Happy Halloween!!!


Today I am dressed as: ASLEEP ON THE JOB. Aren't I cute!!??!!

I've actually never worn these PJs, but they are pink with penguins... very sexy! I'm going home now, but I wanted to point out that I have been feeling like crap for about 24 hours now and I think I am coming down with something flu-like. BARF!

Movie REVIEW:

Last night I went to a sneak preview of the Borat movie. Holy shit! I was laughing so hard that the migraine I had was pulsing in my head and making me feel like my brain would explode - but I didn't care. This movie was so funny!!! There was one scene involving cockroaches that I think may have gone too far, and one scene involving full frontal nudity of both Borat and Azamat... But for anyone who speaks Armenian or Hebrew this movie is even more hilarious!!! You don't even need half the subtitles... You must all go see this movie and roar with laughter.

Back to my feeling ill... Have had a headache since Sunday night. Yesterday I wore my sunglasses while working at my desk - I looked super fly! And today I have the nausea. I'm thinking positive. I do not want to be sick...

Tonight, I am going to do something BOLD, BRAVE, and perhaps stupid. I'll let you know the outcome.

Thanks Selin!

Yay!!!

O.K................... I am super psyched today!!! I finished writing my script!!! I need to type up the last few scenes, but I wrote it all out on paper today - including the two alternate, choose your own adventure endings :)

Sarit will join the cast, and I am very excited about this.

My weekend was good. Flan & Jason's engagement dinner. It was beautiful. And delicious!

Today, I worked on a movie set. I was one of three people without a chaperone, and definitely the OLDEST. Whoa - my youth took on a whole new meaning today.

It's ALL good.

Now I know why I don't drink

Well, my days of depression are done. I woke up this morning with a new lease on life and a giant puke stain on my white carpet. My bedroom stinks. I've been doing load after load of laundry and I may need to buy a new comforter.

Red wine and sushi come up REALLY ugly.

But - I feel super. No hangover.

My belt just fell off my chair and scared the shit out of me.

Went for sushi dinner with Abby, and then to a party at a friend's. I haven't puked since my 24th birthday... and that was only because I thought I was smoking a cigarette... EWWWWW!!!!

And I have wicked cool black nails because now I am goth. OK, I am not goth at all... but my nails can pretend they are.

I'm buying a skirt today. It's the CUTEST skirt...

Thank goodness for carpet stain remover. It works!!!

Movie Review

Last night I saw the film "The Science of Sleep." What a delicious film! I felt like maybe I was on drugs for two hours (I wasn't)... You also have to watch this movie with an open, unclouded mind. At first, I was trying very hard to figure out what was happening, what scene was a "dream" and what scene was "reality." But really, it's also very FUNNY and there were many scenes where I found myself laughing out loud and not caring how noisy I was.

Gabriel Garcia Bernal is so cute to watch and sexy with his accent, but plays a totally loveable nutjob - definitely the kind of guy I think I've found myself attracted to before once or twice.

And now, I am going to leave the office and head to the Tbombs for an evening of most probably arguements. Yippy!!! Linda was being so strange on the phone this afternoon I can only imagine what's coming my way over a bowl of FRESH bean soup (yay - more yummy bean soup!)

Greetings from the land of the LAZY

OK. I promised myself that tonight I would work on my show. Instead I have spent the evening (I only got home at 10:30) uploading albums Corey gave me into my ITunes, and now I am OBSSESSED with listening to Thom Yorke's album. It rocks!!!

Why I am blocked I do not know... I think partially it is because I am wishing something exciting would happen in my real life... I know I could just make things up. A lot of my show is made up and just based "loosely" on reality - except for being dumped over chicken - that's all real.

My mom made bean soup. I tried it and it was DELISH. I was really surprised as I am not usually a bean person... yum. I want more now please.

So I signed into my Jdate email addy to see if any weirdos had written, or added me to their msn... One guy starts chatting me up and asks me what I do for a living... "Well, I'm an advertising manager for a consumer electronics distributor" - oh I hope it's not the one near Leon's... UM THERE'S A WAY TO WIN A GIRL OVER: CRITICIZE THE COMPANY SHE WORKS FOR WITHIN THE FIRST FIVE MINUTES. This could be total show material...

Or, my friend... her friend at work went away for work and while she was gone asked her sister to pass by her condo and her bf of 4 years was having a romantic candlelight dinner with another woman... Now that's classy!

Or - I get an email from some jdate dude asking me out - we've already gone out!!! I was not into him but apparently not even memorable... So I mention that we've met on a double date with Carly and he writes back to ask me if Carly is still single.

This is why internet dating doesn't work. The only available men are freaks!!

Or the other week I get an email from a guy who tells me he's never been on jdate before, describes what he does and I realize it's my friend's friend's BOYFRIEND. Well, guess who got busted!!!

Am I ranting a little??? Sorry...

What a week!

My pants fit!

Can I get a Hallelujah???

I couldn't decide what to wear on this dreary, cold, rainy Montreal day... I pulled the pants off the hanger with a little fear... I pulled them on, zipped them up and PRESTO! THEY FIT! Nothing bulges over the sides, they sit low enough to wear heels. YAY!

I am currently knee deep in this nerdy boy book series about the wizard who consults to the polive about supernatural cases. It's very addictive.

My nails are pretty because I don't bite them anymore, and I even put on pretty nail polish. Right now, I am looking for a super dark purple that looks black. Any suggestions?

And my crazy short bangs are growing out.

Officially a flake

Yes - I know it's not really a big surprise. Today - I really amazed myself.

My friend Val came to interview at AVS this morning. She happened to arrive at my office when I did so I went to sit in her car for a while and catch up.

At 3pm, I had to go visit one of my suppliers. I put on my coat, picked up my purse. Went to reach for my keys.... WHERE THE FUCK WERE MY KEYS??? My first instinct was that I forgot them in Val's car. I called her, called my mom to get the spare set she keeps for me for moments of stupidity like this... Turns out I had just left my keys in the car because apparently I was really excited to see Val at 8:20am.

What a dummy I am!!

Happy Long Weekend!

I'm so glad it's Friday. This week - although a short one - has been really hectic and didn't involve nearly enough sleep time. At 3pm, I am off for a weekend with the fam where I will shop until I drop.

I am hoping to buy the following:
  • 2 skirts
  • 4 pairs of pants
  • Some books
  • Black & Pink Puma's
  • New bottle of my perfume

And who knows what else... I will know when I see it...

I also will be finishing my script this weekend, which means I will have to type it up next week. Doesn't matter... I'll find the time...

OK - mortifying story - I've done it again. I packed a small overnight back with all my shit and brought it to my parents so that they could pack it in the suitcase. My mother found condoms in the bag that I totally forgot about. They were from when Selin and I went to the country with boys and I thought perhaps, maybe, but alas, nothing... So my mother found my condoms and they aren't even being used!!! Sheesh!

I let a stranger cut my hair!




OK... I let a stranger cut my hair. That pic is of the weird bowl coif they gave me for the 1964 scene in the movie. They also gave me a suit completely made of wool (which I am allergic to) and I had to smoke during the scene. OK, I didn't HAVE to smoke, but they asked if I would, so I said fine... And now I am CURED. I felt so absolutely gross after. I went home took a shower and curled up on the couch with the giant headache I had - and still have this morning.

This hair is going to be so damn high maintenance...
