Dottie’s House from “A League of Their Own”
‘ I am pretty sure Penny Marshall had some sort of direct line of sight into my soul. The late director was behind several of my most beloved films. And not just movies I enjoy, but ones I find incredibly poignant, moving and enduring – productions that left a mark on my heart and invariably…

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…

Moving Day!
‘ My parents officially moved to Palm Springs today, marking the first time in over a decade that we will not be living in the same zip code. Watching their U-Haul drive off was one of the saddest moments I’ve experienced as of late, so I was not in a really good place to write…

Myra Jones’ Former House

‘ Got a call from fellow stalker Chas last week, who told me that he had finally received his Girls Just Want To Have Fun Netflix rental in the mail.

Daddy Day Care
‘ While out and about with my dad this week, I decided to stalk the home used in the Eddie Murphy movie Daddy Day Care. Since my dad just retired, he has been recruited to be my new stalking side kick! I think he loves it about just as much as my boyfriend does. 🙂…

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.

‘ My best friend, Robin, and his family are currently in town visiting from Switzerland for the week and I could NOT be more excited. We have rented an uh-ma-zing house in Hollywood for their stay and are all looking forward to countless adventures together over the next seven days. Although Robin and I see…
