It’s Back! Your Dancing with the Stars Recap

O.M.G. I can’t believe DWTS is finally back! And I really think I’m gonna like this cast – Baby from Dirty Dancing. Audrina from The Hills. The Situation. The Hoff. Florence Henderson! I mean, the list goes on and on. I still haven’t totally decided who I want to win, but I’m thinking Jennifer Grey, only because “no one puts Baby in the corner.” Seriously. They just don’t.

Tonight’s dances are the Cha-cha-cha and the Viennese Waltz. I really don’t like the Viennese Waltz. At all. But the Cha-cha-cha is my favorite dance of all. That, and the PASO Doble (emphasis on the Paso).

First off – what is Brooke Burke wearing? Put some clothes on Brooke. Seriously. I can see all of your boobs. And Lacey is blonde! And Bristol Palin is wearing a suit and tie. I know she didn’t want to go sexy, but please. That’s bizarre. Ahhhh! Here we go!

Audrina Patridge, Cha-cha-cha: So ABC is kind of filming Audrina’s practices like The Hills and it’s kind of funny. She looks amazing. And I think she’s gonna do awesome. She’s sassy – the judges are gonna love her. And it looks like she’s got the footwork down pat. I wonder if her scary sister with all the tats is in the audience. The judges have good critiques. I think they’re impressed.

The Town is Pretty Much Amazing

The day my dad was moving me into my apartment in Boston, a cab driver told him I should have moved to Charlestown. I couldn’t agree more, but I don’t have $2,000 a month for a two-room studio, so probably what I could afford is something closer to where Ben Affleck is living in his new movie, The Town. And after my dad sees it, there’s no way he’s going to let that happen.

Let me just start by saying, I didn’t know bank robbers still existed, let alone walk the streets with me on the way to their next hit. I have yet to see a 15-passenger van blow up in Harvard Square, and I hope I don’t run into any men in nun masks anywhere in the North End. While on some level this whole crime aspect of The Town seemed a little ridiculous to me, Boston, despite being in my mind a safe haven of intellectuals and money-makers, does have its fair share of downright bad dudes. If I had to break it down for you, my life in Boston has been closer to Fever Pitch than it has The Departed.

My Quest to Become a Professional Basketball Manager is Underway

I just have to say, girl’s makin’ some serious bank. I started my 467th job this week, and this one just might be my favorite. I’m working for the basketball leagues at the Cambridge Athletic Club, and they’re pretty legit. I think there are 170 teams (men’s, women’s and co-ed) and they hire stat keepers (me) to do write-ups of every game. Super serious.

Check it out here: cacbasketball.com – and click on women’s 5v5 A and 4v4 B1 West F10 (those are mine!). If you’re in the Boston area and want to play, give me a shout!
