“So, Where’s the Cannes Film Festival being held this year?”

Media!
So in my quest to become a true Youth/Pop Culture expert, I’m doing all kinds of indepenent research. I’m just finished Anastasia Goodstein of YPulse.com’s book, “Totally Wired” which was a great (and pretty easy) read. It’s all about the digital lives of teens and tweens. I’m now reading a book called “Convergence Culture”, which is about,...

They're Trying To Destroy Me.
My two favorite blogs both posted things that made me pee a little today. Michael K. over at Dlisted (www.dlisted.com) brought to my attention the new Public Access Show “Vagina Power” (see the video below), and Fresh over at Crunk N Disorderly(http://crunktastical.blogspot.com) had us play a little game with lace front wigs. The goal is to accurately match the mannequin head with its...

Amy's "Rehab" comes on at Work...
Becky: Ooohhhh. I love this song.
Me: Yep. Me too. I love some Winehouse.
Becky: Yeah you were telling me you've liked her since,like, forever.
Me: Uh huh.
Becky: You're not one of those people who gets all weird when people they found become mainstream are you?
Me: Hell no! That bitch drinks like a fish! She needs all the money she can get.
Amy Winehouse Day!
I’ve been a fan of Amy Winehouse since late 2004/ early 2005. I spent fucking $35 on her first cd “Frank”, because it was strictly an import and wouldn’t be released here. It was well worth the money. “Frank” actually became a supplement to my own vocal work, because Amy’s voice is so deep that I can pretty much match all her notes- and her runs/phrasing...
“I don’t drink as much as I used to could.”
– Anna Nicole Smith (Bless her soul)
Great Weekend...
So I spent the majority of last evening getting trashed with my roommate Cynthia, and our friend Josie, at Dougs’ house while he was out in the wilderness fly fishing. Hilarity insued. Anyway, I know it’s a religious holiday of some sort, Happy Religious Easter Passover Jesus Walks Day or something like that. I’m headed into work, and after, I’ll be headed into a bar,...

Koren runs into her ex.
(*Ex's name has been changed to "Mary" to protect the not so innocent, and because he's a homo.*)
Koren: I just ran into Mary at the AM/PM
Me: Oh lawd. Did he see you?
Koren: That bitch said 'hi' and I threw an International Delight at him.
Me: lol! You did NOT!
Koren: Hazelnut.
Bad Days and Peppermint Pattys.
Yesterday, everything that could go wrong did. It was pretty bad. I had no one to call. So as I sat on the WeHo shuttle, watching the 80 year old driver cough up three different types of flegm and circle the same block six times…I texted Grant in a panic. He then called, and promptly laughed at me. I soon arrived home, had a frozen Peppermint Patty and a nice, quiet, “sit the hell...
