  • Rain, Rain, Go Away!!

    Rain, Rain, Go Away!!

    ‘ I am sad to say that I had a lot more luck last year stalking the 79th Annual Academy Awards than I did this year at the 80th Annual Academy Awards. 🙁 We did have some fun, though! Yesterday morning, bright and early, my boyfriend and I headed to the Kodak Theatre at the…

  • Poquito Mas on the Sunset Strip

    Poquito Mas on the Sunset Strip

    ‘ Last month, fellow stalker Ashley, from The Drewseum website, wrote a comment on my Pinches Tacos post which stated that her girl, Miss Drew Barrymore, was often spotted at another West Hollywood-area taqueria, this one named Poquito Mas.  So, because I am always on the lookout for celeb hangouts, and good Mexican food, I…

  • The House Where Judy Lewis, Loretta Young and Clark Gable’s Daughter, Was Born

    The House Where Judy Lewis, Loretta Young and Clark Gable’s Daughter, Was Born

    ‘ Today’s locale is easily one of the coolest I have visited in my 13-plus years of living in Southern California, which is ironic being that it is comprised of mostly vacant land.  I am talking about the one-time location of the house where Judy Lewis, the secret love child of screen siren Loretta Young…

  • Happy Thanksgiving!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    ‘ I would like to wish a very happy Thanksgiving to all of my fellow stalkers!  I hope you are all enjoying a fabulous turkey dinner with your loved ones and reflecting upon all the good in your lives that you have to be thankful for!  I will be taking today and tomorrow off, as…

  • The Salton Sea

    The Salton Sea

    ‘ About fifty miles southeast of Palm Springs lies the Salton Sea, a former resort destination that I had wanted to stalk ever since seeing Troy Paiva’s haunting images of the place on his website Lost America.  Due to the fact that it is largely abandoned and hence lacking in public restrooms, I hesitated making…

  • Abbot’s Habit from “The Truth About Cats & Dog”

    Abbot’s Habit from “The Truth About Cats & Dog”

    ‘ Last Saturday, after stalking the Venice exterior of O’Hara’s Pub from Bad Santa (which I blogged about here), the Grim Cheaper and I decided to walk around Abbot Kinney Boulevard for a bit.  At one point during our stroll, we passed by a corner coffee shop named Abbot’s Habit and I recognized it immediately…

  • The Well from the Manhattan Well Murder of 1799

    The Well from the Manhattan Well Murder of 1799

    ‘ Oh, do I love a good ghost story!  Back in 2014, my friend Owen, from the When Write Is Wrong blog, sent me an article about a well in New York that was the site of an infamous 1799 murder.  The seven-foot by five-foot well, situated in the basement of a SoHo building that…

  • JFK and Jackie’s Former Georgetown Homes

    JFK and Jackie’s Former Georgetown Homes

    ‘ Considering how much I love history, I know shockingly little about former President John F. Kennedy and his wife, Jacqueline.  So I was thrilled when the Grim Cheaper gifted me with Jackie, Janet & Lee: The Secret Lives of Janet Auchincloss and Her Daughters Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Lee Radziwill last Christmas.  The 2018…

  • The “Perfect Strangers” Apartment Building

    The “Perfect Strangers” Apartment Building

    ‘ A few weeks ago, while perusing fave book Marilyn Monroe Dyed Here: More Locations of America’s Pop Culture Landmarks by Chris Epting (which was gifted to me by fellow stalker Lavonna – thanks, Lavonna! ), I came across a blurb about the supposed Chicago, Illinois-area apartment building where Balki Bartokomous (Bronson Pinchot) and “Cousin…

  • My Wedding Hair and Make-Up Stylists

    My Wedding Hair and Make-Up Stylists

    ‘ There are still quite a few stalking-related wedding posts that I have yet to blog about and I figured I might as well get started on them today since it has already been six months since the Grim Cheaper and I tied the knot.   So here goes.  For me, the decision of whether or…
