It started out cloudy and cool today, but now I see the sun peeking out. Confusing. So, before I go out this evening, I will check The Fucking Weather for the latest forecast. My gorgeous blogging friend Tina pointed out this bit of highlariousness to me. When I checked a few minutes ago, the site…

Devilish Times With Gorgeous Friends
Gorgeous blogger Princess Poochie came to New York this weekend, and I was delighted to spend quality time with her. We took a mini-jaunt to Riverdale to visit my gorgeous friends Jen and Amanda. I was most entertained by the name of the train stop — Spuyten Duyvil — which is an old Dutch phrase…
My Mind Is Blown
Two of my favorite people together: my gorgeous friend Kara Baby and Law & Order SVU‘s Detective John Munch (Richard Belzer). Sorry I stole your Facebook photo, Kara Baby. I couldn’t help myself. UPDATED TO ADD: Kara Baby (aka Finn the Pug in the comments) notes that Munch KISSED HER HAND! I’m swooning.
Blondie, Beatles, Bronski, Duran, Nirvana
Gorgeous blogger Pretty in Black tagged me to write about five albums that changed my life. Trivia: I had the first four on vinyl. 1. Parallel Lines by Blondie was one of the first albums I ever owned. As I recall, my grandfather Sam got it for me when I was about 11. I can’t…
Dressing Up for Robin Hood

One hundred percent of the money donated goes directly to people in need because Robin Hood’s Board of Directors underwrites all fund-raising and administrative expenses. Jon Stewart hosted the evening and the Black Eyed…

This…
Do You Want It Wrinkly or Ignorant?
A few months ago, someone submitted a comment to this blog accusing me of being a “wrinkly slut.” My first reaction was to say, “Mom, that’s the pot calling the kettle black!” I kid, I kid. My mother is smooth and chaste. In reality, my first reaction was to say, “‘Wrinkly Slut’ would be a…
Dinner and Drinks, Zig-Zag Edition
At dinner last night, my gorgeous friend Angela had the bartender do a customized margarita in my honor. We haven’t finalized the recipe yet, so I can’t reveal the blog-inspired name of my drink. It’s not the WendyB. Drink by AngelaTop by Francis by Christian Francis Roth Enchiladas by Papatzul
Zang Toi, Now in Cartoon Form
I previously mentioned that my designing friend Zang Toi made a guest appearance on The Real Housewives of New York City. Thanks to that, he’s now in cartoon form in this Real Housewives parody. I want all my friends to have cartoon alter-egos!
I Think Sartre Would Agree
Stepson to WendyB, last night: “Hell is a DVD, a DVD player and ten remotes that don’t work.” We never did get to watch the movie.
