Please eat something. Soon.

She is My Queen!

Love Game by Lady Gaga is my summer jam. Do you see how she is working the camera towards the end?

5 Lessons from Paris.

No, not Paris France. But, Paris Hilton. Seriously. I stumbled upon this article from Glamour and got a good chuckle out of it. In fact, I actually found myself nodding along. See what you think.

5 Lessons We've Learned From Paris Hilton:

1. Never be embarrassed. Sex tape? Stint in jail? Night out sans panties? Yeah. So what. Shrug your shoulders, stick your chin up and act like it’s NBD. Denial and resistance creates controversy, but go with the flow and the water runs right off your back.

2. Be your own biggest fan. If someone hacked into my Blackberry, she’d find pictures of random misspelled signs and deep fried Twinkies (not that I ate one) (OK fine, it was a dare) (OK fine, it wasn’t a dare). But not Paris. When someone swiped her sim card a few years ago, we saw pic after pic of the celebutant making various Blue Steel faces for no one in particular. And why not? You only get one face, you might as well adore it!

3. Let him treat you well. You’re not betraying your feminist roots by accepting the princess treatment with a willing smile. True love doesn’t have to be subtle. It can sparkle like keys to your new Maybach and sing like Leona Lewis, who he just happened to book for your birthday party.

4. Keep family close. Most of us stopped matching outfits with our siblings when we turned 6, but not Paris—she’ll trot down the red carpet with sister Nicky in identical dresses. Not the best look for regular folks, but follow her lead in being besties with your sis? Always a Do!

5. Never be afraid to dump a guy. I swear on all things bedazzled, there is another one around the corner. And chances are he’s hotter, richer and…well, that’s a pretty good start.

Sure, in my mind the "Paris Hiltons of the world" are what is wrong with society, but I think these points are surprisingly true. What do you think?

Craving.

I am really craving a tall mojito right about now. The weather

is delicious outside and I think a mojito would be a nice compliment.

The Salsa Room in Arlington has excellent mojitos, chock full of flavor,

mint, lime and sugary rum. Yes, please! What are you craving?

World Record at William & Mary!

Virginia college William & Mary has broken a world record for having the most people dance simultaneously to Michael Jackson's Thriller. The previous record was 147 at a school in Great Britain. I think my new summer goal will be to break this record. Whose got a boom box and lots of beer?

Where Is My Inhaler?

The lovely Chris Pine graces the cover

of this month's GQ. Wow. Just wow.

"Don't I look dapper?"

So spiffy.

You're welcome.

Reason Number 543 Why I Love Gaga!

"I would never even think about it (lip synching). The whole point to me is, if you’re gonna be number one, you better really be fucking number one. If you’re gonna be on top, you better be able to do all those things, because it’s a real privilege to be able to make music everyday, and I get away with a lot…Andy Warhol says art is what you can get away with, and I get away with a lot with my music and my clothes, and I work really hard so I could truly be a real artist for all my fans. That’s really fucked up when you lip-synch.”

God, I love her.

I think it's actually insulting that artists these days think that they can get up on stage and lipsync. Give me a break. Gaga forever! Sidenote: I wish I could rock a hair-bow. Side-sidenote: I am feelin' her Versace shades.

Wish List Part 1,351,463!

I would be so modern day Elizabeth Taylor in this necklace, no?
I have been lovin' on this necklace for over a year. Every few months I go
back to check the website and, oh yea, it's still $757.00 Bummer.

It's very 'sipping-gin-and-tonics-on-my-chase-lounge-wearing-my-jewels-
for-no-reason-at-all,' no? One day when I am not living in a shoe-box and metaphorically
eating Ramen Noodles I will adorn my neck with jewels like this, thankyouverymuch!

Cruise Countdown.

So, I'm leaving for a cruise in 12 days. Jealous? I have never

been on a cruise and have some idea of what to expect but...

For any of your jet set divas or gents out there who have been

on a cruise, do you you have any advice? What do I need to

bring (besides the obvious sunscreen, bathing suit, blah blah)?

What should I expect? Any suggestions are welcome!

Pressured to Get Married?

Cup of Jo-Joanna's Smitten blog recently touched on an interesting topic, involving marriage and whether or not your parents pressure you to get married.

So, do your parents pressure you to get married? Do you ever hear the, "When am I going to have grand-kids?" speech or "Has be propsed yet?"

My mom is under the 'live out your twenties until you get married/you have the rest of your life to be married' mindset. She's told me numerous times to wait until marriage. As for my dad, I am pretty sure that he would have a heart-attack if I got married anytime soon. So in short, no, my parents don't pressure me to get married. Thank God. But, what about you? And if you're already hitched, did your parents pressure or pester you?
