I love Joss Whedon...

Okay, if you've never rented "Air Guitar Nation" go out and rent it or put it on your netflix queue now. It is fucking awesome because its so ridiculous and hilarious yet so serious and impressive at the same time. Its nuts that there is actually a world air guitar championship in Oulu, Finland of all strange places, to promote world peace ( Read more... )

In the onslaught of freakish weather, not much in our little veggie patch has grown thus far except for Kale and Rainbow Chard. This is the first year I have grown them and let me say - fresh kale and chard straight out of the garden and into a brief blanche of gently salted water is my new most favorite thing.

But this year, we seem to have skipped Spring and gone from the everlasting Winter to Summer. wtf? It was 90 degrees downtown today. NINETY = way uncool (no pun ( Read more... )

If you've never watched Coupling before, I recommend netflixing it. Its like witty sex in the city with equal props to both the male and female points of view on sex and relationships. And Jeff - totally the awesomest character. Everyone needs a friend like Jeff to keep them entertained. It seriously makes me LOL by myself... for real ( Read more... )
