    Take Action

    Celebrity Sightings

    • Christina Applegate and Chole Sevigny
      at the BWE 100th episode party. They are both so blonde. That color blonde that does not exist in real life but only with chemical enhancement. They're beautiful though.
    • Melba Moore
      in the airport in Nairobi, Kenya! We smiled at each other over Nescafe (aka coffee).
    • Parker Posey
      at Murray's Bagels. She looked really punk rock.
    • Jessica Lange and Sam Shephard
      at A History of Violence at Cinema Village. They were so cute and followed us everywhere from the movies to Cedar Tavern and back to the movies. They probably thought we were following them.
    • Nicole Ari Parker and Boris Kodjoe
      pushing their baby down 13th Street. I was having a meeting at Cosi around the corner from my overcrowded office. I looked out the window and there they were. They stopped in front of my window and were doing the, who should take the baby conversation. I was trying to listen to the person talking to me but I could not and she was not the type of person who would understand my distraction by these celebs. They are both really attractive but almost too much so. His sneakers were new. His jeans were new. It was weird. I like imperfection.
    • Joshua Redman
      running on 18th Street. I realized that I've seen him many times before and just did not realize it. He was smaller than I thought he's be but I guess most people are.
    • Patti Smith
      which was not a big deal to me but my friend Marina apparently sees her all the time. This was her fourth sighting. I said she should say something like, "I see you everywhere. We should hang out." Marina wouldn't take the bait.
    • Leonardo DiCaprio
      with Isha on our way to the PATH station on 9th Street and 6th Ave. He is very tall but as my friend says, one cheeseburger away from being fat. His bodyguard "subtely" was wearing a jogging suit next to him. I guess they exercise together. He wasn't so hot to me but another girl flipped out when she saw him so what do I know.
    • Sam Rockwell and Liev Schreiber
      on New Year's Eve but you gotta buy me a few drinks to hear that story.
    • John Turturro
      in Union Square looking tall and handsome. I’ve always had a strange little crush on him.

    8 Things: This I Know

    I follow Magpie Girl on Twitter. On her blog, she asked folks to show a photo of you standing in our own power. I chose this photo because it is a photo where I am allowing myself to be smoldering. I am always smiley, rarely smoldering. At my friend's wedding, after a makeup session that can only be rivaled by Zoe Saldana's in Avatar, I took some glamour shots. This photo was the result and though I feel like it is me on my best, best day. I enjoy it.

    She also inspired me to create my own 8 Things I Know list. The first few are about me but the rest are life lessons of sorts:

    1. That I am smart and funny.

    2. That I am always attracted to men that surprise me (and men with accents).

    3. That you can survive things you never imagined.

    4. That breathe really is everything. 

    5. That even medicore art is inspirational.

    6. That the first thing a man says is always his truth. You have to listen for it though because it's sometimes hard to hear.

    7. (I've said this one before.) That regrets aren't that big a deal. They teach you things.

    8. That you don't have to be skinny to be sexy. (It's a no brainer but I didn't get it until these past few years.)

    8. That you have to take risks in your life in order to grow. (This is something I know but I find difficult to actually practice.)
