I visited New York this past January with high hopes of catching the tail end of Tim Burton's exhibit at MoMA. Bf and I carved some time out to visit the museum and of course, I got the month and days right, but I was off by a whole year. Apparently I didn't realize that this year is 2011, not 2010. Genius. Really, a very proud moment for me.
Luckily, Tim Burton's exhibit picked up and came right to me. The exhibit is on display from now until October 31, 2011 at LACMA. It will include artwork from his movies and original drawings, with a total of 700+ pieces on display.
Can't wait to feast my eyes inside Tim Burton's crazy whackadoodle head. This time I know I have the dates and times right, too. Success!
A little tip: LACMA is open everyday except for Wednesday. This exhibit is a special ticketed event and must be purchased ahead of time. You can purchase them directly from the website, and you must specify time and date. The cost is $20 for the general public, and free for any LACMA members.
Now head on over to LACMA, check out the exhibit, and take one of those token photos in front of the ginormous array of lampposts outside and make them your facebook profile picture.
Sound like a good plan?

Showtime Cancels "United States of Tara", "The Big C" Season 2 Promo and Behind the Scenes
Showtime canceled United States of Tara last week, and I cried into a bowl of cereal. Okay, not really, but something to that pitiful, depressing effect. I thought they'd at least give this show a 4th season to wrap things up, but alas it just wasn't in the cards for my once beloved show. I admit it was going downhill in seasons 2 and 3, but come on Showtime, show a little love and respect for the fabulous Toni Collette, and her portrayal of Tara Gregson, which earned her an Emmy and a Golden Globe right out of the gate.
Ah well. Time to find a really big cookie.
On the upside, The Big C, another female led Showtime dramedy (I loathe this word and I loathe that I actually use this word) that I absolutely adore, is returning June 27. Words cannot express how much I love Laura Linney and this show. If you haven't watched it, you obviously have been missing a whole lot. Catch up. Now.
Guest stars this season include Alan Alda, Parker Posey, and Hugh Dancy (yes, yes thank you Showtime). Preview season 2 and a behind the scenes snippet:

Target's Next Collab: MISSONI!
Holy crappola. It's been awhile since I've been excited about Target collabs, but come this fall, I will be lining up with the masses for Target's collaboration with Italian fashionhouse Missoni. What girl doesn't love their trademark zig zag patterns and whimsical colors? I can't wait! Missoni x Target is coming to stores this fall from September 13 through October 22. The collection will include 400+ (!) pieces that will range from bed sheets to clothing. This is Target's biggest collaboration yet!
Who's excited?
