Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Lindsay and Samantha Acela-rate

Okay, that’s a dumb title, and that’s not even how you spell “accelerate,” but it’s nearly 4 am and I can’t sleep. I’ve made this new and exciting decision to stop taking my anti-anxiety meds, because they make me sleep like 14 hours a day, and the end result is that, while my body adjusts, I don’t sleep at all. Plus: I’m anxious! It’s totally awesome. I sit on my bed, surrounded by all my slumbering animals, and I stare at them with jealousy. And then I decide which one I’m going to wake up to play with me. The Chosen One is never too happy about it (it’s usually Leo). But I just got fed up with spending more time asleep than my damn cats, so we’ll see how this little experiment goes.

Anyway, Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson went all Everyman this weekend, taking the Acela from Penn Station to a gig Samantha had in Boston.

“They looked like they were having fun in Penn Station,” said our spy. “They went almost totally unno ticed and got on first class.” Thursday night, the duo ate a quiet dinner together and then hit Shrine at the MGM Grand at Foxwoods. “Lindsay, who was wearing the same shirt that Sam wore the day before, sat in a chair in the deejay booth right next to her and watched her spin. They were very affectionate to one another.”

Ah, this brings back memories. When I lived in New York, I’d only really lived in Arizona and California previously, where all major cities are approximately 1000 miles apart. I was so excited that on the East Coast you can just hop on a train and be in a new city in a couple of hours, so I did that almost every weekend. I spent a lot of time in Penn Station and on Acelas. They’re awesome.

Oh, and Samantha also did something really cute this weekend. She responded to a Page Six report that she refused to play Ali Lohan’s new single because she hated it. She wrote this on her MySpace:

i wouldn’t be responding to this one- but i’m afraid that people might actually believe that and that’s not fair to Ali. She’s 14 years old- high school is bad enough- do tabloids really need to torture teenagers as well?

well then- with that out of the way- I hope you are all well and check out the single on itunes- it’s a great f***ing pop song!

Aw, I just love the Lindsay/Samantha pairing. I can’t wait for the wedding, the reality TV show, and the messy divorce.

  • I’m just a bit curious.The Magazine HOLLYWOOD GOSSIP reported her profiles were found on the famous wealthy dating club***:::M e e t i n g W e a l t h y.c o m:::***last week and she was seeking her new guy there now! BTW, The girls there are really hot!

  • Thank God, I’m not the only one. I take prozac and wellbuterin and I’m ALWAYS tired. Which doesn’t make sense because wellbuterin is used to treat ADD on occasion. Being tired, having a full time job and taking 16 credit hours with a business major don’t go well together. Sigh… Seriously, let me know how it goes, PLEASE

  • I can’t sleep either… I neither take medication nor sleep during the day, and it drives me crazy. :-( When I do fall asleep, I don’t want to wake up. I force myself to get up early though so that I’ll be tired in the evening, and then I’m not and can’t sleep. As a result, I bitch about it to a bunch of people who don’t really care (yeah you don’t… I don’t either when I read that stuff! :-) ) …Well, that and leave too many comments on Evil Beet… speaking of, anyone know of something fun to do by yourself on a rainy weekend? (Please don’t say watch a movie or rent a movie or watch TV… I do enough of that.) :-)

    P.S. woohoo, cute dog… ha ha.

  • Thanks down unda!!! It sounds stupid but if you live with some other people, play a board game! It passes the time. Go to a coffee shop, read a book, museums, bars haha, mall, cleaning, sex, drink, cook, cuddle. Theres my list haha

  • Hey Beet, best of luck on your sleep quest. I used to take antianxiety meds, until witnesses reported that I drove thru a red light… Yikes!
    Now I just take 2 when I go to bed, because Goddess knows they are a great sedater! I also occasionally take them when I am upset and shaking and perspiring like mad…but never to drive!

  • Going off of your medication is NEVER a good idea. You just need to have them adjusted.

    A date on a train…. very cute. I’m actually jealous.

  • Good luck with getting off the meds. I quit mine cold turkey around march and I have been just fine. If your taking a pretty high dosage I would not recommend that though.

  • Have you thought about trying homeopathic anxiety remedies? I am studying for the bar exam and started having panic attacks a couple weeks ago, and I was really reluctant to get a prescription for something that might undermine brain function. The lady at a local health food store suggested I try kava kava, and it’s been immensely helpful without making me sleepy. It’s not as effective as a prescription might be, but it takes the edge off my anxiousness and helps me relax. I am *in no way* a doctor or recommending you try anything without talking to one, but it might be worth looking into. Good luck!

  • Good for you, Beet! Stopping your antianxiety meds – something I’m working on, too. Kind of feeling the love for Samantha and Lindsey these days…they seem content.
