It's taken me a few days to post this because there's a lot that I've had to process and come to terms with. After John-John and before Clooney-pie, my celeb crushes were Antonio Sabato Jr. and Ricky Martin, who are probably the two most beautiful male specimens to ever walk this planet.
Antonio is so stunning that, as a friend can attest, I swerved my car and almost caused an accident the first time I saw his Calvin Klein underwear billboard on Sunset. That's some powerful art. Then I saw him at a party and there's a slight chance that I may have ever-so-gently brushed up against him as I passed. ...
... Hearing the words "please," "thank you" and "I'm sorry," especially when said by my nephews without any prompting.
... When my nephews yell "NENE!!" and attack me upon arrival, even though it tends to destroy my back for a couple days.
... Time I get to spend with my nephews (well, up to 72 hours. There are only so many conversations about superheroes I can take).
... People who have their money ready.
... Lines that move quickly.
... No lines at all.
... New episodes of Lost, particularly ones that are Desmond-centric.
... Suited Big Slick in the hole.
... When the U.S. provides humanitarian aid to our enemies.
... When karma skips her lunch break.
... Rumors ...
The action never stops.
1:12 am- Two guys run full speed toward my car. One tosses a bag to the curb as they keep running.
I'm guessing they weren't getting a jump on the next Olympic trials.
1:15 am- I have to slam on my brakes to avoid hitting Ron Jeremy who darted in front of my car. I know he doesn't look like he can dart but I assure you, he darted. The funniest thing to me is that even in the dark I knew it was him before I ever saw his face. He's certainly got his own inimitable style. This of course got me thinking about the ...
Rumor has it that photos of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's twins may have been purchased for as much as $11 million. Given that this is not the first time magazines have paid such high prices, I'm inclined to believe they do so because celebrity baby pictures actually sell magazines.
WHY??????
I get that my interest in all things baby is not on par with the average person's but for the life of me I can not understand what is so fascinating about pictures of someone else's newborns. They all pretty much look the same to me. I would understand the curiosity if the babies had cleft palates or cone heads-- you know, something a little out of the ordinary. But we're ...
2:30 am- A man crossing Hollywood Boulevard pulls a role reversal when he stops midway and signals for a cop car to complete its right turn. The cops motion for him to finish crossing but he continues signaling forcefully for them to turn. They go back and forth like this a few times until the cops decide that instead of making their right turn, they'd prefer to have a little chat with this obviously intoxicated pedestrian. I avoid any sudden movements in their vicinity.
2:37 am- I enter 7-11 and pour myself a cappuccino but the cup doesn't fit under the nozzle so when I pull the filled cup out, some scalding liquid drips on my hand. It's just hot enough ...
