Movies of 2011
A mere week into the new year, a list! Not much to say by way of introduction – I saw slightly fewer movies this year, which mostly meant less junk. But while there were fewer total disasters, there were also … Continue reading
New beginnings
I didn’t watch the VMAs, because, come on, so I found out about the Bey Babay from a text at 9:13 last night, which read “BEYONCE. PREGNANT. WHAT?” I just feel so delighted by this news. All day I’ve had … Continue reading
