    The Gilmore Mansion from “Gilmore Girls”

    ‘ While I realize this may be considered blasphemy in some circles, I have never really watched Gilmore Girls.  On paper, the show definitely looks like something that would appeal to me, but for whatever reason, I failed to tune in when it originally started airing in 2000.  At the behest of fellow stalker/Gilmore Girls…

    Halloween 2014

    ‘ I do realize that it is November 4th and that the Halloween season has, by now, sadly ended, but you are going to have to bear with me for a couple of more days because I still have two more Haunted Hollywood posts to write.  This Halloween was one for the record books!  Per…

    Brad and Jen’s Honeymoon Hotel

    ‘ As I mentioned in yesterday’”‘”‘s post, this weekend was a big one for me.  The biggest perhaps!   My boyfriend (of over eight and a half years!!) finally popped the question!!!!!!!!!!!  🙂   And I, of course, said yes!  This changes things quite a bit for me, as from now on I will no longer be dragging…

    As If!

  • The Last Bookstore from “Gone Girl”

    The Last Bookstore from “Gone Girl”

    ‘ I love bookstores – and books.  Actual books, not the digitized versions.  You will never catch me reading on a Kindle.  I like the feel of a book in my hands, the physical act of turning the pages and the smell.  I love, love, love the smell of books.  The Grim Cheaper always makes…

    Ray Raymond and Dorothy MacKaye’s Former House

    ‘ I have been told that I am ridiculously easy to buy presents for.  Anything pink or sparkly, dainty and gold, or having to do with Los Angeles automatically fits the bill.  Some gifts are so perfectly suited to me when it comes to the latter category, in fact, that I have received them on…
