My hubby and I are huge movie buffs - many Friday nights are been spent on an old fashioned dinner and a movie date, and we’ll usually snuggle up to a DVD / On-Demand flick at least once a week.
So it goes without saying that once the nominations for the Oscars come out, we’re upping our movie time so that we can choose the right film for our ballots (My vote is for The Artist...

But I always seek projects that I just love the writing, because the good writing on a project will alleviate the need for an actor to act. I remember one of the great things I read about David Mamet saying was that an actor doesn’t really need to act - that a good film with good writing and good…

There is something about hearing the lyrics your love will be safe with me on vinyl. Damn.
Honestly...
It has been to long since i’ve had a good, healthy, fun, on cloud nine, butterflies inducing crush.
Hopefully I can meet some new Chicago men soon. I really just want to feel giddy about learning about someone new.

Oh the things we do for our parents.
How did I get stuck with writing the family newsletter the past six years?
… Oh, can you guess what my highlight of the year? Sure I graduated college, won three film festivals, was a bridesmaid, lived on the beach during a hurricane and got promoted.
Yet seeing Bon Iver in concert might trump these things.
Try and tell me my priorities are out of whack, just try.
Dear Chicago,
I am trying to remember the last Monday you haven’t rained… I think it was in late August.
This weather is making it really hard to be productive on my day off.
Love, Allie
