EOD Roundup
EOD Roundup: Jacob Bernstein’s New York Times Tribute to His Mother, Nora Ephron, is Devastatingly Beautiful
7:15 pm, March 7th | by Colette McIntyre
In today’s EOD roundup, we recognize that the week is almost over, we’re all tired, lawmakers are being creepy, and all we want to do is eat pizza and drink beer in housecoats, so we’re going to take it easy on you. But first, we’re going to make you weep until you look like the lost member of the California Raisins! The New York Times has published a tender and deeply personal tribute to Nora Ephron by her son, Jacob Bernstein. Forge ahead only if you have a box of tissues near you and have been properly hydrating all day. [New York Times]
Not to be outdone by Kate Middleton, America’s own princess, Jessica Simpson, “accidentally” announced on Jimmy Kimmel Live! that she is having a boy. But of course, because she’s Jessica Simpson, it couldn’t be as simple as a mere slip of the tongue; No! Instead the former Mrs. Lachey (my OTP!) said a “wiener” was “making her nauseous” because that’s something real people just casually say by mistake. [Vulture]
Something that doesn’t involve wieners or nausea (sorry to disappoint): Megan Bernard’s ten day solitary biking trip along the Pacific Coast. [The Hairpin]
A few years ago, while out at a karaoke bar with coworkers, I decided I would only sing TV show theme songs. I may or may not have had too many whiskey-sodas and I may or may not have begun to cry while singing the Gilmore Girls theme. Either way, I am unreasonably excited that A.V Club has started recapping Gilmore Girls episodes starting with the pilot. When you lead…I will foll-low-oh…any-anywhere..that you tell me to… [AV Club]
