There's lots of fun, quirky, and geeky stuff out there. I write about it.
To Boldly Go In Oklahoma, we have this great media company, This Land Press, that tells the stories of our state that don’t get a lot of attention. Through them, I’m learning a lot about the place I’ve spent more than half my life. For example, today, I discovered that there […]
Read More To Boldly GoLadies and Gentlemen, my work week is at an end. Tonight I celebrate my father’s birthday. (Happy birthday, Dad!!) We’ll have tasty Mexican food (or as Mexican as Tulsa really gets, which is not actually all that Mexican. Also, if you know where I can get real Mexican food in Tulsa, let me know.) laugh, […]
Read More Still Happy!Troye Sivan came to my attention through John Green’s Facebook page. Has a great song, titled “The Fault in Our Stars”, and it’s inspired by Green’s The Fault in Our Stars. If you haven’t read this book, go do it! It is a fantastic book, and the song is pretty amazing too. Here’s the best […]
Read More Great Song For A Good CauseMental Floss sent me 23 Fun Facts About Firefly today. Now, I want to watch Firefly…and Serenity…again. After a rather hectic few weeks, I think that is just what I’ll do this weekend…or a Hobbit marathon. The Desolation of Smaug released on video this week, a marathon of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug […]
Read More Decisions, DecisionsThe muppets have always been a staple in my life. Has anybody seen this yet? It looks pretty awesome. ‘Til next time, Jessica
Read More Cameos in Muppets Most WantedThis was my first Wes Anderson experience. Well, not actually. Apparently he’s also directed several commercials. You can watch those here. (Thank you Mental Floss.) Basically I went to see this because I thought it was hilarious when Ralph Fiennes ran away when the police accused him of murder. (It’s the little things that make […]
Read More The Grand Budapest HotelAugust: Osage County began life as a Pulitzer Prize and Tony award-winning play written by Tulsa’s own Tracy Letts. Letts also wrote the screenplay, so I had no worries about the continuity between the play and the movie. The cast is absolutely stellar, and there was no doubt these actors would pull the best from the script. […]
Read More August: Osage County: A Film ReviewI know. I know. It is a bit repetitive, but I can’t stop singing this song! It’s like a Pavlovian response now. I realize it’s Friday, and the song starts playing in my head. What can you do but pass it on? (I also think of the movie Friday. “You ain’t got no job…” Every. Time.) […]
Read More Here’s My Weekend…http://youtu.be/pTZ2Tp9yXyM Hmmm…interesting. Very interesting. As I’m just beginning to explore the world of comic books, I’m not familiar with Guardians of the Galaxy, but this looks fun. Speaking of comic books….Whew! I thought I’d lost it. The Watchmen is next up on my reading list. Any other recommendations for me? Please and thank you! ‘Til […]
Read More Guardians of the Galaxy TrailerI got a text just before we arrived at Circle Cinema for the Nation Theatre Live broadcast of Coriolanus starring Tom Hiddleston as Caius Martius Coriolanus and Mark Gatiss as Menenius. “It’s packed already,” the text read. Truthfully, I wondered how my friend defined “packed”. Every show I’d seen to that point had filled maybe half the […]
