Is this thing on? I miss long form writing but I don’t know if anyone is still here.

Kristin Kreuk at Wondercon. Positives: the leggings! The shoes! The necklace! The face and the hair, of course.

That jacket?! Oh why that jacket? You know the Sex and the City episode where Carrie strongarms everyone into going to Atlantic City so they can all be together for Charlotte's birthday despite the fact that Atlantic City is the last place Charlotte would want to be period, let alone celebrate her birthday there? In that episode, Charlotte gets so depressed at turning thirty something that she breaks down and buys a horrible, sparkly dress at the casino store and basically gives up (again) and decides to be an AC ho for about twenty minutes. I never believed that AC hotel boutiques could be that bad until, a few weeks ago, I saw the carnage for myself when I got talked into spending a few days there. The first day was fine, I went to the outlets and got some cute stuff but the second day there was a mini hurricane and I was confined to the hotel so I went to the hotel boutique just to see if the horror of that episode was real.

It was because I'm almost 100% certain that I saw that jacket there.

Erica Durance on eTalk at the Canadian Screen Awards

I didn't like Erica or Kristin's choice of attire. I did like Laura's dress. Did you like Laura or Kristin's attire?

I LOVED Laura's dress. The fit, the color all worked together like a symphony of elegance. Kristin's jumpsuit was fantastic and her accessories were spot on. Those bracelets!!! Even though I didn't love her shoes, in the context of her overall look, they worked. Her jumpsuit was printed silk and that doesn't always photograph well so I'm sure it looked much better in person.

Sigh.

The thing I've come to realize is that I will always hate what Erica wears on the red carpet. Casual Erica is a different story but Red Carpet Erica and I just will not ever agree. This is tragic and I cop to my bias against "party sleeves". Cutouts should be on the body, not the arms. Why is always black with her? I see she's been working with Sima Kumar who also styles Kristin Kreuk....

So many years living life underwater. Came up for air in the room of your daughter. Never knew I would find my answer in my ex-girlfriends uncles’s house. With the tiny pink panther.

Mr. K (now Marla) was my sophomore year religion teacher. She was a wonderful, inspiring presence who treated her students with respect for their intellect as well as their overall humanity. I am ashamed that my alma mater refuses to accord her that same respect due to the ignorance of one parent who decided that a transgender teacher had no place in a Catholic school.

Rob Jones - Anatomical Heart, 2007

A human heart stripped of all fat and muscle, leaving just the angel veins exposed. The blood is replaced by a plastic substance, filling all of the veins, capillaries, etc. The heart is then put into a solution that dissolves all the remaining tissue, leaving this incredible detail behind.
