A Big Week in Hollywood


In other Hollywood news, lots of people died last week. Three of those people were famous...Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, and Michael Jackson (in case you live under a rock and hadn't heard). I was pretty repulsed by some friend's comments about these deaths. I thought compassion was a good quality. Sensitivity, thoughtfulness, sympathy, empathy. Apparently making a joke at the expense of someone else who has passed away is more important for some. I personally was grossed out at the lack of class. Ok, so you aren't personally affected by the loss. No problem. Still don't think there need to be jokes made about death. It's insensitive and as I said, gross.

Another one bites the dust....
What's a girls' weekend usually like? Talking. Eating. Talking. Talking. Talking. More eating. We legitimately love to get together and chat about life and memories and what the future holds. And we like eating too. :) Mainly it's just a very relaxed 4-5 days where we get to take a step away from our lives and hang out like we did in college. So when it is centered around a wedding there is A LOT more activity than in a typical girls weekend. See what I mean. :)

Big G
This year I came up with kind of an interesting (at least in my opinion) resolution. This happened in February so really it wasn't a resolution so much as a decision to do something. I decided that it would be a really cool thing to write my Grandma Jean letters at least twice a month. It's been so fun looking forward to hearing back from her. Today I composed my 6th letter and am including some pictures for her from our trip there in January. Although I love living in LA, the distance can be difficult when it comes to family and friends. Keeping in touch is difficult. There are time changes that hinder phone calls during hours I'm not working and weekends seem jam-packed with no time for long phone chats. And getting something in the mail that isn't a bill is exciting! :) So in my opinion this is a successful endeavor that we've begun. Having a cool Grammy as a pen pal isn't half bad.

New Metric and life in music

Good shows are coming up. This makes Molly happy. In a year when they've taken away all of my good radio stations (indie 103.1 specifically) I need these shows to get me through! I'm an assistant...I spend a lot of time in my car and I need music to help deal with traffic in LA. Indie helped me. It exposed me to new artists, played old favorites that no one else played, and helped those guys I love who aren't so mainstream to get some airplay. Sigh. Pour a little out for a radio station that has now been made into a Spanish station....

G is for Gertrude and A is for Arthur
And today is my doggie's birthday too. He is 5! Time flies. I remember when I was researching boxers. I honestly don't remember why I decided on that breed. We had Louis the pug and I wanted a bigger dog and got focused on boxers. After looking at ads every day, I finally succumbed and called a guy who posted about his new puppies. I was calling him throughout the day and getting updates... soon he only had one puppy left! I had to wait for KT to get home from work and we drove to the middle of nowhere outside of Atlanta. I was just going to "look." As soon as I saw the adorable brindle boxer puppy I knew he was mine. I couldn't leave without him and I wrote the check then and there (of course, why would I have had my checkbook if I really was...."just looking"? :)). I named him on the way home and the rest is history! I love you, my little furry child!

Blessed and Bewildered
We got to go to some old favorites that aren't in LA...chik-fil-A, Mellow Mushroom, etc. I got to take my time shopping instead of running in a store for my boss and then taking a quick power lap in the other sections perusing for myself. My fam is hilarious and each trip I come back with some great quotes. This year the winner was my aunt talking about tattoos...having seen mine and KT's. She said "the only tattoo I'd ever get is a huge DNR on my chest." Say this in a very pessimistic monotone voice and picture a tiny woman saying it. Hilarious. This is the aunt that called me once and said "open your door and listen....hear that? It's my life...sucking." haha
I feel like I'm going through a time of transition. I'm going to be moving March 1st and that's exciting. I'll be in Los Feliz which is an area that I love. And there is a backyard for Arthur...he's going to be a happy pup. It's always fun to make changes at a new place. I want to paint! For now though, I want to go home and start my weekend! :)

2008 wrap-up

2008 was an interesting year. It is funny because I remember hearing my parents say that time flies and I'd look at them like they were crazy and think "but every day of 2nd grade seems like an eternity!" Funny how your perspective changes as you age. I honestly can't believe an entire year has passed since we spent New Year's at obrien's in Santa Monica and at the griffin. But a lot has changed.
