Has anyone ever used these clip on shades? I’m wondering if they will work with the new energy efficient lightbulbs (they’re longer than regular ones).

My sister is moving back to San Diego at the end of the month and is looking to get rid of her mattress and box spring. Does anyone know of a place in LA where she can donate it? Out of the Closet doesn’t take mattresses.

In dating news, I did not go out with The Brit on Tuesday. Apparently something happened between the time he asked, “Are you free Tuesday?” and Tuesday night. What exactly, I’m not sure, but I’m guessing it involves a certain bus. Of course, a phone call or even a text message would have been nice, but he didn’t even extend that courtesy. (Yes, I left a voicemail making sure he was OK. No, he did not respond.) What an inconsiderate shmo. When I went to bed, I realized I was more annoyed that I got flaked on than I was disappointed that I wasn’t going to see him.

In related news, the music industry guy called me earlier this week and within 30 seconds of talking, managed to mention a friend of a producer’s party in Malibu that he went to last weekend, a band he allegedly reps, and a script he may coordinate music for. He asked me out for dinner next week and for some reason, I said yes even though I have a feeling I’m going to sit there annoyed with him for an hour. I’m guessing it’s not nerves, it’s a need to brag.

Is anyone else watching The Next Food Network Star? I cringe every time I think about any of the contestants actually getting their own show.

In movie news, I’m back to loving Netflix. I recently watched Hairspray, which I really enjoyed except for John Travolta bugging me to no end. Next up is Devil’s Playground, a documentary about Amish teenagers during Rumspringa. Yes, I’m a documentary junkie.

Is this not the cutest name ever for a bakery? It’s on 3rd near Crescent Heights so you can bet I’ll be checking it out when it opens.

Lori tagged me in a meme that says: Write the title of your memoir in six words, post it on your blog, link to the person that tagged you, and tag five more blogs. So, my working title is: Hopefully, someone will avoid The Bus.

Rather than tag five bloggers, I’m going to use this as this week’s question: What would your six word memoir be titled?

I have read this meme on a ton of blogs and kept waiting to be tagged. So after whining in Dori’s comments, she tagged me. Little did I remember, I participated in a similar five weird habits about myself meme a couple of years ago. Oops.

Anyway, here are eight random facts/habits about me:

1. I hate hate hate having dishes in the sink before I go to bed. I would rather spend a few extra minutes washing them than leave them in the sink until the next day.
2. I feel naked without my watch. When I was in college, my watch died on the day of a final exam so I went out and bought one that morning.
3. I start a lot of projects but never finish them. They always seem like a good idea at the time, then I just get bored or uninspired and they sit there half completed.
4. About once a year, I’ll look up online the value of some of the baseball cards my dad and I saved from when I was a kid. Nothing is worth much.
5. I have awesome hearing. When I’m in a loud restaurant, I can always hear the music when no one else can.
6. When I’m baking (and not in a rush), I like to measure out all of the ingredients before I start mixing things. I’m organized like that.
7. I can fall asleep anywhere–in a room with a blaring TV, in a car, on an airplane–it doesn’t matter where I am as long as I’m tired.
8. Strangers love me. I could be at the market, the gas station, shopping, or walking down the street, and someone will stop and talk to me. I usually find out way too much about random people.

I’m supposed to tag two people, but I’m tagging anyone who wants to do it. Leave a comment if you do it on your blog!

*Schoolhouse Rock!

Even though Ari didn’t tag me for this meme, I’m doing it anyway. Willingly.

A- available? Yes. Know a nice Jewish boy for me?

B- best friend? Julie! Known here as JAB. We’ve been best friends since ninth grade.

C- cake or pie? Cake!

Z- zodiac? Leo.

I’ve been tagged by Nanette!

What were you doing one second ago?
Watching the news; and crying. And wondering what life will be like for the children I hope to have one day. And thinking about how, since last night, airline security in the U.S. is now quite similar to what we experienced flying to Israel on El Al in the late 1980s.

What were you doing an hour ago?
Grocery shopping then catching up with Julie on the phone.

What were you doing yesterday?
Working and playing on the Internet. Then after work, frantically searching LA for mini cupcake liners.

What were you doing a month ago?
Working, getting Strep, and going on a lot of fun dates.

What were you doing a year ago?
Working, going on a lot of fun (and not so fun) dates. Road tripping to Central California. Possibly contracting Mono.

Working at the job from hell with the boss from hell who made me cry everyday until I finally quit. And dating the Russian.

What were you doing ten years ago?
Finishing up college and dating The Ex.

Who would you like to tag?
Anyone who would like to complete this. If you do it, let me know!

Then I got tagged by Keith with this book meme:

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.

Don’t you dare dig for that “cool” or “intellectual” book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest, then tag three people.

Damn, when did memes get so mean? Anyway, here’s mine:

He didn’t need to elaborate. A suitable replacement would be found. “Or else!” as Tony was fond of saying.

– The Twins of Tribeca by Rachel Pine

And again, I’m not tagging anyone. If you want to do it, go right ahead. If you don’t, well then, you suck. Okay, not really.

I saw this A-Z about me meme on annabel lee’s blog and thought it would be fun. I know…volunteering to do a meme, what’s up with that? Enjoy!

Essential Electronics: TiVo, mp3 player, cell phone, laptop.

After sleeping more than 25 hours in two days, it’s safe to say I did my part in kicking this stupid cold’s butt. Unfortunately, I did miss out on girl’s night with Eve and Annabel Lee, but I did have time to finally get to work on these two memes, so here ya go.

Meme #1
From both Ari and Erin:

The first player of this game starts with the topic five weird habits of yourself, and people who get tagged need to write an entry about their five weird habits as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next five people to be tagged and link to their web journals. Don’t forget to leave a comment in their blog or journal that says “You have been tagged” (assuming they take comments) and tell them to read yours.

1. I curl my toes then drag them on the carpet. I don’t know why…I’ve been doing this since I was a kid.
2. I stick the word no at the end of a sentence. e.g., It’s hot out today, no? I think it’s a Jewish thing.
3. I hate having more than 10 emails in my inbox, so I will make time to respond in order to keep the inbox number below 10.
4. I will stay up late to unpack because I can’t stand having a filled suitcase just sitting there.
5. I like to drink my pulp-less orange juice with ice and a straw.

Annabel Lee tagged me with this lifetime meme:

10 years ago: I was in college and dating The Ex.

5 years ago: I bought my Civic. I spent way too long at the stupid dealership and walked out twice before the salesman followed me to my car and begged me to stay.

1 year ago: I turned 30.

Yesterday: I worked, went grocery shopping, talked on the phone, watched TV, then went to bed.

Today: I’m at work. Tonight I’ll probably run some errands, read my book club book, then catch up on my TiVo.

Tomorrow: I’ll work. But, Thursdays are Century City Farmer’s Market days which means I will buy some kettle corn. (I know, major excitement.) Tomorrow night I’m going to a shindig.

5 snacks I enjoy: Pretzels. Chocolate (is that a snack?). Baked chips. Fuji apples. Candy.

5 bands that I know the lyrics of MOST of their songs: Depeche Mode. Oingo Boingo. Guster. Billy Joel. Don McLean.

5 things I would do with $100,000,000: Buy a house. Buy a new car. Share money with my parents and sister. Set up a college fund for my Little. Donate to charity.

5 locations I’d like to run away to: Paris. Hawaii. Vegas. San Diego. London.

5 things I like doing: Baking. Reading. Going to the theater. Sleeping late. Anything with my family and friends.

5 things I would never wear: Shoes with a heel higher than 3 inches–I’m tall enough as it is; and well, I’m a klutz. Anything that I wore in the 80s that is “back in fashion” today. Pigtails. Anything that requires double sided tape. A padded bra.

5 TV shows I like: Arrested Development. Curb Your Enthusiasm. Law & Order. The Amazing Race. Beauty and the Geek.

5 movies I like: Swingers. Grease. Breakfast Club. Kissing Jessica Stein. Pretty in Pink.

5 famous people I’d like to meet: Jennifer Weiner. Edith Wharton. Shawn Green. Matt Dillon. The inventor of duct tape (so that I could tell him my dad has found 1001 uses for the stuff).

5 biggest joys at the moment: Family. Friends. The gorgeous weather. Being a Big Sister and watching my Little learn from me. The fact that come August, I will no longer have car payments.

(it’s cool, make fun of me because I like it)

And I tag Dan, Nanette, Charlie, Drew, Meg, and Kristin.

I’ve been tagged with a meme from Ari, even though she neglected to answer the one I tagged her with earlier this month. But whatever. Anyway, this meme states: Name five things that people with whom I generally associate think are really cool, but that leave me cold.

Okay, here we go:

1. KCRW


I’ve tried, I really have. But I just don’t see what everyone loves about KCRW. I don’t get it. I’m sorry. Start sending the hate mail.

2. Hugely Oversized Sunglasses


They’re silly. Just look at either of the Olsen twins. Why would anyone want to wear sunglasses the size of their head? Why? Why? Why?

3. Universal Citywalk


You drive over the hill, all the while sitting in traffic, then wait in line for 10 minutes to pay $10 for parking. Then you try to maneuver your way to your destination through Hell Citywalk, pushing through tourists and gang-bangers, and all night being bombarded with a recorded message being blasted through the loudspeakers about a curfew for those under 18 years of age. When you finally arrive at the restaurant/movies/bowling alley, you then must wait three days for a table/film/lane. Someone please tell me how this is fun.

4. Bikram Yoga


Yoga, I can understand. Hot and sweaty yoga, not so much.

5. Spending a Saturday Night on a First Date With an Internet Guy


Yes, I know you get taken out for a nice dinner [Ed. Note: Unless the guy is a creep and asks you for money to cover your half of the bill, not that I speak from experience or anything.] rather than just a beverage. However, what if the guy is a dud? Then you’ve wasted a few hours (not to mention a Saturday night) when you could have just met during the week one evening for a cocktail, and if things went well, move on to dinner or something else.

Like a good blogger, I will pass this meme to: Drew, Michael, Kristin, and Nanette.

My Urban Kvetch’s Esther tagged me with a meme so here ya go:

You’re stuck inside Fahrenheit 451, which book do you want to be?
Hmm. My book club just read this book last year. Assuming this means I would become one of the “Book People,” I would choose Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein although I have no idea how I could possibly memorize and recite the entire thing.

By the way, what’s up with no one having read this book? Wasn’t it required reading in junior high or high school?

Have you ever had a crush on a fictional character?
I’m sure I have, but I can’t remember who.

The last book you bought is:
Why Girls Are Weird by Pamela Ribon.

The last book you read:
Behind Everyman by David Israel.

What are you currently reading?
I am currently struggling through Why Girls Are Weird by Pamela Ribon, a (former) blogger. The book (it’s fiction) is about a writer who creates a blog kinda sorta but not really based on her life. The format is really confusing and it’s difficult to read, but I’m not ready to give up just yet.

Five books you would take to a deserted island:
Kissing in Manhattan by David Schickler, The Other Side of Mulholland by Stephen Randall, Why I’m Like This: True Stories by Cynthia Kaplan, The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton, and Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein.

Who are you going to pass this stick to (3 persons) and why?
Erin because I know she’s an avid reader, Marissa because she’s always reading books that I must add to my list, and Ari because she and I enjoy a lot of the same authors.

What year was it?
1991-1992

What were your three favorite bands or musical artists?
Oingo Boingo, Depeche Mode, Morrissey

What was your favorite outfit?
I can’t remember. JAB and mom, help me out with this one!

What was up with your hair?
One word: Jewfro. It was to my shoulders and curly. Ick.

Who were your best friends?
JAB and Sara.

Where did you work?
During school breaks, I worked at La Petite Boulangerie (it was a bakery owned by Mrs. Fields).

What did you do after school?
Hung out with JAB at my dad’s office (conveniently located near a certain pizza place, ahem, JAB) and looked for a certain pizza delivery boy for said friend.

Did you take the bus?
Nope. I drove my 1979 beige Volvo with red interior and a rearview mirror that fell off often enough that my dad went to a Volvo junkyard to get me a “new” one. Either that, or JAB would drive us in her Cimarron.

Who did you have a crush on?
A tall guy on the soccer team with a grey patch in his hair who was a year younger than me.

Did you fight with your parents?
All the time!

Who did you have a CELEBRITY crush on?
Brad Pitt. This is before he was famous. JAB and I discovered him actually. He was on a tv show called Glory Days and played a journalist named Walker Lovejoy. Unfortunately the show didn’t even run for a full season, but we were in love.

Did you smoke cigarettes?
Nope. Never have.

Did you lug all of your books around in your backpack because you were too nervous to find your locker?
We used our lockers. Especially when they were assigned alphabetically. Right JAB?

Did you have a clique?
I wouldn’t call it a clique. Our graduating class was pretty friendly all around.

Did you have “The Max” like Zach Kelly and Slater?
We went to Round Table Pizza after every football game. Also, JAB and I seemed to go to Red Robin a lot. Not sure why.

Admit it, were you popular?
I got along with everyone. And I think I got recognized a lot because I was on our school tv show.

Who did you want to be just like?
Hmm. No one I can think of.

What did you want to be when you grew up?
A journalist.

Where did you think you’d be at the age you are now?
Married with kids. Obviously, I’m neither married nor with kids. Oh well.

Ellison at What Ellison Drinks because I enjoy his posts about things other than liquids.
