so i probably have had a few celebrity sightings, sometimes i don't really keep track of them all the time. one i TOTALLY REMEMBER when i saw justin timberlake.. hahaha. but i wasn't quite quick enough to get a photo as i passed him on the street.

today i was at lunch in venice with work and we saw *gasp* owen wilson. hahhaha. he sat in a table in the back i guess as to not get a lot of attention, but too late! we saw him when he first walked in. i try not to gawk and stare too much as he's having his conversation. as he's leaving he signs a few autographs for the wait staff, chats with a few people and i snap a picture as he's walking away because i can't work up the nerve/dorkiness to go up and ask him for a picture. hahahha... i swear i'm not a goober.

in case you didn't get the memo from earlier... yuk.



(i feel kind of like a jerk posting and saying these awful things, but seriously, so not cute...) i haven't quite been keeping up, has she admitted to anything yet? the original picture is way bigger and little more frightening



thanks to linh i decided to check out the superficial and there's always tons of entertainment to be found there. today's fun (which may actually be old news) is that paris and britney have dyed their hair black. black is the new blonde? they all just want to look like me. :P (speaking of hair - i think i might cut my hair this weekend!)



how does anyone think this is attractive? i mean.. i know being skinny is great - but i seriously believe there is too skinny. her head looks way too big for her dang body. i mean.. there was a time when i did think she was pretty cute and petite, but i think she's outta control and losing it. she's freaking me out.

(pictures courtesy of a fun new (to me) celeb gossip site: http://hotmommadrama.blogspot.com/

those pictures were at the premiere of the devil wears prada which i guess was at the la film festival. now i know why tickets were freakin $100... *sigh* i guess i will just have to wait to catch it in theatres. (anne hathaway looks beautiful (an proportional) by the way.)
as soon as i got home a bit of a thunderstorm happened. i was on the phone and thought i saw a flash and was like "nah.. it was probably just a reflection or something" but sure enough followed the loud thunder. (actually before that i heard thunder and was like "is that thunder? nah.. it's probably and airplane") anyhoo.. i usually think it's kind of fun and cool, but tonight it was freakin' me out a little, so i'm glad it passed. it was quick, and the rainfall that followed was nice and light as well. i dunno why it was freakin' me out - maybe cuz i was by myself in a spacious place, or when i'd walk by the skylights and there was lighting, it would flash and illuminate the rooms, but only from that source. also there's the whole active imagination thing. when my sister and i were younger we'd play this video "clue" game, which is like the boardgame, but the mystery was on video, and so through that and game cards you had to figure out who killed who (instead of picking the cards and hiding them in an envelope).. it was pretty fun, but tonight the thunder and lighting storm just reminded me of that video and being in that house.. then i was like "oh man.. i'm in a murder mystery house!"

yikes i am delusional today.

i saw An Inconvenient Truth last night, and i know i know i'm late to jump on the bandwagon (well.. the inconvenient truth bandwagon, but i've been an environmentalist forever :P - thanks joan!) but it was really good. at first you watch it, and you feel kind of helpless.. like "all these bad things are happening and there's nothing i can do"... but it makes you realize there are things you can do, and things that we can change, and i hope that this film is a catalyst for that. so.. i think you should go see it - plus it's free. (i like the earth, i like free.. works out..) and al gore is scheduled to be there as well.. that'll probably be really interesting and possibly inspiring :) (another thought that came out of watching that movie was "fuckin florida!") har har har. anyway.. here's the info:

FREE SCREENING: An Inconvenient Truth
Saturday June 24, 8pm
CALIFORNIA PLAZA
350 S. Grand Ave., Los Angeles CA 90071
http://www.lafilmfest.com/tixSYS/2006/filmguide/event.php?EventNumber=4397

you should go see it if you haven't already, bring your friends and parents, it's really good and informative. i'm debating taking my parents to go see it .. i hope that the message wouldn't be lost on them... but it's one of those films that definitely makes you aware yah know? reminds you of what you should really care about.. inspires you. haha.. funny enough this is the same feeling i would get after coming back from circle k conventions :P it made me glad that my parents never let me get that SUV i always wanted, it made me want to buy a prius, it makes me want to go plant trees. haha.

favorite funny part from the movie is when al gore compares gold bars against "mm... THE ENTIRE PLANET".. okay.. looks stupid when i write it out, but it's so funny. i echo the sentiment of kevin & bean of "al, why weren't you this guy 6 years ago!" (awhile ago) they also re-capped this moment when he was on the tonight show -

Jay Leno: "How do you feel being treated like a movie star?"
Gore: "Well, it's not all all easy. For example, I'm in this huge feud with Lindsay Lohan now."
Leno: "Really? Can you give us a little more?"
Gore: "No, she knows what she did."

hi.larious.

okay, back to the topic on hand - if you can't make it to the screenign tomorrow you should definitely go see it in theatres! you won't be dissapointed.

go now.

so this morning i was listening to kevin & bean intermittently between pushing the snooze buttons and heard this on the radio. i don't watch a whole lot of tv anymore - and when i do, i fast forward through all commercials and thus my connection to outside life is minimal. especially news type stuff (not that this qualifies as "news" but you know what i mean..) i know, i know.. i should be better about being "aware" of the world.. but for now - my form of news is mostly through morning kroq radio... they always have "quality" stuff .. so here is it..

dustin diamond - aka "screech" is having a little trouble with money and has dealt with shady characters (you know how i hate those) and needs some help. so help him out i say...

i think i need to just give up on my quest for my pretty pink razr :(

i found a store that had some left, and then i kind of hesitated because of the price, and now that i'm like "screw it i'm gonna buy it" they didn't have any left. i balked at the $289 price and got a 25% discount and kind of had the attitude of "pink razr or bust" ... so yesterday i went in prepared to spend $240 to replace my phone.. and then they were out. BOO. so maybe it wasn't "meant to be" - if you believe in that stuff. sometimes i do i guess.. although i can't really see what the "meant to be" of having my phone stolenn is. to teach me a lesson? who knows.

i called a ton of verizon and circuit city/verizon stores and no luck with the pink razr. a few "hmm.. let me checks" but no dice. i think it's a "sign" my sister told me to call some orange county stores, but for gas money - i might as well just buy it on ebay - and the price is like $250-$350... then i realized, that's roughly 30% or more of my rent money. and along with these $2000 editing classes i am taking - money that i thought i had is quickly dwindling. spending a huge chunk of money on a phone doesn't seem like such a wise idea ... but boy did that phone make me so happy :(

i need to be okay with this decision though.. and maybe when the new version of the razr comes out and they make that in pink maybe i'll blow my cash on that.. when my expenditures have balanced themselves out a little bit. for now i think i might go back to using my very broke LG phone, so if you can't hear me, you know why. it does come with an ez tip calculator though.. i do like that.

so yea.. if you have a pink phone or a razr (of any color), don't use it around me, i'm likely to either steal it (a la march of penguins desperate mother mode) or take it and throw it against a wall.

it's so weird.. these past few days i've been seeing people everywhere on their cell phones. it makes me a little mad.

today i was driving into work and there was a radio ad for the new razr. the guy says something and i wasn't really listening, but my ears perk up when the girl says "what?! your razr plays music?!" - and i had to turn off the radio, it made me too sad :(

so lame.. i know...

i'm cleaning out some stacks of papers and find some old resumes that the previous assistant was probably doing something with... and in between those resumes i find a finger nail clipping, a pretty big one...

ew. gross. and a little creepy.
just so y'all don't think i'm a huge biatch - i'm taking my mom to urgent care now.. see ya later.

Monday, June 12, 2006

i just gave my mom a little bit of my impatient attitudeness. she is famous for nagging (as all mom's are) but now she doesn't feel well. and when people don't feel well they become that much more whiney, needy, and fussy. i should know... literally. i honestly would like to help my mom - but she wants me to find the number of her chiropractor, but she can't remember the name. i know it's a combination of her sickness and druggedness that is making her hazy - but she is still ab le to get mad at me for being "unhelpful" that i can't look up the name of her doctor - who's name i don't know. i'm sorry, but i feel crappy and miserable too. i just got re-sick this weekend over a cold i thought was on it's way out. i'm coughy and achy and my throat feels like it's a centimeter wide. i'm sorry that i was rude, but when i am sick, i can't take care of you, i don't always care about what you want. i barely care about what i want.. except for lots and lots of sleep. BLECH.

while my mom is in the bathroom and i have to wait until she's done.. i guess i will blog. let me tell you about the craptacular incident of the weekend. i lost my phone/some f*cker stole my phone. granted.. i probably shouldn't have been doing what i was doing, so maybe it's karmic balance.. although beth gets mad when i say stupid crap like that. it was 3 or 4 am and i decided to do a little gambling - i was in vegas afterall. my phone fell out of my side jacket pocket while i was on the floor, and while frantically searching for it i was repeatedly calling my own number - not so that i could hear it because i knew my phone was on vibrate (dammit!) but hoping someone would pick up. after the 39th bajillionth call or so, someone finally did. some dude, probably wasted, who knows really, but he did say he'd give me my phone back, that he was outside the monte carlo and that he'd meet me in the lobby. i told hiim not to hang up so that i could keep him on the phone and we could find each other easier.. he's like "yea yea.. sure sure"... 30 seconds later he hung up and then turned my phone off. ass.hole. i can't believe that people can be like that. i can't believe that people will lie to your face and then take off with your stuff. god i really hate people sometimes. in the morning i tried calling and teting my phone to see if he'd respond to me saying i'd give him money (why didn't i just say that in the first place!!) but no answer... arrghh!! as of yesterday i've suspended my service, and my phone is placed on the lost/stolen list - so basically it can't be reactivated anyways... the phone is useless. i guess it could be used as a camera, but it's really not that great anyways. who knows.. i don't. but i am angry. like this dude who's friend's sidekick was found/stolen. bleh.. people suck ass.
