This is absolutely no joke. You MUST watch the trailer - funny yet concerning. I’m personally a bit offended that I wasn’t asked to be in the film.

The documentary is by newcomer Christie Callan-Jones is currently touring the indie fest circuit to generally positive, if unsettling, reviews. However, the doc’s mission statement seems to snarf at the inevitable snark: “[Cat Ladies] unravels the real story behind the oft-ridiculed ‘cat lady’—a cultural stereotype and figure of ridicule for women of a certain age with too many furry companions.”

I post. You decide.



Here’s Sirloin and I watching the trailer. We’re enthralled.

Sale. Sale. Sale. Have I caught every woman’s attention? Wegmans is the best because they have huge S.A.L.E.S. Constantly. Yes. This I am not lying about.

Here is a list of the things I normally get on sale at Wegmans and the price. I challenge you to try and beat this at Giant, Safeway, or best of all Whole Foods (as much as I do enjoy the Whole Foods near my house).

1. 24 Pack of 16.9FL bottled spring water = $3.99
2. 8 Pack of extra absorbent paper towels = $4.99
3. 1 3 oz can of fancy feast gourmet cat food = $0.45
4. 1 dozen large eggs = $0.99
5. 160 facial tissues = $0.79

Seriously, people. I’m really not making this up! If you live near a Wegmans pick up the weekly flyer and have a look through it. You’re sure to find some deals. Below is an image of the Fairfax flyer this week. Pick one up and start saving today!

I should have been doing this for the last 4 years! Sirloin would love it!!! My favorite are the cat twists. They seem relatively easy and the tip at the end cracks me up:

And this is how I feel on a daily basis…

The Most Interesting Man in the World is ironic.

… and his tagline: Stay thirsty my friends. Wow, what a guy. I want to know him, don’t you?



So, how is it possible that the most interesting man in the world was created by an agency with the least interesting website in the world? That’s the ironic part. The agency that created the sweet ditty of a spot above is Euro RSCG Worldwide. Intrigued once I found their name linked to the commercial, I went to the Euro RSCG website. Not only is it in flash, but it has sound and has absolutely no call to action upon arrival (unless you consider the note in the upper right-hand corner a lame attempt). I digress, this post was really supposed to highlight the hilariousness of this fabulous commercial and not to knock on the agency that created. I just had to say, I did expect better.

I know, I know. It’s been a while since I last posted. I have no excuse beyond being busy, which nobody really accepts anymore anyway, so I digress.

The Urban Cowboy, New York City’s finest designer around - Mark Guthridge - sent me this video today. I just love it and wanted to use it to inspire me to start blogging again. A little inspiration goes a long way, huh?

I saw Ladytron & the Faint last night at the 930 Club. They were quite good, I enjoyed their quiet spirit (and their jokes!). Ghosts was one of my favorites of the night.

Enjoy!



Thanks for the invite Mr. M.

This is absolutely hysterical. I was laughing so hard I was crying. Literally. If you’re not a cat person you probably won’t enjoy it as much, but do watch about a minute and a half of it if you can stand it. The cat just starts to wander around with the bag on it’s head.

SO CUTE!!!
