Well, they were my favorites when I was 15! Paul McCartney is 66 today. Sixty-six is an excellent age for a man, or so MrB tells me. And my beloved John Taylor of Duran Duran will turn 48 on Friday. Hawt! I had good taste as a teenager, didn’t I? UPDATED TO ADD: McGone points…

Oh, Happy Day
My husband and I started dating exactly 10 years ago today. I don’t know if this is from 1998, but it’s probably close enough. Also, happy birthday to GeorgeB! GeorgeB
More New Year’s Photos
Finally, I have gotten the rest of the photos from my New Year’s Eve/Birthday Party at Butter. I will share a few. First, a couple of additional looks at my vintage Versace/Little Bo Peep dress. (And though I usually don’t do this, you can click on the photos to enlarge.) It had a nice circle…
Please, Mr. Postmaster!
I got a envelope from the Postmaster today. On the outside it said, “Dear Valued Postal Customer: I want to extend my sincere apology as your Postmaster for the enclosed document that was inadvertently damaged in handling by your Postal Service.” This was the enclosed document: Yes, that is the entire document that I received…
New Year’s Eve With Altamira
Gorgeous blogger Altamira joined us for New Year’s with his lovely friend Lola. He’s posted a funny action photo of me dancing my hair off (literally!) to my favorite song, Smells Like Teen Spirit. Check it out! And, yes, Dita Von Teese and I use the same tanning salon. UPDATED TO ADD: I’ve decided that…

Show Some Respect, Bitches!
I’m another year older today and I think I’ve hit the age where I can scream at disrespectful youngsters and say things like “kids these days!” So mind your manners or you will rue the day I was born. Anyway, here’s a photo of Mom, aka BarbaraB, taken just over 40 years ago. I was…
Happy Birthday, Madonna
Madonna is 49 today, and I remember listening to her when she was 26. To be exact, I remember listening to her on vinyl, in the basement of my parents’ house, with my friend Brian whom I tutored in Spanish. I also remember going to her show at Radio City instead of my high school…
Happy Birthday, Husband
Wishing a very happy birthday to my wonderful husband! (Yes, I know the photo is of our wedding cake, but no birthday cake pictures were immediately available.)
Happy Birthday, Terri Berry!
Happy birthday to my gorgeous sister! Terri changed her last name when she got married. (I did not, but I offered to let my husband change his to mine. He didn’t take me up on that. Silly man!) Anyway, I was hoping she’d marry a guy whose last name was Strawberry. Even I would change…
