Nine years ago today I was in New York visiting from Chicago and interviewing for my first job here. I write things like this in my date book and set it to show up each year like a birthday so I can remember them.
I'm such a different person today than I was nine years ago. In the last few years I think I've changed the most. For the better.

Daily Tweet Roundup
Me, today:
- Have a purse full of feathers. #britneyspears #
- In the past month, 3 people have asked if I have hair extensions. (I don't; it's my own hair.) I don't know whether to be offended or not. #
- twitpic.com/243n3 - Britney Spears concert in Newark, NJ #Britneyspears #
Britney!
I'm uploading my pictures from the amazing concert last night.
I didn't bring my nice camera (the rules said they only allowed point and shoot cameras) so the pics are kind of grainy, but they're still fun.
Here's one until I get the rest up.

Me, today:
- Ha ha ha... Watching last night's Ugly Betty. Her nephew Justin: "I don't get hockey... All that ice and no one's figure skating?" #

The Met
I'm going to The Met today and I'm going to bring my camera. Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad me hasn't been there since, um, I moved here nine years ago. It's not that I don't go to museums, I just haven't been to The Met since then. The last one I visited was the museum at the International Center for Photography in January. (I learned all about the Kurds.) And before that it was the New Museum. (Hell, yes!) I feel I need to tell you these things so you don't think I'm uncultured. I'm not, I just haven't been to The Met since 2000/2001-ish. Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad me.
UPDATE: I just remembered that when my cousin Katie came to town at the end of 2007, we visited The Met and did a loop de loop around the first floor and checked out the store. So, you see, I have been there since 2000-ish, I just didn't see any exhibits.

- Coulter, Maher spar tinyurl.com/agt47g "There's this debt because George Bush spent money like a pimp with a week to live." So funny. #
- I just realized that I'm ten years older than my date last night. I'm officially a cougar. Meow. #

Me, today:
- Getting ready to go to party/premiere for Knowing w/Nic Cage. Last premiere I went to my date peed next to Al Sharpton. Hoping for a repeat. #
- Score! My date just went to the bathroom next to Jerry Bruckheimer. Not to start rumors, but you know what they say... big explosions, small penis.#
UPDATE: To clarify first tweet, he used the urinal next to him, he didn't actually wet himself. He just sort of looked over mid-stream and was like, "Hey..."

Slow Blog
I am so irritated with this blog. It has been loading so slowly for the past few months and I have no idea why. I took down all the advertising because I initially thought it was that. I took down the background image and replaced it with all black. I've removed the twitter feed thinking it was that. (It wasn't, so I put it back up.) I've taken down every other sidebar widget to see if it was one of those. (It wasn't.) Now I've just taken down all the pictures of my books, thinking it was them.
BUT IT'S STILL TAKING FOREVER TO LOAD.
I want to scream, I'm so irritated.
Per the status bar on the bottom, it seems to get stuck on feeds2.feedburner.com, which is my blog feed. I disabled the link at the top to subscribe, so would it still be pulling something from that?
I'm so confused. Can anyone help me and tell me why it's loading so slowly?
So Cute
Nanette Lepore pink leather "Flirty Flower" wedges at BlueFly. They don't have them in my size, though. :-(
