Every once in a while I tend to go a bit manic with my library’s reserve online option. Of course, all of the books are usually read to be picked up right around the same time and then I’ve got a stack of books all due back by the same due date.

you’re like a pop-up book from hell

I usually start out with something like 21 or 22 shows, but that quickly [...]

creeepy
Thanks to Kristen Bell and Chris Lowell, every time I say the word “creepy” — and that’s a lot, since I have this inexplicable fondness for the word — I picture that hilariously awesome VM promo they did last year where they interviewed each other and giggled for the better part of five minutes. And [...]
