Weekend Redux

My weekend slipped by once again. There were a few fun highlights in the mix of Aver’s (Fri, Sat and Sun shifts), web maintenance, and Banshee blogging. I hung out with Tim for a bit, went out with the hubby on Sunday and I managed to squeeze in some reading (Drawing of the Three, Stephen […]

Almost Interlude

I don’t have a musical interlude to post today. I almost embedded “Remembering Sunday” by All Time Low. That was before I got turned off by all of the live versions I found on YouTube. The audio on these is CRAP and singer comes off as a total asshat. Maybe he’s just young. Or lacking […]

Legend of Dolls Being Human

I never got around to watching Dollhouse last night because I was distracted by the pilot episode for Being Human, a BBC show about a co-habitating vampire, werewolf and ghost. The show isn’t groundbreaking but I am intrigued enough to look for the currently airing season. I’ve seen Being Human described as a cross between […]

Columbus

If you are following me on Twitter, you already know that Tim and I hit the road Saturday morning for Columbus, Ohio to see the musical Spring Awakening at Palace Theatre.

I realized it as I talked out the relationship between characters with Tim yesterday: Ramona has to hurt Ciarán. Badly. That will not be fun to write. Not sure of the when or how yet. Ro just doesn’t have the life experience or maturity that Ciarán has, especially in the romantic relationship department. I’m trying […]

Cash Cow

Catherine Hardwicke found another way to cash in on the movie franchise she lost. Hardwicke’s book, Twilight: Director’s Notebook, will be published just days before the DVD release of Twilight. The story and details are here. There is little to recommend Hardwicke’s work as a director on this film (I haven’t seen her other films), […]

In Which I Ramble and Bore All

Curious thing: I feel incredibly busy but have no recent accomplishments to speak of. OK, who among you is wasting my time? Sigh. The answer is me but this weekend wasn’t a complete washout- I worked more than usual this weekend (money is useful), got the Banshee film blog up and running (if only the […]
