Ok, because (1) I’m still listening to last week’s playlist and (2) I feel way too yucky to be creative (insomnia+migraines=:( ) I will leave this week’s jukebox to my iPod to decide. I set the thing to random, and the first 10 songs that it plays (out of a possible 1,791) will be the [...]

Oh, no!

No! No!!!
Just when my already astronomical level of excitement over the upcoming “Sex and the City” movie peaked even higher when I saw a new trailer on TV yesterday, Fergie had to go muss it up with a song from the soundtrack that is just bad. Really, it’s hideous! Worse than “London Bridges.” Way worse. [...]
Housewives, ice cream, and catty snarkiness – must be Tuesday

UPDATE 2: Jezebel is the best. They have another highlight clip – featuring the disaster that is Ramona! Oh my – she may replace Willem DaFoe as the person who haunts my dreams and fills me with dread and dismay.
UPDATE: Jezebel has a wrap-up complete with a clip of highlights! I can watch this a [...]
Nervous laughter

So the Chris Rock show was amazing. It was longer and not quite as funny as the HBO specials (you can tell he practices and tests his stuff on tour, and then makes the HBO gigs more like “greatest hits” shows), but still, I laughed a lot. A LOT. And I’m not a big stand [...]
Chris Rock show tonight!

Yay! I’m off to go see Chris Rock! Live! I’m so excited! Really, he is one of the funniest people on the planet.
To get ready, I bring you one of my favorite clips from “Never Scared” when he is talking about Michael Jackson. “That’s how much we loved Michael. We loved Michael so much we [...]

OMG!!! So. Ex. Cite. Ed!
You already know that all it takes is a picture to make my day. You may or may not know that for me, living without the show “24” this season is like Amy Winehouse living without crack her beehive. It has been brutal!! The worst kind of withdrawal. I miss me [...]
Catching up

Ok, there is a lot I wanted to blog about lately, but a couple of things got in my way – namely illness (severe allergies and 2 cases of mild food poisoning) and work (the nerve!). So here are some highlights.
I get by with a little help from my friends. I had a little belated [...]
Jukebox: Spring has finally sprung!
Posted in Jukebox, music on April 18, 2008 | 4 Comments »
It’s finally warm out! We’ve had some warm days here and there, but it was always followed by a wool coat day (or week). Yesterday was gorgeous and today is supposed to be perfect – low humidity, sunny and 80 degrees. I’ve been battling some sort of stomach-flu-like thing (and so has my poor dog), [...]
The Schmaltz Trifecta! Yay!
Posted in Movies, Things That Make Elleen Happy, music on April 17, 2008 | 5 Comments »
I realize I may be blowing any chance of convincing anyone I have good taste in music with this post. But I don’t care, because I am pleased to announce that I will soon achieve my longtime goal I call my “Trifecta of Schmaltz”!!
Let me explain. I have a playlist on my iPod called “Schmaltz.” [...]
Bret loves his weave. And Ambre. Ok, not really
Posted in TV on April 15, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
So Bret picked Amber Ambre, the 31 38-year old “television host.”
I was glad he didn’t pick Daisy. I mean, seriously. What does she know about his “rock n’ roll life”? She was 7 when “Unskinny Bopp” came out! I mean come on! But I’m glad she stayed around until the end of the show. Trainwrecks [...]
