One of my guilty pleasures is definitely celebrity gossip and keeping up with their lives. Truthfully, I really wouldn’t give a rat’s ass, and I certainly wouldn’t recognize half of the celebs in the spotlight had I not discovered the beauty that is perez hilton.

I think celebrities are a strange breed of being because WHAT IS WITH all the skeletons that roam the streets of Hollywood? I just don’t understand what gets in their heads, which I think I do believe it really is a mental issue because food tastes good. Anyone that can deny it enough to look like Nichole Richie has some serious issues. And I actually like the girl. What I know of her anyway.

I just don’t get it. Celebrities are weird, but they sure are fun to read about… mostly cos they make me feel good about myself.

No one cares about people anymore. No one cares about their neighbors, no one cares about the fact that everyone in this world is living under the same sky, we see the same moon, the same stars, we breathe the same oxygen and most importantly we are all just trying to fucking survive while we are here on this Earth, no one cares about any of that anymore.

I’d been meaning to order my dooce shirt for a couple of weeks now. Recently I went to buy it, but because I’ve gone to buy it so many times, I really couldn’t remember if I had or not. Yesterday I noticed that the company they are sold through billed me, which means yay! I actually ordered it like I thought. I didn’t realize it’d show up so fast, though. I guess I ordered it a little on the big side. Oops. I’d return it.. but well, I couldn’t but wear it.

I stumbled upon dooce.com when she was pregnant and have been reading her website religiously ever since. I am fascinated with her. Not in one of those creepy, scary ways (at least I don’t think so…) but I think she writes beautifully and I admire her accomplishments. I love most though reading about her relationship with her daughter. It comforts me to see that even though their daughter is still so young, they love her deeply.

Not too long ago Lesley signed on and shared some cool things with me.

• My vedic name astrology says ARTIST, will infuse, inspire and pull society upward and forward through idealistic contributions

• My karmic lesson is selfless service

• My birth date says family and home oriented, exude understanding and compassion. Connoisseur of luxury, in need of comfort, loving philosophy, fair minded, fine sense of justice. Artistic and beauty loving, generous, not necessarily logical with finances. Vulnerable to praise and criticism, responsible and willing to sacrifice for others, value friends and provide a safe port for them in times of need. Fulfilled in marriage and as parents. Emotional, idealistic and imaginative. May worry too much and suffer from chronic stomach problems. Will spend long periods of time alone.

My brother’s baby girl, Laura was born yesterday. Everyone go congratulate him, she’s as cute as a button!

The house inspection is going good so far. They found some electrical wiring issues but it sounds like the seller is going to cooperate with us completely, which I hope is the case. Not only do I really want this house, but putting so much time into it will really set me back with my lease ending in March. Please oh, please!

Since my camera is completely broken I believe it is time for an upgrade. To a digital SLR. Big stuff, I’m still browsing at the moment and really have no idea which one to let my heart get set on but we’ll see. I think it’ll be fun to try and get into photography a bit. Learning new things is exciting!

Dude, Lesley is REALLY good at playing the fiddle.
