    Bad Day!

    ‘ This past Friday was an exceptionally bad day for me and my family.  Not only did I have to take my dad to the emergency room, but while we were there we received a phone call that my uncle was being rushed into the OR for an emergency bypass surgery – it ended up…

    Taking Today and Tomorrow Off

    ‘ My dad had surgery yesterday (fingers crossed that this one will be successful!) and, because I am spending the next few days in the desert with him, I will not have any new blogs to post today or Thursday and, possibly, Friday. I do have a funny stalking anecdote to share, though – one…

    Simon Baker’s Former House

    ‘ While doing some cyberstalking on fave website Virtual Globetrotting a few weeks back, I came across this post listing the address of a Santa Monica home which formerly belonged to cutie Mentalist star – and my latest celebrity crush – Simon Baker and I just about keeled over from excitement.  So, when my dad…

  • Seattle’s Fairmont Olympic Hotel

    Seattle’s Fairmont Olympic Hotel

    ‘ Another location that I stalked back in May while visiting the Pacific Northwest was the famous Fairmont Olympic Hotel located in Downtown Seattle.  The Olympic is a landmark Seattle building that has appeared in countless productions over the years and has played host to dozens of celebrities in its almost ninety-year history, so there…

    The Ambassador Hotel

    ‘ Katharine Hepburn once said, “I have many regrets and I’”‘”‘m sure everyone does. The stupid things you do, you regret . . . if you have any sense.” Katharine was right. One of my biggest regrets in life is that I never got to see the Ambassador Hotel in person before it was torn…

    Celebrity Jury Duty

    ‘ Last September I was called to report for jury duty at the Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center in Downtown Los Angeles. As you can probably guess, I was not too excited for this venture. I perked up, though, when on my first day of service, I arrived at the courthouse to see a…

    Stalking In Pink

    ‘ Got a challenge the other day from Niki all the way over in Greece to stalk some of the locations from her favorite 80s flick Pretty In Pink. I have to admit that before I got the challenge I had never actually seen the movie, so this week I made a special trip to…

    The HMS Bounty Bar and Restaurant from “Mad Men”

    ‘ Another stalking stop on the Grim Cheaper’s Valentine’s Day scavenger hunt around Los Angeles that we embarked upon this past February was the historic Koreatown eatery known as the HMS Bounty Bar and Restaurant.  And while I had known about the watering hole’s vast history and longtime celebrity clientele before we dined there, up…

  • The Starbucks from “The Morning Show”

    The Starbucks from “The Morning Show”

    ‘ I love a good Starbucks location!  I mean, what’s better than stalking and being able to pick up a great cup of coffee at the same time?  So I was thrilled to recognize an outpost of the java giant while watching the fifth episode of The Morning Show, titled “No One’s Gonna Harm You,…

    Elvis Presley’s Honeymoon Hideaway

    ‘ While visiting my parents in the Coachella Valley last month, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, suggested that I do a re-stalk of the desert home where Elvis Presley and his new bride, Priscilla, spent their honeymoon in 1967.  I had originally stalked and blogged about the property way back in March 2008, when my website was…
