SHOCKED!!!!

2012-02-12T11:54:00.001-08:00

I heard it yesterday on the way home from dinner and I COULD NOT BELIEVE IT. I am really, truly shocked about Whitney Houston's death. I felt soooooo sad for her family. I remember how really beautiful she was. I loved all those videos from the 1980's and 1990's. I LOVED her music, her amazing voice. I bought her first album and wore it out. LIKE WORE IT OUT! Praying for your daughter and

UNEMPLOYMENT WEEK 13

2012-02-06T10:36:00.000-08:00

Ok everybody, this going to be a very rambling, nonsensical post so bear with me.Did it again. Got up at 9:30. Feeling blue. Had a busy weekend with people who HAVE JOBS and can go places and do things. Well, not necessarily true. Mommie's birthday is this week so the husband surprised me with tickets to see Bobby Caldwell at our favorite jazz club. Thank you honey. Despite our lack of

STAFF CONFLICT AND WORKPLACE INCIVILITY

2012-01-31T23:39:00.000-08:00

Consider these telling statistics from a handful of recent studies and surveys:(My comments are in italics)Managers said they spend, on average, 18 percent of the time dealing with staff conflict.(Isn't that part of their job description? MANAGING STAFF? Stupid Morons.)Forty-three percent of employees said they've experienced incivility at work, according to the "Civility in America 2011" poll

OMG ... THE PREZ CAN SING!

His smile has always knocked me out and now that voice!! I'm melting ... OMG, I AM SO IN LOVE WITH HIM!!!!

LINDA LOU .... LIVE FROM LAS VEGAS!

2012-01-24T12:06:00.000-08:00

Well, I finally, finally got the chance to meet Linda Lou of Linda Lou Live From Las Vegas fame. Stand up comic, writer extraordinaire and author of "Bastard Husband, A Love Story" (don't you love that title) and just like she told me, she IS MUCH BETTER LOOKING IN PERSON! In the land of bloggers you often get to meet some pretty amazing people and Linda is one such person. We were originally

OK, I'M REALLY PISSED OFF!

2012-01-24T09:06:00.000-08:00

Viggo did not get nominated for an Academy Award!!! What's wrong with those people!!I'm really upset. Seriously.

TIME FOR A RANT

2012-01-23T08:35:00.000-08:00

As you may know from having read my Golden Globes Best and Worst ... I hate Madonna (p.s. her gown looked like a computer chip). She's been doing a lot of press lately because she has a movie coming out which she apparently wrote and directed called "W.E." and is about the romance between Edward VIII, the man who would be King of England who gave up the throne for his lady love, Wallis

FACEBOOK, FRIENDS, LIFE ...

2012-01-19T15:58:00.000-08:00

I was on a friend's Facebook page today wherein she was lamenting the fact that she is middle aged and has not accomplished anything in her life that is noteworthy. I understand. And though I did remind her of her very many accomplishments, one being that she raised 5, yes FIVE, children, which if it were up to me there would be a yearly award show complete with T.V. coverage of red carpet

GOLDEN GLOBES BEST AND WORST 2012

2012-01-15T16:33:00.000-08:00

OK. So right off the bat I was pissed. Viggo did not win for Best Supporting Actor. They gave it to that old prune Christopher Plummer. Yeah, he's a great actor and all but let's call it like it is, he's a Brit and he's old so they gave him Viggo's award and I don't like it. So there.And Viggo, my love, a tux with a navy blue and red striped tie??? YOU NEED ME. SERIOUSLY. You know, I love

VIGGO ... ETHER ... GOLDEN GLOBES

2012-01-12T13:10:00.000-08:00

We're connected. I dream, jeep, riding, Malibu. He wants me. I remember Danny ... in my dream ... shit.That day he gets nominated for a Golden Globe. Thank you Viggo.

IT'S AWARD SEASON!!

2012-01-11T20:39:00.001-08:00

The Golden Globes will air this weekend, Sunday, January 15 and I will be doing my yearly BEST and WORST comments and pics. Don't forget that my boyfriend has been nominated in the Best Supporting Actor category for his BRILLIANT performance as Sigmund Freud in David Cronenberg's "A Dangerous Method." This is the list of nominees in his category:BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTOR IN A SUPPORTING ROLE

OMG ... MITT ROMNEY IS AN ANCHOR BABY!!!

2012-01-06T14:31:00.000-08:00

Did you all know that Mitt's father was born in Chihuahua, Mexico!?!?!? Just think, Mitt's relatives singing "Volver Volver". Check out the article below: Mitt Romney's 'Mexican roots': 4 talking points The all-American GOP candidate has plenty of relatives — and history — south of the border posted on July 26, 2011, at 10:50 AM

IOWA ... these freakin' people

2012-01-04T17:19:00.000-08:00

Are you calling Mitt Romney a liar?Newt: "YES." (Mitt's a liar? I'd like to speak to your previous wives Mr. Gingrich).Bachmann has decided "to stand aside" ... THANK GOD. Now, why don't you go and adopt some kids or something."I don't want to make black people's lives better by giving them somebody else's money; I want to give them the opportunity to go out and earn the money."Gotta love

you need to incorporate some color into your wardrobe dammit!!! YOU LOOK LIKE A VAMPIRE. And while you're at it, lighten up the hair ... it looks like you color it with shoe polish.and p.s. ... doesn't Bruce look like he's made of wax?

A DANGEROUS METHOD

2011-12-28T10:40:00.000-08:00

Well, I finally saw it! Went to the movie last night with Laura and Paulina and settled in for a real grown up film with intelligent dialogue. The film is visually beautiful and takes place during the early 1900's, one of my favorite periods. This is a film for the real movie aficionado. Not a blockbuster ride of a film that requires 3D glasses. It was thoughtful and provocative. Michael
