  • The “Christmas Vacation” Pool

    The “Christmas Vacation” Pool

    ‘ Another Christmas-themed locale that I had long wanted to track down and stalk was Clark W. Griswold’s (Chevy Chase’s) dream pool from the 1989 classic Christmas Vacation.  (Is it odd, by the way, that I can still remember exactly where I was and who I was with the first time I saw the flick…

  • Happy Memorial Day!

    Happy Memorial Day!

    ‘ I would like to wish all of my fellow stalkers a happy Memorial Day.  I hope everyone takes a moment today to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect America’s freedoms.  I know I will be.  And I will return here on Wednesday with a new post. ‘

  • Happy 2009!

    Happy 2009!

    ‘ Last night, while watching the annual New Year’”‘”‘s Eve Ball Drop on television, my best friend mentioned that she wished she could see a photograph of a person standing next to the famous ball so that she could get an idea of how big it is in real life. Well, I just so happened…

  • Ashley’s Apartment from “Just My Luck”

    Ashley’s Apartment from “Just My Luck”

    ‘ I do not have the best taste in movies and am the first to admit it.  Case in point – Just My Luck, a 2006 Lindsay Lohan romcom that I absolutely love.  Have I lost you already?  If so, it’s understandable.  But I find the film adorable.  I’ve seen it about a hundred times…

  • An “Extra” Taping with “The Bachelorette’s” Emily Maynard!

    An “Extra” Taping with “The Bachelorette’s” Emily Maynard!

    ‘ Late last week, Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, informed me that the current Bachelorette, the impossibly adorable Emily Maynard, would be filming a segment for Extra at The Grove in L.A. on Tuesday, May 22nd.   And while I am not usually a fan of getting celebrity pictures during Extra tapings –…

  • Jess’ House from “New Girl”

    Jess’ House from “New Girl”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, my good friend/fellow stalker Lavonna asked me to track down the residence where Jess (Zooey Deschanel) lived prior to moving into the ultra-cool Binford Building on fave show New Girl.  Jess’ former house only appeared once on the series, in the Season 1 episode titled “Kryptonite”, and thankfully I…

  • The Adamson House from “You”

    The Adamson House from “You”

    ‘ The second season of You had me feeling like an inadequate Angelino!  (Yes, even though I now live in Palm Springs, I still consider myself an L.A. denizen.)  In episode 6, “Farewell, My Bunny,” Love Quinn (Victoria Pedretti) and her friends teach Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) about Los Angeles’ “seven totems,” which, once seen,…

  • Viola’s Mansion from “Monster-in-Law”

    Viola’s Mansion from “Monster-in-Law”

    ‘ The second Monster-in-Law location that I set my sights on tracking down this past weekend was the gargantuan mansion owned by Viola Fields (aka Jane Fonda) in the flick.  Once again, fellow stalker Nick had done most of the legwork on this one by discerning that the house was located in Pasadena and had…

  • Paco’s Tacos Cantina From Jerry Maguire

    Paco’s Tacos Cantina From Jerry Maguire

    ‘ Last Friday, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I spent an entire twelve hours stalking together!!!  Yes, you read that right – an ENTIRE TWELVE HOURS!!!  I’”‘”‘m not exaggerating!!  The two of us literally drove from one end of L.A. to the other – we covered Pasadena, Redondo Beach, Eagle Rock, El Segundo, and even Santa Monica – and back again!  It was FABULOUS!  🙂 …

  • The Last Bookstore from “Gone Girl”

    The Last Bookstore from “Gone Girl”

    ‘ I love bookstores – and books.  Actual books, not the digitized versions.  You will never catch me reading on a Kindle.  I like the feel of a book in my hands, the physical act of turning the pages and the smell.  I love, love, love the smell of books.  The Grim Cheaper always makes…
