I feel as though every post I write is grounded in silly cultural stuff.  Some might even say terrible, rancid, crap unworthy of watching, listening to, and thinking about. 
Yet, still, my mind is there.
So, here’s the latest swirling around my head:
Friday Night Lights:  Matt Saracen is the cutest guy ever…you must watch this show just [...]

Okay, I love this show.
But there are aspects of it that are exceedingly disappointing this season.
Anything with Izzy is tedious and makes me want to send her back down a catwalk instead of into surgery.  I couldn’t stomach the story line last year that her falling in love with a dying patient.  I didn’t buy [...]

This YouTube video is fantastic.  It sets a montage from The Office–emphasis on Michael and Dwight–to Justin Timberlake’s Sexy Back.  Even if you don’t love the office in full, you’ll love this video…

Friday Night LIghts is on.  I love this show.  I’m not even sure exactly why, but I adore it.
Now, let’s talk old Katie Couric.  For the first time since she started the nightly news I watched it.  And something is wrong with her eyes tonight.  Eye surgery, maybe?  One of the things that always made [...]

My mother took Jake and my nephew to see Stomp so I’m killing time ’til it’s over, sitting in a Starbucks that looks out on 6th Street, across from Heinz Hall.  Love this seat.  Love the cultural district. 
 And I do love Oakmont.  But, I think we def. need to move back to the city after the [...]

cause now I caught the puke disease my son has…or it’s simply the reading of that AOL article…
I have to comment on Anna Nicole Smith.  MOstly because I feel so bad for her daughter  and who knows what the hell will happen to her.  And that lawyer of Anna Nicole’s–oh, that’s why I’m so sick–it’s [...]

I could not leave my venomous, judging of the judgemental asshole post at the top…it just didn’t feel very nice.
 So, I’m going to wow you with nothing much:
On the lighter side, it was 7 degrees when I got in the car this morning as opposed to -2.  Yeah, there’s good news.
Oh and the other thing [...]

Excerpts below are from an article from the AOL homepage–link at the end. 
TED HAGGARD

DENVER (Feb. 6) – One of four ministers who oversaw three weeks of intensive counseling for the Rev. Ted Haggard said the disgraced minister emerged convinced that he is “completely heterosexual.”

  

‘Completely Heterosexual’ WTF???

REALLY?  YOU FREAKING LIAR.  NO ONE BUYS METH ON THEIR [...]

I adore that show–all versions of it.
But they’ve hit a low point tonight with Criminal Intent.
They took a page from the Murder She Wrote script book.
Which, by the way, I love that show, too so saying L & O sunk to a new low isn’t accurate, but it was all that came to me.  Yes, [...]

Hope all is well with everyone.
I’m working on the first draft of a novel which I’ll have done in five weeks or so.
I’m also reading love letters. Yes, that’s right.  My great great grandmother kept all the love letters she wrote to her boyfriend (soon to be husband) in 1882.  He lived in Des Moines, Iowa [...]
