than watching Law and Order: SVU and seeing your own campus on the show. Lehman College is used as the backdrop for the show's fictional "Hudson University" and I saw my old cafeteria and one of the lecture halls. So awesome. It's almost like I'm part of the show's history! Ok, maybe not, but it's still cool. =D

Personally, for all those who are angry about having this young whippersnapper as David Tennant's replacement in Doctor Who, I'm going to reserve judgment until I actually see him. This could actually be an interesting development. I mean, think about it. You have a 26 year old guy play a 900 year old Time Lord. Every time he meets someone who ( Read more... )

So, I'm wondering how many people read about the Lillo Brancato Jr. case today? For those not aware of it (because it could happen), an actor best known for portraying Robert De Niro's son in the movie A Bronx Tale because of his uncanny resemblance to the older actor. He's also acted in several episodes of The Sopranos. A couple of years ago, he ( Read more... )

So, I wrote a review for this one band, Lido Beach, and their new album, Fake Hellos, Real Goodbyes. I told their lead, Scott, that I wrote the review on my myspace and that I'd share it with all my friends in the hopes they'd read it and want to buy it. Needless to say that he was ecstatic. So, I'm posting what I wrote here. It's my first review, ( Read more... )

Yesterday was the first snow of the season. As much as I loved watching through the window, I'm glad I was safe and toasty in my home. I can't say the same for my mom because, despite the weather, she decided that she'd barbecue our steak dinner outside instead of in the kitchen so that the smell doesn't penetrate the whole apartment. I begged and ( Read more... )

God, my hand is hurting like a bitch right now. Apparently, yesterday's mouse-clicking data entry extravaganza at work yesterday played hell on the muscles/tendons/whatever of my right hand. Am off to a suitable Duane Reade or CVS to get myself a hand brace ( Read more... )

Last night, went out with getyourselfapen to see Gigantic: A Tale of Two Johns, a documentary about the band They Might Be Giants. For those who don't know them (and shame on you if you don't!) they're this duo (both named John, duh) that are based in Brooklyn and have been playing gigs since the 80s. They'll never be huge, but they have a really solid fanbase ( Read more... )

I'm so upset right now. I had a tiff with one of my friends and now I feel like I want to hide away from the world. It is possible that I am overreacting. Is it overreacting to feel like crap when your friend tells you that something you're doing is damaging to their ego? It went something like this: we were texting and the conversation got around ( Read more... )
