Awww, look, I got a Christmas card from Wipeout today! I also got a Christmas card from Will Leitch and my mom, but this one is my favorite. Ballsy!

Ok, so now I just opened the little make-up case that I keep inside my purse but never use because I’m way too lazy for re-application (as if!), and I found a small package of Tums. “Mmmmm!,” thought I, and immediately popped one in my mouth as though it were a delicious candy snack.

I’ve got problems.

Why have I had the theme song to “Dear John” stuck in my head literally all day today? Perhaps a better question, why do I seemingly know all of the lyrics to the “Dear John” theme song?

People are getting a little cheeky around here! For the record, those post-its say “Time is on my side — The Rolling Stones” and “Time won’t let me — The Outsiders.” I have no idea what any of it means, either.

a little grinchy, a little not

I’m not all that into Christmas. Since I’m gay-married to a Jewish guy (registered domestic partners! so swell), we try not to get too Jesus-y at home. Although I do insist on having a tree every year, mostly because I love the way it smells and also because where else would I hang my Remember The Alamo!, Jesus-in-a-walnut-shell, and teddy-bear-on-the-chamber-pot ornaments?

Anyway, besides getting drunk everyday for 3 weeks straight and presentspresentspresents, the two things I really do actually love about Christmas are:

1. Island Night

and

2. Darlene Love

Island Night is too cutesy and inter-religious-gay-marriage-ish and insidery for me to explain here (I wouldn’t want to make you barf with the adorable fake holiday inventions of my relationship), but Darlene Love is someone we can all universally worship. I first saw Ms. Love perform when I was in high school (we’re talking, like, 1993 here, people). My friend Pamela and I went to see Ray Charles at Radio City, and she opened the show. Needless to say, it was love at first sight. And is there any better Christmas song EVER than Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)?

This year Darlene will be doing her annual appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman on the 23rd. If you won’t be home, set the dvr now. Because Darlene Love OWNS Christmas.

Seriously, I love her.

so very bored

I think that I might need to follow some new people on here because I’m bored. Things I’m into include sea creatures (with a focus on lobsters as pets), fake meat, medical curiosities, pasta machines, people who give their children stupid names, feet, cults, menus planned around pickles, animals using sign language, game shows, war fiction, and sports that are not basketball.

NOT into: Gadgets, eggs, basketball.

So who should I be following? Suggestions?

So, since I’m fairlyyyy certain that I’m the only loser who sat at home last night guzzling White Russians while watching the, um, tree-lighting at Rockefeller Center on television (I know, so cool am I), I decided to try to look for a photo of Aretha Franklin from the event so that I could point out how she looked like a red, sparkly grizzly bear. The world needed to see her in all her fabulous ursine glory. (Service-y!). But instead. I stumbled upon THIS. And as a result, Aretha’s get-up from last night will have to remain on hold, since at the moment I’m slightly, um, preoccupied. I’m not smart enough with the computer, so someone, please, please tell me that this is photoshopped and not real? Please? (And in the meantime, go find her sparkly grizzly bear outfit from last night for yourselves. It’s pretty fantastic).
