B-A-N-A-N-A-S

Welcome to the entertainment portion of this wonderful blog. As someone who spends a lot of time around celebs, my first post is dedicated to a famous friend. He can be spotted all around NYC going to glamous parties and rubbing elbows with the rich and famous. You can find this "social" at Cain on a random Wednesday or hanging out with Paris Hilton at Bungalow 8. He was recently spotted with Rachel and Olivia at a movie premiere party. Can't nobody hold him down, oh no. He gots to keep on moving...

a quick introduction...

oprah, rihanna, and me

this video just showed up on the news in memphis, and i liked what oprah had to say to rihanna.

HE WILL HIT YOU AGAIN!!!!

it is sad but true. and i hope rihanna is listening

i started out with my rihanna obsession as a joke because i liked that song SOS. then after two concerts, a cd, an autographed picture, and a stalking outside of H&M which led to my personal rihanna photo collection... i have turned into something of a real no joke fan.

i was surprised by how affected i was by the photos of her broken face, but it really did make me sad. it is sad and a little disappointing that they are back together and that stoopid chris brown seems to just be playing in miami and not really showing remorse. these two kids are young, and she is going to break up with him eventually.... just like my other fake to real celebrity obsession, TINA TURNER.

anyway, thats my two cents.  whats the good of having a blog if i dont get to talk about rihanna?????

ctm.

dogs who kiss cats

First things first, dogs kiss cats. We all know it happens, even if we don't know how.

This first post from your animal correspondent attempts to demystify this heart-warming and agonizing phenomena:

1. The curious nuzzle.

Kissing often begins with a cautious sniff. Soon that sniff turns into nuzzling. Why do animals with wet noses insist on touching them to the subject of their sniffs? It's the first step in kissing!

2. Sniff back.

Truth-be-told, cats kiss dogs, too. That pup's first investigations often ignites the curiosity of the cat as well. Sometimes you can even catch them nose-to-nose.

3. What happens next...

Dogs will be dogs, and sometimes that delicate snuffle can turn into a full-on tornado of tongue. Beware kitties--those dogs know no boundaries!

4. OC it ended that way.

Of course, no all bad first experiences put these kitties and puppies off each other for too long. Pretty soon, you'll find them antiquing together and getting their portraits taken in front of their summer cabin on Fire Island--life can end up so beautifully for those brave enough to try!

what is kismet doing?

Kismet is normally pretty quiet. But sometimes he sees something in the back yard for front yard that catches his attention and he just won't shut up about it. He posted up right there in front of the back door and barked and barked. I grabbed his leash and took him out to see what it was he was popping off about, but he just went out and looked around and came back in. What a freakshow.

whats for lunch?????

homemade chicken and rice

cheddar cubes

ritz crackers

veggies left over from wedding food + ranch dip

diet coke

i know what you're thinking...

...being laid off must be like a dream come true. no alarm clocks waking you up in the morning, just relaxing sleep every day until you arise from your slumber naturally and peacefully, ready to take on another day of doing anything you want, without the burden of paychecks or the security of health insurance. well, you're wrong.

this is what goes on below my window every morning starting from 8am (sometimes they get antsy and jump in around 7.45am) until i give up on any chance of ever being happy again. what you might not be able to tell from this photo is that the bulldozer's favorite thing to do is slam its shovel down on those metal plates, and its second favorite thing is to push them around on the asphalt. you might also be interested to know that the bus in the bottom of the picture is what they call a 'kneeling bus'. that means it lowers itself down to the curb edge like a noble steed, emitting a sound that can only be likened to a moose giving birth to a chainsaw. two chainsaws. chainsaw twins. it stops by about every 10 minutes or so.

i dont know what i did to deserve this, but it helps to share.
