  • Halloween 2008

    Halloween 2008

    ‘ For Halloween this year, I desperately wanted my boyfriend and I to dress up like Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio. I know, total shocker. 🙂 It all ended up coming together quite perfectly, too, as earlier this summer I found a white dress a la Marilyn’”‘”‘s subway grate ensemble, that was super inexpensive. I…

  • The “Rain Man” Convenience Store

    The “Rain Man” Convenience Store

    ‘ Back in February, while doing research on the Hollywood Hills apartment building where Charlie Babbitt (Tom Cruise) lived in 1988’s Rain Man, I came across a September 2004 article on the Palm Springs Life website titled “Quiet on the Set” about filming in the Coachella Valley.  And, let me tell you, I just about…

  • Humphrey’s Half Moon Inn & Suites from Bring It On

    Humphrey’s Half Moon Inn & Suites from Bring It On

    ‘ The second item on my Bring It On  stalking agenda from last weekend was a little hotel named Humphrey’”‘”‘s Half Moon Inn & Suites, which is also located on San Diego’”‘”‘s Shelter Island, just down the street from the Marlin Club which I blogged about yesterday.    This is one location that I actually hadn’”‘”‘t planned on stalking when I first…

  • The “Yes, Dear” House

    The “Yes, Dear” House

    ‘ One show that I never really understood the appeal of is Yes, Dear.  My dad loved the sitcom, which ran from 2000 to 2006, and watched it regularly, but I always found the characters slightly unlikable and the storylines a bit ridiculous.  Nevertheless, when I received an email from a fellow stalker named Jeremy…

  • Vivian’s Millennium Café

    Vivian’s Millennium Café

    ‘ I have to say that while I have always been a pretty big fan of Leah Remini (hello, Saved by the Bell! Who’s the Boss?! Living Dolls!), I don’t particularly love her reality show, Leah Remini: It’s All Relative.  I was fascinated to learn through watching it, though, that Leah’s husband, mother, and stepfather…

  • Cary and Jennifer Grant’s Former House

    Cary and Jennifer Grant’s Former House

    ‘ As I mentioned last month, back on May 28th I attended the Jennifer Grant book signing for Good Stuff, the actress’ newly-penned memoir about her late father, movie star Cary Grant.  Well, I finally finished reading the tome last weekend and I can honestly say that it is one of the best books I…

  • Slacking Off . . . Again!

    Slacking Off . . . Again!

    ‘ I unfortunately do not have a blog to post for today (yet again!), but I do have a good excuse.  My dad had surgery yesterday at Cedars- Sinai Hospital to determine how much damage was done to his pancreas over the past three years while he was taking the medication that caused his pancreatitis. …

  • My Day on the Set of Chelsea Lately!

    My Day on the Set of Chelsea Lately!

    ‘ As I mentioned in Monday’”‘”‘s post, this past weekend was a complete whirlwind for me!!  But getting engaged wasn’”‘”‘t the only exciting thing that happened.  No, the excitement of the weekend for me actually started on Friday when I got to spend a day on the set of my new favorite show, Chelsea Lately!!!   A few weeks back while…

  • The Den from “Sex and the City”

    The Den from “Sex and the City”

    ‘ It goes without saying that I have a tendency to obsess on things (that fact should be apparent to even my site’s most casual visitors).  Recently, I found myself obsessing over two locations featured in the L.A.-based Season 3 episode of Sex and the City titled “Sex and Another City.”  The first locale I…

  • Hotel Del Coronado

    Hotel Del Coronado

    ‘ Ever since I was a little girl, my family has been vacationing at Hotel Del Coronado on the island of Coronado. Hotel Del is a truly magical place – like no other hotel I have ever seen. Stepping inside it is literally like stepping back in time a hundred years to a completely different…
