Would you be mine?

14 Mar

I have reason to believe the ghost of Mr. Rogers visited my car not long ago.

Just another day at my dee-luxe apartment in the sky.

I dream of QVC

6 Nov

I watch (too much) QVC – it’s our background channel when nothing else is on. One of the jewelry lines they feature regularly is the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis jewelry collection. It’s a bunch of costume jewelry make to look like stuff Jackie O had back when she was relevant. There’s an expert on the show who displays photos of Jackie with the original jewelry and tells these great stories that only serve to paint her as a vain & shallow rich man’s wife who collected jewelry because she could.

Hire, me, QVC!


In my most recent dream, I’m the show host’s lackey who mans up the QVC Facebook page and Twitter feed during the show. They cut to me from time to time and I do my “look at what people are saying about this gorgeous piece on Facebook!” spiel.

Anyway, the show host (Mary Beth Roe, if you know QVC) remarks that they have Jackie’s original earrings in the building today that the replicas were based from. She turns to me and says, “isn’t that amazing?”

The camera cuts to me and I reply, “It is, Mary Beth. I wanted to wear them on the show today because it’d probably the first time those earrings would have seen an honest day’s work.”

I was summarily fired, but as I was escorted from the soundstage I hollered out “Lisa Robertson (another host) would have LOVED that joke!”

DTWS: Evan and Anna’s Argentine Tango

4 May

My favorite Dancing with the Stars dance EVER is Drew and Cheryl’s “Thriller” Paso Doble. I think Evan Lysacek and Anna Trebunskaya’s Argentine Tango from last night beats them all.

Last night Evan FINALLY stopped looking like a dork. And Anna’s always been a favorite of mine. :)

The good stuff starts at 1:46.

(fans self)

I’m so enjoying this season. Kate Gosselin excepted, everyone is enjoying their time on the show and the “this is so haaaard…I’m so buussssyyyy” whining is practically non-existent.

Each of the remaining “stars” has their challenges but they’re really not using them as an excuse. This season is a breath of fresh air!

Go team #evanna !!
