Day 2

another happening day! which unfortunately began with my alarm going off at 4:15 so I could be at work at 5:30, and i was wedged in between the sofa cushions and the backrest of our stupid couch because my bed isn't here yet, but whatever. at least this couch doesn't dye my face blue when i drool on it like my old one did.

-question of the day: how do you know when you REALLY have too much time on your hands?answer: when you have time to drive around your neighborhood for an hour and a half looking for a drive-thru starbucks because you are too lazy to get out of your car. britney spears would be proud of me. :0)

new sightings:-mark mcgrath (formerly of sugar ray, now of entertainment tonight, I think)- pretty short/ and has a funny shaped head. kind of upside down triangle shaped. it was hard to keep from staring, and of course he thought I was staring because I thought he was hot or because he's famous or whatever. but nope, just trying to figure out if it was his hair that gave him alien-head or it was just his head.
-pauly shore- ok, saw him the day of my interview so not a new sighting. but new to you. wearing doofy bandana. sidenote- seems like everyone here has some ridiculous headwear, so i'm thinking it's time I adopted a new style. I'm open to suggestion. or I could just wear my tigger ears all the time.
-some girl from something who is quasi-famous. help me out here. I think her name is christina, but I have no idea what she's from. I know. helpful.
-this is a star stretch, but think back to "the hills" season 1. heidi was dating jordan, I think. Jordan had a best friend, whose name escapes me, but he took audrina out early in the season. so "friend" was in today. cuter in person than he was on the show. heidi should have dated him instead. then maybe she wouldn't be saddled with doucheclown spencer. anyhoo...
-some girl I recognize but I think it's from emory and not hollywood. which means she's real and thus uninteresting, so nevermind.

non-new sightings:reynolds and molina were back, and reynolds lifted heavier weights so he is upgraded from coxswain to 2 seat (port-rigged though, so still lame). appleby was there too. and her show was called roswell, in case anyone cares. I don't. But I have nothing else to do but look these things up. And Lathan has not been back, but I got a surprising number of comments about her. For the record, she is strong, not particularly cute, and does not seem approachable. Maybe if I didn't look like such a butthead, this would not be the case. Oh well.

noteworthy incidents:
1) the waiter at this place "the griddle house" offered me a huge dog today, because I finished my pancakes. he said I looked nice and had a good appetite (ps- only in hollywood does a girl who finishes one pancake have a good appetite. ok the pancake was huge but still...), therefore, I would probably also like a humongous dog that was about to be put to sleep because it's gigantic. I didn't want to offend him by letting on that I threw party the day we put our dog to sleep, so I told him I live on the street and it would be hard to fit a dog in my cardboard box with me.
2) I was at starbucks (santa monica and la brea in case you're interested), waiting for my drink. Three large, unattractive women walk in and sit down at a table next to me. I realize immediately (upon hearing their james earl jones-like voices) that they are not women. One of them actually may have been ru paul. anyhoo, ru says something to the effect of "my boss didn't know about the group, and now we (meaning the tran clan) can't meet at my office anymore. so we'll meet here instead." wow. what was even better was that I was the only one staring. only in LA.

Day 1

today was a big day at the gym. stars galore. well, calling some of them stars may be an overstatement. :0) here are today's sightings:

-ryan reynolds (more petite than one would expect and struggled with weights I could have lifted)
-alfred molina (skinnier than I thought. I guess the camera does add 10 pounds. or just a gut. weird)
-amanda peet (seemed like a brat. felt bad for the guy she was with, who is either just the father of her child or is the father and her husband. either way, he's stuck with her for life. woof)
-shiri appleby (very tiny. and obscure. what was that show she was on? it was like the OC but with aliens.)
-marcia cross (I think)
-lots of horrific plastic faces (my gag reflex was tested mightily, and has been each day since I arrived. crap)
-sanaa lathan (I think, but you probably don't even know who she is, so whatever...)

and that's today's list. I'll try to keep you updated consistently, until of course I am famous and forget who you are. hehehe.
