Some Childhood Photos!
Saturday, February 9th, 2008Here is a photo of me from my 1st birthday party. I don’t remember anything that happened so I must have been pretty drunk.
My mom sewed everything we are wearing in this next photograph. I love the bias cut long skirt with the contrasting panels. That kind of skirt is very hard to sew at home because the weave of the fabric has to be lined up just right. I hate to sew on the fucking bias! My mom was into it though. I bet she would have been a pretty mean contender on “Project Runway.”
Clearly, I was really obsessed with Holly Hobby. I was all prairie oriented. I would only read books by Laura Ingalls Wilder, which I now feel are terribly racist and sexist, but I didn’t really understand that then. I would only drink milk - no water or soda! I rocked that bonnet all the time and even had a special one for bedtime - I shit you not. I had a tantrum because my parents would not let me carry around a candle at night!
Why does every single kid from the 70s have some version of this photo? Please send me yours.
The Burn
Wednesday, November 21st, 2007
Look at my burn!!! It is terrible!!! Right on my forehead. It is really big and sometimes throbs. I got it from using Selene’s curling iron last week. Here is how it happened. First of all, it is all my fault, and it is hygiene related. My hair was really greasy. Last week I was so exhausted from doing shows that I just gave up on washing my hair. If you ever see me doing a show, and it looks like my hair is wet, it is actually not wet, it is greasy because I am tired!!!! People who are working with me, like Ian, usually notice this and then start to yell at me to wash my hair. Anyway, my hair was really greasy and I saw Selene using a curling iron and her hair looked so nice and not greasy and I thought that if I used it that it would somehow make all the strands lie together. Only a dummy wouldn’t realize the only way to have the strands all lie flat together is to wash it, but of course I was too lazy to do that. So I took Selene’s curling iron to my weary head and tried to scoop up my greasy, separated bangs with it. The iron was as hot as it could be, and sizzled when it hit my hair. There was a distinct bacon smell. Then I started laughing and showing off to everyone about how my hair was greasy and now it smelled like bacon. As I was going on and on about it, the iron slipped through my greasy bangs and landed right on my forehead! It burned!!! I was so mad that I burned myself and desperately looked around for someone to blame but it was all my fault!!! Now I have this terrible burn!! Please be careful if you are a showgirl or fancy type who must curl your bangs!! Make sure they are clean!! Do not show off about the dirtiness of your hair that smells like bacon!!! Don’t burn your forehead like I did!!!

Tuesday, August 28th, 2007I just got an amazing tattoo from Kat Von D on her show ‘LA Ink.’ I have been a fan for a long time and I am so excited to finally have it done. Kat is incredible and totally nice and funny and fun. We had an awesome time and it didn’t even hurt because Kat is so pretty nothing she does could possibly hurt anyone!
