embarassing pursuits - You come to realise that you have a strange approach to scholarship when you're researching Barry Manilow and the textual significance of Mandy. It's for the paper I'm delivering at the BuffyDownunder convention on Sunday. And it's a legitimate enquiry... (15:29 | 3 Comments)

questions and non answers - 1. why oh why does my heart have to be broken? The Belle and Seb site quotes the ticket price for the melbourne gigs at $60 (pending booking charges). Ticketmaster has the audacity to bump that up to $73. Too... (13:24 | 7 Comments)

Sirkian gestures - I watched Imitation of Life again today and had forgotten how much I like it. Really, I'm such a sucker for dramatic postures, sweeping orchestration and deliberate (and overt) emotional manipulation. So clearly Douglas Sirk melodramas are about as... (19:24 | 0 Comments)

25 candles... - ... not quite the same ring to it, huh? But there it is. I turned 25 on Thursday and Luke and I spent the day cavorting around town. Indulging in foodstuffs (our favourites) and meeting up with Matthew and Denise.... (18:46 | 2 Comments)
