I just wanted to make a quick announcement here and let you know that I’m giving away a copy of the Danny Roane: First Time Director DVD over at my Reviews and More blog. This is a comedy starring Andy Dick, and features a bunch of cameos from Hollywood A-listers, so it’s at least worth [...]

I had a bout of insomnia last night, so I was up from about 1:30am until it was time to wake my husband for work. There wasn’t much going on online, so I turned on the TV for awhile and ended up watching infomercials. I actually like those because I’ve discovered lots of cool little [...]

Do you get on a roll when you read, so that one book leads to the next, which leads to the next, and so on and so on? I don’t so much mean something like reading a series from beginning to end, but, say, a string of books that all take place in Paris. Or [...]

Earlier this year, my husband and I made a commitment to improve our home both inside and out. Towards that end, we hired professional landscapers to redo our backyard, brought a painting crew in to touch up the gutters and trim, and had a bit of work done in our kitchen. What I’d really like [...]

“Numb” Video

I don’t have very many favorite bands, and there aren’t many artists that I would actually pay money to see in concert, but Linkin Park is definitely one of them. I missed out on seeing these guys when the Projekt Revolution tour came through Tinley Park back in September, but if they do another U.S. [...]
