Thank God I joined the fan club because the pre-sale starts this coming Monday.

Did anyone call the number I provided? I did and left Janet a message of the songs I'd like to hear from: All For You, Someone To Call My Lover, All Nite (Don't Stop), What Have You Done For Me Lately, Nasty, When I Think of You, Love Will Never Do (Without You), Control, Black Cat, Rhythm Nation, Freedback, You Want This, If, Again, Every Time and So Excited. I'm so excited I'm nauseous.

SEX AND THE CITY: THE MOVIE

I bought tickets for the show tonight (at 6pm) during the early afternoon and almost all the the showtimes this afternoon to evening were sold out. Luckily I bought the three tickets for my two friends and I however; I got to the theater before they did and we got to sit in the third row. The theater was full of queens and fabulously dressed women. I wouldn't doubt that this movie makes a ton this weekend.

The movie was absolutely fantastic! I can not wait for it to come out on DVD so I can see it over and over again. I have already planned to go see it again with my friend K who is in Vegas right now on vacation. If you haven't done it yet plan on it especially if you are a fan.

The movie is full of twists and turns. If you can believe it its about 2 hours and 30 minutes long. Its perfect timing and doesn't feel as rushed as the last episode on the series was. At the end the whole theater clapped.

I must commend the writers and everyone involved with the movie. The girls were excellent and some of the other characters were excellent. I couldn't believe how fat Candace Bergen got. I wasn't sure if it was being so close to the screen, what she was wearing or if she really was that big.

Anyhow.. check it out!

MISS STARLET! MISS STARLET!

Comedian Harvey Korman, whose 40-year career included dozens of TV shows and several films, died Thursday at UCLA Medical Center, four months after suffering an abdominal aortic aneurysm ago. He was 81.

And in honor of him I have put both parts of "WENT WITH THE WIND" a skit put together on the Carol Burnett show that I personally enjoy watching over and over again. I just love what each character brought to this show. Harvey Korman played Rhett Butler and did an excellent job at that. Take a look.

HIATUS

I am going to take some time off from blogging but I wanted to let the few and near who actually read my blog (compared to my old blog "A Boy & His Toy").

I need to sort through my life and my head. I have been pulling topics out of my ass the last week and instead of it being as tragic as it has been I'm going to take some time off.

I hope to be back rested, fresh-eyed and bushy-tailed.

STICKY & SWEET

I trust everyone had a great & restful Memorial Day Weekend. I even have a tan.

I know I wasn't too much on the Madonna front but this morning I heard KRBE (my radio station of choice in the morning due to Roula & Ryan) were giving away tickets (I'm assuming on the floor). I started to call in and unfortunately finally got through right after the last caller was received. Basically they are doing a Pop Madonna Question Round-Up. I answered all the questions right this morning (of course I wasn't playing) so I'm going to be on their station like a whore on cock. I may not be completely about her new album but she is an extraordinary performer at that and plus if I get them free what else can do?

Happy Tuesday all!

WEEK(END) SEASON FINALE

Last night I saw the season finale for Ugly Betty. It had its same twists and pulls as each season finale but I guess I wasn't as shocked and freaked out as I was last season finale. Even though the writers strike put a dent in my schedule I am ready for the new season to start, which I know won't be for a while.

I'd like to close for the weekend with a clip of one of my favorite movies ADAM & STEVE with Parker Posey.

MAJOR CREEPAGE

In case you have never seen this I found this on youtube---this is a video of a "filming" of a ghost caught on film. Start looking at the chair and let me know what you think?

GREASE 2

I find it shocking sometimes when people haven't seen a certain movie. Grease 2 for instance is a favorite of mine (although the first one was a lot better) and here is one of my favorite scenes, which combines two of my favorite songs on the soundtrack. A Girl For All Seasons & (Love Will) Turn Back The Hands of Time. In case you haven't seen it its part of a talent show production and Michelle Pfieffer is acting up because she thinks her dream guy is gone.

A fun fact about this movie is the blonde is Lorna Luft known as "Judy Garland's Other Daughter".

ROCK WITH U TOUR

Janet Jackson announced on The Ellen DeGeneres Show today that after a 7-year hiatus, she’s returning to the stage for her “Rock with U” Concert Tour.

“I’m here to kick off my ‘Rock With U’ tour,” Janet shared. “Our first show is September 10. And I’ve set up a number for fans to call in and to leave what old/new songs you’d like to hear [at the concert]. The number’s 323-622-8139. Give me a call and let me know!”

The entire Ellen audience got two tickets each to Janet’s concert. You know I'm bitter about that but this will be a definite must see especially if she makes it to Houston.

THE HEART OF THE MATTER

Last night I went and visited with my good friend who is visiting Houston while getting her treatments at M.D. Anderson for her different cancers. As I have mentioned I do NOT like her boyfriend for many reasons but the top reason was his infecting her with HIV because he never told her and after being together two years she found out she has it. Obviously she is already weak enough with NO immune system and this disease can definitely kill her. So far it looks as though its not doing any harm.

Anyhow last night I showed up at their hotel and ignored him as classy as I could. I addressed him at some points but with no eye contact only because he kept talking to me any moment he could and of course I said farewell when I was leaving.

It was good to catch up with my friend since she has moved back to Dallas. We have known each other since I was 18 or 19 when we met (I'm now 28). We've been through a lot and we have been a rock for each other plus I don't have the kind of fun with anyone else that I have had with this friend. Just thinking about her not being around really hurts because facing it she is one of the few people that knows a lot about me and I still have around me. (Most of my friends over the years have moved away or have just lost contact with because well people change)

Anyhow she has a surgery today and God love her. We shall see what comes of today. They are suppose to see what part of her spinal cord is being tightened by her backbone and so they can go back later and scrape that bone with a possibility of becoming paralyzed. This was caused from radiation treatments she received when she was younger due to having Hodgkins and the tightness in the spinal cord causes this continual pain in her neck/arms. She is tired of the pain obviously and so is going through all these surgeries.

THIRD TIMES THE CHARM

So I thought I was going to see George Michael and then I really wanted to see Tina Turner but since shes not coming to Houston (despite Dallas being the turning point in her life where she left Ike) I found out Janet Jackson will also been touring this summer.

I know Madge is performing but I'm not crazy about her album nor this sticky and old slutty deal. Moving on!


More great news on the same subject it'll be more of a greatest hits kind of concert. Definitely a great idea on her behalf and you better believe I'll be attending this one. Would be smart of her to come to Houston too. We'll see what comes of it when they release the tour dates.

TEEN ARRESTED OVER PROM DRESS

Right here in my own city of Houston, Texas a 17-year old girl was arrested at her prom because her dress did not coincide with school dress code.

Who went too far?

Despite the outfit (being too tacky) not being something I would wear I think everyone is entitled to wear what they want especially to Prom where one must pay in order to attend (unlike public school).

Did school officials go too far? I think so.

What do you think? Below is youtube's CNN reporting on the issue at hand.

WHATS THIS, WHATS GOIN ON?

Former Will & Grace star Megan Mullally is set to return to television!

The Emmy Award winner will return to TV to join Alicia Silverstone in the new comedy Bad Mother's Handbook.

The show will air on ABC this fall.

Mullally has just sealed the deal to play Alicia's mother.

The show will center on Alicia as a 32 year old mother, juggling to take care of both her 16 year old daughter (played by Alia Shawkat of Arrested Development) and her 48 year old mother (Mullally).

I'm so excited to see her back on television.

MOUTH LIKE A HOOVER

Last night I was googling around online while I was watching Cruel Intentions and then I had a realization on one of the characters before he actually appeared. I waited for him to do his scene and it was confirmed. Greg O'Connell (the football stud) from Cruel Intentions...IS infact Ugly Betty's Daniel Meade (real name Eric Mabius)!!!!!!!!

I guess some of you may of already known this but I hadn't realized this until actually watching the movie again. I piled up my all-time favorite, I-can-watch-them-over-and-over dvds near my tv for easier access.

What a way to start up a Monday. Seeing Eric Mabius in his homoerotic scenes is hot especially the special features where Ryan Phillippe convinces him to give him head and then knocks him and says he's only joking. Great scene!

Happy Monday!

REMEMBERANCE: KEVYN AUCOIN

He struggled his way to the top of the professional make-up industry by emphasizing the beauty within. His motto was that it was far more important to help a woman feel beautiful no matter what, and that makeup was simply his tool for helping her discover herself. A proponent of the philosophy that every woman is beautiful within, he was one of the best-paid celebrity make-up artists in history.

He worked with hundreds of A-list celebrities like Cher (above), Janet Jackson, Tina Turner, Gwyneth Paltrow, Courtney Love and Vanessa Williams. He became a highly in-demand makeup artist, often acquiring $10,000 per session for photo shoots or award shows.

As a published author (The Art of Makeup, Making Faces, and Face Forward), he was fond of taking celebrities (and various other men & women, including his mother) and using makeup and costume (and sometimes prosthetics) to make them look like other celebrities, or like other people entirely. He transformed Tori Amos into Mary Queen of Scots, Celine Dion into Maria Callas, Liza Minnelli into Marilyn Monroe, Christina Ricci into Édith Piaf, Hilary Swank into Raquel Welch, Winona Ryder into Elizabeth Taylor, and Martha Stewart into Veronica Lake, among others. (picture to left is Lisa Marie Presley as Marilyn Monroe from book Making Faces)

Aucoin lived with his partner, Jeremy Antunes, whom he married in an unofficial ceremony in Hawaii in 2000 and thereafter referred to as his husband. He had also previously been romantically involved with Eric Sakas, who after their breakup remained close friends with him and became president and creative director of Kevyn Aucoin Beauty.

In October 2001, just one month after launching his own cosmetics line, Aucoin was diagnosed with a rare pituitary tumor. He had been suffering from acromegaly resulting from the tumor for much of his life, but it had gone undiagnosed. He died in May (7th) 2002 of kidney and liver failure due to Tylenol toxicity, due to an addiction to prescription painkillers used to treat the extreme pain from his condition. A musical homage, called "Taxi Ride," was written for him by longtime friend Tori Amos.

A WHOLE LOTTA CRAZY

Despite it being a very ugly, cloudy day here in Houston and all the bad news I have endured the last couple days (that I have yet to share with you reader) I have received a positive, happier attitude after I woke this morning.

I have decided on giving myself little projects to keep me going and just deciding to take life slow. I guess you can say to live in the minute but not to go over board and have a Gloria Swanson moment.

Truth be told I tend to take in a little too much than I should. I tend to hold in too much when situations bother me and then like a war zone unload my entire clip. It is part of my persona and what Cancers (zodiac sign) are known for.

Anyhow I plan on being thankful for the good in my life. I should probably keep it on a list so I can read it through when I get a bit Baby Jane-ish. I went from listening to Billie Holiday yesterday to listening to my dance diva music today.

DARK KNIGHT

I just saw the above trailer for DARK KNIGHT, which is the sequel to BATMAN BEGINS. The best part of the movie is Christan Bale. I can not believe I forgot how hot he was (excluding the Machinist).


YOWZA!!! YOWZA!!! YOWZA!!!

Obviously everyone (unless you live under a rock) is aware that this was the last and completed movie by Heath Leger who plays The Joker. Based on the preview he did an amazing job surpassing what I ever saw him as an actor.

Anyhow back to Christian. HOT HOT HOT!! Check him out in other movies if you can (I have yet to see American Psycho) Reign of Fire (with Matthew McConaughey) he looks excellent in. Per the google search I see he's filming Terminator 4 currently.

TV'S SEXIEST WOMEN OF ALL TIME

So I just read this list of Television's Top 50 Sexiest Women of All Time and I was stunned with the results. I only decided to report the top 10 of course along with my commentary of each.

10. Tina Louise - Ginger from Gilligan's Island. Truly deserves this.

9. Catherine Bach - Miss Daisy Dukes herself. I guess I can see that.

8. Katherine Heigl - From Grey's Anatomy, My Father The Hero, Valentine, 27 Dresses, etc. I think shes beautiful but to top this high... geez.

7. Barbara Eden - Jeanie from I Dream of Jeanie. I don't know about sexy maybe back then. Definitely beautiful.

6. Dianna Rigg - Who?????

5. Eva Longoria - Thanks to Clairol or whatever hair coloring products shes always "claiming" to use. Just the latest "hot" latin to be or lust for.

4. Heather Locklear - Now hotness all rolled up in a bitch sauce. I love how she played the woman who Stockard Channing's character left SC for in First Wives Club and now years later her husband left her for Denise Richards. Ironic. Despite all that I agree extremely sexy and still looks fabulous.

3. Lynda Carter - Wonder Woman who by the way still looks absolutely flawless today. Lynda is beauty and grace. Definitely worthy.

2. Farrah Fawcett - Feathered hair and being the slutty Angel. Sexy slowly developed with time and I can understand this.

1. Pamela Anderson Lee (whatever she is now) - I like to call her Pamela V.D. instead of Lee. I can't believe she is no. 1. Gross. Sick. Disgusting. Hot yes but not worthy of making the top 10 unless its another topic.

Where was Julie Newmar who is WAY hotter than some of these. Any others you can think of that definitely deserved a better hot spot?

PRINCESS BRITNEY

Britney Spears' last album BLACKOUT (in my opinion) is absolutely the best album to date that the Pop Princess has released.

ITS HOT, HOT, HOT!!!!

Sources and ton of paparazzi blogs/photographers say Britney is hitting the studio and working on a follow-up album already. Aside from hitting the gym and spending time with her boys it looks like Ms. Spears is coming back.

Back to her album I love every single song on the album EXCEPT "Hot As Ice", which she could of left off and instead included the following singles she had recorded for the album but they didn't make it. I love both of these and if you care to listen to them check them out.

(1) This one would of been called "State of Grace". FYI for Non-Britney Followers the video is from "Gimme More" but set with "State of Grace".


(2) This one would of been called "Over To You Now"... its hot. FYI for N-B-F the video is a series of her videos compiled to create the illusion.


Seriously if you haven't checked it out its really a good album especially if you're a fourteen-year old girl at heart deep inside like I am.

A great weekend to all and to all a get laid!

PROUD MARY KEEP ON BURNIN'

Fuck George Michael I'm SO going to this!

Tina Turner, 68, Hitting the Road Again
AP
Posted: 2008-05-01 10:09:42
Filed Under: Music News
CHICAGO (May 1) - Tina Turner says she's hitting the road again for her first tour in the United States in seven years.

The 68-year-old singer announced on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" that it will begin Oct. 1 in Kansas City. Tickets for Turner's tour go on sale May 12.

The R&B legend appeared with singer-actress Cher, 61, on an episode taped Saturday in Las Vegas before a crowd of 4,000 people. The broadcast is scheduled to air May 8.

Winfrey asked both women how they feel about getting older in show business, according to remarks released Wednesday in advance by Harpo Productions.

"I think it sucks," said Cher.

"That number doesn't mean a thing. It just doesn't," said Turner.

MEDICATIONS

NOTE: The current entry contains the very first actual photo of yours truly "Naked~n~Exposed". Be prepared.

Tonight which is now early morning my good friend who I have been talking about with cancer received a call from her brother who said their mother was bleeding out of her mouth really late in the night. We were frantic and I told her if need be we would take off tonight or tomorrow and drive the 5 hours to see her Mom and make sure everything is fine or not fine and be there for those last hours or minutes.

Apparently she took a medication that affected her so badly she started bleeding through her mouth. I can't recall the medication's name but you start bleeding through your saliva because it is so thinned out (like Advil does but worse) that it comes out through your saliva glands. Apparently all is good now but that medication did not agree with her and other medications she is taking.

My question is: WTF these doctors go to school and ask you what other medication you're taking and for what? I don't understand it personally?

My same good friend almost died a couple months ago because she mixed medication she was taking. She literally stopped breathing in front of me and I didn't know what to do. I wanted to call an ambulance but while her jerk boyfriend smoked weed he said not to. (Same friend I've talked about who had a shit boyfriend) She had called me and said barely that she couldn't breathe and her boyfriend got on the phone and said they'd call me back. Me being the friend I am couldn't wait to have him call me back especially when my friend had called me and rushed over. She practically stopped breathing in front of me and I thought that was it. She surpassed it somehow and I told her never to take those pills and tell the doctor the next day. She did and he told her not to take them if they were causing that reaction. (gee thanks doctor---a little late!)

They really don't know anything that is one reason I hate certain doctors. If I don't feel safe or like you're talking to me like I'm an invalid---I can't go to you. Luckily I have a great doctor that I adore and think the world of.

About two years ago I sprained my ankle (see above picture) something awful and my regular doctor was on maternity leave (despite her being a lesbian but they can have kids too you know) and went to some other doctor who I found through my medical in-network insurance). This crack head doctor who looked like she had been trampled at Woodstock couldn't even wrap my foot and after attempting three times told me to do it myself. She was more concerned about this piece of metal she found (via x-ray) in the back of my right foot. (I received this piece of metal as a baby---when babies get their blood drawn after being born doctors use a device to draw the blood from the back of the foot. The device has a metal tip, which must of broken off in my foot and healed within my foot forever cast inside me (and no I don't set metal detectors off). Anyhow that is what she was more into then my ankle being horribly swollen and twisted. (what'd she want to do operate?) Over two years later and my foot is not back to normal and I can not do any of the physical activities that I use to. Its horrible and do not want to go into details but you get the point.

WTF?

ONCE UPON A TIME

...in a kingdom far, far away there lived four princesses who despite the everchanging ways of the empire surpassed and became idols to queens who watched from afar. These princesses became the bible to these queens and taught them a lot about life and the lack thereof in some cases.

Okay I had to give the girls a storybook beginning because the movie is only 29 days away and I will be there the day of (boyfriend or not) to see SEX AND THE CITY: THE MOVIE. There has been some gossip to the new movie but I will keep you from it and instead only tell you the movie takes place about five years since the last episode.

One of the songs on the soundtrack of the movie has been leaked (for quite a while) and I have decided will be my theme song for 2008. The song is by Fergie and called LABELS OR LOVE. Below is the song along with clips of photos of the movie in YouTube form. Take a moment listen and enjoy!

LABELS OR LOVE

eGAY ALL THE WAY

Ask anyone that knows me and they'll tell you I'm a big eBay freakin' wizard. I love eBay mainly because ANYTHING you may ever been looking for is right there at the stroke of a couple keys on your computer. BOOM there you go memory flash. Speaking of which I wonder if they have that Kermit the Frog I torched that belonged to my younger sister? Nothing says I'm sorry like getting them the exact item years later huh?

Anyhow I have been needing to put up a lot of items I need to sell and finally get rid of and finally started doing so today. Mainly hard to find British albums and what already here and ready for shipping in the United States. I have a big box of gay porn a friend gave me that I've been meaning to post to but I'm not sure what the porn market is like on eBay. Every Colton Ford item I've ever bid on is always outbidded by some eWhore.

Just thought I'd change up the blogging topic.

UPDATE: Funny that I posted this today. I put those products up to sell and I get some suspension on my account with no one to talk to of course. All these internet companies never have anyone you can call and try to get "their mistake" corrected hell you can barely do that with your any utility company. WTF?! If and when they do fix it all you get is their worthless apologies, which does not help all those days they kept you from buying and paying for items.

THESE DREAMS

You know that feeling when you just know and you can not explain it? I get that feeling a lot throughout my day and in my life. Sometimes I just have to let it go and move on or else end up insane.

I know you must think I'm full of it but I'm really being serious. I can think of someone and right then and there they either call me or I run into them. It can be someone I have not seen in years too. I have thought of people I had not seen in years and then days later I find out they died the day I was thinking of them. It creeps me out a lot and sometimes I just hate to think.

(Okay I had two extra paragraphs typed but thanks to laptop technology I click a space bar after it highlighted those two paragraphs when my fat finger touched the pad and poof there goes my two paragraphs of thoughts---FUCK YOU!!! To who.. who knows but I'm pissed. I know mouse-lock is located on the pad but I never use it.)

Anyhow... the other day I was remembering memories of going to the dentist with my second oldest sister who is in her late 30s now. I must of been either 4 or 5 because she was married when I was about 5 or 6. I was so happy I remembered because she moved out of my mother's house shortly after she graduated high school. I remember her wedding and for about ten minutes spending time with her during this event, which someone actually photo'd. She moved away shortly after her marriage to Germany because her husband was in the Army and were in my hometown for a couple years and then moved again to Tennesse and it has been a long time since I saw her. She sent us all (my brother, sisters, neices, nephews and I all keep in touch via email) that she was going to get surgery done for thyroid cancer. This obviously concerned me and so I've been emailing her questions but I get eventual answers. I'm not sure if she doesn't know or if she's just busy. In some sense we're strangers. I am no longer a little boy and any memories of her are slowly turning into shadows that I know will probably fade all together.

This obviously plays in with my thoughts when I remember memories. If I have not mentioned this before my earliest memory was around 3-4 years old. It kind of freaks out my mother when I recall certain things and everyone else doesn't remember so I'm stuck looking like a fool.

Anyhow.. had to share, had to get it out.

A CORN COB?????

I always like reading facts about everything and anything, but I had to share these weird good-to-know facts about our bodies. (Compliments of AOL)

Is eating boogers bad for you?
Lung specialist, Dr. Friedrich Bischinger, has been quoted as saying "With the finger, you can get to places you just can't reach with a handkerchief, keeping your nose far cleaner. And eating the dry remains of what you pull out is a great way of strengthening the immune system." However, many doctors disagree. Our fingers are covered in germs and bacteria from touching things like doorknobs, restrooms and phones. If you then use that germ-covered finger to pick your nose, you risk transferring all those germs in to you body. So, if you want to reduce your germ intake, keep that finger to yourself.

What did people use to wipe their bums before toilet paper was invented?
Before modern toilet paper was introduced by Joseph Gayetty in 1857, Americans were stuck using corn cobs or mussel shells. Wealthy Romans used a salt-water soaked sponge tied to the end of a stick to get a clean behind, while the Vikings were fans of leftover sheeps' wool. Coconut shells were the bottom cleansers for Hawaiians, the French used bidets and the Japanese used wooden sticks.

Is it possible for a spider to live inside your ear?
It's not a common occurrence, but small spiders sometimes make a home in your ear. For example, a Greek woman in Athens complained of headaches and a sharp pain in her ear when riding around on her motorbike. Upon examination, her doctor uncovered a spider's web and then a spider. He added that the spider probably enjoyed its stay in her ear because the temperature was ideal for it.

Do bugs live in eyelashes?
You may have guessed the answer is yes. By the time you are an adult, microscopic, wormlike mites called demodex mites, have made a home in the roots of our eyelashes. If you pull out an eyelash and check under a microscope or magnifying glass you may get a glimpse of these tiny creatures.

Why do certain people attract mosquitoes?
The mosquito is usually attracted to a person by scent and temperature, but sometimes also by looks. Just like gentlemen, mosquitoes prefer blonds. It's possible that blonds are simply more noticeable to mosquitoes than brunettes.

What are eyebrows for?
They are certainly expressive, but they also serve to help keep water out of our eyes when we're sweating or walking through the rain. It's especially important to keep sweat out of your eyes because the salt in your sweat can make your eyes sting. In the 1700s, upper-class men and women would shave their natural eyebrows off and glue on fake ones -- made from mouse skin -- on to their brows.

How do astronauts poo in space?
Buzz Aldrin became the first man to poo on the moon in 1969. He collected his waste in a bag, but because of zero gravity, the contents would often escape during the disposal process and fly around the shuttle. To curb this issue, astronauts ate very little fiber to prevent them from pooing very often. Modern astronaut toilets work like a vacuum cleaner. In order to use the toilet the astronauts must strap themselves to the toilet seat and then turn on a powerful fan. A suction hole then slides open and the poo is sucked away to be stored, and then disposed.

Is it safe to drink your own urine?
Since urine is 95 percent water mixed in with some salt, vitamins, hormones and disease-fighting antibodies, it probably won't do you much harm. However, our kidneys work to remove toxins from the body, so it follows that drinking the product from the kidneys would reintroduce these waste products in to our bodies.

I MISSED BETTY

So finally UGLY BETTY is back after the writers strike caused a chain of events that hopefully satisfied them because for one this blogger never wants to have to go through that again. Tonight a new episode will air on ABC 8/7c.

Tonight's episode is called Twenty-Four Candles... and I guess that is why it fell on the 24th. It is Betty's birthday and she is turning 24 (if that wasn't obvious enough). I hope I can get back into my Bettysync.

By the way, new information leaked that Naomi Campbell will make a cameo appearance on the season finale. Only five more episodes left before second season is done with.

Can I get some Betty-woop-woop?

SHE'S NOT ME

I "received" a copy of Madonna's newest album HARD CANDY. First I expected to be Madonna revisiting her roots of bubble gum pop, which I thought was kind of cool and a good idea. I contemplated ordering the whole album via iTunes especially since her last album CONFESSIONS ON THE DANCE FLOOR was so frickin' hot (definitely the perfect cardio cd). Luckily it was the last thing I had to do last night so it helped putting me to sleep. Sorry Madge sad but true at least from this blogger.

The leaked version of THE BEAT GOES ON has been redone and some of it is better but some of it sucks too. SPANISH LESSON sounds like Dr. Giggles is laughing freakishly in the background. Some of the songs have a bit of retro-disco ding-dong sound to it with repetitive lyrics. There might be like three songs overall that I like and thats only because 4 MINUTES has grown on me except I want to skip around like Madonna does in the video. You call it whether thats a good thing or not.

I really expected better songs (something different "I'm tired of the same ole' thing" as she originally was quoted in saying on THE BEAT GOES ON) but everyone is entitled to their own opinion. It may be one of those albums that takes a while to grow on you. COTDF definitely didn't need that. I loved it right away.

ADDED LATER:

I forgot to mention that despite not being crazy about the album I think they are all perfect for remixes and that'll be where the fame and and money will be.

Text Message Breakup

Can not get enough of this! lol

Let Me Borrow That Top

Okay this should be a television sitcom!

I'm sure most of you have seen this but I wanted to post it anyway. I can't get that damn SHOES song out of my head and now I've bought KELLY's entire album.

CUTE AS A BUTTON

As reported by the Associated Press Sandra Bullock and her husband were unhurt after a car accident.

Sandra Bullock and her husband were unhurt after a head-on crash with a drunken driver, police said Saturday.

The actress and her husband, Jesse James of TV's "Monster Garage," were being driven in a sport-utility vehicle Friday night when a station wagon crossed the center line and hit them, said Gloucester police Lt. Jerry Cook.

Both vehicles were totaled, but no one was hurt. The vehicles were traveling 15 to 20 mph, Cook said.

The other car was driven by Lucille Gatchell, who registered a blood-alcohol level of 0.20 percent, more than twice the legalul.

Bullock, 43, was "gracious" and concerned about whether Gatchell was OK, Cook said.

The actress, who starred in such films as "Speed" and "Miss Congeniality," is in Massachusetts filming the romantic comedy "The Proposal."

KISS ME BABY

I saw GREAT BALLS OF FIRE tonight and despite the scandals with his his personal life everyone seemed to be so damn judgemental like they were all so fuckin perfect back then. I just bought this movie but you better believe it will not be something I'll see more than LA BAMBA or THE BUDDY HOLLY STORY. Bitch ass judgemental hookers need to get over it and I think possibly we're a little more open minded now then we were back then when everyone was insanely closeted.

Thank you JLL for all the great music you produced despite the hardships and despite not actually looking like Dennis Quaid who is a fine ass mtf in my book. Ok!

HAVING RELATIONS

Lately I have been thinking about sex (and I don't mean the way men do most of the day) but sex with regards to relationships. As we live life and move along the tunnel of life we learn that some of the vague objects of life become clearer.

I have spent a lot of my time lately with my good friend and we have spent a lot of time talking about sex and relationships. She has been with her boyfriend almost three years and he has cheated on her numerous amounts of time even just finding out he had been hiv positive all this time. She believes its in nature to fuck up (so to speak) along the way and it just happens. Of course her boyfriend I would say would not represent most of the men in the world but they do exist.

Today I spoke to my best friend since I came out and she told me how her boyfriend of maybe (sorry I can't remember) five years does not make her feel sexy. She has attempted in gaining weight (she has a JLo body already), changed her hair, her makeup (you know because men notice all that) and he is not interested. When they broke up he was apparently fucking everything in sight but then back with her he becomes limp and can not even perform. (I know how Charlotte SATC Season 3-4)

I have been wanting to talk about most of this with my boyfriend but we have spent a lot of time apart lately and when we have been together we have had one of my friends third wheeling it.

I use to believe in a lot of things as a child mainly because we are naive as children. Some of my believes are still a part of me and all I can do is live life as it comes and enjoy as much as I can without hurting the people around me and myself.

Any thoughts on this subject dear reader?

MC2 = DUD

I have been listening to Mariah Carey's newest album E=MC2 for over two weeks now and I just can not get into it. Aside from "Touch My Body" I think the rest of the album is a bust.

Anyone else's thoughts?

JUST KEEP WALKING

Yesterday I accompanied my good friend (as I've been referring to her) to M.D. Anderson, the best cancer treatment center in the United States. My friend had a couple procedures and I was with her from 11am til 7pm-ish when we finally were released.

The hospital is huge. I got lost a couple times because all the different buildings are all connected by hallway-like tunnels with little carts driving patients to and fro.

There was a lot to see and a lot to think about while I was there. Additional things in life that I'm thankful for and more thinking about life and the direction thereof. I also thought about wanting to contribute my time to such causes even though my life seems chaotic enough at the moment.

I guess sometimes we need certain situations to happen (even if for a day) to remind us of what we take for granted or what all is out there.

MY DARLING MARILYN

So I'm back from my trip and back at work, etc and what do I read first??? This whole Marilyn Monroe fiasco. My darling Marilyn's memory is pushed to the limits even over 40 years after her death.

Luckily the Manhattan millionaire who purchased this sex video of Marilyn has publicly announced he will not make it available to anyone, which was the upside for me. I'm so glad he has honored her memory for any true Marilyn lover will know MM admitted she spent a lot of her time on her knees but she paid her dues.

I will say this now; however and whichever way our dear Marilyn died if it was at the hands of someone MAY they rot for it. If you (dear reader) have not seen THE LAST DAYS OF MARILYN in which they put together the last movie she made called SOMETHINGS GOT TO GIVE you should definitely see it.

May dear Marilyn Monroe aka Norma Jean Mortensen rest in peace.

IZ THE LOOK

Tomorrow morning-ish my good friend and I are driving down to our hometown to visit for the weekend. My good friend has a couple drag bookings and I'm just going just to go. It should be a fun-filled, ole' times reminiscing, party-time dragfest.

I'll try to update while I'm on mini-vacay but wish us well.

BACKWOODS BARBIE

This weekend I took these pics at a thrift store I was there with my good friend and my boyfriend. For some reason we thought they were funny.

Here are some more I'd like to share.







What do you think?

Who knew there was a shaved head, naked Barbie bargain bin!!

TIME GOES BY SO SLOWLY

Madonna released her "4 Minutes" music video yesterday for the first single on her to be released HARD CANDY album. I downloaded the video off iTunes and watched it with my new receptionist. If you are not aware Justin Timberlake and Timbaland were featured in the video.

I was confused, horrified, and mystified.



The reasons are as follows:

(1) I wasn't sure if Madonna was leading the end of the world aka the apocolypse.

(2) For a while it turned into JT: "hey Madonna I can move like this.. can you?" and of course Madonna did. Is this a case of I can do what you can do but better?

(3) I was horrified when people's faces were halfway coming off due to the "end".

(4) I thought wasn't Madonna chasing Britney on MATM and now shes chasing Justin but she doesn't disappear this time, instead some of insides were exposed. Is this the future?

(5) There was a part where Madonna jumped through a window and then woah its a set. I guess it didn't matter but it was kind of stupid.

I know not everyone will agree with me. I've heard the song over and over again to see if I like it and its either a NO or a WELL MAYBE. All I recall is JT saying over and over "4 Minutes to Save the World" and Madonna getting orgasmic. Whats with Madonna and time?? (referring to her last album---there was a lot of mentions to time. I can just hear Joan Crawford yell "and I know they are all saying.. shes getting old, shes getting old!")

Maybe you can just call me Pro-Britney. Madonna may of been an extraordinary pop singer but I think shes lost her touch on whats hot. Next year I bet she'll be working with who's hot now like Rihanna and Leona Lewis.

ONE FOR THE ROAD

Yesterday was April Fool's Day and I wanted to get everyone here at the office but everything's been done. Unless you become utterly cruel which sounds great but its not my style.

This is what I did.....

At lunch time, I went up individually to each person with a Chinese Food Menu and said I was buying lunch for the whole office and for them to get whatever they want. Most said they already had plans or already were about to eat whatever they brought. I had one look at me in disbelief (more so as a trust issue on her behalf) and I couldn't help but start laughing out loud. I guess it was small but it worked.

What all did everyone do or get pranked on?

MUMBLE MUMBLE MUMBLE

Nothing I hate worse than someone who mumbles when they talk and I mean this especially when I'm working and extremely busy (never fails), and the phone rings and everyone underneath me is tied up and so I get it.

Mumbler: Is *mumble* *mumble* *mumble*?

Me: Uh.. (wondering what they just said) no sir they are on the phone currently. Would it be okay if they call you back?

Mumbler: *mumble* *mumble* *mumble*...

Me: Uh... okay thank you.

I hate even trying to order take out for instance pizza. You can never get someone who speaks clearly. What the hell is that about? I'd rather call Chinese with their heavy accents who at least can understand me more so.

I'm just saying...

FROM CANCER TO HIV TO ME

One of my good friends who considers me her (she is actually a he) best friend moved to Dallas with her boyfriend to get away from their peer pressure and easilly tempting surroundings. Unfortunately, they broke up a couple days ago after nearly two years (my friend has many forms of cancer) and as she walked away from her he told her he hoped she would die quickly. That was him just being plan hateful.

I have told her repeatidly to ignore him and be angry with him for everything. She has given up a lot for this man (which should of been her red lights) and stood by him and made him care for life more so then he did.

Today I received a call from my friend and she said she found out he was HIV positive all this time and he had not told her anything. She told him how she'd asked him more than once and he'd responded that he was negative and he claimed that never happened. This is the same guy who found out a mutual friend of ours was possibly positive and said he wanted his toothbrush out of the restroom to avoid the mutual friend from using his toothbrush and getting him infected. WTF?

Its a crazy world we live in and things can get worse and crazier if you do not look out for yourself. You can help others and so on but its so very important to never put yourself in any kind of jeopardy especially if you know something is wrong.

All I can do is remain a positive attitude towards my friend and hope for the best. She has had a lot more wrong with her lately with the different cancers ravaging her body. I know some day she might not be here ever and that really upsets me. I've known her since I came out practically. Even though she has put me in a lot of bad situations and screwed me over a couple times I'm still a human being who has a huge heart. All we can do is pray and see. Sorry for the morbid entry but enjoy and cherish every day that you have with the people around you who matter and your own life.

MR BLOCKBUSTER

I must have over 500 dvds at home. I'm what you would call a movie fanatic. Lately I've been thinking about movies I saw as a kid and even made-for-tv movies I really enjoyed. Here are a couple to see if you've ever seen them.

(1) The Ultimate Lie - starring Kristin Davis who plays a spoiled young rich girl who rebels against her parents by becoming a call girl; however, one night she arrives at a hotel for a "rendezvous" with a client and discovers to her horror that the client is none other than her father. Yes total Lifetime movie... so unable to find now.

(2) The Quest - starring Henry Thomas (from E.T.) who plays a U.S. orphan who with the help of his girlfriend explore the aboriginal legend of a lake monster in Australia.

(3) Deadly Friend - starring Kristy Swanson and Matthew Laborteaux (the cutie from Little House in the Praire) is about Paul who is a new kid in town with a robot named "BB". He befriends Samantha and the three of them have a lot of good times together. That is, until Samantha's abusive father throws her down some stairs and kills her. In an effort to save her life, Paul implants BB's computer brain into Samantha's human brain.

(4) Fortress - with Rachel Ward is about an Australian school teacher and her students are kidnapped by masked men. She and the children fight for their lives and try to escape from their captors. This movie use to creep me out big time as a kid.

(5) Square Dance - with Winona Ryder and Rob Lowe. Gemma is 13 years old and lives with her grandpa in the country, she has for many years. One day her mother shows up, and wants to take Gemma to the city. Her mother is married now, and can provide for Gemma. Gemma goes with her mother. In the city she gets to know Rory, a mentally retarded boy. They play together, imagining that they are married.

I have about 40 right now that I'm trying to get my hands on. Do you all remember these?

CATCHIN' UP

Sorry I haven't posted but I've been busy with this and that.

I would like to say I am proud of Britney's come back and finally taking it as she should. I wasn't sure if this would all help her but she did a great job on "How I Met Your Mother", which you can now view off of CBS's website.

BTW, when will Ugly Betty come back? I miss that show. Its great in case you have never seen it.

Could you believe Demi Moore uses leeches as a beauty secret? Whats that about?

Way to go to Chelsea Clinton who told that student (who asked about the Monica incidents) it was really none of their business.

So now I'm caught up and a regular post will be seen tomorrow.

DON'T BOTHER TO KNOCK

I have been so exhausted this week and I've had a lot of sleep. I unfortunately am working today unlike more than 3/4 of America who are off during this Good Friday. If I don't have some time off and sleep in I'm going to go insane. My vision via my contacts has been kind of blurry so I'm not sure if I need to switch them out or whats going on; however it did make driving to work kind of fun this morning.

On a separate note I've been wanting to get something off my chest but have decided to discuss it with my boyfriend before posting so now I take it back. I'll post next week on this subject. I will share with you that I got tickets for the True Colors Tour (center section row B--excellent!) and I'm so excited about seeing Andy Bell again. I went last year and it was awesome but we'll see how it goes this year. The line up this year is Cyndi Lauper (of course), the B-52s, Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, Andy Bell of Erasure (WOOAH!), Wanda Sykes, Lili Haydn and host Carson Hessley (or whatever). I can't believe I got such awesome seats and I'm so looking forward to it even though it is in June. The way time has been flying it'll be soon enough.

Have a great day off everyone and enjoy your Easter weekend.

OH HAPPY DAY!

Its a beautiful day here in Houston today. The sun is a shining bright, the sky is a sparkling blue (I almost feel like I should bust out in a song & dance) and its around sixty degrees. Its just perfect.

When I get down to blogging I always forget about what I was going to write about the night before when I thought about it and of course now I no feeling for it whatsoever and so I apologize.

I've been between crazy-busy here at work to not at all and I'm trying to stick to my diet/exercise regime but weather/out of town guests put a dent in that and am getting back to it. Just doing all that has affected me and has made me a bit more crazier (if thats possible).

DREARY, DISMAL DAY

The main reason I went with Naked `n Exposed as a title for my blog was because I wanted to be just that with the way I feel and what I am thinking. Now whether or not I accomplish that will remain to be seen. I guess in some way I am since I am expressing what I'm thinking however; it may not be as deep as something else going on.

The weather outside is gloomy and its cast a feeling of doom over me. I feel like I can't do anything right or the way I have projected for myself through my own goals. I feel like I have no time left to get anything that I really want to accomplish actually completed.

I guess I don't have anything positive to say today. Dreary and quite dismal day.

CUSTOMER SERVICE SUCKS!?

Scenario 1: Last night an old friend of mine and her boyfriend arrived from Dallas to stay with me for a couple days while they deal with some personal business. I picked them up and took them home and we caught up for a bit. I started getting a bit hungry because I've been on the Atkins Diet and so I wanted to see what their plans for dinner were. They didn't have any nor did they have any money on them until tomorrow so I bought them Jack in the Box while I took some take out from a Sushi restaurant. My order alone was $20 and I specified to the girl that I wanted seaweed wrapped smoked salmon, sour cream and cucumber. When we were at home and get ready to watch UNREST I realized they had put white rice in it, which is against my diet but given I'd spent $20 on a meal I decided to eat it as it was. I don't understand what was so wrong about that?

Scenario 2: Yesterday I was at my boyfriend's place and he had just arrived from the grocery store. He started telling me about how rude the cashier was and that he had attempted to use a coupon supplied by the store and she just said it wouldn't scan. As he was leaving she started moving the revolving bag holder for the next customer while he was still trying to get his bags from the guard. (This bitch is lucky I wasn't there cause I would of read the hooker like a book)

Scenario 3: My friend staying with me went to the hospital she gets treatments here in Houston for cancer and while there was trying to get a certain task done. The receptionist some bitchy fag was rude and short (when it came to his talking). He made her do all this extra running around when he could of just made a phone call and when she arrived where she was trying to reach she was told he had called. I told her to go back and read that motherfucker. He's an employee of an establishment that treats sick people who have cancer and he's got to talk to them this way like they need something else to add to their plate? She said she was.

In all I know we all have our bad days. I know I do but when a customer comes in I try to be as courteous as I can be (of course I'm in management now) and of course if its someone I like I enjoy it more. Where has customer service gone these days?

THOUGHTS OVER THE WEEKEND

You know how when you look in the mirror everything is actually the other way around? (if that makes sense)

I'll explain with a story---I was out with my best friend. We were hanging out at a country bar we use to like to frequent because we dominated the juke box, there were pool tables and the drinks were killer! It was fabulous back in the day. Anyhow it was Halloween and my best friend dressed as a hippie. He had the words Peace & Love written on his cheek, etc. We had been drinking a while and I was finally focusing on his face when I realized the writing was backwards. He couldn't believe it and went to look himself. He came back scowling at me that I was a liar and it was the correct way. I told him you know when you look in the mirror its backwards.

So my question is... the way we see ourselves in the mirror is actually a reflection of ourselves but yet backwards. Does it mean some of us think we're more good-looking then we are or we are not as good-looking as we actually do seem to the world?

YOU'RE SO OUTRAGEOUS!

"Anna-Anna-Anna-Anna-Anna Nicole... you're so outrageous!"

Yesterday I finally received the Anna Nicole Smith Show: First Season on DVD that I bought off of eBay. (I remember seeing it at Target about a year and a half ago for only $5---I paid about $12 now) I'd never seen the show before and to be honest I didn't have that great of an impression on Miss Vicki. My main thing with her was comparing herself with Marilyn Monroe (who I just adore) and I thought she was far from Marilyn. I've read more about her today (since I couldn't get her out of my head last night and in my dreams) and realized she was compared to Jayne Mansfield when she started the Guess? jeans spokesperson years. I could see that.

Anyhow I really enjoyed the 2 (of 3) discs I saw yesterday. I realized they really made her crazy by combing all the crazy things she said but if you pay attention she sounds like any other "typical-categorized" person. Yeah thats a nice way of saying it. I thought it was pretty cool wiht everything she'd accomplished and as I watched the show I had to keep reminding myself that both her son Daniel and ANS were both deceased. Very sad when you think about it and watch the show. You hear what she wants to do and accomplish, etc and then we know how much time she actually had. I think its also very sad with her daughter growing up with neither Anna and Daniel.

I must say this... I HATED Bobby Trendy. He is the typical kind of fag queenie bullshit that gives us in the gay community a bad name (write that one Jon Bon Jovi!). I couldn't stand him from the beginning when his only word in this vocabulary was "luxurious" and a couple episodes later he graced us with a new word. I figured it was the word of the week and he is pure proof that Hooked On Phonics eventually works. I didn't want to bother with a picture of anything else of BT---aka Basically Trash. He's just some queen with a glue gun who is so insecure with his being he instantly got protective of anything he said or did. What a total loser!

Anyhow... I've gained some respect for Anna Nicole and I wish she could of been saved. It seems so many are "going" that way (last month or so with Heath Leger's death) with mixing all these prescriptions. I can't believe its been over a year since Anna died.

This post is for you little Ann....

CARRIE'S CRAZINESS

Lately I've been watching old episodes of Sex and the City (one of the many shows I really loved and followed while it was still going on) and kind of thinking Carrie Bradshaw was a bit crazy and over analytical towards John aka BIG.

I myself have been in a great relationship for over six-months and its drama-free & perfect. He compliments me and expresses his feelings, and we talk just to make sure we're doing well and getting what we need.

Back to crazy, I know first of all it was a show but she spent doing a lot of what she should of been doing with BIG with the girls. You know the girls---Samantha, Charlotte & Miranda.. hell even Stanford. If she would of told him exactly how she felt instead of throwing fit after fit and making herself sick with what he was and was not saying and giving her within their many attempts at having a relationship. I know it took many years and finally BIG himself breaking down the barrier of his exposing his vulnerable side, but it finally seemed to happen on the last episode of SATC the HBO series.

I'm so waiting for the movie and I hope it does its justice and give us more closure than the last 10 mins tried to shove into.

LITTLE MR NONSENSE

It has been so beautiful the last couple days and with this time change I definitely have time to enjoy my time outside of work. I'm looking forward to activities outside of the office and going to the track for a couple laps. I realize that is why people love to live in Los Angeles and thus the reason everyone is fit and in good moods.

I'm not really sure what I was going to write today and so I decided to just rant and lose myself in my thoughts as I type them down.

I'm a bit upset about what or what if with Obama getting the Democratic nomination to run for President. That is the reason I stay out of politics all together.

I'm a bit upset to hear about the UC Student Body President that was murdered by two suspects who are now in custody. Bastards. I believe in an eye for an eye and so I believe they should be put to death and quit filling up the jails. I have a baby sister and I worry about her safety so many states away.

The Mayor of NYC resigned due to his buying of sex. I don't really find that a huge issue but apparently a lot of people did not like him because he was an ass and well a politician's life is all about being the "token person" and posing as so.

Not much going on with Britney Spears. I hear shes releasing her latest single "Break the Ice" video soon. I thought she should of released this one first only because I love the beginning that goes "Its been a while... I know I shouldn't of kept you waiting... but I'm here now!" HOT!!!

Anyhow... that is it for today.

BLONDE OF FREAKISHSTEIN

This weekend I had something weird come over me and I decided to buy 'bleach blonde' hair dye (my hair is dark brown) so I could transform. I guess if I think about it I'll come up with a reason but that is not my reason for my post.

After I had applied my blonde potion I started thinking about Angela Bassett in 'Whats Love Gotta Do With It' and started thinking about my hair falling out due to the shock of changing my hair so drastically. I freaked out since I saw the front part of my hair turn golden I started to wash it off. Its pretty damn blonde but I'm not happy. I look freakish. Maybe its because I'm not use to it but I colored my eyebrows too and now my lashes are dark and I look like I got them painted dark.

I almost called in "ugly" to work today and stay home with attempts to fix my mistake but instead I came in and it wasn't a big deal. My boss tends to say things that aren't very nice but for whatever reason he feel compelled to tell me, which he did.

I'll be going back to the basics later on today. I'm just waiting for the time to come.

MISS JEKYLL-HYDE

About a month ago I was surfing the web and found the website for the Junior High I attended and realized you could email the faculty. I scanned the names since it only had their first initial and last name and noticed my Pre-Algebra teacher from 8th grade was still there. She was by far my favorite teacher and so I thought I would email her.

I received a response by the next week and she remembered me and said I had made her week. She had responded about her room (the same one) and her now boyfriend, etc. and then asked what was going on in my life. I told her the truth that I was gay (and now had a boyfriend who I adored) and was living in Houston. Weeks have passed and no response. I suppose she's homophobic.

I remember when she use to walk up and down the aisles sniffing when she thought someone smelled and she'd point them out. I recall one time I was playing with my hair and she told me to stop and then then commented to everyone in class that she'd never seen a boy play with his hair and that was such a girl thing. Now you wonder why she was even my favorite teacher? I guess despite her crazed ways she was a fun woman plus I ended up being one of her top students.

Anyhow at the end of that year the teacher recommends what "kind" of math you will begin your freshman year. I'd originally signed up and was accepted to this Science Academy for gifted teens but freaked out since I didn't know anyone and withdrew. I enrolled into regular high school and loved it however; her recommendation came through---Extended Algebra A. For those of you that are not familiar you take Ext Algebra A your 9th grade year and Ext Algebra B your 10th grade year. Your parents are the only ones who can cancel out the recommendation but my mother doubted me and said my teacher knew what she was doing (one of the many times my mother held me back). I was and am a whiz when it comes to Math but after those two years of barely thinking and then taking Geometry with a teacher who everyone cheated off of each other, it no way prepared me for Algebra II that I signed up for my Senior year. It was so advanced and there was so many sophomores and juniors in the class that I dropped it and instead left school at 11am. Hell you could definitely not beat that.

Anyhow I hope you understand that one thing set up a trigger of a domino effect that caused thing after thing.

It seems to me more times than ever that I'm barely getting my head on right and am able to think rationally through the bullshit in my life and where whatever happened either really helped me or really did NOT.

Parents & teachers remember this when you're restricting your child!

Getting Started

I use to blog a lot and then I stopped because too many people were getting involved with my frickin' freedom of expression via blog. That is what is everything is coming to nowadays. Less and less freedom for everyone from Joe-Blow to Brad Pitt.

I look outside and see how beautiful a day it is and can still not believe so much of what goes on. Time may have passed but I find we have not grown wiser as a human race.

Anyhow... this is a start.
