Merry Christmas!

This song gives me chills. It's Weezer singing O Holy Night.

Live Action Thundercats Movie???

What's that? A live action Thundercats movie starring Brad Pitt, Hugh Jackman, and Vin Diesel? AWESOME! Actually, it'a big fat lie, but the trailer is pretty cool nonethless...

My Claim to Fame

While I was watching the Charm School finale the other night, VH1 showed a preview of the new Rock of Love Bus. As I was watching it, I had to do a double-take -- was that my friend Jai Jai from high school?? Sure enough, it was her.

You may remember Jai Jai from my 10-year high school reunion. She's the plain-Jane I used to eat lunch with sophomore year who came back to the reunion a porn star. Here's her and me at the reunion (along with my friend Nancy):
And here's her on the Rock of Love website. Apparently she goes by "Jasmineva" these days:
That means there are only 2 degrees of separation between me and Brett Michaels. I can almost feel the herpes already!

Sorry to leave you hanging. December has been crazy busy. I've pretty much been on bridesmaid duty for Shannon's wedding all month. We had the bachelorette party and bridal shower on the same day two weekends ago. And then the wedding was this last weekend. Not much to report, other than I think it all went really well. Now I can focus on Christmas. Anyway, here's the only picture I have of me from the wedding (we forgot our camera).

Dancing Queen

So, my nephew's running for winter formal queen at his school. The way this came about is that some kids were being dumb and sending text messages saying to vote for him for winter queen. He told me about it and I told him about my friend Mike from high school who actually ran for prom queen. He thought it was hilarious and decided to turn the joke around on the kids and run for winter queen himself. He spent all evening yesterday texting his friends and making posters. Some of the posters said, "Vote Jesse for Queen - He's got the rocks to run" and "Jesse for Queen - he's strong enough for a man, but pH balanced for a woman." Yes, he's quite a pip.

Prop 8 the Musical

I know I don't live in California anymore, but... I thought this was cool.

New Trashy Reality Show!

You guys remember Megan from Beauty and the Geek 2, Rock of Love 2, I Love Money, and Charm School: Rock of Love? Of course you do.
One of the last things Megan said before she got booted from Charm School was that she didn't want a career, she just wanted to be a trophy wife. Well, I guess that gave the brilliant minds over at VH1 an idea for a new reality show. Basically, millionaires compete to make Megan their trophy wife. Fanstastic. I can't wait. Casting is going on now guys, so get on it if you want a shot with Megan!

Could it really be?

Oh fate, please don't toy with my emotions: Creed Reunion Taking Shape.

No more funny business

We're back from our fabulous trip. All went well, except I got a little cold on day 8, which lasted until day 16, and Brian got crazy non-stop diarrhea as soon as we got to Hong Kong on Day 16. It lasted through the flight home on day 18 and didn't stop until about 2 days after we got home.

Remember our HIV primary care doctor? Well, he was nice enough to squeeze Brian in for an appointment the day before Thanksgiving. It turns out Brian had a parasite. Specifically, giardia. All is well now, but the doctor's visit is worth mentioning.

Brian asked if it was contagious. The doctor said, "No, not unless someone's licking your rectum. That may not be a concern for you, but you'd be surprised how common it is in the gay community." Em. Awesome. So yeah. Our doctor is pretty colorful. The HIV Primary Care rocks.

I think we're going to stick with him as our doctor. This is the second time he's impressed us with his super-smarts, and someone at work told me he's very highly regarded as a medical expert in the legal community. Plus, I get a funny story out of it every time either of us goes in. What's not to love?
