BRIDGET JONES, SFJ AND OTHER FUN TIDBITS

even tho miss meg was coughing up a lung, and wasn't supposed to go out, how could she resist? the manolo, he would have approved. last week i swigged down my robutussin, donned my jimmy choos, and fave auburn mascara, and went bravely out into the night for an intimate screening of the new bridget jones movie (i think there were 40 of us there?) for the nantucket film festival in the basement of the bryant park hotel. what a lovely little room that is. renee zellweger came and opened the eve in a lovely green dress telling us how much fun she had making the movie, and helen fielding did a q&a afterward. both were extremely charming and sweet as was the movie. but that hugh grant. oh he is BAD. and when i say that i say it with my most nasal michigan accent accentuating the Aaaaa and drawing it all the way out. oh he plays such a cad in that movie and it looks so natural for him. oh goodness. we headed upstairs afterwards for a little nosh then i went to meet up w/my honey and met the SFJ and the cowboy/poodle and drew. was v. fun but then the robitussin that i had elegantly been swilling from the bottle started to kick in and i had to beeline it to bed before i fell asleep standing up. ew.

do you think one day he might list me in his sidebar of blogs? i can only wish and dream!

THE MENS THEY ALWAYS ASK ME

good shoe questions. where do i get navy chuck taylor low-tops? what vintage store will i find men's dress shoes with a thin sole, roundish toe and not a big clunky sole that everyone wears these days?

sigh.

i wish i knew more about the mens. i am going to redouble my research efforts in an attempt to meet the needs of this very important constituency. in the meantime, hit INA men for vintage shoes or any salvation army in the midwest or thrift vintage shops in LA--you know the one i like the best in los feliz-- squaresville--they have the mens too.

OH MY SWEETIES!

i have missed you so! in the time i've been away, i had a birthday, i discovered "gators" from shelley steffee (more to come on these soon--you will freak because they are so major), interviewed the fabulous mr david gensler of the kdu and got bronchitis! so gauche the coughing i must say!

anyhoo, it has been a blast even thought the sad man did not win a few weeks back. all i can say my dearies is to be vigilant, take care of yourselves and speak out when you have an opportunity.

and now. on my latest discovery. the manolo. i have even started talking in sentences beginning "the manolo says". which you will too once you get addicted to one of the most hilarious blogs i have ever seen. must-read my dear sweeties!

HANG ON TO YOUR HATS, YOUR ROUND-TOED PUMPS AND YOUR FLAGS

it's going to be a wild four-year ride!

DID YOU SEE IT?

wheeeeee!
