We continue to discuss my officiating my cousin Rob’s wedding. Yes, they are now officially married. Yes, we made it to the wedding on time. Yes, I did get the Pollo Loco (late). Yes, we did make it to the show the next day. No, we didn’t kill each other.
Yes, three events on one weekend: Rob and Lorie’s wedding in San Diego, the star’s “friends and family only” show in Toluca Lake, and Carmageddon 2. Great timing. But, we made it to everything, on time, with only our usual level of wear n’ tear.

So, it’s the weekend of my cousin’s wedding, which means I still need my pants, two shirts, undershirts, the ceremony and to get my ass to San Diego on time for the rehearsal. Will I get to the rehearsal on time? Will I get to the audition on time? Will I get off the phone with my agent before I crash the car? Will I ever learn to not drink too much liquid while on a long car trip? Will I?
I do end up buying pants, shirts, hair gell, under shirts (so my nipples don’t show), and either some Diet Coke or some Dr. Pepper. It smelled like Dr. Pepper and it tasted like Dr. Pepper. But should I assume it’s Dr. Pepper?

When I have to call a mail order company to get their address so I can return something, I don’t really want to give them my address. They have my address. How else did the stuff I don’t want get here? I need their address, so I can send the junk back.
My cousin sent me a pair of pants to wear at his wedding. He said I should just take them to a tailor and have them altered. They are 36 x 34. That is so not my size, I think it would be easier to just make a fresh pair.
What is my favorite place? I have no idea. I know what place I’d like you to think is my favorite. Los Feliz. Yeah, some hip place in Los Feliz. Or Silverlake, which is now what Los Feliz was when I lived there. Or would that be Eagle Rock? Maybe Eagle Rock is the new Silverlake, because Silverlake is the new Los Feliz? Forget it. My favorite place is my bed. The end.
How do you best kick start your career in Hollywood when you’re a 19 year-old model from Ohio? Have your dad’s high school friends dress you up like a Playboy bunny for the sake of art, of course! ”Welcome to Los Angeles! The shrinks are in Beverly Hills, step right this way…”
My friend Brahm bought his daughter a part in Gordy Hoffman’s new short film, and bought me several hours driving around looking for an open lingerie store. There is something very surreal about taking your buddy’s daughter to buy stripper shoes on Hollywood Blvd., even if his wife is there with you. Maybe more surreal because his wife is there with you. I don’t know, I have nothing to compare it to.
This is a long show, clocking in at over 2 hours. I didn’t have the heart to break it up, since the ending would make NO sense without the beginning.

Yes, it’s that time of year again. Time for summer to draw to a close, marked, as always, by the annual dissemination of misinformation by and about the kids’ school. Great. Hey, teachers, guess what? It would be a huge help if you didn’t put on the school supply list items that the company that makes them doesn’t even sell anymore. Just saying. And, no, in the eight years I have been shopping off the school’s “Earthquake Kit” list, I still have never seen “canned cheese and crackers.” I must be reading that wrong, right? I suppose if I were willing to talk to other parents, I could have straightened this out years ago…
Tallu had the oppurtunity to act in a demo for a commercial for a big car company. She did a great job and was an absolute professional, especially given that she was dressed like it was Christmas in New Hampshire when it was August in Los Angeles. The kid is a trooper and a true pro. I was impressed and inspired and wanted to punch the camera guy in the temple when he was snippy with us. Yes, I am a protective stage mom.
Since we last spoke, my daughter has done another musical theater camp, my son did another rock camp and I think I was in a commercial. I’m not really sure. I showed up to the shoot. I got my wardrobe on and some powder put on my face. I sat where they asked me to….

Hudson’s video camp was cancelled, so we created our own. Well, we basically started working on his adaptation of Max Quick: The Pocket and the Pendant. Check it all out on Facebook.com/MaxQuickTheWebSeries. We had some friends over for dinner, so I almost burned down the back yard AND the house. Afterwards, we didn’t watch…

I am too busy with kids and lunches and waiting for the plumber to write a big description of this show. I’m sure I’ll get around to it soon. Maybe. Tweet ShareShare this:EmailFacebookStumbleUponSharePrintDiggReddit

Right before we graduated high school, someone had the bright idea that we should have a rock concert at my house. I don’t remember who started the whole thing, but I can confirm that I never ended it. So, on June 25th, 1982, we mounted Fairport’s version of Woodstock. Three bands, one afternoon, one set…

I need a suit. I should have bought a new suit years ago, since my only suit is from 1993. One of the problems is, a real suit costs about $800. I would like to spend about $100. My plan is not working. My daughter is in a musical and wanted to get a good…
