Did you know the Neiman Marcus in SF has a cafe? My yoga instructor took her dog...
– The Professor.
You know how Bret Easton Ellis characters are always shopping at Gelson’s, or comparing other grocery stores to Gelson’s if they’re stuck at fake Bennington? That’s one of my favorites because Gelson’s is my favorite place to buy foodstuffs, partly because they’ve always got a really good selection of Diet Dr. Brown’s.
I was waiting by the deli counter...
This is a whispery post because, much like Freddy Krueger (I CAN’T WAIT UNTIL FRIDAY/NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET DAY), graduate school is trying to come back from whatever basement/furnace part of my mind it’s been locked away in. I got an email this morning from a school that shall remain nameless letting me know that even though I was rejected from their PhD program, they’d really...
‘You are a mean girl, and you are in high school, and while you are in high school, I am in Brooklyn.’
-Alex McCord as overheard on my living room television, where I just busted my fiftysomething father watching The Real Housewives of New York. I usually forget Alex exists, but I’m sure I’ll have occasion to use that line on some cruising-for-it mean person when the...
Last night I had a dream (nightmare?) in which The Situation was competing on Dancing With the Stars and then, during the course of filming, started a December-May love affair with Kate Gosselin.
When I woke up, drenched in cold night-terror sweat, I was horrified that my subconscious holds every US Weekly so tightly, and also confused because, let’s be honest—this is not an entirely...

Christina Hendricks: A Letter to Men →
molls:
I thought this list was fairly spot-on (although generally pointless), but why did Esquire have to intro it with this:
The sexy star of Mad Men — and Esquire’s all-new issue devoted to women — has a few things she’d like to get off her chest. Also, watermelon.
And then couple it with a photo of Christina sucking off a slice of fruit?
I feel like they’re attempting to humor someone...

I’m sorry that for the weekend this Tumblog has turned into a place for us to talk about KCRW DJs, but don’t yall kind of wish Anne Litt was your Mom? Feel like she’d be the best waker-upper on sleepy mornings, using her soothing Voice Instrument to be all ‘I have fresh-squeezed OJ and hot apple bran muffins waiting in the kitchen, and how about a little Ziggy Stardust to...
Chris Douridas is my least favorite KCRW DJ because his voice is creepy and I can’t not think of that story a few years back in which he was arrested for buying a teenage girl drinks at a bar in Santa Monica, and also right now he’s playing a disco remix of a Bon Iver song and I’m just confused.
This is a whispery post because it’s about the mean people across the street. Dadbro and I have lived in the same house since forever, and he’s pals with some neighbors who have a daughter my age. She and I went to middle and high school together and were sometimes friends because her mom would pick us both up, but mostly we were not friends because she was cool and had boyfriends and...

it is the best view in los angeles.
i figured i would need an excuse to show up to an open house for a home with an asking price of $2.7 million. i had a dope story about my family owning an empire of fast food restaurants (chick-fil-a), but as we walked in, i soon realized it wasn’t necessary. the realtors were legit. a mother and son team, friends of the homeowner, hosted the...
