You really need to be checking out the Facebook action.
When you do, could you tell me how it works?

My friend David did a very cool documentary about riding the rails. I wasn’t prepared to like it, but I loved it. He spent 13 years on it, probably defying the short-sighted ones out there, but he finished and now he’s at work on this one.
It’s about Cambodian refugees who came to the US when [...]

Looks like I might actually make it to one of Marya’s readings for her latest memoir about bipolar disorder. Sure hope I’m in a good mood.

Hero to the rural freelancer, Nesbitt’s Nursery hires me to pick apples, put stickers on herbs and annuals, move trees and work on their web site. They are a family-run business and they do not mess around. They are really, really good at what they do and devote themselves to find the best way to [...]

A: The same number of comedians whose work is “serious business.”

David really does the most beautiful work. It’s much more subtle than his gregarious, chatty personality would imply. He’s one of those guys who remembers quotes and anecdotes really well. And he has a great little snarky snicker. I wish one of his [...]

My friend David sent me this quote to start my day:
“And finally I twist my heart round again,
so that the bad is on the outside and the good is on the inside,

and could be,
if … there weren’t any other [...]

Did you see The Office when Phyllis got married? That’s my pal Maile Flanagan on the left! Her biggest scene was a reaction shot to her friend Steve Carrell’s line. This picture should be on next pro-same-sex rally sign.
*sigh*
Always a fan, never a star.

Instead of going to First Thursday for the Lookit Me Parade, we’re going to Betty’s tonight.
Who am I talking to? I only have two friends who read this and they live in Boston and Alabama. What is wrong with me?

When I was a young girl, contemplating my future, I don’t think I could ever have predicted that I would someday be sitting in an Applebee’s bathroom and suddenly notice that my friend V.’s ex-boyfriend would be scaring the shit out of me in an ad for cellular phone service. I mean, Applebee’s is [...]

Also, here’s a trick you can play on yourself: put a whole shitload of Marlee’s music on your iPod (no, that’s not the trick, but it’s a damn great idea, especially for long car trips and singing along) and put on a whole crapbag of Cat Stevens. Now press “shuffle.” See if you can guess [...]

A few years ago I searched all over for a Les Paul and Mary Ford CD. I was so happy when I found it. It was a double CD, I think. When Mike came over one day I had to give it to him because the music was making me too nervous. He drew a [...]
