How not to spend your holiday weekend (UPDATED)
Couldn’t figure out how to get this to the top of the feed after I edited it, so here it is here.
How not to spend your holiday weekend (UPDATED)
Hello CT friends. I just returned home from stint #2 in the hospital. After spending four days at home, it became apparent that the antibiotic I was sent home with was not doing the job. So after an initial five nights in the hospital, I got to spend an additional SIX nights in the hospital on IV antibiotics. Long…
Why did I wait so long to get one of these?
OK, so yesterday and today kind of suck, because I took vacation days and woke up with a cold yesterday. Yay, sick on my vacation days. But I finally got a neti pot and wow, oh wow, does that feel good. I have used saline spray in the past but this is a whole different feeling. I am doing this twice a day and…
Is this cultural appropriation?
WW Jr. and I have had several conversations about cultural appropriation and costuming. I didn’t dress up for Halloween this year, but I saw a how-to video on some amazing Dia de los Muertos style makeup, so I mentioned to WW Jr. that if I dressed up next year, I would love to do that makeup.
Hanks and Fallon being cute
Acting out scenes written by 7-year-olds.
Can I just say
Some people are terrible. So this person who I used to be friends with a billion years ago has been ignoring my friend request for like five years. So, whatever. I guess we weren’t as good of friends as I had thought, way back when.
At least they were talking about him.
OTOH, I laughed my ass off at this text from a friend. Or should I have cried?
Gideon, what are your thoughts on Wentworth
As compared to OITNB? Also have you ever watched the original Prisoner on which Wentworth is based? Even though you were toddling around in your nappies at the time, maybe you’ve caught it more recently. I’m six episodes into Wentworth and it reminds me a lot of OITNB. I was sorry to have gone snooping around and…
Damages got really boring...
...after Tate Donovan and Ted Danson left.
Milkshaker, did we talk about
The Wind that Shakes the Barley when we were going on about Cillian Murphy? I'm embarrassed to admit I couldn't get through much of it. The violence, the injustice, the sadness. It won the Palme d'Or and I'm such a baby. I stopped about a quarter of the way through and read the plot summary on Wikipedia, then realized…

Full story:
I think I am permanently scarred
Because I am the only person left on the planet who had not watched the final season of The Sopranos (which is due to a variety of stupid reasons, mostly logistical), I spent all my free time the last couple of weeks watching these final 21 episodes. The whole season had a lot of enhanced meaning and weird double…
Well, that was short-lived
I don't know who I pissed off, but my few weeks of being in the black on Gawker are apparently over.
My fellow man
On foot in a major city. Ambulance is screaming down the street I'm on and while cars on the cross street in front of me wait, a cab driver is honking at everyone in front of him to drive into the path of the oncoming ambulance. I yelled at this genius (twice) that there was an ambulance coming, although there is no…
