Apologies to anyone who's not looking at this blog...
I know the theme is buggy and messy right now — according to the developer, there was a bug in the most recent update, and he has submitted a fix that “should be approved and distributed very soon.” Very soon, unfortunately, does not mean less than two days — he said that on Wednesday.
Once again, Tumblr proves itself to be a smooth and reliable engine for quality...

Overheard Comments About "Skyrim" (Part 1)
Have you heard of this game called Skyrim? If you haven’t, there’s this game called Skyrim. It’s kind of a big deal. You can do all sorts of ridiculous stuff, for millions and millions of hours, and it’s been very popular amongst my co-workers, to the point where morning discussions that would normally be devoted to things like “How about that new episode of Breaking...

OH HEY GUYS.
A very dull experiment.
Because I am a lady, I travel about town with a purse filled with stuff — gadgets, cords, toiletries, pens. For its relatively compact size, it’s pretty heavy, and when I walk with it it’s exposed to the elements. Thus this morning, rainy as it was, I decided to test my purse’s necessity for daily life and head to work without it — nothing in my rain jacket’s...

I hope this doesn’t sound stuck-up or something, but please don’t send me sexually explicit emails. I’m not interested in that and it makes me depressed that people think because a woman writes about sex online that makes her totally open to receiving long emails about your sexual fantasies involving her.

Hi all 26 friends who follow me on the Tumblr,
A month or so ago, I began a process to switch from synthetic chemical-based personal care products & cosmetics to as natural a regimen as I can muster without sacrificing prettiness.
A week ago, I quietly started to blog my findings.
I would appreciate it if you would take a look and pass along to any friends you think might be...

Why Wes Anderson movies aren't good anymore
Short version: It has nothing to do with hipsters. It has everything to do with Owen Wilson.
Long version: If you listen to the commentary track on the Criterion Collection edition of Rushmore (nerd), there is one exchange that is FASCINATING as a portrait of a writing partnership. It concerns the scene where Rosemary (Olivia Williams) says to Max (Jason Schwartzman):
Rosemary Cross: Do you...

ecantwell replied to your post: Things I have written in emails this morning don’t go for the scandinavian sodomy. that movie was a piece of shit. don’t listen to anyone who says differently.
Duly noted! As Megan said, it sounds like we are heading towards adorable silent puppies territory.
Things I have written in emails this morning
“That is an embarrassing Ibsen brainfart! My apologies.”
“Here is an actual link that contains the article. I apologize now for sending you to a David Tennant fansite.”
“Tonight, I’d ideally like to see either adorable silent puppies or Michael Fassbinder’s penis, but I also wouldn’t mind Scandinavian sodomy. What do you guys think?”

Heartbreaking, but it takes merely a second to send a birthday wish.
I have postcard stamps in my purse, let’s do this.
I just sent an e-card! Haven’t done that in a while. A very happy birthday to Cole.
