[Welcome to my Weekly Love List, a list on all things I love. Because if I love them, well, obviously you should love them too. As the Backstreet Boys song says (and yes, I am actually quoting them) “My Love is All I Have To Give.” So with that throwback, here are this week’s list-worthy things…]
There is nothing I love more than a good laugh. And more importantly, a good laugh when I’m bored. at work. at home. on a sunday. in an airport. Thanks to the internet gods of the world, there is no shortage of things that can make us laugh. A You Tube Video, a website where people share their horror stories (which are always funny) or a sight meant to be serious but makes you wonder, “is this for REALZ?”
And boy do I love it all.
So here are 5 of my favorite online sites that make me go hahaha. They make me LOL and sometimes even ROFL. Seriously. They are my go-to’s when I’m about to kill myself (or someone else) out of stress, or boredem, or a lack of desire to be productive. So, to sum that up, I pretty much visit these sites every day.
1) fmylife.com. Today, I discovered a site that I have become so addicted to that I’ve completely stopped productivity in all areas of my life. Well, except my love life – that’s always lacked productivity. FML.
In all seriousness: you will die over other people’s horrible mishaps – true or not. This site makes me feel a whole lot better about the time someone once asked me if I was pregnant… Read More »

1. Pumpkin Mousse. It may be post-Thanksgiving but while the rest of the world has moved on to egg-nog or latkes, I’m more like Ross Gellar and still craving Thanksgiving leftovers. So if you still need something to be thankful for make this low fat amazing pumpkin mousse and then thank me later.
What you need: 2 Packets instant fat free/sugar free vanilla pudding, 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice, 2 cups skim milk, one 15 ounce can of pumpkin, and one tub of fat-free Cool Whip. Make the pudding with the milk and once it’s ready, fold in the other ingredients, stick it in the fridge, maybe throw some ginger snaps on top and you’ve got yourself some guilt free leftovers.
2. While I may not love Miley Cyrus, I love this girl who loves Miley Cyrus. Seriously, over 1 million hits, tons of tribute vids back, and over 12 different videos. And those special effects? Ahhhmazing. Check out her version of Disturbia too… I sort of want to be her best friend.
3. Britney Spears’ comeback. I know, I’m a sucker like everyone else, but that magazine cover? The vid? I’ve been working out to old school Brit all week and I’m just rooting that our favorite baldie makes this comeback big (not lame-o like the last one). I know you are all excited for the documentary tomorrow night. Watch it with some pumpkin mousse for a double dose of love. Read More »
[Last week, I brought you the first edition of my Weekly Love List, but as the Backstreet Boys song says (and yes I am actually quoting them) "My Love is All I Have To Give." So with that, here are this week's list-worthy things...]
1) The Rachel Zoe Project. I don’t know if it’s her voice, her constant addiction to her Tea from Starbucks, her over-sized furs or the bones jutting out of her body – but there is something so addicting about Rachel Zoe. The hour always delivers entertaining ridiculousness, amazing fashion (that if given the choice to own all that vintage-ness or have my way with Brad Pitt — I would choose the former), and let us not forget her assistant Brad. Anyway, I find myself parked on my couch, Venti Tea in tow every week.
2) Canvas photos. Such a great way to make your fav pics pretty artwork, but chose wisely; that photo of you doing a keg stand from last week’s football game may not be the best choice to be printed in black and white and hung on your wall as artwork. But then again — it could be AWESOME. (Or, if you’re watching too much Rachel Zoe: “I Die”) Read More »
I was hangin’ out last night, watching Tori and Dean, Home Sweet Hollywood (OMG…did I just admit that?) when I got a text from my brother. He had just turned on the news and heard that Estelle Getty – the one and only Sophia from Sicily – had passed away.
Golden Girls was one of my all-time favorite shows growing up, and even more so now that I actually understand all the jokes. It was Boca Raton’s answer to Sex and the City…before Carrie Bradshaw was even tapping away on her MacBook. It was way ahead of its time, and has since stood the test of time. Not the fashion, maybe, but the content for sure.
Of course, Sophia wasn’t Getty’s only role. This woman was a comedic genius and definitely someone I have always looked up to (metaphorically, of course). I spent all morning looking for funny old videos of her career on YouTube (because my DVD collection of the entire Golden Girls series isn’t enough), but instead found a bunch of crazy people making sad montages set to depressing tunes. It just didn’t seem to fit; this woman spent her life making us laugh. Why should we remember her with tears?
Then I found this gem. Estelle Getty at her finest. God, I love this woman.
So, when you’ve got tons of money, a serious addiction to drugs, a husband who’s in jail, a closet full of jean shorts from the Limited Too, and a friend named Pete “incredibly dirty” Doherty, what do you spend your afternoon doing?
…playing with day old baby mice and recording it on YouTube.
(All the while high as a f*cking high ass kite)
I’m sorry if this video disturbs anyone. It kinda disturbs me. Mostly because baby mice are freaky looking and I’m afraid that Winehouse and Doherty and gonna pull a Lenny (a la Of Mice and Men) and somehow pet those poor things to death.
See if you can keep yourself from saying No, No, No and stomach the whole video.
Okay, so it’s Wednesday, which is halfway through the week but not halfway enough. Also, my biorhythms have been totally scraping the bottom of the barrel lately, and the full moon last night had me up until 2 AM, staring at a tiny crack in my ceiling, mentally computing how months it’s been since I spent time sleeping next to someone who wasn’t my old, tattered teddy bear.
(And no, I will not reveal the heinous amount of time)
On the off chance there are other girls feeling the way I do today, I decided to post this video of half-naked Brazilian dudes doing a dance that has apparently taken over the country called the Funk da Cueca.
Considering the amount of bouncing that’s going on, I can’t decide if this is actual porn or not, but really, after an 8 hour day, who cares?
In her new video, Ashlee Simpson is definitely channeling Gwen Stefani. Do you love it or hate it? Let us know in the comments and get Ashlee’s newest single here!
