i'm blogging (briefly) today because it is the 35th anniversary of roe v. wade and i think that's pretty awesome. what's not awesome is that abortion remains possibly the single most emotional, divisive and manipulated issue in american politics today.

what's also not awesome is that a lot of people are hellbent on making the most personal of choices for other people in a misguided attempt to eliminate a practice as old as humanity itself, and one which will never, ever go away. when these people win, women die, end of story.

if you are one of the lucky women who has access to contraceptives, abortion and accurate information about reproduction, as well as the financial resources to obtain these things, be thankful today. even if you have never had an abortion. even if you never would. even if you think it's kind of uncomfortable and icky to think about and you don't think it's the right thing for you to do. be thankful that you get to make that decision for yourself. i am.

i'm excited for point break live tonight!

it is a live stage adaptation of the 1991 keanu reeves/patrick swayze awesomely bad film and they use an audience member to play keanu's part (ex-football playing top law-school-grad-turned-FBI-agent johnny utah) and that person reads the entire script from cue cards all night. more convincing than keanu? probably.

this should bring the LOLZ.

juno = best movie

go see it now!

this is ruining my life, or at least my eyesight. the last thing i want to do when i get home from work is sit in front of a computer, but i can't stop until i've had every word this game can throw at me. i'm at level 49.

sunset junction pics forthcoming.

but in the meantime, this has got to be the most entertaining tv moment i've witnessed in years. mario lopez is a true american hero for making it through that without laughing.

woohoo sunset junction tomorrow!
i really hope it doesn't suck.
