And before that...

Here's me and Ann on the steps of Kansas this June. I'm the one with some chink in me.

So on non-Ann topics, Kathryn and Elli are here in LA selling their wares (tiaras and costume jewelry.. but like for REAL tiaras. not precious jewels, but lots of antique and discontinued costume stones.. they're the fuckin bomb)(they're called Tiara Misu) at the LA Gift Show and so I went, and it was a Fuckin' Trip. The tagline was something like "This is where trends are made" and the beauty of it was that most of the show is like... this is where people come up with new and updated ways to pose kittens for contemporary, modern 2001 "Hang in there!" posters, no joke. It was pretty amazing. Of course there were one or two (or a dozen... out of like 4,000) exhibitors with interesting stuff there so totally worth going for free (especially cause downstairs was the wholesale cash and carry section.. i got a pretty handpainted Turkish bowl for $17.). Anyway, Kathryn and Elli partied with Michael Flatley the night before, and I thought you should know.

I would like, before I die, to party with Michael Flatley I imagine. I can say at least that I have been to a Korean Rave with Zack Inside Out, but I think partying with Michael Flatley might be more memoir-worthy.
