I Started A New Blog!

You may notice that I stopped posting here on the SassChron in late 2011. I spent 2012 posting exclusively on a Bay Area music and film site called Spinning Platters, and then formally launched my new pop culture blog, The Binge, at the beginning of March. It’s a combination of the daily posts I used to do on here with the weekly film reviews and interviews I’d been doing for Spinning Platters. So check it out!

In very exciting news (for me), Holly Hunter will reunite with her The Piano director Jane Campion for a BBC/Sundance Channel miniseries called Top of the Lake, which will also costar Elisabeth Moss (!). The mini is set in the remote mountains of New Zealand and follows the disappearance of a five-months pregnant 12-year-old named Tui who was last seen standing chest-deep in a frozen lake. Investigating detective Robin Griffin (Moss) must lose herself in order to find the missing girl. During the investigation, she collides with Matt Mitcham (Peter Mullan), Tui’s father, a local drug lord, and G.J (Hunter), a guru at a local women’s camp. The case testes Robin’s limits and sends her on a journey of self-discovery. [via]

We’re having a boy! We’re so happy that Axel gets to have a brother so close in age. And that I get to add another set of balls to my very, very male world. We found out I was pregnant during my mom’s birthday weekend in Ojai. I was instantly so proud of this baby for already knowing how to make someone else’s special day all about him.
