  • A Much-Needed Vacay!

    A Much-Needed Vacay!

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I are embarking upon a much-needed vacay – a real vacation, yahoo! – this morning, so I will be taking the entire next week and the following Monday off from blogging.  But I will be back on Tuesday, August 14th with a whole new location. I would also like to…

  • The “Six Feet Under” Flower Shop – One of the Last Places James Dean Was Seen Alive

    The “Six Feet Under” Flower Shop – One of the Last Places James Dean Was Seen Alive

    ‘ I promise to get back to my wedding blogging in the near future, but for today I thought I’d do a post about a location that I stalked this past weekend – the Blossom d’Amour flower shop where Ruth Fisher (aka Frances Conroy) worked on the hit HBO television series Six Feet Under.  While…

  • Phil’s Bar from “Little Black Book”

    Phil’s Bar from “Little Black Book”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, I got on a kick of tracking down locations from fave movie Little Black Book.  Now I should mention here, before I go any further, that the 2004 romantic comedy really isn’t all that good.  I can’t explain why I love it as much as I do, but I…

  • The Sierra Bonita Apartments from “Mulholland Dr.”

    The Sierra Bonita Apartments from “Mulholland Dr.”

    ‘ Another Haunted-Hollywood-type location that I found thanks to fellow stalker/David Lynch aficionado Brad, from the Brad D Studios website, was the fictionally-named “Sierra Bonita” apartment complex –  the fairy-tale-style property that was featured in one of the more intense and terrifying scenes from the surrealist director’s incredibly odd 2001 thriller Mulholland Dr. Brad had…

  • The Canyon Country Store Where Jennifer Aniston Used to Work

    The Canyon Country Store Where Jennifer Aniston Used to Work

    ‘ I just recently finished reading Jennifer: The Unauthorized Biography, a FABULOUS book about my girl Jen Aniston written by Sean Smith, a famed British biographer who has also penned bestselling bios about J.K Rowling, Britney Spears, and Justin Timberlake.  According to the brief blurb about Smith featured on the book’s first page, the U.K.…

  • Market from “Mother”

    Market from “Mother”

    ‘ I absolutely love surprises! So I was thrilled to receive an email a couple of days ago from my friend Michael with the news that he had written yet another guest post! For those who don’t read IAMNOTASTALKER regularly, Michael is a frequent contributor. His body of work is now so large, in fact,…

  • The LAPD/FBI Headquarters from “The Fast and the Furious”

    The LAPD/FBI Headquarters from “The Fast and the Furious”

    ‘ One location that I am asked about constantly is the mid-century modern-style, circular-shaped home that served as the LAPD/FBI undercover headquarters in the 2001 flick The Fast and the Furious.  And while fellow stalker Gary, of the Seeing Stars website, had briefly written about the Beverly Hills property a couple of years ago after…

  • Dealey Plaza – Where JFK Was Assassinated

    Dealey Plaza – Where JFK Was Assassinated

    ‘ As most of my fellow stalkers already well know due to the deluge of media attention, today marks the fiftieth anniversary of the assassination of John F. Kennedy.  I was not yet even a twinkle in my parents’ eyes on November 22nd, 1963, so I did not experience the tragic events firsthand, but they…

  • City Supper Club from “He’s Just Not That Into You”

    City Supper Club from “He’s Just Not That Into You”

    ‘ Back in February, I wrote a Scene it Before column for L.A. magazine covering a few locales from He’s Just Not That Into You in honor of the romcom’s 20th anniversary.  While researching, I was thrilled to come across a mention on production designer Gae Buckley’s website that the supposed Baltimore-area City Supper Club,…

  • Spring Cleaning!

    Spring Cleaning!

    ‘ I hate to do this again, but . . . my parents came to town this past weekend to celebrate Easter with the Grim Cheaper and me and, in preparation for their visit, I spent all day Friday cleaning and tidying up our apartment.  As the GC loves to tell anyone who will listen…
