Strange What Love Does: Two Movies
http://strangewhatlovedoes.blogspot.com/2009/02/two-movies.html
Strange What Love Does. A woman in trouble with culture. Friday, February 6, 2009. Last week, after what I think was exactly a calendar year of not going to the Film Forum. For no other reason than sheer laziness (well, also not living in NYC for five months of 2008), I saw two films at the Film Forum. They were Silent Light. Directed by Carlos Reygadas, and Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles. Directed by Chantal Akerman. It was my first time seeing both movies. But it too has a deep lov...

http://strangewhatlovedoes.blogspot.com/2009/09/against-irony-many-virtues-of-jane.html
Strange What Love Does. A woman in trouble with culture. Friday, September 11, 2009. Against Irony: The Many Virtues of Jane Campion's Bright Star. In Jane Campion's Bright Star. That's Hammershøi's Interior With Young Woman from Behind. And Hopper's Morning Sun. In order, above. Like my other favorite films of recent memory - Silent Light. Which I reviewed together here). A more authentic experience. This film captures the exhausting length of life with elegance and wit. Is Campions best work even though.

Strange What Love Does: December 2009
http://strangewhatlovedoes.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Strange What Love Does. A woman in trouble with culture. Thursday, December 17, 2009. What, exactly, is the point - or the merit - of Helen Simpson's short story "Diary of An Interesting Year," featured in The New Yorker. Certainly its publication has something to do with the flailing Copenhagen talks, rechristened "Nopenhagen" from "Hopenhagen" by various parties. And now I've been upset by this story, too. And The Year of the Flood. Now number three) - that is to say, occasionally shot through with bla...

Strange What Love Does: The Racial Politics of District 9
http://strangewhatlovedoes.blogspot.com/2009/09/racial-politics-of-district-9.html
Strange What Love Does. A woman in trouble with culture. Tuesday, September 8, 2009. The Racial Politics of District 9. Warning: Definite spoilers ahead. As I watched Winkus Van De Merwe, the titular anti-hero of Neil Blomkamp's feature District 9. Complaint about the film's inexplicable switch from straightforward fake-documentary to first-person narrative film. Still, I enjoyed District 9. And see how much further Blomkamp can take his allegory. December 18, 2009 at 1:29 PM. I Had It Bad Reading Series.

A working mom. A lawyer. A wife. Watch me try to keep it together without the aid of pharmaceuticals. Friday, August 29, 2008. Back at work today, counting the hours 'til I hopefully get a nice message from my boss's boss's boss about how we work so hard, we should just go home early. Speaking of my children, here are some things I never want to hear my 3 year old say again:. Ew, Daddy, don't LICK mommy.". Wednesday, August 27, 2008. I do everything I should to deal with it all; exercise, yoga, meditatio...

http://wackymindblog.blogspot.com/2009/10/entry-20-gatorade-experiment.html
A day in the life. a wacky mind! A diary; thoughts, opinions, memories, inspiration and meaningless nonsense! Maybe some not so meaningless stuff, a recipe here and there, or a wild story from the past. Friday, October 16, 2009. Entry 20-The Gatorade Experiment. I was burning the midnight oil last night til 1:30 am reading up on DIY kitchen renovations. I Have not broken the 10lb mark (just once, yippee. However, I downed some skirt steak. But I also ate chocolate. Even know WHEN it was from, maybe June?

A working mom. A lawyer. A wife. Watch me try to keep it together without the aid of pharmaceuticals. Wednesday, June 20, 2007. I was just telling my like-minded friends at work yesterday, how torn I am about the prospects in '08. One speaks to my heart, and one to my head. Then one does something like this which is so fun, plus. Bill! I know it's all over the place this morning, but for a political person and a Sopranos fan, it's pretty cute: www.hillaryclinton.com Click on the video. Enjoy.

bridge and tunneled: June 2006
http://bridgeandtunneled.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 26, 2006. Marsha and I spent a good chunk of the weekend driving. The weather yesterday was miserable; it poured for about 200 straight miles along I-81 and I almost skidded off the road at one point. Happily, we made it back fine, just in time to watch the Yankees get shut out by some no-name Marlin rookie. Posted by T.S. @ 8:48 AM. Thursday, June 22, 2006. I'm going home with Marsha this weekend for her mom's birthday and her folks' anniversary, so I'm not sure when I'll get to write a ful...
