Lindsey Lohan

I do not normally like to go negative, but holy shit, Lindsey Lohan is a fucking moron! Millions of dollars, a high-profile career (pun not entirely intended), and she keeps shooting herself in the foot. They are called taxis Lohan! Take one!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

An old friend sent me the newest Harry Potter this past Monday and I finished it yesterday. It is a beautiful book. Every lurking question is answered and, while there is death, it claims none of our core heroes. That's right kids: Harry lives. Hermione lives. Ron lives.

The epilouge of the story takes us 19 years into the future and we are given a brief, but very illuminating, glimpse into what becomes of all of them. Think love, think marriage, think children.

Rowling fully wrecked me when she revealed that the son of one of our heroes has been called 'Albus.' After the great Dumbledore (who also becomes part of the story).

Very moving. Very.

I feel very privileged to have been able to read this book earlier than most people...I very much needed something to make me smile and this certainly brought many. Reading the most top-secret book in the world has a way of making you feel special.

And I feel special today.

And I Feel...

Enjoy Madonna's performances of "Hey You" and "Ray of Light" from LiveEarth, and as I wrote on her blog she has NEVER looked or sounded better...and tell me she does not look bad ass with that guitar MOTHERFUCKERS!

Grace.

Grace by Robert Sandy

Through graceful sublimation I am carried away from your intrepid pioneering--
your eyes frozen to glass as the very nature of me becomes but smoke against your horizon.

Listless, wilting, I can feel your seething regret even as my journey becomes fixed and away from you.

You, who I used to find brilliant, are now only third-rate to me--ridiculous.

And all that remains is this one truth:
everyone will leave you eventually.
