The New York Times: Sex and the City Movie Review →
“Back in Season 3 Carrie asked, “Are we getting wiser, or just older?” The ideal, of course, is to do both. There is something depressingly stunted about this movie; something desperate too. It isn’t that Carrie has grown older or overly familiar. It’s that awash in materialism and narcissism, a cloth flower pinned to her dress where cool chicks wear their Obama buttons, this It Girl has become...

4. No problem here. 5. Still doing this… well into “real” life. 3 a.m. is my normal bedtime. 7. Mana concert. Sophomore year, 2002. 10. ooops! 25. No problem here. 29. Gave a shot, I still know I’m right. 32. Again, no problem here. 41. DEFINITELY accomplished this. 45. ☺ 47. ☺ 50. I feel strongly that without time off between high school and college, who can actually understand this? And,...

Markdown now supported via email, mobile
Although this doesn’t actually make sense to me… I have the feeling something about this will make it possible to indicate the point at which a text message stops being a header and starts being a body. But then again, maybe not. I’m a learn by examples type of gal. When sending Tumblr a mobile email post, you can now optionally include Markdown syntax to create rich text...

Meet Ella Sherman of Singapore. She paid $19,000 on eBay to be just like Carrie Bradshaw. She was going to get into the Sex And The City movie premier and after-party, stay for five nights in New York in a sexy hotel, shop at Jimmy Choo, hang in an exclusive club and carry on an emotionally unfulfilling affair with Mikhail Baryshnikov. Some money was going to go to charity in her name. But the...

We thought we would have a nice picnic in Central Park…instead AC ended up with an upset stomach, a bee sting & bird poop on his head. POOR GUY!
Morty & Obama.
After receiving an honorary degree, President of Williams College Morton Schapiro poked fun at both the event’s heightened security and the rivalry between Williams and Wesleyan. “I bet you had no idea that the president of Williams traveled with so much Secret Service,” he said. - The Wesleyan Argus

"real" satc gossip
I work at a theater. A co-worker of mine has a friend who works for a theater in Chicago. Apparently, this theater in Chicago was working with Julie Halston—who plays Bitsy von Muffling in SATC. Apparently, SATC:The Movie had a 3-month hiatus to allow THREE of the FOUR women to recover from their face lifts. Admittedly, that’s quite a few “he said, she saids” … but...

– Puerto Rico’s Moment in the Sun - New York Times
"How in the world did this happen?" →
Puerto Rico’s formal role in the process is indeed weighty. Its 63 voting delegates — 55 elected ones and eight superdelegates — at the Democratic National Convention in Denver this summer will outnumber delegations from more than half the states (including Kentucky and Oregon) and the District of Columbia. Yet Puerto Rico does not have a vote in the Electoral College, nor will its 2.5 million...

man crush
ac: I had an amazing hour-long conversation with prof.[redacted] today.
me: Awesome. What did you talk about?
ac: I just want to know all her stories about clerking for the Supreme Court. I think I have the equivalent of man-crush on her.
me: So... since she's a woman, doesn't that make it a regular crush?
ac: No it's different. A man-crush is like an intellectual crush on someone.
me: Wait. Isn't that really sexist?! You can't have a man-crush on a woman?
ac: Agh, no! You know what I mean.
Because in NYC, every move you make is a temporary situation until you have a...

election08: Mark McKinnon is the lead media consultant for John McCain and will step down from that role in the coming days. McKinnon made a pledge last year that he would not campaign against Barack Obama should he become the Democratic nominee. In an interview last year McKinnon said, “I just don’t want to work against an Obama candidacy…[electing Obama] would send a great message to the...
I did not get selected for a jury…yipeeeeeeeee! The week only has three days remaining & Monday is a holiday. Lots to be happy about.
While I was at jury duty today, I realized that it may have been the only time in my New York City years that I was completely surrounded by an entire room of Manhattanites. I can’t think of another space in the city where there aren’t a. tons of tourists, and b. people from the boroughs & Jersey. It was odd. Day two tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
Sitting next to the most annoying girl. If we both are chosen, it will be horrible.
