I Fell in Love in the Library, Once Upon a Time

I could spend all day looking at the gorgeous libraries in this first link.  That image to the left is from Priceline.com founder Jay Walker's personal home library - and that shiny object hanging from the ceiling?  Sputnik.  Seriously.  (Beautiful-Libraries)

One book I'm sure you wouldn't find in Erica Jong's personal library would be "Fifty Shades of Grey."  Here, she and other notable erotica experts discuss the book's sexual merits (as opposed to its literary merits - or lack thereof).  (Velvet Roper)

Pinky's Picks For Oscar Best And Worst

Pinky McLadybits

Oh, Oscars! You always fall right around my birthday and I watch you nearly every year. Every year I am bored, nervous, annoyed, giggly, and awed by the outfits celebrities parade around in. This year was no different. I laughed at Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis with their cymbals and I tittered at Christopher Guest and company (FLYING MONKEYS!). I was ridiculously bored with hot Billy Crystal, finding him wasted with cheesy jokes and idiotic montages. I was crushed by Michelle Williams and Gary Oldman losing in their respective categories and delighted by the only win for the Muppets Movie.

The best part, however, is checking out and eviscerating the dresses when necessary. There were many time that it was very necessary. Can I just say that I HATE the trend of wearing boring white, plain black, nudes, beiges, and other no-colors? Because I really, really do. ONTO THE DRESSES!
