Diet Don'ts
So, I thought I’d try a salt water flush to kick off Bridget’s road-to-recovery, post-Thanksgiving, pre-Christmas, before-the-real-shit-hits-the-fan diet. So I did said flush, meaning I drank a quart (4 glasses if you’re like me and thinking about googling it) of salted water. It tasted so disgusting that my gag reflex kicked in circa glass two, and glasses three and four were...

Inspired by an IRC post:
You are on an improv team, along with 7 clones of you.
1. What is your team name?
2. What music do you come out to?
3. What warmups do you do?

In my quest to find Topo Gigio video in English, I found a wealth of puppetry! Hurrah!
I guess I don't understand grief.
I heard a great singer on the subway platform tonight, which made me happy as it’s hard to do - I hate subway serenades because too often they’re forced on me. I wished I knew someone in the music industry for him, and I would have bought a CD if there was one offered. I daydreamed of posing as a fake industry person and convincing him to get a CD put together because, seriously, he...
The Next President
purns:
This is one of those moments in history when it is worth pausing to reflect on the basic facts:

I worked at Flat Rock Playhouse from 2003-2004, and Robin was one of the kindest people there. He was a true backbone, with his hand in everything but kind and attentive to everyone who worked there regardless of their position. He will definitely be missed.
Takes too much time...
That’s what people keep telling me about voting, that it takes too much time. Well, to be fair, it took me & Lizzy about 40 mins to vote, but let’s be generous. Let’s say 45 minutes. What else could you do in 45 minutes once a year? It’s the same amount as time spent:
Sitting through the season premiere of Gray’s Anatomy thinking, “Is this for me? I...

I actually read this on Anna’s blog (http://annarubanova.com/) but I couldn’t figure out how to reblog from her. I got a 62, which makes me feel better about my usual arguments with Lizzy over whether clothes match.
