New York and Back

Good God.

I went off to New York last night for a party with the Time Inc. folks. We had a room rented at the back of the bar at the W on Times Square.

It all gets a little hazy after that.

But I know I carried myself pretty well in that I did not flash the bar, show everyone my panties, cry hysterically or sleep with married coworker.

The former editor in chief of Maxim was there, and he spent a lot of time and charisma trying to get me to answer questions like, “Tell me about your first one night stand… What’s the most embarrassing thing you’ve done sexually?” He got more out of me than I should have allowed, but not as much as he wanted. And I certainly didn’t tell him anything as compromising as the stuff he told me.

It was really really really fun.

It’s a Party!

I’m very excited to have Steakums and ElectricRocket here with us in the LJ world. Welcome to you both (and Roan by extension).

I guess our little world is coming out a bit more.

For Eastlake

I enjoyed this and thought of you.

Home from San Diego

So tired… jet lagged… but it was great to be back on a shoot again. Lane Venardos was our director. He was Walter Cronkite’s EP. Then Dan Rather’s. He was in Tiennamen Square and watched the Berlin Wall fall. He got very wealthy, retired to Maui and now he takes jobs for kicks. One of those kicks jobs is that he produces the Survivor finale and consults on the rest of the episodes. He does The Apprentice as well. Super cool.

Okay, off to bed. The sandman is callng me…

Alone on Valentine’s Day. Woo hoo!

Seriously. While I might not have picked this weekend to spend some time alone, the fact remains that I’m alone in my apartment, and not working, for the first time in a very very very long time. This shouldn’t be read as a complaint about Damon. I’m truly shocked at how serene I feel, even though he’s always around. I don’t get much done, but that’s a fine trade. But I am a woman who loves her alone time. And what a delight to get some of it. It’s something that made me fearful of having children, because that pretty much locks up your opportunities to operate independently. But it seems I really can do it without too much stress. But that doesn’t mean I won’t do many a little happy dance tonight.

I will rue this when the Festival casts Damon and takes him away for four months.
