The end of the aughts

The end of the aughts couldn't be better, I am at work right now, however I am enjoying having the entire office to myself. I managed to get a copy of a CD that I have been eyeing for a long time, Jenny Lewis and The Watson twins, Rabbit fur coat. I have been blasting it in the office all morning and I think I have fallen in love with Jenny all over again. The best part? Her cover of the Traveling Wilbury's "Handle with care" featuring the Watson Twins, Matt Ward (solo artist, and from She&Him), Ben Gibbard (from the postal service & death cab for cutie) , and Coner Oberest (from bright eyes). It is a favorite song of my fathers, sung by my favorite artists. I love when musicians colaborate. (PS Check out Monsters of Folk).

Today seems to be promissing a good night, and a great begining to next year. She&Him are set to release vol.2 in the spring of 2010, I have 2 blog-related projects coming up, and Kyle & I may be taking a trip to Chi-town via Big Blue Bus come March. Also, I have opportunity to get some OT at work since I just got my computer back today. School starts up on the 5th and I am taking an advanced poetry class that I am very excited about. As long as I make it through tonight, I should be fine. Kyle, Jamie, and my friend Suzzie and I are going to The Magic Bag in Ferndale to check out some local bands, should be a blast. We are all dressing up too, the first NYE that I will be donning a dress, one that Kyle picked out for me from F21. If Jamie brings her camera, I may have a chance to show everyone how the night goes. What are all of your plans for this evening?

Happy New Year to all of you!!

Lindsay Lohan has a new boyfriend

[gallery_main-1108_lindsay_lohan_shopping_00.jpg]

God, do we have to do this after time? “Lindsay is definitely starting to turn to him when things get bad.” Because they’ve been dating for what? A week? And Adam Senn has already become a bit player in Lindsay’s drama. Yeah, I bet he lasts.

By the way, Dina Lohan wants everyone to know that after Lindsay’s whirlwind trip to India - in which she took credit for saving the lives of 40 children and was called out for her lies - Lindsay is now “a changed woman.” Dina told Page Six that Lindsay was “humbled and moved” by the trip and that “Lindsay definitely wants to give more back. We are now planning a trip to help the children of Guatemala — which will be filmed by Oprah’s network.” For f-ck’s sake. Not Central America! That’s where the drugs come from!

[gallery_main-1108_lindsay_lohan_shopping_01.jpg]

Just hours after the hearing - it was reported that Dina is demanding $40,000 in child support, while Michael claimed Sunday that it’s only $15,000 - spies say Lindsay showed up at her sister Ali’s 16th birthday party at Abe & Arthur’s with Senn, whom we reported she was dating on Dec. 10.

And while her, err, doting parents can’t agree on much, they both seem to think that Adam is a winner.

“Dina really likes him,” the source says. “She thinks he is ‘good for her.’”

Michael wasn’t on the guest list for Ali’s fete, but he too seemed pleased with Adam when asked about Linds’ new man Sunday.

“If he’s a good guy and he has no addictions, and he’s a good influence on her, then God bless him. It’s a good thing,” he told us.

And although Michael says he would have liked to meet the former “City” star at the party, he admits he’s not shocked he wasn’t invited. “I’m not surprised I wasn’t welcome at Ali’s dinner,” he says. “In light of what’s going on between Dina and I, and being so public with the things I’ve said in regards to Lindsay’s well-being, I can understand how Lindsay and the kids would be upset and not want me there.”

Indeed, Lindsay has publicly dismissed her dead-beat-dad, but an insider claims that his absence is still hard on the troubled starlet.

“Everything that’s gone on between Lindsay and her dad has really taken a toll on her,” the source confides, adding that “Adam is the one really positive thing going on in her life.”

The snitch also claims that Senn and Lohan were texting and calling each other over the holiday weekend - and are certainly acting more serious than “just friends,” which LiLo has claimed via her Twitter page.

Chocolate Legs

"Why do your legs look like chocolate? What happened?"

Was the response I received when I wore this outfit to work. The pictures for today's post were actually taken a few days ago, right after work (hence the hair, which has since been trimmed). I tried out some new brown tights I had bought from Target with a dress that has been hiding in the closet since summer. I paired the dress with a gray cardigan I had obtained a few years ago and voila! Appropriate outfit for a winter work day. I really like how the cardigan is shaped to fit the collar of the dress perfectly.

Louie felt inclined to join me for a pic, even though he is facing the wrong way.

Dress: F21

Cardigan: ae

*PS I just watched "It's a wonderful life" for the millionth time and I still fall in love with that movie all over again each time I watch it. I hope everyone had a happy Christmas!
