anderson cooper part 2

i tivo 60mins every week and guess who is in a bathing suit swimming against micheal phelps my gay boyfriend anderson cooper! (technically my 2nd gay boyfriend as Stephen Fry is my actual gay boyfriend!)

anyway, i'm not entirely convinced Anderson cooper is hot anymore after seeing him in a bathing suit! *sigh* another crush bites the dust!

accounting 101

I forgot to mention that I'm taking an accounting class online and i'm actually enjoying it, probably weird right? Well last weekend I had to take my midterm!! I mean the last time I took a midterm was 12 freakin years ago, anyway, it was a 3 hour midterm open notes and open book, if it weren't for either of those things, I would totally failed as i have no memorized any of the ratio stuff, but good news is I got an A on the exam. I just realized today however, i have a project due on tuesday that I'm only 1/5th done with and it's not a fast moving thing cause like I said I have no idea really what I'm doing and have to be very thorough and check and recheck entry so I might be working straight for the next 2 days on this thing. Also I have to take 2 quizzes tonight before 11pm so actually I should go do that.

so thanksgiving has come and gone. its my favorite holiday, one I usually like to spend with my family, particularly my neice and nephew. This year however, I was writing for a new show and wasn't going to make it home so I made plans to chow down down down down and down friends. when my show was cancelled I thought about going home but I'm so glad i didn't. I had a great week, drove up to the Santa Barbara vineyards to get some wine, went out to the farmers market on wed. night with a huge group of friends, maybe drank and ate too much on Thanksgiving and hiked and played all weekend long. Played Golf on fri with my friends bernie and Kyle and hung out with their friends friday night and went bowling. yeah, tis a great holiday weekend. Ugh I can't imagine what I wouldve done in NY, been bored out of my mind probably staying with my parents!

thanksgiving in LA is the best kept secret cuase NO ONE is in town, the streets are emplty, sure yesterday runyon canyon was packed with people trying to hike off their stuffing, but other than that, its THE best time to be in LA!

and i didn't even have to cook a thing, my friends ordered a whole meal from whole foods and it was delish!!!

BTW why do i find Anderson Cooper AKA the silver Fox, so freakin cute even though he doesn't bat for my team?! Could i change him?

also I'm watching this CNN heroes thing and I'm wondering why Lucy Liu and Selena Gomez are Unicef spokespersons or something.

So i'm confused by facebook, apparently there is this thing where you can limit people looking at your facebook profile and I had unknowingly blocked my profile from like half my friends and I have no idea how I did. My friend Charlie was like, um, i can't see your friends anymore and I was like I have no idea why, but hes 16 so he helped me fix it, but i'm so confused that some people can see different parts or have access to differnt parts of profiles.

I just ate way too much chocolate.

oh and I'm embarrassed that i'm starting to like that show Private Practice on ABC!

I'm sick! I hate being sick. does anyone know the average lenght of a cold? I'm guessing 7 days, is that right? I guess i could google it. Anyway, I need to be writing stuff today for a deadline and instead my mind cannot seem to focus as it instead is coming up with crazy ideas. For example, my friend scott who writes at the writers guild with me told me today that he broke his arm and has a piece of bone floating around his arm right now. I said he should get surgery to get it out because what if he's eating chicken parmigiana at Dan Tana's and the bone chip floats to his brain and kills him. Then I said but if you finish the food and drink a great bottle of wine and then the bone kills him did he think Dan Tana's was going to charge him because how would they get the money if he's being dragged out the door by the coroner. It would be a tad innapropriate, no? So that's an example of what I'm thinking about instead of finishing my fandango rewrite! yes I already got an offer to write for fandango, sure' it's only 200 bucks, but i'll take it. I might be getting paid more for my show too,just not sure yet. i had a 20 week guarantee so they might have to pay me a few more weeks so that would be awesome!!! but my agent is trying find that out as we speak.

anyway, last night i fell asleep around 7ish too tired to do anything. I woke back up to watch House and then went back to bed. Like I said being sick sucks!

I just went and bought a chocolate chip cookie at whole foods and I told the guy I had put a cookie in the bag and he charged me for a roll which is less money and my head is slow right now that I didn't think to say anything until I had gotten back to the writers guild. Does that make me a bad person? should I go back and tell him? I will really do anything not to do work today.

so my show was cancelled, which blows. But I had wanted to set up one of the writers on my show with my friend Adam. He's so cute and so nice and this chic is super hot, so I thought perfect. However I suspected that she dated high profile men, mostly because she told me a story about how she went on a date with Damon Wayans. Nevertheless, i thought my friend is so great, that how could she not like him!

so i was going to introduce them on halloween. My friend has a huge huge huge party every year and its packed with entertainment industry, mostly TV folk and its a blast. This year sarah silverman was there, mindy kaling from the office, Jon Hamm who plays don draper on mad men, etc etc. Oh and I was there, so there you go, big showbizy party i attend every year.

But adam got food poisoning and coudn't make it, so i told my colleague that I would set them up again in the future... so imagine my surprise when I logged on to justjared.com to find pictures of her MAKING OUT WITH GERARD BUTLER ON A DATE LAST NIGHT AT THE SANTA MONICA PIER!!!!!

I saw this post and was like, whoa, that looks like my friend (i'm not saying her name obviously) and then i texted her and was like "um did you go on a date with 300's Gerard Butler last night?!?!" and she said yes and wondered how I knew, I said check out justjared and TMZ has a video of you making out!!!! GOTTA LOVE THIS TOWN

i think it's over for Adam and her now, i mean he DOES NOT have abs like Gerard! oh well, do i get points for trying?!?!

HERE'S THE VIDEO

well this day has come and i'm not happy about it. after 2.5 years of not having a job to go to (despite writing alone and selling a few things) I finally got one starring alyssa milano, a show that had a great cast and a promising future. it was really well done and was suppossed to be on ABC. Well yesterday it was cancelled and we never filmed an episode. we were just days away from starting production, we had 6 episodes ready to shoot already paid for by the network and the studio... and then yesterday they pulled the plug and I'm back where I started.

what's worse is that the group of writers were so fucking rad. I had the best time, just laughed and laughed. It was such a great cool group, no diva attitudes, no crazy people, just cool optimisitic people. I'm really disappointed! Back to the drawing board.
