I\u2019M THERE!  it\u2019s a little difficult to even think of being there, hard to believe.  especially on an especially grey cold and dreary january day like today.<\/p>\n<p>so, the play will be over, and off i\u2019ll go.  nice.  very nice. something FANTASTIC to look forward to.<\/p>\n<p>if you click on the link over there on the right, the one about jerri and bren, you could see photos of their new place.  i haven\u2019t actually clicked on it yet, but i\u2019m about to.<\/p>\n<p>la la la la la.<\/p>\n<p>that\u2019s all i have to say.<\/p>\n<p>not really.  i wanted to write yesterday about blind melon, but i forgot by the time i was writing last night.  after i watched jimmy carter on the news talking about hamas, i focused my attention on the music videos, and watched the entire song &#8220;no rain&#8221; by blind melon.  if you\u2019ve been reading this for a long time, you might recall that one of the people in one of my massage classes in LA was the wife of one of the guys in blind melon.  heather thorn is her name.  she\u2019s very beautiful and i don\u2019t know why she didn\u2019t want to be in movies or something, but she seemed very happy working in the beauty industry.  she tinted my eyelashes, as a matter of fact, which would have been scary but she was very cool and i knew she wouldn\u2019t blind me.<\/p>\n<p>she would talk about the parties she\u2019d go to.  i mean, i went to some parties in LA, but i feel that the parties she attended were probably even more extremely party-like.  for example, she knew george clooney.<\/p>\n<p>yeah.<\/p>\n<p>anyway, i actually watched the entire video yesterday, because i\u2019d never watched it all the way because usually my attention span isn\u2019t that quite that long.  and it was really great &#8211; if you haven\u2019t seen it, there\u2019s this chubby little girl in a bee costume who is tap dancing at a school thing, and people make fun of her and she runs away, and she runs all around and is rejected but finally arrives at this sunny field, and she opens the gate and there are all these men and women in yellow tutus and tights like the one she\u2019s wearing, and they all dance around and have a great time.<\/p>\n<p>it\u2019s quite charming.  it is interspersed, of course, by the obligatory shots of the guys in the band actually singing the song and playing their instruments.  i liked it a lot.  <\/p>\n<p>here\u2019s me, expanding my horizons, looking at things more thoroughly, and ABOUT TO GO TO LA!!!!!!!!!!<\/p>\n<p>so monday is better than i\u2019d expected it to be.<\/p>\n<p>i hope yours is good.  and if it isn\u2019t, please try to do something fun to make up for it.<\/p>\n<p>yesterday at the grocery store i impulsively bought a SHAPE magazine because one of the articles is 10 DAYS TO A BETTER BODY.  this seemed perfect for me, because of the play opening NEXT FRIDAY.  gulp.  the thing is, though, i haven\u2019t even opened the magazine yet because i\u2019ve been busy doing other things.  like buying double-stick tape at the fabric store to prevent a wardrobe malfunction.  the double stick tape was seven bucks, which seems ridiculously expensive for TAPE, but hopefully then it will be extra good.<\/p>\n<p>i guess i have until tomorrow to start reading the 10 days to a better body article, because i\u2019d have to start on wednesday in order to achieve the better body by next friday.<\/p>\n<p>ok, so i have a goal now.  READ MAGAZINE.<\/p>\n<p>i feel, though, that it\u2019s probably just going to tell me to EAT LESS, EXERCISE MORE.  and if you happened to see one of my gracetalks, i already covered this topic thoroughly.<\/p>\n<p>jerri says that all the women at the apartment building where she lives are actual models.  and everybody is very rich, and they all have hummers and beemers and all kinds of fancy cars.  she says she steps on the elevator with these gorgeous creatures and she thinks, &#8220;why didn\u2019t i wear my lingerie?&#8221;  see, i HAVE the lingerie now!  and as christine says, you can wear anything anywhere in LA and nobody cares.  so there i\u2019ll be, at the grocery store in LA, sashaying down the aisle in my bustier&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>i have to work now.<\/p>\n<p>ok then,<\/p>\n<p>monday grace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>you may recall how excited i was at the prospect of dog\/housesitting for jerri and brendan. but my excitement has waned considerably because it didn\u2019t happen INSTANTLY, and i\u2019ve had other things to focus attention on.
