Do you think I need a new satellite dish? Henry is not picking up any signals.

Have a Kawaii Monday
I must confess: I love the cute! Hamster gets a hamster-sized pizzaPhoto from HamsterTracker via CuteOverload Fuzzy, horned monster thingyPhoto from ToysREvil via NotCot Farm cookies with cute piggies.Order them at Eleni’s. If you’re ever in Sausalito, Calif., you must go here. This store is packed with huge selection of cute novelty gifts. I got…
Obsessions. Some Old, Some New.
1. Actor Sam Waterston‘s eyebrows. I think the long-time Law & Order cast member deserves three Emmys: one for him and one for each eyebrow. I always feel like the brows are acting out little plots of their own. No other eyebrows are so special. Admittedly, some people would vote for Martin Scorsese‘s. While I’m…
It’s That Time …
Tampon heart earring (With food coloring! Calm yourself!) Photo from Tampon Crafts Time for Tampon Crafts! I must say thanks to Jezebel for brightening my day with this hilarious DIY site. The blowgun with tampon bandolier is impressive, but the tampon pan flute video is a must-see and -hear! The hills are alive with the…
Butt Bows Iz Back in Fashun
I like lolcats. I like PostSecret. Therefore, I like lolsecretz. Here’s a lolWendy for you. That’s a vintage Guy Laroche gown. I would guess ’80s, wouldn’t you?
I Hope Angelina Jolie Doesn’t Get Nervous
Alas, Jezebel got to this before I could, but two days after the New York Times ran a big story on inconclusive/meaningless science, the Wall Street Journal reported that some pregnant women are freaking out over whether their lower-back tattoos make getting an epidural dangerous. Why are they freaking out? Because Pregnancy magazine ran a…
The Late Marc Jacobs
Run, tiny Marc Jacobs, run! The angry villagers are coming with their torches and pitchforks! Yes, that’s him on the left. Last week, I was too outraged by Marc Jacobs’s outrage at our outrage to post about it. Confused? The Marc Jacobs show last Monday started two hours late. Word had gotten out that the…
Teenage Fashion Bloggers Should Skip This
I expect this will be very boring for a certain demographic, but I loved the cover story of the New York Times Magazine this weekend (site requires registration). Gary Taubes wrote about the tendency to confuse association with cause-and-effect in large-scale observational studies. In other words, just because you notice two trends occurring simultaneously, it…
If Messed-Up Britney Makes You Happy…
… maybe you’re a bit messed up too. So says this this Salon article (via Jezebel) on Britney Spears’s catastrophe at the VMAs. I appreciated Salon writer Rebecca Traister‘s piece in general, but particularly her comment on the “fat” criticism of Britney. I think that all the heat she’s gotten on her weight has been…
I’m Feline Grey This Fall
Even cats are feeling grey for fall! I like how the other cat opted for a complementary orange-brown. Very chic! Only one thing could improve this beautiful photo…a lolcats caption! On second thought, orange-brown cat appears to be soundly asleep, while grey cat is keeping one eye open. That makes sense. You don’t get to…
