Suddenly it’s Saturday afternoon and it’s cold outside and it looks like it might rain any second. Not a pleasant spring shower-it is the end of April, afterall-but the cold, drizzling rain you’d expect at the end of November. The kind of rain that makes you want to curl up underneath the comforter and just go to sleep because even an accidental thought about what’s going...

Boucher Kia of Milwaukee:
You gave me an excellent deal my new Jeep and I appreciate that; I really do. Your continued follow up after my purchase was appreciated as well. Unfortunately, I’m inclined to believe that’s where your commitment to customer service ends.  I took my car into a Jeep Dealership for a recent recall. While I was there, I asked the service department to see if they could figure out what...

Cleaning
I hate cleaning. I hate it. It’s a problem because I like my flat to be clean. I hate looking at clutter. I hate clutter existing. It’s why I impulsively go on huge “donate everything to Goodwill” sprees. I try vacuuming every day. You know, dog, cat, allergies. I have a little vacuum that does a pretty good job keeping the hair under control during the week. It’s...

Tom Hardy talks about his role as Bane in THE DARK... →
Can. Not. Wait. dramatistwriter: Holy crap. After reading this article, I thought The Joker was pretty badass. The character of Bane will be a “physical threat,” and a very “meticulous and calculated” villain. Can’t wait to see Tom Hardy in action! (Heath Ledger, you are still greatly missed!)

Trying to get into “The Wire”. It’s not working so you turn to twitter and oh fuck it’s Thursday. #SheHeChat. So then you’re sitting on the couch with your neighbors drinking margaritas and the kid keeps running in from the bedroom and the cat still thinks you’re romantically involved and the fetus jokes just keep on coming and you think you might keep spiraling...

I dreamt I was at a friend’s house, I think. Somehow I determined I needed a second dog so I flew to Nevada for a one day trip to get one. I only bought a one-way ticket and I was going to get the return ticket once I arrived. The plane had a balcony. I called my brother to tell him to pick me up when I arrived at 5pm. I thought to myself I should have grabbed a book, but I didn’t have...

Oh Voters
“I voted for _____ because he’s not Obama.” “Is that the only reason you voted for him?” “Pretty much.” “So what’s the most important issue for you this campaign season?” “Beating Obama” “What don’t you like about Obama?” “He’s ruining the country.” “Care to expand on that?”...
