So remember that time I visited the Veronica Mars writers' offices and the set with fellow members of MI.net? Have you stopped caring? I hope not, because I'm about to devote too much time to finally showing off my PICTURES from those three awesometastic days. I was going to attempt to write some sort of detailed narrative, but you know what? I ( Read more... )

I watch a lot of television shows. The problem with television shows is that they continue from season to season, but new shows arrive every year to tempt you. I lost two shows this last year, but, er, I think I already filled their slots with other continuing series. I am, however, checking out three new shows this upcoming season: Pushing Daisies ( Read more... )

I attempted to shop at Trader Joe's today. And I spent an hour with only milk and juice in my cart because that's all I understood.

What do you think? $3,000? $4,000? It's doable! Also, if you happen to have donated $150 the day I posted about the contest, you are currently in the lead. Since Rob doesn't ( Read more... )

You know, I barely paid attention to Gilmore Girls tonight, and I was sort of okay with that. Except that in a sad way, I was wondering why I ever watched the show at all.

Last year's FinaleCon was tophatter2 coming over to my house with store-bought snickerdoodles. This year's was a more extravagant affair.

In attendance were cadhla, porpentine, harriettheelf, holly96, and beeker121, all of crashing ivyisgilgamesh's sister's place. First, we had pizza and discussed theatre mishaps throughout the years. Then we watched the Glimore Girls finale and ate cookes brought by holly96 and made by harriettheelf, ( Read more... )
