Stuff
I was really cranky on Friday, in case you couldn't tell. Saturday was entertaining. It's not every day you get to see someone take a pair of scissors to a dress that costs about what I make in a month, let me just say.

Monday morning
I should not have stayed up late to watch Alias after the movies we rented last night, but it was so damn good that I can forgive them the last dozen or so crappy episodes. Good ol' Jack, killing people and reviving them just so he can kill them again. That's badass. Kill Bill … [Read more...] about Monday morning
