Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Not Dead Yet!

Michael Douglas is still alive, and apparently still porking Catherine Zeta-Jones. The two were spotted having a romantic getaway in Saint Tropez where I guess they went on some manner of boat.

So yet another one of my girlfriends is in Seattle visiting me — I am just a revolving door of visitors — and we decided to go to this really fancy seafood place since she’s moving to an Asian country in like two weeks and wants to get her fill of American-style food before then. We decided to split a lobster — even though it was way expensive — but when it came, it was really chewy and just not very good. Now, normally, I would have just sat there and been sad about paying a lot of money for a chewy lobster, but my girlfriend, who is awesome, told the waiter “I don’t think lobster is supposed to taste like this,” and the waiter was like, “I’m so sorry, I’ll have them make you a new one.” I was like “Woah! That was awesome!” And the second lobster was really yummy! I need to stand up for myself more often. It’s empowering, even when you’re just watching someone else do it and benefiting. Just imagine how fulfilling my life could be if I actually spoke up about little things like that. I’d tell you that I’m going to start doing that here and now, but that’s not true. I’m totally too chicken.

What else did I need to tell you guys?

Oh, yeah. Remember how I thought I had repressed the entirety of Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants? So my friend calls me back tonight. She’s like, “First of all, when I talked to you on Sunday night, I was really fucked up on Ambien. I just think you need to know that. Also, I just talked to my friend from college, and it was actually her that I forced to watch Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, not you. So you’re not crazy. I am.”

Phew.

  • Can I come visit? Seattle is on my list. Going back and forth with San Fran, Vancouver and Seattle. Hee!

  • I understand about the “repressed memory” thing. I once had a friend describe a whole evening out to me, express disbelief that I remembered none of it only to have her admit weeks later (after going through the photos, apparently) that I wasn’t there! Whew! She almost had me convinced! Pearl

  • Um you’re in Seattle and you ate lobster? Blasphemy! You don’t belong here. Will you go away now please?

  • …What’s wrong with eating lobster in seattle? I smell a DOUCHE bag.

    She can eat whatever she wants where ever she wants. I fucking hate elitists who think they own a whole city and have the right to judge who belongs there or not. People can live where they want. Ass hole.
