A Note: I Can't Quit You, Grey

The Grey I'm referring to is not Meredith Grey, but the elusive "50 Shades of..." Christian Grey, a fictional sadist that I cannot get out of my mind. It took me 8 days to plow through 50 Shades of Grey often dropping E.L. James' 400+ whopper on the floor next to me bed as my eyes drooped shut. It took me 7 of those 8 days to realize the front cover of the book is a Gray tie.

Nonetheless, I've had a little over a week to rest and recuperate from my experience with the elusive billionaire playboy CEO, and I ended up walking out of Target with book 2: Fifty Shades Darker. It nearly called to me as I walked by the book section, and with the attractive price of 12 fifty-something, (this week only), I'll soon be back in the land of mental torment.

Don't mistake me, I liked 50 shades, but I have a few thoughts. First of all, I want to shake Anastasia and tell her (and her Inner Goddess) that this relationship is neither healthy or normal. Also, the girl needs to lay off her English Breakfast Tea a bit.... the amount of caffeine she must have coursing through her veins at all times would make it impossible to function.

I also want to thank my friend for likening me to Katherine Kavanaugh the other night. Katherine, while being a devoted friend and complete busybody, needs to take a chill pill. And as for Grey, he's hot and a genius, but he's cray-cray. And can anyone explain how Anastasia attends Washington State University in Portland? Is there a Portland, WA, I don't know about?

A Note to Self: Stop Downloading Every Free Itunes Song

Sometimes I look through my ipod and go, this is a cool song I downloaded for free (ex: Bulletproof by La Roux or Only Fooling Myself by Kate Vogele). Sometimes I cringe and delete.

The One, The Only, The Great Gatsby

     He was the original forbidden fallen hero, the Edward Cullen darkness and Dylan McKay "devil may care" bad boy, and they called him Gatsby. I usually don't go down for Baz Lurman movies. I've never esat through an entire viewing of Moulin Rouge or Romeo + Juliet (ha, shocker), but I am so pumped for the reboot of  The Great Gatsby. Maybe I just love the idea of being stuck in the wild 20's, but it's intoxicatingly fun. Can you think of someone better to be Gatsby than Leo? And Tobey Maguire (glad to see the guy working again) as the bumbling narrator Nick? This is gonna kick butt! I can't remember the last time I was so excited about a movie.
