Creativity Abounds
It was another stellar weekend - Saturday we finally, got everything going for the photo shoot for the new
Swivek album. The shoot went
excellent and all my peeps were the
quissessential models. It's going to look great!
Then on Sunday, I did a little shopping on Hollywood Boulevard and found my Halloween costume, not to mention stopping at American Apparel and buying myself some slutty short shorts and calf high soccer socks, just cuz it's hot... and then it was off to a video shoot for Shitting Glitter's new video. Though we missed the main shots of the video, we filmed a little more at Palm's and I'm so in there - just what they needed a cameo by Swivek!
Tonight there's even more glamour to be had as the Boofont Sisters will be performing at Here Lounge - conventiently located just down the street from my home... and they'll be performing with proceeds going to the Matthew Shephard Foundation and it's all for the DVD release of Sordid Lives - The Series so some of the cast may be there! If Olivia shows up you'll hear me scream - no matter where you live...
So stay tuned for some updates on
Swivek (
http://www.swivek.com/) as a release date for the new album is just around the corner - plus there will be videos!!
and if you're in the land of the La La's come see me and the Boofonts you'll love it.

A Few Of My Favorite Things 2
I love buying stuff, I am not sure why exactly it brings such a thrill but I can barely stand to go one week without buying something new, and of course most of the stuff I buy is music and clothes and shoes and booze. Though movies sometimes get in there as well. Either way, sometimes I just drink my booze, put on some tunes, lie on the floor and look at all my stuff. Does that make me superficial or just nuts?
As you can maybe tell it's time for another round of a few of my favorite things so here we go:
My pal Cissell (two days and two mentions??) loves her some fancy shoes, she even writes a Wednesday blog called Shoe Porn where she lusts over sexy stilettos and the like, well I too have a huge fondness for shoes and my latest kick is in the kicks made
Van's - okay, really I've always had Van's so my obsession is just a continuation but I did buy a few more pairs recently in fact when my mom and sister were here we went to the Beach to see the Leivas' family and as we were headed back to WeHo I smelled me a Van's store and we went in. I'm only up to 5 pairs so far these are in my collection (minus an American flag pair that I can't find a pic of) Anyway here's what I have (love them!):
Then of course I love to get my drink on - and upon a visit to Barney's Beanery one summer afternoon I discovered
Strongbow. It's an English cider that tastes like a strong apple beer, it's so good and so summery I think I may have to run to BevMo and buy me a few cans after work... oh and if you get it, by all means get the cans not the bottles - it's just so good when you pour it into an iced glass!
and finally something to watch while drinking your Strongbow and showing off your new kicks - it's SORDID LIVES the movie - I have loved this movie for years and years - I mean ONJ as a lesbian ex-convict who snaps gum and sings at funerals, a one legged man who killed his elderly lover when she slipped over his leg in the night, frickin' Beth Grant as Sissy, the sister of the ill fated woman and a sassy gal who has just quit smoking - oh and Leslie Jordan as a Tammy Wynette impersonator - it has it all and now it's going to be a TV series and the Leivas and I have tickets for Outfest this Saturday where they will be airing the first two episodes. I can't wait. ONJ in a TV series - hello! To see why the movie is so good - here's a little clip to enjoy:
