Thanks for reading...

Thanks so much to everyone who has indulged me this last year and read and kept up with my Love Handles journey... the final one is up and ready to read and I have to admit, I am a lot relieved... I had no idea putting myself out there would be as frustrating, cathartic, tantrum inducing and ultimately freeing as it was... I suggest everyone take some time to look inside themselves and figure out the hows and whys they tick and learn to live outside their comfort zones, just not in such a public way!

So here it is...

do i know how lucky i am?

Dear Bob,
Here is your horoscope
for Wednesday, January 11:

Are you fully aware of how lucky you are? There are some amazing people in your life who have been guiding forces and inspirations on your path. In fact, some of the most difficult ones have taught you the most.

Here's your one chance Fancy!!!

A picture is worth a thousand words! I went to a taping of one of my favorite shows thanks to my friend Joanna (who ironically I did not take a pic with) and got to meet one of my idols... Reba McEntire... Fancy has always been one of my favorite songs to perform at karaoke... and yes, I do mean perform! (just click on them if you want to see them larger)

So Pure...

You from new york,
You are so relevant.
You reduce me to cosmic tears.

Luminous moreso than most anyone.
Unapologetically alive.
Knot in my stomach,
And lump in my throat.

I love you when you dance,
When you freestyle in trance,
So pure, such an expression.

Supposed former infatuation junkie.
I sink three pointers,
And you wax poetically.

I love you when you dance,
When you freestyle in trance,
So pure, such an expression.

Let’s grease the wheel over tea.
Let’s discuss things in confidence.
Let’s be outspoken, let’s be ridiculous,
Let’s solve all the worlds problems.

I love you when you dance,
When you freestyle in trace,
So pure, such an expression.

Happy New Year!

This was easily one of the greatest New Year's celebrations ever... Shannon was asked to host a private party at Tangerine in Las Vegas and she took me as her guest... they flew us out and put us up in a suite and took amazing care of us... Friday night we went to the Black Eyed Peas concert at Mandalay Bay... then we danced the night away at Pure... Saturday she won first place and $54,000 in Caesar's first ever poker tournament... By midnight Saturday, we were all on cloud nine as the clock struck twelve and kisses flew around the room like butterflies... The best part of it all, was being surrounded by some of my favorite friends and my little sister Amy who lit up the room in her sparkly red dress...

I hope your new year's was just as spectacular whether it was a quiet intimate evening with your lover or a party to end all parties... here's to 2006!!! xox

How were your holidays?

How my friends spent the holidays...


Erica, Steve and Kyle rang it in at The Chateau Marmont...

While Ashley was growing a baby in her stomach, Pete was growing a beard!


Gail and Marcus got engaged...


Steven, Bonnie, Douglas and Basia took in the Miami sunset...

Mateo broke out in song as Woodie conducted...

Cancer Horoscope for week of January 5, 2006

Verticle Oracle card Cancer (June 21-July 22)
There's no delicate way to say this, so please stop reading and come back next week if you're offended by graphic references to pleasure. According to my analysis of the long-term astrological omens, you're on tap to experience more orgasms in 2006 than you have in any previous year. On average, your climaxes are also likely to be longer and more intense. Other varieties of bliss, rapture, and joy will probably occur at record levels, as well. Think you can handle it?

I'll take it!

Shannon Elizabeth Takes On Tangerine

Know When To Hold 'Em In 2006
By Joel Stratte-McClure

It was definitely considered chic to get out of town on New Year's Eve to party in Las Vegas.

One Vegas hot spot was the new multimillion-dollar poker room at Caesars Palace, where Pure Nightclub held a daylong tournament. Hosts were Nicky Hilton and "Entourage's" Kevin Connolly. Others attending included Shannon Elizabeth, Lance Bass, Jennifer Tilly, Benjamin McKenzie, Ashton Holmes and some professional card players.


Recently divorced Elizabeth, who wore a diamond on her left ring finger, was the big winner and took home $54,747.

What was the first thing the vegetarian and animal-loving actress did with her winnings? Ordered a healthy room-service dinner before changing into a saucy flowered corset top, black skirt and knee-high boots to host a New Year's Eve party at the Tangerine Lounge & Nightclub, arriving with 12 close friends in tow. Elizabeth stayed close to "good friend" Bass throughout the evening but joined DJ Grandmaster Flash for the New Year countdown. But she refused to spray the crowd with champagne when the clock struck midnight.

"I hate it when someone does that to me," Elizabeth said.

That was just one of the highlights from my New Year's Eve... how was yours??
