About Grace Rooney


Profile:  80% bionic 10% heart 10% jackass. I believe reality television is a good way to keep life in perspective. Watch any of these shows, and your life will seem dramatically better than it did 30 or 60 minutes previously. I am a voracious reader and have at least three books going at a time--Rory Gilmore-style. I don’t think my life is any more exciting than the next person’s, so the best way to get to know me is to read what I post--just don’t ever take me too seriously. I surely don’t.

O Christmas. Seriously?

By Grace Rooney in Food and drink, Mindless chatter, Uncategorized

Thanksgiving seems to be a big holiday for coming out—maybe it’s the tryptophan in the turkey that weakens our defenses, maybe it’s the over zealous cheering during football games that makes us feel the need to blurt out I’M GAY while turkey and all the fixins are passed around the table where extended family has gathered.
