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.

Question 3....Divorcee.

Question:
i'm a 63 year old woman and i recently divorced my husband. i'm fairly attractive and in pretty good shape but i'm really nervous about going out and meeting men. all of my friends are married still. the last time i dated i was 22 years old. things are so different now. any suggestions on where to go to meet single men my age?
will i be expected to have sex on the first date?!

-miss "used-to-be-mrs."


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!

Question 2...

Thanks again, everyone...for sending questions. I'm excited to "mentor" everyone on how to live lethal!

Question:
What advice would you give a young man, say in his mid 30's, who's interested in approaching an older cougar like yourself?
-Victor Von Hayes

Answer:
Thanks for the compliment Victor, if that's your real name.... You are in your mid 30's, huh? I think you can keep up with a woman like me.

My first piece of advice is for you to be honest. As I've mentioned in the past…I know a thing or two about men. I know when one is lying to me…and that's a MAJOR turn-off.

Second, be polite and respectful…but show me you're a man who knows what he wants. What I mean is, don't come up and grab my ass (not yet anyway)…but find a way to let me know what you're interested in. More than likely, an older woman will be flattered by your admiration, but she may take it as more of a passing fancy. Don't be shy with your intentions. She may be willing to take you on the ride of your life.

Question 1...and an update

Hello all. I'm back!

I was in Los Angeles for a week with some friends. We met Jillian Barbarie...who is SO cute! She was just adorable, and she looks incredible for having a baby only 6 months ago! She doesn't look a bit different than she did before. I dont know if you guys know who she is, but she's does the weather for Fox NFL Football.


So, I'm finally back home, and rested from the horrordays...um...i mean holidays. It's good to have some down time for the next few months. I need to get back into my blogging. I miss you guys!!!

So I know i mentioned before I left that I was going to be trying something new. A little Q&A type thing. And guess what...I've already gotten about 12 questions from my loyal fans out there! Thanks everyone...

Anyway, I'm going to start out with the first question I recieved...from a women in Chicago. She requested I only call her "Alice"...but here is her question, and my answer. Keep sending yours in...I'll be posting as much as possible with my wise and lethal answers!

QUESTION:
recently i met a man that's much younger than me.
i'm 55 and he's 32. we have a great time together and the best sex of my life. he seems to really be into me. i'm worried though about what will happen in the future. he'll probably want to have kids eventually. i've already had mine. do you think it's better that i break it off now before we go any further in our relationship? i'm having such a great time.
---alice


ANSWER:
Look. If you can emotionally deal with the fact that sometime down the line he may end up leaving you for the monotony of a married life with two kids, a picket fence and a dog…then keep doing what you are doing! If you're having a great time, and he is too, there's really no reason to break it off. Hell, you don't know he wants kids. He may be happy in the situation he's in, just like you are.

There's no edict out there that says you can't have fun…in fact, there's a "lethal" edict that I'm setting for that mandates you have fun…so have it!

Well, signing off for today...I'll be back. Talk to you tonight on my Live Chat -- open for business once again!

New Beginnings

So...as I state in my new website description...I'm changing up the blog a bit. I'll still be blah blah blah-ing my regular everyday bullshit....but I'm also planning to answer any of your questions that you may have. Since I've been doing my Live Chat...I've noticed that a lot of you out there want my advice on things. Love, life, what to wear to the Holiday Party....I'm here to answer it all. Just email me (info@lethallady.com), or reply to a post that I have on the blog. Send me your questions...I'll be sitting around, with a glass of....well....of something waiting for you....

Happy Holiday

Hello All...

Don't forget about me!!! I'm so sorry I've been MISSING IN ACTION! But I'm still here. I'm still alive (hardy har). I'm working to re-format my blog and website....and I'm ready to unveil it at the start of the New Year!

Check back. I'm coming back in full lethal force...

Happy holidays and I'll chat again soon!

Can Paris Can Can?

So lucky for me, I got invited to the special unveiling of Paris Hilton's perfume, Can Can, at Macy's here in Philly. I actually got to meet her before she want on...being that I have a special "in" at the perfume counter at Macy's. I expected here to be snobby...honestly...she doesn't seem like the kind of person that I'd want to actually sit down and talk with. But once I met her, I was really pleasantly surprised. She was witty, cute and really very sweet.

There were so many people outside waiting to see her. Hundreds upon hundreds. There was a nun there?! Who knew?

Regardless...I had a great time, and the perfume isn't half bad! I got only one shot with my camera (I always forget it's in my purse)...but you can see a million others out there on the web. So...whatever.

Computer Trauma

So I spent two hours on the phone with "Ray" from Verizon Internet last night and figured out what was wrong with my laptop. It seems that ebizwebpages (where my Chat Line website is hooked through) doesn't allow me to connect with a MAC....so I dug out my old old old 2001 HP PC Laptop to try to use that. Now I'm having trouble trying to download JAVA patches in order to open up the Live Chat Line on Firefox Browser. I don't know what the hell to do next. I spent all that money on a MAC laptop and it doesn't even work with the chat line.

UGH.

What is there to do but go out and buy a new computer? I thought about getting the Geek Squad out here to fix it, but...what does that do? Delay my getting a new computer for a few weeks...or months? I don't know. It's just frustrating. Everything was going well enough until a few weeks ago, then PfffT, done. No more access.

Why can't they make computers a little easier to understand. And why can't websites be a little more user friendly for both MAC and PC? Really, all I want to do is have access to my Live Chat in my living room! Any suggestions? Help!!!

Computers and The Lone Star State.

My computer really stinks. I'm not sure why...maybe it's too old? All I know is that it takes me forever to log onto my Chatline, and when I'm there, it is touch and go whether or not I can actually go live! Apparently some of you aren't seeing me there...because my site still says "I'm not here." What the hell? It really frustrates me. Because I want to talk to you all out there. Over the past few weeks, I've developed friendships and I'm really enjoying my time online chatting. UGH!!!

Oh well...I have to contact someone over there at ebizwebpages to get this straightened out. I'm missing out more than you are!

So I was in Texas last week and weekend. Austin and then San Antonio. I was meeting some of my friends out there. It was the first time I've ever been to Texas. Yee haw...it was fun. The San Antonio Riverwalk is beautiful. I wish that Philadelphia had something like it. Though it did get a bit boring walking around the same four loops over and over. Either way...I ate a TON of delicious Mexican food (margaritas included). It was ridiculously hot...90 degrees every day, despite the fact that October is supposed to be the best time of year to visit.

One story...
We were driving around (lost as usual), those access roads down there are CONFUSING! And we kept pulling off the highway and turning around, then turning around again...
Anyway...we were sitting on the side of an access road trying to figure out where we were going...when a truck pulls up along side us, and some tall dark Texan gets out and walks towards our rental car. Ok. We're from Philly. When a car pulls up next to you, you lock your doors and roll up your windows, right?? Well, this guy actually said that he saw us looking confused and turning around over and over again, and HELPED US WITH DIRECTIONS!! Can you even believe it? If I wasn't on my way to an event with my girlfriends...I may have just taken that sweet Texan back to my hotel and given him a proper Southern Thank You...

Maybe I'm in the wrong city? What do you all (or should I say "Y'all") think?

Vacation

Sorry I've been away for a few days....but I'm back now! I'm running out the door to get groceries, etc...since I've been away...but I'll post later!

Thanks! I'm back!!!

Breaking the Laws of Fashion

I wore white pants today. Is it a crime? You would have thought that I was breaking the laws of human nature, not making a fashion "faux pas." More than one person mentioned it...and I felt like I was being critically stared at as I walked down the street. (Or maybe I just look that good).

Look. I am cute. And I look good in my white pants. And I don't really know who made up the rules of not wearing white after a certain date...but I also don't really give a crap. Why should I keep a perfectly cute pair of pants in the closet for three quarters of the year? I pay way too much money for my pants to hide them away like were contraband when it's 80 degrees outside!

As I said..I'm not sure who made up these silly rules of style...but I've never really felt the need to subscribe to them. No short skirts after a certain age? We all know I don't follow that one.

Wearing last years trends...yes...I'm guilty on that count as well. I admit I'm going to pull out the leggings again this fall. I don't care if they are in style or not. I like them. They highlight my calves.

And Pigtails on a grown woman...well...I'm a fan...but they're only for when I'm feeling naughty.
;)

Don't Cha Version 2

So...we went back and cut another version of the video. It's a bit shorter and a little more fun. What do you all think? Personally, I love both versions....and I'm truly not sick of the song yet!

Hopefully you aren't either...or sick of me!

Pollen.

In my 63 years of life...I have never felt this awful in the wake of allergy season. I am itching from head to toe...my eyes, my knees, my freaking hands! AAh! I have a constant headache and I've been dizzy for a week. STRAIGHT! I feel like the walking wounded...a leper...
It's ruining my social life as well. Friday and Saturday night were spent sitting at home watching movies and dozing off with a cocktail of Claritin D and Benedryl. Who knows if I can even mix the two?? Oh well, I'm not dead, right?
I don't have all that much to report...since I've been feeling quarantined inside my apartment. It's been so beautiful out too...and I can't even enjoy it. Usually around this time of year I like to take long walks around the city and just enjoy life. Instead, I'm watching tv and enjoying brain rot!

Pop Culture Minute

OK. So I'm going to take a minute to talk about the recent goings-on in pop culture. Because I love it. And because it's all anyone is talking about right now.

Britany...oh Britany. My goodness. I'm all for baring yourself...and feeling beautiful with what you've got...but...need you show us ALLLL you've got? I mean...if you don't want to commit to the gym, or to eating less...then...put on a top that goes all the way down to your waist.
By the way...that little blonde silly girl on The View said something about her not being "fat." I'm sorry. She was fat. Too fat to be badly dancing with a bikini on.

Jennifer Hudson in Sex in the City. I'm not sure how I feel about this. I'm actually not even sure how I feel about the film being made at all. I hope that they don't ruin a perfectly perfect show. The characters were so real. Of course, I always felt akin to Samantha...the (sort of) aging vixen. She did what she wanted and never said she was sorry. Just like me!

Finally...I saw a video of Mandy Moore singing that song "Umbrella" on You Tube. It was just not right. Firstly...she shouldn't be allowed to be a star anymore. I can't stand her little prissy happy sweet girl face. (But that's besides the point.) Secondly...no one needed to make that song over. No matter how good a singer you are (and she's really not that great)...that song is purely bubble gum catchy pop (hip pop, if you will). There was no need to try to make it serious and soulful.

Ok. Now I'm off to make myself a drink, and watch Extra or read US Weekly. I love it, and I am not afraid to admit it.

Fee Fie Ho-Hum

It is balmy out. Even at this hour of the night. I'm tired, and my eyes are bleary from staring at this computer screen. But I am here. Since only a few of you have decided to chat with me these Tuesday and Thursday nights, I'm beginning to think that no one is out there. Then again...I'm just too cute to ignore...so...you must be watching. Maybe you are just shy???


Anyway...I went to Atlantic City this weekend. The "Last Hoorah" of Summer, I guess. My girlfriends and I donned our Sunday best *yeh right* and went wild. I love my Cosmo's, I have to admit it. Something about that fruity concoction just makes me happy. Perhaps it's all the Vodka!! So I brought along a few bucks to gamble...even though I'm not the biggest fan of throwing my money away and getting nothing in return. (I'd much rather spend it on a hot little outfit, or, you know me by now...right?...a new pair of shoes...) But I spent my portion, and I lost my portion, and I was ready to go. My friends, on the other hand, had a lucky night. One in particular kept piling up the chips. Cha Ching, Cha Ching. Her machine was hot...she was filling her big plastic cups...laughing and cheering all the way. I kept telling her to keep her winnings separate. Don't bet with the overage....and then she gambled it all away. Including more than she started with...until all she had left was her car keys and her free meal coupon. And the meal wasn't even good. But did I mention the Cosmo's were?

Hello Out There...

Where was everyone last night? I was there...a few of my "fans" were there....but where were you? I debuted my chat line..and no one came to play!

I also wanted to say to my one animal loving friend...sorry my computer crashed at the end of our conversation! I enjoyed talking to you...!

Going Live...

Don't forget tonight is the first night I am chatting live on my website, from 7-9 pm.
Just go to any page of my website to talk to me live!!!

Seasons of Summer...

I was sitting around last night thinking about what I am going to do when summer is over. It's so close. And August tends to fly by. I don't want it to end…even though the weather is often unbearably hot, the sticky humid air swallows us whole when we step outside…I don't care. I'll take it. A little sweat never killed anyone. In fact, it can be great lubrication.
All my friends look forward to the winter. They plan their island vacation getaways, their golf outings, and their overseas romps. I choose to stay at home, in my cold and gray city. It doesn’t mean I don't like it….I can't complain really about any place that affords me the luxury of living the way I do. (Sexy, single and sixty-three…) But I do admit that the thought of summer ending does pull my perfect lips down into a perfect pout.
End of summer means no more bikinis. No more leggy shorts. No more skin!
Don't get me wrong…Fall Fashion gives the best sorts of style choices (I read the magazines, I know it's "the time" for fashion)….I know, I can still bare a bit without freezing to death…but, it's definitely an end to certain things…mini-skirts and strappy sandals, outdoor dining, barbecue smells from my neighbors apartment balconies.
No more bedroom windows open and sex to the city sounds. No more beach!
Well, I'm not one to wallow in misery. As you know, I bitch slap those miserable fools. I'm one to get out there and take action during the last few weeks of heat that I have. A few more weekend drives to the New Jersey Shore. A few more mid-afternoon outings for an icy margarita on the sidewalks of Philly. And I can definitely hit the summer sales to buy myself a few more sundresses to sport for the rest of August. You know what…I'm feeling better already.

Live Chat - Coming Soon

So, I've been thinking...Everyone has given me such great feedback on my YouTube video, that I am thinking about adding a Live Chat line to the blog, where I can talk directly to all of my newly acquired adoring fans!

Check back later this week for more details. I am raring up to discuss my life, your life, whatever comes to mind. I'll see you all soon on the "live" side of things!!
