I was giving an interview the other day, because I’m very glamorous (I was topless, wearing sweatpants, and hadn’t showered in a\u00a0while<\/em>), and I commented on the fact that I get so much email about\u00a050 Shades of Grey,\u00a0<\/em>with links and pictures and fun stuff, and I know there’s no way I can share all of it.<\/p>\n

And then I was like, “Yes, you can. Remember how you were going to post about the\u00a050 Shades\u00a0<\/em>drinking game someone sent you? Why not put all the links and stuff in\u00a0that<\/em> post, and then have a grilled cheese sandwich?” And I was like, “Yeah, self. That’s a great idea. But how about I do the sandwich now, and make the post in a few days?” And self was like, “You know what? You’ve earned it. Have two. And listen to Justin Timberlake’s ‘Damn Girl’ while you eat them, because you know that if JT knew you, he’d find your sandwich consuming skills– and those sweatpants– intensely erotic.”<\/p>\n

These are in a very particular order. The order that they’re stacked in my inbox. If you sent me something and you don’t see it here, it’s probably because it’s lost in the depths, or someone sent the same thing first. Also, the bulk of what I receive are links to news stories that like, thirty people send me at once. I assume that if something has been on a major news outlet, y’all have heard about it. But if you have something like that, \u00a0leave it in the comments and it totally counts.<\/p>\n

Kathy sent me this post on a NSFW Tumblr,\u00a0Things I Need Done To Me Today<\/a>. I love that the author describes herself as “A PROFESSIONAL ‘SOCCER MOM’ TYPE BY DAY, AND A TOTAL FUCKING WHORE BY NIGHT” Autofollow RESCINDED as it turns out she’s an MRA. Come on, lady. You were so cool.<\/p>\n

Courtney sent this hilarious blog post: The Worst Book That Ever Was And Ever Will Be: A Review of\u00a050 Shades of Grey.<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

Wendy brought this book to my attention by actually buying it for me. So, Wendy gets the gold star for the day. I haven’t had a chance to read it yet, but it comes highly recommended: Whatsoever He Might Kind of Want or Desire.<\/a><\/p>\n

Artistically inspired read Kelsey made some bootleg book covers for the recaps, and I think she really captured the true essence of this project:<\/p>\n
