    The Three Clubs from “Swingers”

    ‘ Besides a great coffee shop, there’s pretty much nothing I love more than an unpretentious bar/restaurant that boasts a retro vibe (as evidenced here, here, here, here, here, and here).  Add in a filming location element and I am completely smitten!  One that had been on my To-Stalk List for what seemed like eons…

    A Visit to My Grandma’s

    ‘ I am currently in Reno visiting my Grandma for a couple of days, so I will be taking the rest of the week off from blogging.  But I will be back on Monday with a whole new post!  Hope my fellow stalkers have a great week! ‘

  • My Favorite Entertainment Finds of 2018

    My Favorite Entertainment Finds of 2018

    ‘ I watch a lot of television and movies throughout the year – as both part of my job and for entertainment.  I am also a voracious reader and listen to a copious amount of podcasts.  2018 brought a slew of new finds.  Some started out as promising, but completely missed the mark [I’m looking…

  • Oscar Weekend 2010

    Oscar Weekend 2010

    ‘ The celebrity sightings during Oscar Weekend 2010 started a bit early for me this year when Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I accidentally stumbled upon the filming of CSI: Miami in Altadena on Friday morning.  But I’ll save that story for tomorrow’s blog post.  Today, it’s strictly all about Oscar, Oscar, Oscar!  And, let me…

  • Barnsdall Art Park from “Big Little Lies”

    Barnsdall Art Park from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper is easily the most creative gift-giver I know.  Not only does he find incredibly thoughtful presents, but he always comes up with highly unique ways of presenting them.  I have only ever managed to match his ingenuity on rare occasions – one being Valentine’s Day 2011 when I created a scavenger…

  • The “Some Kind of Wonderful” Party House

    The “Some Kind of Wonderful” Party House

    ‘ While I was stalking Steff’s mansion from Pretty in Pink, which I blogged about last Thursday, fellow stalker Mike, from MovieShotsLA, texted me to let me know that the party house from another classic John Hughes-penned ‘80s movie, 1987’s Some Kind of Wonderful, was located literally just around the corner on Hudson Avenue.  So…

  • The “Nanny and the Professor” House

    The “Nanny and the Professor” House

    ‘ Last week, fellow stalker James posted a comment on my site challenging me to find the residence where the Everett family – widowed Professor Harold Everett (Richard Long) and his three children, Hal (David Doremus), Butch (Trent Lehman), and Prudence (The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Kim Richards), and their nanny, Nanny Phoebe Figalilly…

    Twin Palms – Frank Sinatra’s Former Palm Springs Estate

    ‘ Another Palm-Springs-area location that the Grim Cheaper and I stalked two weekends ago while vacationing in the Coachella Valley was Twin Palms, the former desert home of legendary crooner Frank Sinatra and his then-wife Nancy Barbato.  And while I have actually stalked – and even blogged about – this location once before (way back…

  • Paramount Studios as a Wedding Venue

    Paramount Studios as a Wedding Venue

    ‘ Well, I guess it is finally about time that I start blogging about my wedding, but I can’t very well do that without first writing about the place where I got almost all of my wedding planning inspiration – the Studios at Paramount Pictures in Hollywood.  When Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I embarked on…

    Juliette, Georgia from “Fried Green Tomatoes”

    ‘ I have a very special post coming to you today – the first of its kind at IAMNOTASTALKER!  Sara Johnson, one of my longtime readers, recently headed to Juliette, Georgia for an epic Fried Green Tomatoes stalking trip and was kind enough to write up her experiences to share with my fellow stalkers.  So,…
