Looking Forward

I want Spring to come quickly. I'm so tired of cold weather, or really the ups and downs I've seen on the thermometer lately. Last week highs were in the twenties, this week we've seen temperatures in the 50s and 70s.&nbs

"Her Morning Elegance"-- or, a really cool music video
Monday, 26 January 2009 7:57 A GMT-06
I love iTunes' Free downloads. Every week, they have a single and a music video available for free. Sometimes they're great, sometimes... not so much. I downloaded one of the free videos a week or two back, but never bothere

A few years ago I was getting my nails done at what was then the only spot in my neighborhood: One of the last of those gen-u-ine shops specializing in giving the ladies their once-a-week hairdo.The shop is gone and now my neighborhood boasts t

I've had season tickets to the Chicago Shakespeare Theater for years. Today, I'm heading off to see a production of Macbeth - or I suppose I should say, the Scottish Play.

Misheard Lyrics
Thursday, 22 January 2009 6:11 P GMT-06
I’ve been indecisive all week concerning what I would blog about today. The historical significance of the inauguration dominated everything and I haven’t watched or concentrated on much but that (as I teach social studies). I thought abo

The Inauguration
Wednesday, 21 January 2009 9:00 A GMT-06
Ever since I moved to DC for school, I've done and seen so many things that I would never have been able to do back home in New Jersey. Not the least of these was going to the inauguration of Barack Obama yesterday. I won't tell y
Feeling all Patriotic
Tuesday, 20 January 2009 4:48 P GMT-06
Like many Americans, I'm in the midst of a huge orgy of pre-inauguration and inauguration viewing. Excessive? Sure. But satisfying? Definitely. An English friend -- who was also glued to the inauguration coverage in the U.K. -- commen

A moment of celebration, please (other than the inauguration), Variety reported on Friday that Matt Weiner signed to do two more years of Mad Men, giving me a really excellent excuse to print this exclusive photo from the season two wrap party

I have the misfortune to live in a part of the United States that's in the midst of a horrible cold snap. After weeks of snow and ice storms, we've now settled in to a period of sub-zero temperatures. It's been so bad, that temperatures around 10 deg

Romantic Songs
Thursday, 15 January 2009 5:40 P GMT-06
I'm a sucker for all things romantic whether it be books, movies, or songs. When I decided to write something about romantic songs, I wanted to share one or two favorites. However, selecting just one or two is much easier said th
Golden Globe Fashions
Wednesday, 14 January 2009 7:31 A GMT-06
I admit it. I only watch the Golden Globes and the Oscars for the dresses. I didn't see any of the movies nominated for the major awards this year and I'm okay with that. Here lately, if it's not animated in some form or
The Diet of a College Student
Tuesday, 13 January 2009 7:46 A GMT-06
Well, I'm back at school. This means a number of things (classes, dorm living, work, etc.), but one of them is that I'm eating like a student again. That is to say, not particularly healthily. I've only been back on camp

Saturday, 10 January 2009 5:28 P GMT-06
I'm very much a health information junkie. For years I've read magazines and books filled with information about health. Thanks to the web, anytime I have a question about a health-related issue, I can look up the answers instantly. I've posted here

My Dream Job
Wednesday, 7 January 2009 6:01 P GMT-06
I'm so jealous of Guy Fieri. He has the most perfect job in my opinion. He hosts Food Network's Diners, Drives-in's, and Dives along with two other shows - Guy's Big Bite and Guy Off The Hook. No one perso
