the internet?
Before I could get very far in [...]

Oscars 2008 – Movie Bingeing Snapshots

kelly | February 22, 2009

For the past few years, one of the local movie chains in our area hosts an “Oscar Showcase” the day before the Oscars. All 5 Best Picture nominated films are shown back to back starting at 10:30 in the morning until they’re over. I tried my best in the 30 minute breaks between shows [...]

This time, I’m doing Top Chef Season 5 Episode 13 – the [...]

“Live Blogging” Grey’s Anatomy Episode 5.15

kelly | February 16, 2009

Also, while I’m recording my thoughts as I have them (and labeling them with the minutes into the show), I’m not re-publishing this after every thought. Instead, I’m just going to post [...]
