My Good Twin
Yesterday I went to see The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Pants with my long-lost good twin (I’m clearly the evil one, wouldn’t you agree?) We kept poking each other and whispering “Ya-Ya!” which is only funny if you’ve seen Divine … Continue reading

Alas, Babylon
The other day, Stick lent me Alas, Babylon by Pat Frank. I’m not sure whether Stick remembered my penchant for post-apocalyptic novels, or if he just wanted me to stop kibbutzing his WarCraft game. Alas, Babylon is yet another post-apocalyptic … Continue reading

Casablanca Spoiler
Last night, Stick and I rented Casablanca, because he’s never seen it. Yeah, you heard that right, I’m the weird hippie who doesn’t get pop culture, but he worked in a video store and he’s never seen Casablanca. Anyway, stop … Continue reading

The Amherst Horror
Last night, I talked Kristine into going to see The Amityville Horror with me. I’ve seen the original, and I was so scared that afterwards I made my then-boyfriend walk me to the bathroom and stand outside the door in … Continue reading

A Visit to the Blinking Doctor
Today I went to the optometrist. I’ve done this about once a year, since before I knew that “eye doctor” was two words. (which was YEARS before I realized the same is true about “Tappan Zee”) I’ve had glasses since … Continue reading

Who’s On First For Classicists
“Do you want to go to Elektra with me?” I asked Stick, “It’s at HCC,” “Sure,” Stick said. “What’s the lecture about?” “You took Greek drama, you know what it’s about!” “No, I never heard about a lecture at HCC!” … Continue reading
