Ready Set Go!
Bonjour! So firstly, this past Saturday I went out to celebrate my friend Sam’s 30th with some karaoke. It was fun. Although the place was totally awesome and super shady all at once. I want to say it was past West Rogers Park…it was this little Korean joint, the kind of place where your group gets their own room. And when you press a button the waiter comes to take your order and then the drinks come out of nowhere (I did not see a bar). I’m pretty sure it used to be a brothel. But either way, it was still really fun. I sang Mmm Bop, Proud Mary, and Ice Ice Baby. The best is that, when you aren’t singing, they show random scenes from cities and towns all over the world on the screen. It was a great group of people! Including April, who totally talked to me on the phone the night before when I was re-filling a prescription at Walgreen’s! She is my pharmacist! Small world.
Anyways, so Sunday I finally saw the movie “Tu Wong Fu, Thanks For Everything Julie Newmar.” And it? WAS AWESOME. I heart all things relating to drag queens and drag queens themselves. They always seem to be such amazing people. Anyways, Patrick Swayze made one fierce queen. Wesley Snipes was hysterical. And John Leguaizamo was just a doll as Miss Chi Chi. The movie overall is about acceptance, and it made me laugh and cry. And I think I need to own it. Next on my list are Hedwig and the Angry Inch and Priscilla Queen of the Desert.
So I’m going to do a little contest soon. It will be about beauty and the winner will get a little something from Benefit and two runners up will also get a little something from Benefit or Sephora. I haven’t worked it all out yet. But I will!!
How good was Dollhouse last week and 24 last night? Gossip Girl though? Do not even get me started. But I wanted every outfit. I want a Missoni dress.
So now, I leave you with these…
Fierce.
