merely acting?

I don’t *know* Maura Tierney.
But I wish I did.

I love her body of work….from Liar, Liar to ER and everything in between.
She’s an amazing actor and I was really looking forward to seeing her in NBC’s adaptation of Parenthood as a series this fall.

I’m a big fan of her career, and she has [...]

green potato chips

Hi.

I don’t like Facebook. There. I said it.
I’m very passive aggressive about Facebook, as well. Sure I’m *on* it, only because there was this MASS MIGRATION over there, and I’d still like to keep in touch with my out-of-state friends, and if that’s my only option for doing baaaaaaaaaaaaa. Sorry, what was I saying?

two steps back

Sometimes I really miss brushing my teeth.
I mean the actual act of brushing my teeth. What can I say? Sometimes it’s just way too early, and I’m still more than half-asleep, and I’m not fully prepared for the ultrasonic vibratory assault that is my current toothbrush. I’m reasonably certain it “attacks plaque” by both physical [...]

High School Moosical

Ok. I will come right out and type it: I love Twitter. I balked and hemmed and hawed and refused and dug my heels in as long as I possibly could, and then I finally caved.

unzipped

Calm down. That’s not what I mean.
In fact the most alluring thing about this story is its setting: Hawaii. Hanauma Bay in Oahu to be precise. I waited a lot of years to go to Hawaii and I came back saying what everyone else I know who has been there (including my entire immediate family, [...]
