“I should have heeded her advice…but he seemed so nice”

Ever have one of those moments when you discover that you have either been horribly naive or terribly gutter-minded? So I’m in my kitchen this evening, making dinner and singing along to one of my favorite shows, Into the Woods.

“I request a cone of silence” – Get Smart Review

I don’t care what the reviews say, I loved Get Smart. The more I think about it, the more I like it. I thought Steve Carell as Maxwell Smart was perfect – and I mean PERFECT! He was so much fun to watch! His comedic timing is, without a doubt, among the best in the [...]

Wall-E! – Review

I’ll echo all of the other reviews out there in saying that Disney Pixar really can do no wrong and while I think Finding Nemo will always be my favorite, their latest film is amazing.

“You can sing, you can dance, and you won’t soil your pants”

C’mon people, what is it from? I’ll give you two hints: 1. the line is from the finale of the show and 2. “I fart in your general direction!”
So, I made the rounds at the office today to see who was a Broadway fan and who wasn’t. I was pleased to find that most people [...]

“It’s a hit”

ETA: I got another round of people today commenting on how good the scones were. I had one person tell me to make them anytime I wanted to and then my boss said to not make them too much because they were so good he can’t stop eating them and they aren’t too healthy. Interesting [...]

An Hour and a Half

It took me an hour and a half to get home from work today. I think this officially is the end of me taking the 77 bus to or from Harvard during the week. Oh my God. It took from 6:40 to 7:05 to get from Harvard Square to Porter Square.
Oh my God.

“Serious”ly – The search for the new Elle Woods on Broadway 6/23 recap

Why I continue to watch this show, I will never understand but I did and last night’s search for the new Elle Woods proved to be as guilty pleasure as ever. Thank God that b#$%# red-head was kicked off but, despite what you all may say, I liked Cassie O. and was sorry to see [...]
