Maggie Grace is  today.
So, for the back jacket of the future dust cover:
My name is Maggie Grace and I live in Alabama. I have a dog named Ollie the Collie, and I'm a brand new lawyer. I adore watermelon martinis and hamburgers with sauteed mushrooms, bacon, A-1 and ranch on them. I do know that that is disgusting. My dad is a pastor and a psychologist, my mom works for a facility that offers health care to terminally ill patients. There was a lot of talk about feelings in our house when I was growing up. I have three sisters, Alice (the beautiful one), Leila (the black sheep), and Christina (the neat one). I'm the smart one, or the funny one, or the free spirit, or the flippant one, or the one with personality (depending on which sister you ask on which day). I have eight nieces and nephews and no children (much to my mother's chagrin). I'm single, but not annoyed by that. I love to read, write, shop, hang out with my friends, and exhaust myself with strenuous exercise (guess which one of those is a lie). This blog is about me, my friends, my views on life. I hope you enjoy it. If you don't, too bad. Get your own blog.
Readers' Sites:
Bellatrix
Like an Alannis Morissette song (from the first CD - the good one) this blog is great for the angry "I need to cuss" days.
AnotherMan
A blog about a guy with a family, who works at Wal-Mart. If I will betray my Target allegiance in order to post it, you know it's worth a look.
Jane Keeler
To me, her website is one of the most interesting personal web pages ever. Great pictures, stories, etc. "Prisoner in Wonderland" is fascinating reading.
DK
Only two entries in, and he's already used the words "ubiquitous" and "smarmy." I may be in love.
Just Me
An uncomplicated blog about a complex person, with an obvious talent for a turn of phrase.
Gloriana
An absolute beauty of a blog. Worth reading for sheer structure, with a bonus of actually substantive content.
Tara
A fun blog by a sensible, smart, sassy woman. It's also picture-intensive, which is always a plus for me. Lots of interesting items here.
Note: Many thanks to Bellatrix for the instructions. That chick knows her bloggin'. Sorry it took so long to get these up, guys, but I'm a little slow.

So I forgot to add one movie to my list:
11. Daredevil. This movie was so incredibly boring that, when we got to the part where I realized that Ben Affleck would be half naked in a bath tub, I DIDN'T CARE. This movie effectively ruined Ben Affleck for me, and for that, I will never forgive it.
And as Jane reminded me, Titanic and Legends of the Fall were no picnics either.
