Sorry I have been gone forevah-evah, but a big huge THANK YOU to Wendie for covering for me as I ran 13.1 miles in the Arizona Rock ‘N’ Roll half-marathon yesterday. I have made so many positive and healthy changes in my life the past year, and this was really the culmination of it, and I am so proud of myself for finishing. Honestly, you guys, if I can do this, anyone can. Deciding to do this half-marathon, and training for it, has really changed my life for the better. It has helped build my self-confidence and my physical and emotional strength, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to make a big change in the way their life works.
And is everyone psyched for the inauguration of President-elect Obama tomorrow? How freakin’ awesome is it that MLK Day immediately precedes it? The timing is just perfect. I’m so excited!
What are you guys doing tomorrow for inauguration night?
Does anyone know of anything going on in Scottsdale? I have no plans and I definitely want to be a part of some festivities!!!
Looks like the lovebirds may be back on, if they were even off to begin with, and they owe it all to Obama. Sam Ronson, working as the DJ at the Declare Yourself event in Washington D.C., is hanging in the booth with Linds. Witnesses say that they are very much together as they appear at various pre-inaugural events and celebrations.
I, for one, am glad to hear that the dramz is not over just yet. Whew, national crisis averted. Thanks Obama!
The pressure was too much! Those aggressive soccer moms are not to be trifled with. Brit is going to record a new version of If You Seek Amy titled If You See Amy. Personally, I think it should be If You See Amy (tell her I want to fuck her), but whatever.
My two cents: Once you start letting the public dictate your content, it’s all downhill. Do you think this re-record is a good idea or does it compromise her creative integrity?
Above, Brit in her (hopefully) pre-Seeking Amy days.
Some dudes in England, and by “dudes” I mean “idiots, have come up with a mathematical formulation that pinpoints today, January 19th as the most depressing day of the year. Components of the formula include the economy, holiday bills and the fact that it’s a Monday. They predicted that up to 25% of the British workforce might call in sick to work today. You know what depresses me? That I can never get back the thirty-seven seconds I lost reading about these fuckwits. Sorry to share the misery, but it is Blue Monday and I don’t want to be alone.
How can we combat this perfect storm of malaise? I feel so…so powerless.
Tom Cruise was in South Korea over the weekend promoting his film, Valkyrie. ”I’ve always wanted to kill Hitler. As a child, I used to wonder why someone didn’t stand up and kill him,” Cruise told reporters. If his mother loved him, she could have saved him a lot of angst by letting him know that the reason no one stood up and killed Hitler was because he already did himself the favor seventeen years before Cruise was born.
Since my childhood aspirations didn’t extend much past conquering Pong or feathering Kissing Barbie’s hair with safety scissors, I can’t relate to such lofty goals. Dictator assassination seems so ambitious for a grade-schooler to contemplate. He really is a superhero, wanting to kill the dead. It’s why he can get away with the turtleneck/sportcoat/mom jean combo.
She. Is. Marvelous. Seriously marvelous. And super gorgeous. I am not generally a fan of short hair, on guys or girls (late ’90s men’s fashion was a nightmare for me, and I was only in middle school), but she looks so...
I would like to tell you that the term “retard” is very offensive to me. I am not offended because I ASSUME it would offend someone who has mental retardation. I am offened on how the word came to...
