First thoughts of 2008
Tuesday, January 1st, 2008Well, I seem to have survived into another new year. 2008 here I come.
Jennifer, Jacob, Eric and I went to the Sandra Bernhard show at Castro Theater for the holiday. It might have been a better show if we’d had better tickets. As it was, we were in the balcony where the sound was shitty and some asshole light designer who would have flunked the Intro to Light Design class I took in 1997 thought it would be a good idea to point a blindingly bright white light directly at the balcony for the second half of the show. Good times!
Sandra was funny and I can’t fault her. She ripped into Ellen, blogging, and the way New York has changed. She gave an excellent performance which would have worked better in a smaller cabaret setting, but what can you do?
Today, Shelley and Renee hosted a new year’s get-together at their beautiful new place on Bernal Hill. We had fondue, a campfire (on the deck in one of those iron firepit thingies) and Guitar Hero.
Back to work tomorrow. Boo. Hiss.
It’s time to run the blog meta for the month of December. Rather than listing the top ten search terms that brought people here, I thought it would be more fun to make up bullshit answers to some of the more disturbing questions/terms that brought people here…
“What song is Peter playing in Spiderman 3?”
No bullshit answer for this one, he’s playing “Fever” – an excellent metaphor for his condition as well as an awesome jazz song.
“resume de something queer haunted school”
Yeah, um, no idea what the hell you’re looking for. Or why there were 7 of you looking for it.
“james marsden kissing a guy”
Yes, it is a thing of beauty. Look for it at the 3:00 mark.
“What kills giant squid”
Only three things… nuclear weapons, poisoned mushrooms, and anything sung by Ashlee Simpson.
“legal babysitting age siblings utah”
14. But you can marry your sister at 12. Unless you’re lesbians.
“is juliette lewis gay”
No. But I’m gay for Juliette Lewis.
“dirty truth or dare questions”
I dare you to put your ____ in my ____. Fill in your own blanks.
