Question 4...I'm a media whore.

Question:
Are you excited about the Oscars? Have you seen any good movies lately? What movies do you like?

-Julie from Houston


Answer:
I love the Oscars! Are you kidding me? The clothes, the jewelery, the stars! I'm all over it! I'm hoping that Javier Bardem wins. That No Country For Old Men was so creepy, but I loved it. I wish that Josh Brolin was up for something..he's a delicious piece of man. I liked Gone Baby Gone...even though Ben Affleck directed it. And Juno was cute, but I think that it was a little self-important.

In general, I like mysteries. I love movies about murders and crimes, I love tv shows about that too. Those CSI marathons are my favorite days. Anyway...I also love sappy girly movies, of course...but I usually rent those. In the theater, I like a good thriller. LA Confidential is one of my favorite films of all time.

I'm sure I'll be writing a full report after the show this Sunday...don't you worry!

Update: Oh no. I just realized that I rhymed in my "Title"...that's just bad....

We're All Lost

I keep wanting to quit watching the show. Last season, I told myself I wasn't watching it anymore...but week after week...ugh...there I was in front of the TV again. And then they got me. That final episode. They sucked me back in. They brought it into the future...and they're back home!!

So I sat down last Thursday, along with everyone else in America (or at least 3/4 of America)...and watched. And now. I'm waiting again. Sitting in front of the TV, flipping through bullshit, waiting until 9pm to find out what happens.

What annoys me is that I don't really want to watch. Not really. I want to go out for drinks...or go to sleep early...or read a book...or have sex. Instead, I feel like I'm so invested in these people's lives...the sad sorry prisoners on a crazy island...and I have to know what happens. That's how this show is so successful. We're all trapped on an island as well. The island of the unknown. The island of "What-the-hell-is-going-on-and-how's-it-going-to-end". The island of FRUSTRATION!

I hate them for being so clever. I hate myself for watching it. I only have to wait until 2010. Then I'll be free.

Answer:
Oh…tell me about it sister. I was in your shoes just a short while ago. It's tough getting back out there and "dating"…especially when you have married friends.
My advice to you is to drag your girlfriends out to the bars with you…even if they are married. The more you're out and about, the more you'll be noticed….and approached! Go to the places you frequented when you were still tied. Chances are, you'll meet a more mature crowd at the bar in those places than trying to hit the latest "hot-spot" in your town. (Unless you're looking for a younger fling…then for god's sake…hit the clubs!)
Bottom line is, for all of us single "lethal" women…the only way of getting a date is to put ourselves out there. You've got to be seen, in order to be seen naked!

Which leads me to…sex on the first date…well…that's up to you, darlin'. There's nothing like the feel of a new man, I'll tell you that. I'm sure you've forgotten what it's like to be actually excited by someone new you're in bed with! If you want to get a taste for what the world is like 41 years after your last real date…then I say, GO FOR IT!
