In case you don't read Perez...

After a long tearful, dreary, and very depressing day, I survived Christmas (with the help of my Mr. Big- naturally). Turns out, having Christmas without my mother is not as relaxing or as fun as I imagined it would be. This morning, after not sleeping a wink, I was to be at work at 9 AM. What i discovered is that there is no better thing to do when one is brain-dead and emotionally spent than to find humor among the pages of Perez. I wanted to share the love so I post one of his most interesting post.


She must be devastated!

Paris Hilton's grandfather, Barron Hilton, announced Wednesday that he's giving away almost all his fortune to charity!

The hotel tycoon is donating 97% of his 2.3 billion worth to the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, named after the initial Hilton that founded the global hotel chain in 1919 with a small hotel in Cisco, Texas.

That means that Barron's kids and grandkids are gonna be left with just $69 million to split amongst them. AND they have to pay taxes on that!

Pennies!

Dang. We kinda feel sorry for Paris. Don't U?

But, then again, the people of the world are over $2 billion richer now!

Hopefully the Conrad N. Hilton foundation will distribute the money wisely.





Is that not great or what? Not like Paris needs any extra money. However, the fact that the grandfather is saying a public, "FU" to his family is classic. Plus, he is doing what he should- giving his money to a better cause.

I plan on playing the $20 New Year lottery. 4 lucky winners win a million dollars. 500 win $1000. If I win anything, I plan on donating half to charity. I would have good Karma for life!!! Here's hoping I win. My credit cards totally need the help!



In other news, I say Charlie Wilson's War this evening. An absolutely wonderful movie despite the fact Charlie Wilson served as a Texan congressman. He was a "party" man and a womanizer so I suppose he made up for it. It's a very smart movie that, in a round about way, puts light on the whole war on Iraq. True story. Tom Hanks deserves another Oscar. He was brilliant in the movie. And my God, Julia's body is amazing looking. Here's hoping I look that good after 3 children.

Loves!

I would like to thank the Academy



And by Academy, I mean Jaime Walker. Without her help, I do not think I would have been as successful this quarter as I was. On Wednesday past, my final work was reviewed by a panel of 3 professionals, 2 copywriters and one art director. They LOVED J's and my group work, so much so they gave us each $20.00 for doing "kick ass work"-(a direct quote from the very attractive, red hair asshole/ redneck copywriter). Then, I showed them my Ga State and M&Ms campaigns and they LOVED LOVED LOVED both of them! In this industry, it's hard to find anyone who LOVES anything, especially 3 of them. All 3 told me my writing was beautiful, very poetic, and very inspiring. So, although I realize I have way more hard work ahead of me and that one compliment does not define me by any means, I am extremely proud of myself. This past Wednesday was a wonderful ending to a school that has taught me so much.

A couple of months ago, when Jerry Seinfeld accepted a comedian award, he joked that, "...the comedian should be the only one getting awards. We are the only ones that have to actually think of something original and funny, and interesting to say. Do you know how hard that is?"

Yes, yes I do.

Loves!

p.s. thank you Jaime for being a wonderful friend- inside and out of school. I am always here for you. Always.
Loves forever

I need more Sex

I admit, I got goosebumps after the first 5 times watching the trailer. But, hello! Carrie is wearing the ugliest wedding dress ever! And does she have to get married? The show ended perfectly! Here's hoping the movie won't fuck everything up.

Here's the first trailer for the movie. It just came out this evening and thanks to my gay boyfriend, Perez, I was able to share the love. Also, I would like everyone to go to the official Sex and the City movie website and see who was the first person to post a comment. That would be me ")

Comments on the movie?
I think SJP looks adorable in the first 5 seconds (and her hair looks amazing!) but the pics US Weekly has been posting scream "Hasbeen." I really hope this movie doesnt suck. I'll still be the first one at the theater though- carrying a very strong martini.

Loves!
