Pacific Sea Nettle

This is one of my favorite things to see in an aquarium. They epitomize grace, beauty, and remind me of the speed in which we should all live-slow.

Delicious in Hotlanta

After I finished up Comic-Con, I hopped on a train and headed back to LA where I got to spend 1.5 delightful days with my thug dogs. After much belly rubbing, I hopped on a plane for a screen test in Hotlanta. The first thing I said when I got off the plane at 7:30 pm, 'gawd it is humid!' The temp read 72, but with humidity hitting 3 digits, it felt more like hell. West coast people aren't used to this kind of weather, and although I've been privy to heat, I always try and block out why this place is called Hotlanta!

Now to explain the not so great food pic. You all know I am a lady of class and manners...haha! Sorry, I can't even finish that line. Anyhow, I would usually never put up a pic of food I have eaten as it looks gross, but this lunch consisting of a veggie melt and tater tots was BOMB!!!! I had to share! Now being a vegetarian for about 10 years, I've all walks of pitiful attempts at nmaking veggie food flavorful, but nothing I have had in recent memory has been this artery cloggingly delicious! This melt, which is served in a bar/restaurant called The Vortex in midtown, said came with fries or tater tots. Stop, u have me at tater tots. Who doesn't love food named after small, youthful human beings? So I decide on the melt thinking it'll come with a patty and grilled veggies. Oh how I was wrong, the magic is only beginning. With somemelted cheese, peppers, mushroom, onions and butter soaked then toasted rye bread, I felt like god had reached down and blessed tghe skillet with his spit, it was so good! I mean yes, m arteries aren't happy I took this tiny trip down kill myself with food lane, but I've gotta live, especially in a place known to make people want to punch their own faces in so they could stay in an air conditioned place like a hospital.

With my test done, which btw went swimmingly, I am now at the aquarium. I known I'm such a tourist! Anyhow, supposedly it is the largest aquarium in the US if not world. Well gargantuan is what I want, I'm american afterall. Bring on the fishes. I do wonder, being a west coaster and a feequent visitor to monterey bay aquairium, how will it compare? And why charge adults $27 per visit? It is as if I am empliyed or something, making dozens of dollars a year. Listen, can someone tell the aquarium that there is a recession, unemployment is high, and gas is record breaking? Can we negotiate a $20 fee? I should stop blogginh and go to the aquairium, as every minute counts when u have 2 hours and are paying $27. I wonder why people call me cheap. ;)

Davey Jones

He looked good at Comic-Con, and considering the heat and the weight of his 'calamari', he disnt smell that nice... :(

Reelz Channel

Hey everyone, it has been a busy couple weeks, with auditions, meetings, and not having my contract renewed by Reelz. :( that means I will no longer be hosting 'The Big Tease' so please do not tune in to me on that channel.

The run was fun but Reelz has some financial difficulty and did a large round of layoffs, and with my contract coming up for renewal, they decided not to have me come back.

Oh well, so is the business. But no worries, I already have many things brewing and will let you know of them as soon as I do!

This is a very exciting time in my life where I have time to persue other interests and can open myself up to other networks, and yes, I am already in talks!

I am now headed to Comic-Con in San Diego! I am extremely excited, and decided to take the surfliner train down. All would be fine, except the train ended up being 55 min late, and the conductors have just gotten on the PA system saying they're sorry but we're gonna have to unload and then reload before we can get to San Diego. This is so funny! If something can go wrong, you can bet your dollar it will! :)

Oh and I am currently obsessed with Mad Men on AMC. Right now it is holding me over until DEXTER season 2 arrives on DVD. Hurry up! It is embarrassing how much I love TV. :) more from Comic-Con if I get down there....

My weekend

Of pure debauchery...I have spent two nights in a row out in west hollywood. That's LA's gay and going out area. It is my good friend Manuel's birthday and we had to celebrate like gay men do, cause he's gay. And yes, on the weekends, the bridge and tunnel crowd descend like bees to a honey pot on weho. I went to the abbey, a very popular bar, twice and a gay dance club called Rage-it was asian boy night. I had to go! It has been a while since I saw young sweaty muscles gyrating to drum and bass. Not only do they gyrate, there was this one cheeky go-go dancer that pulled his only piece of 'dance wardrobe' down half past his butt crack, leaned on to a rail, looked back I guess he thought seductively, and started thrusting the ass up. Hmmm...guess this dancer took the 'face down, ass up' literally. Plus if you like his dancing, you give him a dollar. Yes, I patronize wonderful and reputable establishments. And since I did that, I am now good. Yes, they all stuff.
