E! did it with Khloe & Lamar, so will they do it with Kim and Kris?  Page Six reports that she will be looking into New York City apartments to be closer to her newest beau which got me thinking.  I bet they will come up with a crazy offer for a finale wedding of Kim & Kourtney Take New York!

Would you marry someone for a million dollars?  I would consider it depending on the circumstances.  But if circumstances say you're already a millionaire and been married before, would you do it for showbiz?  When is enough enough?  I think she would.  E! would be offering a hopeless romantic her dream wedding for the stunt.  Sadly I think she can't say no to that (which also gets me going on the definition of marriage, but I wont get into that now).  Also, I'm calling it now that it will be more then Khloe got and it will cause some friction even if it's not on camera, you can bet on that.

Sidenote:  I dont know these people and I am always a firm believer in not judging anyone in general and especially if you don't know them but it's hard not to judge when they put it out there for you to judge (follow that? haha). I don't doubt Khloe and Lamar were in love and planned to marry anyway.  Thrilled to see that from the outsider's perspective, it all seems like it is working out.  Great for them! But Kim is different.

Keep It Light

I am trying to stay positive in light of the negative things going on in our world.  There have been some powerful photos that only prove a picture is worth a thousand words.

and on March 23, 2011 a bomb went off in central Jerusalem killing one and injuring 31. 

Offspring Exploitation

I'm sitting here watching the Real Housewives of New Jersey Reunion Episode and they keep bringing up the kids.  This whole situation beyond pisses me off.  These kids didn't sign up for this and I think its ignorant to think that they can comprehend and know any better.  If mommy says, "It'll be fun, you'll be on TV" and you're a 10 year old, it sounds convincing.  But what's that 10 year old going to do when it backlashes?

The same goes for things like blogging and facebooking and such for your babies.  Think about how embarrassed you are/were when your baby pics get shown off.  Because we as a society have started adjusted to this self-promotion and public life, will it cross over naturally to our children?  Do you think it will be natural for them to be so out there?  I am interested to see what these kids think later on.

Baffled By The Boss

What do you do when your boss doesn't like to be "bothered" but you have something that needs to be answered from them?  You can't physically bog them down so you email them but they don't respond to the email.  You text but they don't respond.  You're uncomfortable asking them in person more then four times.    

Really if they don't answer, you can't answer, and sometimes or most times, that is a reflection on the company.  You'd think the boss would understand that.  

So what is your effective way to get the message across to them?  

Food For Thought

Now that there is all this low fat etc food on the market, do you think eventually, since it is better for our bodies and all, that the regular of foods will go away? I don't think they all will in time or anything but like, if low fat Poptarts taste the same as regular ones, and I only buy low fat, as do other people, and just say hypothetically everyone does the same, why keep the regular ones on the market at all?

Israel is 62 and Suri Cruise is 4

Happy birthday!

I was just wondering if this little girl knows how to walk? I feel like for the past 4 years, I almost always see her being carried. I'm not hating on a 4 year old, i'm just making an observation.
Most recent pics just from April:

(I know she knows how to walk. I just think it's weird.)

What Took So Long?

Along with Swiffer, Ziploc technology, and the bump it (kidding), comes dresses (particularly wedding dresses) with pockets that make me wonder, "what took so long"?!?!

A dress with a hidden pocket is genius. I saw it for the first time at a wedding about a year ago and this bridesmaid was a pretty funny girl. She was like "screw tissues, I got fruit snacks!". It was like a lightbulb in my head went off. LOVE IT!

Yelping Again

Check out my latest Yelp reviews on Tina's Night Club and Happy Dog from a fun birthday weekend for food n such and friends!

Happy Dog got me thinking, if I had to open a restaurant with a one food gimmick, I think I would do shrimp. That would go along with my idea to open a restaurant on a boat on Lake Erie. Something like Frying Pan in NYC. What kind of food would you focus on if you had to pick one? I've heard of hot dogs, chicken, burgers, falafals, pizza, smoothies, baked potatoes, mac n cheese...

How To Be Famous

I'm watching The View right now and I am reminded of a saying/joke I heard that is so relevant right now.

"You know you are famous when the people who you sleep with become famous too, just from sleeping with you."

Or something along those lines.

I first heard that in reference to Bill Clinton/Monica Lewinsky. Now think Tiger Woods. No one knew Rachel Uchitel and now even my boyfriend can pick her out in a line up. Ms. Ashley Dupre, who was paid by ex Governor Spitzer, not only is "famous" but has a sex column in the New York Post and is a claimed "sex expert" or something (which I hate).

What other people come to mind?

It's just an interesting thought.

Still A Mystery

Before I stupidly deleted the entire entry, I was just pondering. How weird it is that I never got my wallet back during Fashion Week. I just got the change purse from my family for a late Chanukah present. Small little black Marc Jacobs things like from the outlet store or something. I didn't even have money in it. I had a ton of business cards, my drivers license and my debit card. I find it incredible that it was never returned.

Like Mike

I was watching the Cavs win and Lebron dominate again and I had this flashback of a movie. Some orphan and shoes and Michael Jordan. I love how the internet can answer your mind gaps in 2.5 seconds. I was remembering this movie I watched when I was babysitting. Like Mike with Lil Bow Wow and little Jonathan Lipnicki. Now the question is, what can rhyme with Lebron, because it's only a matter of time before a movie like this comes out about him. Hey producers, make a sequel with someone finding Lebron's old Jersey. 10% for me, and it's a deal. I'll start writing the script now.

Fading

You know when you are just about to do something, and then you completely forget what it is you were about to do? That's been happening an awful lot to me lately. What can you take to improve this issue? There's got to be some sort of fruit or cocktail. It's a very frustrating feeling.

I am so lethargic today I don't feel like going on a scavenger hunt for the answers but I did find a site with chockful 'o idears.

Animal Flus

Does every animal have a flu? Bird flu, swine flu...

Bad Timing

I picked a bad time to be unemployed. Next time I do this, I will make sure it happens in the summer. It was such a waste sitting here inside this whole time.

First Cranes, Now Planes!

Last summer New Yorker's thought it was a freak accident when the first crane collapsed. Then it happened again. I never would even notice those cranes around and now, I notice them alright.

Then, this weekend, I noticed I had quite a bit of anxiety when I was getting on the plane to Florida. I am usually a good, carefree traveler so this struck me as odd. Maybe I was getting sick? But after reading ANOTHER story about a "freak" accident dealing with a plane again, not to mention it being in NY again, I realized I had developed a slight fear of flying. Crash once, it's scary, but you don't really translate it to something that could be your plane. But four times in a few weeks, I guess I'm starting to get nervous! Private planes, The Hudson Crash, The Buffalo one, The Amsterdam one, and the most recent one at JFK. Shit airport people, fix this!

Come to think of it, sometimes those miracles and coincidences I am always talking about now, are easier to see in hindsight. Right before I left for Florida, I was watching Chelsea Lately and her guest was Kelly Carlson (from Nip/Tuck) and she was talking about her fear of flying and what she does to cope.

You are really trusting so many people and scenarios out of your control. You have to either trust it, or dont. And lately, I have not been given reasons to trust the system. A bit off kilter, but David sent this to me as a joke but Louis CK makes a good point that has crossed my mind a couple times. People are so ungrateful sometimes but when you sit back and think about it, YOU'RE FLYING! "You are in a seat, in the sky!" Just watch it, it's funny cuz it's true! Click HERE to watch.

Hate the word/phrase "touche", but it fits well here.

Daily Show's Kristen Schaal made a line of clothing for Michelle Obama based on the issues she may be focusing on. For the Prop 8 explanation, "The OctoBabyBijorn, accented in gay pride rainbows,a reminder that in California you're an unfit parent if you're gay but not if you're straight, unemployed, live with your parents and have an Angelina Jolie fetish. Then you can have a whole litter!"

Twitter

It's probably mentioned in my life on average, 5 times a day. The whole thing is beyond me and I really don't need another thing to start. But with the emerging of Rutherford Hay, I just may have to join and support. But I just can't do it yet. I really don't see the point. I have this to update on. But its just so dam popular I don't know how long I can stay away...

Drunkberrying

I am new to the blackberry thing. In a matter of a week, I went from losing an old beat up phone, to having 2 blackberries. But now I wonder, as I sit with a beer and get continuous emails from the office, what is protocol for "after work" emails? No doubt there are countless entries on this matter. But I mean, I am truly concerned for the time when the weather turns warm and that blissful thing called happy hour enters back into my life. Do I just have to train myself to be the ultimate drunk emailer? Figure out how to conduct business wasted? Alchies, lets chat. These are colleagues we are talking about, and granted the pr industry knows how to party, we still gotta be able to hold our shit together, no?
