WTF Wednesday: Who Says A Girl Can’t Be President?
I was nine years old when Nixon resigned. I remember my parents plopping me down in front of the TV and telling me I was seeing history. Which I really didn’t understand; I was a kid and just wanted to … Continue reading

Not Appearing On The Small Screen: The Jetsons
I went to Olive Garden recently. I know, I know, I probably shouldn’t admit that but I did. I had an insurmountable breadstick craving. Don’t judge; people in glass chain restaurants shouldn’t throw stones. Being an astute observer, I noticed … Continue reading

I Have A Twitter Account And I’m Not Afraid To Use It
I think it has been well established, time and nauseating time again, that I am a Bravo TV Superfan. It’s a mantle I take seriously. Responsibilities I must uphold. And that’s why after watching just two episodes of The Real … Continue reading

I caught a segment on Spring Fashion on the Today show. I am horrified but must repeat their report that overalls are “back” in style. I don’t set these trends folks, I just report them. First of all, in my … Continue reading
The Day After The Two Days Of Blizzarding

Clothed And Comfortable
I think several facts about me have been well-established. I hate the outdoors. I like the chilly air that blows from a/c. I like all of my creature comforts. And I really and truly love reality TV; the more ridiculous … Continue reading
A Pound Sign By Any Other Name
Remember when Prince decided to change his name to some unpronounceable symbol? And then he was “The Artist Formerly Known as Prince” and now I guess he’s Prince again? Same thing with John Mellencamp. John Cougar. John Cougar Mellencamp. Not … Continue reading
Bethenny And Me: A Star Is Nearly Born
So this week I came dangerously close to finally realizing my destiny as a star. I am a huge Bethenny Frankel fan and I just happen to have a connection that got me tickets to a taping of her talk show, bethenny. … Continue reading
