So, I'm waiting for tech support to fix an issue with a database so that I can keep on doing my monkey day job and I thought I'd come back to my old friend, the personal blog, to just diddle around with my thoughts.
I have to say I used to look down on blogging as much as any non blogger, but as someone with a compulsion to write down my ideas this has been a great outlet. My friends and family should thank the blogging revolution as it gives them a break from having to be innundated with my randomness.
I'm writing a blog/articles for an online fashion magazine and it's cool, but I got in some trouble when a certain designer's PR people didn't like reading about how I was pretty sure said designer's face was filled with bobo (botulism virus). In all fairness, it was a little gossipy and not the right venue to say that in. So, I rewrote the damn thing and stated why I thought the designer just wasn't a very good one. Based on her work, of course. Anyway, it's nice to be able to say whatever I want here. Like I can just write fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, over and over again. Or, I can say, it is my personal opinion (and not that of my readers) that Tory Burch has a frozen twenty-year-old face in a 40-something year old body. Whatever.
On that note, I CANNOT wait to start aging as ungracefully as possible, and I tell everyone in my life that at 35, I'm using my tax refunds to get my first shot of the bo. Also, even though making fun of celebs is funny, I'm starting to think it's kind of dumb. I thought about taking down my celeb bashing posts but then I was like, "Why? It's what I was thinking about at that time in my life." And I do have a greater purpose in mind, sort of. I just think people should admire other people for what they do and what they're famous for, rather than deifying what they say, b/c most of it is retarded. Like Whitney Port has so far been a kind of laughable reality TV "star", but she just presented her first fashion collection, which actually has merit. Let's give homage to that, but not assume that Ms. Port is also qualified to be a head of state -- is all I'm saying.
Let's see...what else. I really need to find a way to make more money.

Be careful little pretty what you write because some "hot shots" may try to sue you for slander or defamation of character and you don't have an umbrella policy in place to cover that kind of lawsuit.
JUST ME
Oh, man I love that my mom is the only person who writes comments, and she writes them in a way that makes it IMPOSSIBLE for it to be anyone else but my mom. Anyway, mom, defamation suits are only valid if the defendent tries to spread a "fact" or information about the plaintiff that is demonstratably untrue. These are my opinions, clearly, nothing passed off as fact. I'm good.
