My life is brilliant!

This post is dedicated to Amy Hurdcakes because we finally spoke this weekend!! Sometimes we like to sing a little James Blunt when we're on the phone with each other. Amy, you're BEA-U-ti-FUL!  I can't wait to come visit you in New Orleans, but I will miss the P-burgh and all our misadventures there.  


Weekend was pretty chill. Hung out with Les, Sonny and Maberly on Friday. We went to dinner at a new sushi place, Sapporo. First bad sign: no Sapporo in sight! How can a restaurant be named after a beer and not serve any? It's just not right. Second bad sign: the sushi does not stick together and I look like a sushi novice with rice all over myself. Third bad sign: some of the sashimi did not look so fresh. I will not be going there ever again.  

Next up: In Bruges. SO funny! Colin Farrell needs to do more movies like this. Good ones, I mean. It's so un-PC it's hilarious. Two words: racist midgets. Go see it.  

Saturday was full of laundry and watching a Jackass marathon with Nolan. Sunday I hung out with the fam and watched the Oscars. My predictions were a little off, but I did win the pool at my house in case anyone is keeping score. I must say that No Country for Old Men is a fine, fine film and deserves the accolades. The Oscars seemed really, really long this year though. One redeeming thing: they showed Steven Spielberg a lot.  I made the mistake of telling everyone I thought he was hot.  I was mocked mercilessly for the rest of the evening. I'm not taking it back, he IS hot!!




My sister Heather and her family are in town and we had a big dinner tonight. It was so nice to see everyone!

Hey, Valerie Bertinelli just revealed she slept with Spielberg. He's kind of cute. :) I missed you at book club.

Oh my god! I just opened your blog from work, and all I saw was my FACE. Thanks for the dedication. I can't believe you're going to NOLA without me!!! Be sure to take the street car up St. Charles when you're there.
