Cyril is a Pionus parrot. Check out those gorgeous feathers! I don’t know her very well and I don’t know Pionus parrots very well. But in the interest of getting outside of my comfort zone, I was working in her room tonight. She made… Continue Reading “At the Refuge – Cyril”
She stopped reading the books and cursed Jo Rowling’s name the moment a certain someone that we all loved got avada kedevra’d (I don’t remember how to spell that) in Book 5. I like that this is more creepy than mind-blowing.
It is a testament to my enduring immaturity that the word “Boring” is one of my more frequent exclamations. I even say it to my boss. I have been careful, however, not to use it in front of my nephew. Because the only thing… Continue Reading “I Didn’t Do It!”

I read the Tribune, so I missed Roger Ebert’s blog at the Sun Times on the “new direction” of his show, At the Movies (or whatever they call it these days). You can read it here. I remember when Gene Siskel died, in early… Continue Reading “At the Movies: The Balcony is Closed”
Last weekend, I spent Sunday afternoon removing every last thing from the cabinets and shelves. I left for Washington Monday morning, to minimize the number of days I would have to (gasp) share a bathroom with another human being. When I returned Thursday night,… Continue Reading “What is the Centerpiece of the Bathroom?”
Most of my friends already know about this website, but for those that don’t use it: The Internet Movie Database is the official data source for all things Hollywood. It covers television as well as film. Have you ever found yourself watching a movie… Continue Reading “IMDb.com”
