Something else for you to read because I am too busy watching The Jane Austen Book Club CNN to post a blog today.

Here is a review I wrote about an awesome movie called Son of Rambow.

You should all go to see it. And while you’re at the theater you should get a giant pretzel and a Diet Coke and pretend you are me. Wouldn’t that be creepy? Wouldn’t you like that?

Also, here.


Isn’t impressed with my “writing”.

he may not be totally enthralled by your “writing,” but at least arthur is not getting violated by a stuffed squirrel.

I’m definitely going to go see this movie and pretend I’m you. I’ll let you know if I end up funnier (I hope so!) Also, you are so right on, every guy I know has a mancrush on somebody. Charlie would kill me for saying this, but I think he’s developing a mancrush on Jason Taylor.

Silja thinks I have a man-crush on Dwight Howard. Totally sick and wrong.

I mean, they guy’s only 22 and I’m nowhere near my midlife crisis yet.

$1,000 if you can tell us who Dwight Howard is Kiala. No cheating.

Is he a black person? President of the black people? Er, the NAACP?

My cat is never impressed with anything I do either. I try and I try, but no.

God DAMMIT! I’m always logged on as my stupid husband.

That was me just then. Not him. He’s always taking credit for stuff I say.

That totally happens to me all the time, Crissy. I would change it for you but then no one would understand your second comment. I guess I could just delete your second comment…I HAVE SO MUCH POWER RIGHT NOW.

I’ll just leave it.

You always get to be the exactest!

I love that you wrote fuck and boner. It made me giddy like that one time in biology when the teacher said beaver. I don’t know if that happened. What I remember is a guy who was a sponsored skater telling me what a daisy chain was. So it’s like that moment, except yours is better because you published it!

Why can’t we leave comments on the Merc’s website?

I don’t know.

Maybe we should blame Ferik Penrickson.

(NO! He is a nice young man who lets me write silly things about boners. Let’s blame him anyway.)

President of the black people?

Hahahaha

awesome.

im a little confused because i read your review, then searched around the site a bit, and its EXACTLY like seattle’s The Stranger. You even have the same cartoons as our “I, Annoymous.” I like The Stranger so its cool, but im going to assume you guys stole it from us and I dont like that. Cause of course ours in the original.

13 kiala { 05.09.08 at 11:49 am }

They’re owned by the same people. It’s like their littler, more retarded sister.

I MEAN BETTER. (Keep sending me money Mercury!)

14 Kristen { 05.09.08 at 3:52 pm }

I just got a chance to read your review.

Now that’s the kind of shit I dream of being paid to write!

I so want your job right now it’s not even funny. We never get to say boner where I work.

I love cats largely because of their expressions - like that one. also because they are soft and cuddly and just all-around so much better than dogs (…so sue me).
