My boyfriend's dog

This is Franklin, he's my favorite animal on this planet. You might be thinking, "wait a second, i thought you hated dogs" and you would not be wrong! I dont like dogs, but 3 dogs have wormed their way into my heart!

1. Franklin (he loves me more than my parents)
2. Katie (my friend carrie from high school's dog, she lives in bev. hills near me so i've spent a lot of time with katie and have dog sat her)
3. Joxer (my brother's dog who loves me because I give him loads of attention!)

Just got the binder with all the leadership articles I have to read for my first class for my MBA!!

It's pretty dry stuff, but I dont mind, it's not the articles I'm psyched about it's the new opportunities that are going to be coming my way as a result of this education. It also helps that i'm going to a top school!

My program is part time so weeknights and weekends, but this first class is a week long class from tues-sat. at the end of august. literally from 7am to 7pm we'll be in classes and leadership role playing what have you, and some leadership oddessey thing that sounds like somethig out of the movie 28 days when sandra bullock was in rehab and had to do a ropes course to gain trust. Just so happens UCLA has a climing wall in their insane ahtletic facility, soooo i'm a wee bit worried.

And for the first time in my life, i'm going to be a minority! From my home town to boulder, white was the color of the masses, but in this program and UCLA there is a tremendous amount of diversity, which I'm excited about! Because there ain't no diversity in the entertainment industry unless you count the different sizes of people's bank accounts.

baby time

my friend bernadette has been overdue with this huge baby in her vagina for a week, so this week we decided to do everything to get it out. She did yoga every day and we went and got 2 foot massages, apparently theres' some trigger in the foot you can hit that can trigger labor. Last night we had game night, 5 people vs. one guy who is a jeopardy champ in trivial pursuit. He won. But the point was, bernsie wanted to have a fun night to laugh the baby out of her! And it worked, i just got a text from her hubby, she's in the hospital across the street from me and baby girl is going to be born today! It's exciting since Bernsie is one of my best friends out here and before, we met in college and we had the same major and did all of our journalism projects together!!! It somehow means more when you've known the person for a long time, like when my friend amy got married last week, i cried when I saw her in her gown!

so excited to meet this baby!!!

that past month has been insane: 4 weddings, 1 baby shower, 2 bridal showers, one bachelor party (yes I was the only girl there) and lots of travel!

I'm exhausted. I have a bachelorette party and baby shower next weekend, but am not going, who has the time? I actually dont i have school stuff as i'm starting my MBA at the end of the month!

OMG HOW COULD I ALMOST FORGET!! last night, i went to thurs. night at the farmers market where all the tv people seem to gather each week in the summer. It gets crazy packed at the bar in the middle and we shut it down and then head to Sheddys across the street for more drinks. I gracefully bow out around 11pm to go to bed, hello, i'm old. there are always TV stars milling about as the group is usually tv writers, directors, actors and an executive tossed in there for good measure. For example last night the page guy from 30 rock, jack mcbrayer was there, he's way too tan. but the best sighting, not with our group but walking by...

LEVI JOHNSTON!! OH YEAH, SARAH PALIN'S SOON TO BE SON IN LAW!!! he was with a group of guys and walks by and my jaw dropped, i never care when i see famous peeps as i see them everywhere I go every day, but this was so freakin awesome, i turned to the people at my table and was like "holy crap that was levi johnston" and it soon got around the group of famous people themselves and everyone EVERYONE was frekaing out. My friend Kristi wanted to go up and kiss him and take photos of it and sell them... okay maybe we wanted her to do that, she didn't seem up for it.

but great sighting right???

I don't want to brag, but I'm going to court with Lindsay Lohan! she is supposed to surrender at 830am on july 20th at the beverly hills court house... well, guess who has a parking ticket hearing at 830am on july 20th at the beverly hills court house?? Uhhh, that would be ME!!

very excited to see the drama unfold. Also I live 4 blocks from there so I can walk! (usually when lin lo goes to the courthouse, traffic is a nightmare and choppers circle over head!)
