Adventures with Dr. Lady Cutie Troublemaker

Life is in flux BIG TIME these days. I want to keep in touch with all of my peeps. The Internet is this beautiful thing. I can move to a brand new city and still stay in easy, near-daily contact with the people I love. When I feel connected to the people in my life that matter, I am unstoppable!

I’m Green With Envy

I’m green with envy… of all my friends in Boston. I’m going to have to get Jon to go for me. Damn. DAMN! I can’t believe I’ll miss this reunion. Kristin and Tanya, together again. Damn. DAMN!!!

On Saturday, October 6th, 2007, Throwing Muses co-founders (and stepsisters) Kristin Hersh and Tanya Donelly will perform together on stage at our beloved Brattle Theatre here in Cambridge, Massachusetts. For two separate shows, each will play a solo set, followed by a set together, which will no doubt include old (and maybe new?) Muses songs. Amazing… [More]

Thanks, Brad, for posting this. By the way, I hate you!!

Serenity Now!

By Abby at 2:53 pm on Thursday, June 21, 2007

All that Firefly viewing was not in vain! Tonight I’m going to see the screening of Serenity. I saw today on Bostonist that the exact same event is taking place there at the Coolidge Corner Theatre. I might actually have the exact same plans if I still lived there!

In preparation for the event, I took a very useful and important (OK, not really) quiz. Here are the results:

You are Malcolm Reynolds (Captain)

Malcolm Reynolds (Captain)

70%
Inara Serra (Companion)
55%
Derrial Book (Shepherd)
35%
Wash (Ship Pilot)
25%
Jayne Cobb (Mercenary)
15%
A Reaver (Cannibal)

Honest and a defender of the innocent. You sometimes make mistakes in judgment but you are generally good and would protect your crew from harm.

That’s My Girl!

By Abby at 5:12 pm on Tuesday, May 22, 2007

Kristin has submitted her first post as MBTA writer for Bostonist. I’m so proud! She’s perfect. PERFECT! And she is working with (ish) Jon, another close friend and ones of my favorite people. Yay! This is my favorite line from the post:

Finally, passengers managed to catch a conductors’ attention by banging on windows, shouting and pressing their sad little faces against the glass.

Haha!

Digg it!

Aqua Teen Hunger Force Strikes Boston

By Abby at 12:58 pm on Thursday, February 1, 2007

There was a bit of a disaster in Boston yesterday… well, sort of. Either that, or a marketing campaign gone horribly awry…

OR DID IT?!

Now even my mother knows what Aqua Teen Hunger Force is!

Here is a video of the guys hanging the offending objects:

Here’s the official apology on Adult Swim:

If you want to see the chronology of reports go from serious to not-so-serious over the course of yesterday, check out Bostonist or Universal Hub

Speaking of things striking places, snow struck Raleigh today:
