• Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip is going to be a great show. It’s had one episode so far (Monday nights, 10 pm ET), and shows great promise. Matthew Perry and Bradley Whitford are very, very good at delivering Sorkin dialogue. Amanda Peet is very, very bad at it. Neither of these facts is ever more obvious than when all three are on screen together. But watch it anyway, because Matthew Perry and Bradley Whitford are an amazing pair, and the rest of the show is worth watching, too.

• No matter how much you want Rice Krispie Treats, do not attempt to make them with the Whole Foods equivalent of Crisped Rice Cereal. Even if you don’t want to make an extra stop at another store. Even if you’re there anyway. It’s not worth it. I’ve never had a Krispie Treat taste so wrong. I’ve never had a pan sit on the table with only two squares missing. I think I’ll be buying real Rice Krispies tonight and trying again, because these things suck.

• I need the weather to just pick a season and stick to it. My allergies are a mess and it’s gone into some kind of sinus ick. Might be a cold, might be a mild sinus infection, might be aliens ready to burst through my skin. Regardless, I’m seriously considering clawing my sinuses out of my face, just to be done with it already, because it’s uncomfortable, to say the least.

• My 10-year high school reunion is next month. I always told myself that I’d go, just to see how many people I’m better than. But I can’t afford to go, which gives you some idea of how well that turned out. (Seriously: over $100 per person, just to get in? To spend one evening with people I didn’t much care for the first time? I don’t think so.)

• I’m heading down to Long Island this weekend to see the family. The car is being stupid and I don’t like driving anyway, so I’m taking the train to the ferry and someone will pick me up. Hooray for mass transit! In related news, I’m absolutely loving the new neighborhood, where I can walk to anything I need (except work). It doesn’t even occur to me to take the car most places. If I can get there by foot in 15 minutes, why would I bother drive? I hate driving! I hate parking! I hate needing quarters for meters and dodging pedestrians and filling the gas tank. I love living in Somerville.
