-taye diggs- short and seemingly unfriendly. winning combination. however, his butt is terrific. I think that makes up for it.
-christina milian- very small, but seemed like a diva. well, maybe just more of a brat than a diva. brought in her own trainer to the gym. he was fat. that was weird.
-brody jenner- cute. but his taste in ladies (lauren from the hills) leaves something to be desired. and he has like 8 step-families, including the kardashians. If we got married, they'd probably rope me into some extended family penthouse layout. not going there.
-mark feuerstein- at IHOP with a kid. I hope it's his. haha. this is the guy who couldn't please miranda on sex and the city. that really doesn't narrow it down. he starred on the short-lived nbc sitcom good morning, miami. that probably doesn't help either. there was a reason it was short-lived.
-chris noth- back in gym. always checking the class schedule board, but never actually attending any. he can't be that busy. Gym offers 34897340 classes a day.
-dave navarro- this made my day today. he's really small. and the way he carries himself makes me think he is a humongous dork, like all he did as a teen was play dungeons and dragons and maybe the clarinet.

January 10, 2008
interesting day yesterday, not so much today.
noteworthy:
-in addition to mukluks, appropriate workout footwear apparently includes aquasocks. I didn't even know it was appropriate to wear those anywhere anymore, let alone to the gym. fascinating.
-we have a spa at my gym. at this spa, there is some treatment that is guaranteed to result in an immediate loss of 2-8 inches of flab from your body part of choice. basically, they paint some chemicals on you, then attach electrodes (like a defibrillator), and shock you for 30 minutes. riiiiiiight.
-yesterday, I made my first afternoon/evening trip to the gym. around 4:45, i noticed the demographic began to shift from a good mix of men/women, gay/straight, etc... to all men, all white or latino and all... well-coiffed and spandex-clad. and I kid you not, like clockwork, at 5pm, some ludacris songs ends, cher comes on, and I don't hear another song from any genre but gay for 2 hours. you'd think management would have recognized that trend by now and make sure all the very gay and very cute trainers were on the floor instead of the two poor Mormon fraternal twin trainers that time of day. also, I don't know if any of you are will and grace fans, but there is one episode where there is a gay mafia, and elton john is the godfather of the gay mafia. at the gym, it's kind of the same, except it was more like there was a gay mayor, making the rounds, shaking hands, kissing babies (code for pinching butts and sharing pilates tips). I don't think he lifted a single weight while he was there. And no one didn't know him, and some guys did seem a little intimidated- like they were obligated to say hi to him. the worst part though is that he is not famous, he's all of 5'2, and he looks like a weasel.
new sightings:
-Alison Janney- seemed normal, like an actual person. except it seemed like she had a crush on one of the pilates trainers. who is beyond gay. picture andy dick's character in old school. come to think of it, maybe it is andy dick. haha.
-kevin connelly-redder hair than on entourage. and even shorter than I thought. fyi- an actor being short in comparison to other actors means that actor is 4'10. max.
-giuliana depandi- host of some E! show. scary skinny. serious lollipop head.
charlie o'connell- jerry o'connell's less attractive twin. Walks around looking like he needs attention. Can’t imagine why.
-neil patrick harris- doogie howser. very cute, too bad he was there between 5 and 7, if you take my point. haha. it's weird- for everyone else, the camera seems to add 10 or 20 pounds. for him, it seems to subtract it. he is actually buff.
-jonathan bennett- lindsay lohan's love interest in mean girls. so I stand corrected. this is the guy who i thought was the guy from the hills episode. it's not. and the first time I saw him, I totally thought he was checking me out. he wasn't. he is like the deputy mayor of gay hour. flirts with everyone. and takes the music video dance cardio class. he could be a pussycat doll.
SPEAKING OF THE HILLS, let me get to my tale of Hyde the other night. sooooo, rommie and i get to hyde (which I find out is the most exclusive club in hollywood, and paris hilton might show up) at about 11:15, skip the line, and are seated at the head couch area. we are VIPs. everyone there is very chic, very obviously wealthy, and look like they are 16 years old. roomie says they are all paris hiltons. no jobs, no talent, replete with STDs. they just haven't released their sex tapes yet. oh, and ivanka trump was there with a friend of roomie's, so we talked to her for a while. but honestly, she was seated at the next area over (non-VIP), so she is lucky we gave her the time of day. haha. so we aren't even there 20 minutes, and roomie turns to me and says apparently, paris just showed up. sure enough, every time the door to the club opens for the next 10 minutes, we can see paparazzi flashbulbs going off outside. and eventually, in walks paris, and it was almost like she was there to perform the way everything stopped, and everyone gravitated toward her (and me, since she was AT MY TABLE). the adoration and idolization couldn't have been more obvious if everyone had stood up and clapped for her. anyhoo, since we are old and have jobs and therefore didn't fit in, we left soon thereafter. but while we were waiting at the valet stand, audrina (from the hills) shows up with some guy who was not justin bobby AND HAD TO WAIT TO GET IN. hahahaha, amateur.

new sightings:
-chris noth- Mr. Big, in the flesh. so I have just arrived at my gym. I am about to throw my towel down on a bike (three months to the triathlon. yikes.), I look up, and MR BIG IS ON A TREADMILL RIGHT BEHIND ME. I nearly wet my pants. And I did miss the bike when I tried to throw my towel on it, and then hit my head bending over to pick it up off the floor. Neat. Not a spazz, I swear. Anyhoo, guess I don't need to add that I am a Noth fan. I almost left immediately to email you all about this one, but I doubt anyone else would be as excited (except Grubar). He looked pretty much the same as he does on SATC, except not quite as Hagrid-like when not standing next to Sarah Jessica Parker. I mean seriously. He looks like a yeti. where was the casting logic there?
-John Krasinski- this, even more so than mr. big, made my day. so hopes for seeing him again soon are slim, because I was at a random burrito place (shocking, I know). he was so cute. but with a doofus in the classic west hollywood hoodie and sunglasses "I don't want to be recognized but really I do because why else would I be wearing this" uniform. So I don't appreciate his taste in friends. he should have ditched friend and come to sit with me. obviously.
-Aaron Eckhart- skinnier than I expected. smaller head too. jumps rope. I can't jump rope, so I will call him a fruitcake for doing something so lame. hehehe. oh, and all the other guys who jump rope do it in a very 4th grade girl type way, so identifying with them doesn't exactly make one a lumberjack, if you take my point.
-JANICE DICKINSON- wow. looks a little less plastic scary in real life. very skinny. very small. wears her pony tail on top of her head in such a manner that reminds me of emory AEPhis. I wonder if she is also a coked out slut. oh wait, we already know she is thanks to E! True Hollywood Story. Oh snap. She already invited one of my friends to audition for her show next season.
-Cacee Cobb- does she count? Jessica Simpson's ex-assistant, currently dating Donald Faison (from Scrubs). I shouldn't know these things. Anyway, big head. Like pumpkin-sized. Too much make-up for the grocery store. But really sweet.
-Justin Chambers- Alex from Grey's Anatomy. and he looked like a butthead. Just like Alex Karev back when he was still a dipshit on the show. he was wearing reflective aviators. and it was 9pm. enough said.
-some guy who looks like he belongs on a soap, but was on something else. can't remember what. I'll figure it out.
noteworthy stuff:
-apparently it's completely normal to work out in mukluk boots. I had no idea.
-MY ROOMMATE REPRESENTS SOMEONE WHO THROWS PARTIES AT ALL THE SBE CLUBS. SBE IS BOLTHOUSE. BOLTHOUSE IS THE GUY HEIDI WORKS FOR ON THE HILS. I AM GOING TO HYDE TONIGHT WITH HIM FOR A PARTY THEY ARE THROWING. APPARENTLY ONLY CELEBRITIES GO TO CLUBS DURING THE WEEK BECAUSE THAT'S WHEN THE RIFF-RAFF (ie ME) CAN'T GET IN. Obviously, I will keep you posted.
