Let’s talk "shop"

I’m a big fan of the comedic actors who one day turn all serious in order to earn credibility among peers and critics alike. It makes my heart sing when I see an actor well known for playing slapsticky, over-the-top goofy characters take on kinder, gentler, thought-provoking roles, and play them well. Prime examples of [...]

In an attempt to freshen things up around here, I did a little housecleaning on my “blogma” link list. I regularly check out many more blogs than the few I had previously listed on the sidebar, but had never gotten around to adding them to my oh-so-coveted list. This time ’round, I set up one [...]
There’s a bun in the oven Starbucks – the cinnamon kind
Posted on October 27, 2005 | Category: Uncategorized | 24 Comments
Here’s the thing. I go to Starbucks, A LOT. Not every day, but darn near. And quite conveniently, there is a Starbucks store on nearly every corner here in Seattle, the birthplace of molten java. I tried to cut back last week, but the green mermaid always lures me back. It’s a sickness, really. Awhile [...]

I have a smallish confession to make. I was sort of having lukewarm feelings toward the new David Gray album Life in Slow Motion. Like, I hadn’t had a lot of time to give it a really good and thorough listen. His previous two albums, A New Day at Midnight and White Ladder, are my [...]
Insert witty title here

So the posting ‘round here? Has been kind of lacking as of late. I have no excuse ‘cept that I’ve been real busy at work, feeling uninspired, and preparing for my mom’s visit this weekend (read: excessive cleaning of the house so as to not look like total slobs as we do normally). Now that [...]
We got game

When I called Roth from work on Friday to tell him that I scored free tickets to the Seattle Seahawks game on Sunday, he said, “Cool … that’s football, right?” Um yeah, we’re not really up on the whole professional sports thing. But, being the good sports (geddit? heh.) that we are, we trekked down [...]

Dear Cameron Crowe, Hi there. As you may or may not know, I am a huge fan of all of your movies, from Almost Famous to Jerry Maguire to Say Anything. I even liked Vanilla Sky more than the average person. When I hear that one of your movies is coming out, chances are, I [...]

I heart October

We just had one of those perfect October weekends. Nothing special going on, really. But it was nice to just hang around with no particular plans, enjoying each other’s company. On Friday after work, we opted to order in Chinese food, something we had yet to do here in Seattle. We chose a place closest [...]
