I'm kind of a nerd and definitely a geek. I like cartoons, terrible movies, robots, video games and Disneyland.

Pet Hospital
My silly dog has some kind of virus. Antibiotics were $3, blood tests were...$195. :( Great vet, though!

great vet for a great price... lol
The Virgin Suicides
More Kirsten. I always thought she was kind of obnoxious but she's such a natural actress. I love her!
chrismolnar
sofia coppola movies have such a unique vibe... all very similar but great.
girlfriday
Love it.
Interview with the Vampire
This movie is such trashy, cheesy fun. I have a newfound love of Kirsten Dunst and have been watching my way through all her movies...and this is a great one. Oh, the days before we knew how crazy Tom Cruise really was...
Ambition Is Not a Dirty Word: A Woman's Guide to Earning Her Worth and A...
I was actually disappointed in this one, despite having high hopes. The first part of the book is spent convincing you that having ambition is OK (which I totally already get), and the next part (the step-by-step stuff) only really applies if you work in an office environment/traditional work setting. Disappointed!
American Pastoral by Philip Roth
I realized I have a huge backlog of great books I have never read, so I decided to start ordering them used on Amazon. This just came today and I can't wait to read it! Anyone else read this? (Probably everyone but me has, right?)
The Sartorialist by Scott Schuman
I love The Sartorialist (www.thesartorialist.com), so I had to buy this book. These people always make me feel like such a slob by comparison :D
gkruis
You gotta suffer for fashion if you wanna make it in the sartorialist.
amyuhrich
How does the book compare to the blog? I'm not as into The Sartorialist as others; maybe because I've read so many fashion blogs that I'm already overloaded with photos of people dressing up. But I still can't help but gawk at the photos every once in a while. Jak & Jil is another good one; for example: http://bit.ly/bJxvOw
@heiditron Have you looked at the FRUITS books? On the whole I find Harajuku fashion more entertaining (and often decidedly sloppy). http://amzn.to/fQI18N

Harajuku fashion is a great theme for a party!
amyuhrich
I used to dress pseudo-Lolita (as in, the Japanese fashion movement, not Nabokov. Oh wait...). The Harajuku District in Tokyo is still at the top of my list of places to visit. I miss the days of totally carefree fashion. I mean, I still love to dress like a freak, but nothing quite as fun as that...
Air - The Virgin Suicides: Original Motion Picture Score
This score is amazing and all based around the central theme of Air's "Playground Love," one of my favorite, dreamiest songs. (Video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mQ4reLS8Lo) The movie is also on Netflix streaming now, and it's a perfect, summery kind of movie. Highly recommend the movie, the score and the soundtrack (which has some awesome 70s tracks).
amyuhrich
That's a great album cover. I just have to say. Love the film and the score, too. Coppola's films always have a great score/soundtrack.
Disneyland
One of my (broke) friends came to visit so I bought him a day pass to Disneyland. I really hope there is some kind of "Best Friend of the Year" award.

Arrested Development
YEP, RE-WATCHING THIS BAD BOY. AGAIN. God, I miss this show :(
chrismolnar
if only they would make a movie. how hard is that?

I know, right?! NEED ME MY BLUTHS FIX!

GOB Bluth is like the best character ever! :)
Charlie's Angels
This movie is terrible and cheesy and I love it. I should probably be punished :(
Virgie's Ice Cream
The cutest ice cream parlor in my hometown. Got me a scoop of strawberry when I was out taking photos last weekend!

Cute name. How many flavors?
beverlynoelle
They didn't have a TON, maybe 8-10? But I knew I was just getting strawberry anyway...I mean, I'm pretty boring like that :D
The Iron Giant
I love this movie. Giant robots? Sleepy 50s setting? Lovely animation? There is pretty much nothing not to like about this one!
The Tudors
OK, so when I watched the first episode of this, I thought it was kind of ridiculous...TONS of sex, not really all that compelling, etc. But now I'm on episode seven and I'm kind of hooked. I don't know why, because don't get me wrong, this is TOTAL trash...and I can't stop watching :(
impulsebuyer
I know its a completely different time period, but how does this compare to Spartacus?
beverlynoelle
Full of sex, takes liberties with history, lightly anachronistic? I'd say this is on par with Spartacus for sure!
riddlefish
That's exactly what happened for me with True Blood... I had to wait for a season break.
chrismolnar
i love these shows! now there's "camelot" too.
Various - Tangled
NO I DID NOT BUY THE SOUNDTRACK FOR TANGLED AND IF I DID IT WAS ONLY TO GET THE FREE YEAR OF 20GB CLOUD STORAGE FROM AMAZON AND NOT BECAUSE IT IS ADORABLE AND PRECIOUS
michaelaking
yeah yeah yeah its ok we all have our secret shame.. atleast its not justin beiber.... who i may or may not have in my itunes.
lala412
Oh! I would have SO bought it to get the 20GB had I seen it was in the $5 category! I ended up getting something I'd never heard of just to see what it was like (can't remember what it was right now). I'm going to have to get Tangled too, though! I love Disney. ;-)

Mailin' a cookbook I sold on etsy. For once the post office wasn't busy...it was like some kind of alternate universe post office or something!

I love those alternate universe post offices.
beverlynoelle
It was crazy because I went at like...12:15...right during everyone's lunch break...and it was empty except for a dude who was mailing a box for (no kidding) $108!!!! I think I may have inadvertently opened a portal to some other world...
saunieindiego
If you create the label from home using an account you can create on USPS you can get discount shipping! I'm just sayin'
Futurama
How did it take me so long to start watching the new season? It's so much better than the lame movies (yeah, I said it) and I can't wait for....season six?!
fnoo
And now two more seasons have been commissioned. Basically as much Futurama has now been made or commissioned post-cancellation as was pre-cancellation.
amyuhrich
@heiditron I'm sorry, someone forbids Futurama? Did I read that right? Why on earth would anyone do that?
fnoo
The future is serious business.
