TWO THINGS I GET CONFUSED

Taylor Swift & Taylor Lautner

I still did not know who Taylor Lautner was until I did a google just now. Oh TWILIGHT? That makes sense. Did you know he is not only an actor, voice actor and model but a MARTIAL ARTIST? Haha. Talk about a quadruple threat.

Taylor Swift is 3 years old than Lautner. She has also won a lot more awards than him and been in an episode of CSI? Of course. I am not sure I know any of her songs but I'm sure it wouldn't be the worst, I could not be more indifferent towards Miss Swift, IF THAT IS HER REAL NAME. Oh it is.

Haha, never forget

Channing Tatum & Stockard Channing

Ok I do know exactly who Stockard Channing (SURPRISE NOT HER REAL NAME) is but I have no idea about Tatum, so whenever I hear that name I immediately thing of Mrs First Lady Bartlet before my brain catches up to realise noooo that is not right. Now after googling Channing Tatum I still have NO idea who he is. I have never seen that face in my entire life! He also appears to be into the martial arts. What is going on there? His website is called Channing Tatum Unwrapped ewww.

FUN FACT! Stockard Channing was in a 1998 film called TWILIGHT. Full circle!

These guys! 

IN SUMMATION: Matt Saracen was in a Taylor Swift film clip (along with her kitten, named after Grey's Anatomy, all of this is in her "Personal Life" section of Wikipedia why??) but she also dated John Mayer and that made me feel gross? Stockard Channing 4 EVA.

Happy Melbiversary To Me

This weekend marks my two years of living in Melbourne and to celebrate I did three of my favourite living in Melbourne activities:

Drank some coffees at Auction Rooms
Went out for dinner at Rumi (still the best)
Carried an umbrella around and didn't get rained on

LOVE YOU MELBO
XOXO

Baltimore

So last month I saw Ira Glass do a thing, I don't know really how to describe it.. a presentation? Performance? Delightful evening? Well whatever it was exactly, it was super great and definitely delightful, and I learnt that he is from Baltimore. So that night I did internally declare he would be my favourite thing to come out of Baltimore. But then I remembered some other things, and then I did some internetting, and discovered a few others. AND SO I PRESENT TO YOU, INTERNET, MY TOP 7 THINGS OUTTA BALTIMORE. (In no real order, don't make me choose)

Ira Glass Aw I want to keep you in a box

John Waters I read your book last year and it was very enjoyable

The Wire derrrr is it time for us to meet again?

David Byrne you delightful nutbar I should read that bicycle book of yours

Kevin Clash I also recently watched the documentary about this guy (Elmo) and it was great!

Penn Badgley haha just jokes

Parker Posey I was in the middle of saying "where are you!?" and then I discovered you have something coming out soon! I forget what, but good job for still being around! Remember when you dated Ryan Adams? Geez.

Bonus Round Kathleen Turner mostly for high school memories (why was she a huge joke among our circle? The Virgin Suicides? Serial Mom? Who knows).

I went to Baltimore for a day in 2008 and it was a weird place hey.

January

YOU GUYS JANUARY IS OVER! HERE IS WHAT HAPPENED

I drank 70 cups of coffee: 31 plunger, 26 flat whites, 6 short macs,  5 aeropress, 1 stove top and 1 instant (??).

I watched 53 episodes of television: 20 of The Sopranos, 6 Curb Your Enthusiasms, 5 Top Chefs, 4 30 Rocks, 3 Pan Ams, 2 SNL Specials, 2 Design Stars, 2 Parks and Recreations, 2 Seinfelds, 2 Mad Mens, 2 of The Office (UK), 1 Check It Out with Dr Steve Brule, 1 Nature's Miracle Babies, 1 Up All Night and 3/4 of a terrible episode of The Playboy Club.

I went to the cinema four times: (Melancholia, Being Elmo, Mars and The Interrupters) and watched 4 movies from the comfort of my own couch: Mean Girls, Lars and the Real Girl, Bridesmaids & Passenger Side.

I also paid dollars to see people perform things: Fleet Foxes! David Sedaris! Ira Glass! Best Coast! Kanye West!

Other things: Saw Tasmania (special extra mention to MONA OMG), went to Attica, read Mindy Kaling's Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (which was great!), did not get a haircut. 

Everything was mostly super great! Congratulations January you passed with flying colours. I do need a haircut though. Also next month I will attempt pretty pictures to accompany these tedious lists.
