I just had the most amazing evening. For my ex's birthday, I dragged him down to City Winery to see Mike Doughty and Andrew "Scrap" Livingston perform their award-winning Question Jar show, promoting the new Stellar Motel CD.

Stopped by the fresh store near my doctor's office this morning to pick up my phenomenal soy face cleanser. Sure, it's $38, but it lasts me at least a year and a half, smells like cucumber and feels like silk, and I adore it. Plus it's good enough to remove most eye-makeup and if you put it on clean skin & don't rinse it off it acts as a ( Read more... )

Re: Supernatural -- I am *trying* not to watch the latest SPN until... say, next Wednesday, at least. We'll see how that goes, but for now, please don't assume that I've seen it!
