    Taking Another Day Off

    ‘ For my birthday this year, my parents surprised me with a one night’s stay in the room at the Ingleside Inn in Palm Springs where my girl Jen Aniston and then-husband Brad Pitt spent their honeymoon.  (That’s me just about to go into the room for the first time in the above picture.  ) …

    The “Three’s Company” Apartment Building

    ‘ This past Tuesday afternoon, while I was in the hospital awaiting my dad’s surgery, I received an email from fellow stalker Owen, from the When Write Is Wrong blog, and I just about jumped out of my chair with excitement. The opening sentences of his email stated, “I’m actually trembling a bit as I…

    The Best Place to View the Hollywood Sign!

    ‘ There is one site in Los Angeles that I absolutely never get tired of, no matter how many times I see it. Even though I can now officially call myself a native Angeleno, I am not ashamed to admit that I still get a little jolt of butterflies in my stomach every time I…

    The Standard Hotel Rooftop Bar in Downtown Los Angeles

    ‘ Another Fracture filming location that I recently stalked – without actually realizing it – was the Standard Hotel’s Rooftop Bar in Downtown L.A.  I say “without actually realizing it” because at the time I stalked the place I had no idea it was a filming location.   I ended up there while on the way…

    Don Antonio’s from “The Hills” and “Life in Pieces”

    ‘ I am a creature of habit, so it should come as no surprise that Don Antonio’s – the subject of my very first blog post back in 2007 – has remained my favorite Mexican restaurant ever since I first set foot inside it over a decade ago.  I initially learned about the Sawtelle-area eatery…

    Oscar Weekend 2013

    ‘ I spent this past weekend in L.A. doing some pre-Oscar stalking and while I did not have as much luck with celebrity photos this year as I have in years past, my girl Miss Pinky Lovejoy, from the Thinking Pink blog, did.  I think she got about 55 celeb pics in total!  I really…

  • Brand Library from “Scorpion”

    Brand Library from “Scorpion”

    ‘ I am probably the only person you will ever hear say this, but I absolutely loved working as a background actor in Hollywood.  Sure, the hours were long and unpredictable and the work tedious and repetitive, but the opportunities I was afforded to be up-close-and-personal with the inner workings of movie and television production…

    Paul Rudd’s House From “I Love You, Man”

    ‘ One location I have been trying to find for quite some time now is the Mid-Century Modern style abode where Paul Rudd and Rashida Jones lived in fave romantic comedy I Love You, Man.   I was dying to stalk the house not only because of its incredibly unique architecture, but also because I was such a big fan of the movie. …
