What's new and/or interesting on TV this week.

Back when I had more time to write, I had a postcard-sized red leatherbound book that fit neatly into my bag. When random things happened I'd jot them down for use in a short story at a later date. Somewhere in my move, I lost my idea book. Can't put random thoughts on my blog anymore because all my craziness is on display, only to be judged by random Mystalkers.

After the jump, check out a few day-to-day fashion tips that will ensure your attire doesn’t make people think of you as something you’re not – namely, ill-mannered.

A girl can never have too many pairs of Chucks, so we are thinking of adding this pair to our collection.
