I got a wonderful bit of news (via e-mail) from my ex-girlfriend Risha today. She and another dear old friend (Mandi) fresh back from a trip to Hollywood (where they hob-nobbed with the likes of Leslie Nielsen and Mike Myers) are going to write a screen-play! They are brilliant and beautiful women and I'm eager to see their names in lights! I learned priceless life-lessons from my time with Risha and Mandi... I'm sure what they write will inspire and entertain many people. I'm so, so excited for them. I want this to be their time.

Jeff (my friend who portrays Varla Jean Merman) called and left a voicemail telling me how he was robbed on Mardi Gras night! He was just about the corner from where he and his wife live... walking back from getting some chicken... having waited in line for nearly an hour. A man came up to him, put a gun in his face and said "gimme the chicken and empty your pockets". Jeff said, "I just waited 45 minutes for this food and I'm hungry... you can have my cell-phone and wallet." This is a true story!

I made low-carb biscuits and used them as hamburger buns (they tasted pretty bland). I also used veggie cream cheese in the fat-free sugar-free dessert... I'll just use regular cream cheese from now on. Fat equals flavor.

Philip and I watched FRIENDS, WILL AND GRACE and THE APPRENTICE, of course. I'm so not a business-minded person that seeing all these people compete in a biz environment is very entertaining... but very uncomfortable, too. I could NEVER excel in such a situation.

The cyber-terrorist who is running a smear-campaign on guyprofiles.com is at it full-force. He'll not only post rude messages to me... he'll also post scathing notes on other peoples' boards and sign MY screen-name to them. It's awful. I keep trying to check the site often so I can post "damage control" notes... but it's exhausting. I just pray that the sick freak will stop doing it... and that people understand I would never be so cruel.

But I did find a cute, funny penpal from guyprofiles.com today (from Florida). Shout-out to you, G! Thank goodness there ARE some nice people out there.
