Crunch Time

My client will be in the office next week, which means weekday posting from me will be sporadic and shitty until then. My apologies.

Until then, I will attempt to distract you all with shiny links. Oooh, shiny!

Chicago is one of the top five drunkest cities in America. Yaaaaaaay!

The Huffington Post is launching its Chicago branch tomorrow. So I might as well link to it today and be all ahead of the game and shit, right?

Crissy >>>>>>>>>>>> everyone else.

The Corduroy Appreciation Club is stupidly adorable. All WALES are welcome! Get it!? Get it? Christ, someone had better get this one…

Next nerd-riffic movie obsession? The Watchmen. Holy hell. If you haven’t read this already, get on it (Chris, you’re exempt.).

Remember that one time Maggie Gylllennhaaallll (I have no idea how to actually spell her name) was in a really badass movie and looked really cute and not tired or old and the movie wasn’t “Stranger Than Fiction“? It was called “Secretary” and it is an AWFUL movie to watch with your dad. (The movie itself is fucking GREAT, but my dad tried to watch it with me, and I don’t feel comfortable watching a movie about BDSM with him.) Anyway, it’s based on a short story by the same name that I found a while ago and promptly forgot about until just now. It has a much different tone than the movie, but is still awesome, just the same. Read it, bitches.

    I am moderately in love with the Corduroy Appreciation Club. And by moderately, I mean obsessively.

    if that movie counts as “borderline” BDSM, i am sort of scared by what constitutes full BDSM in your book.

    I second Pete. That said, I LOVE SECRETARY. As in I own it.

    Should I then be expecting another odd email? Oh well…crush on James Spader is validated, thanks.

    Jenny -
    I will feign surprise about this.

    Pete & TKTC -
    Alright, alright, I changed it. I forgot about the whole “tied to a tree while fucking” bit.

    TKTC -
    You haven’t gotten any others, since, have you? I figured that you would have told me if you had. But if James Spader emails you, I will be eternally jealous.

    You see, this is why I have added Chicago to my list of Places to Job Hunt. I will fit right in!

    We get snippets of the “Carmen Electra Works It Out On A Pole” on comcast ondemand, but it NEVER works out like that. EVER. I feel cheated.

    Rebekah -
    It’s not a noticeable downtown, but yes, we are a big pile of drunk out here.

    Maxie -
    You were here…drinking….
    You couldn’t tell? ;)

    Julsmcy -

    I just like saying it and dragging out all the sounds for as long as possible until someone tells me to “knock it the fuck off, that is so annoying.”

    Ugh – Maggie Gylenhal is about as ugly as it gets. She was the only bad part about The Dark Knight.
