So I was mistaken in my last post. The photog did take a lot of pics of English Beat, and you can see them in a slideshow on the Houston Press website. Sorry Marco.
Soul Nite

CLH and I got married at the original Aurora Picture Show church and yet, in all our years together and in Houston we’ve never been members. We go to tons of their events and pay full price for each one, and we’ve always talked about joining but just never have.
Until Friday.
All last week I was psyched about going to Soul Nite. I even interviewed the curator. Friday afternoon we decided that instead of paying $10 each for tickets, we’d splurge and finally become members of Aurora. Giving back to the organization that gave us a place to get hitched.
On Saturday we met our scooter club at the Eldorado Ballroom and danced until the curls fell out of my hair.

This is where I’m staying in L.A. (well, Santa Monica) right now. Built in 1933. Walking distance from everything. Right across from the beach. In short, AWESOME.

Jezebel’s list of the sexiest men *not* included in Life’s Sexiest Men of the ’50s, ’60s and ’70s includes Jean-Paul Belmondo. Vindicated!

The wall comes tumbling down

A year ago I met CLH in Germany and proceeded to spend five days and four nights in Berlin, a city I knew nothing about and was only minutely interested in. It ended up being one of my favorite places in the world.
I wish I could say I remember watching The Wall fall on television but the truth is that I’ve seen those images so many times I have a hard time distinguishing from what is remembered and what is filling in the gaps. But I was nine years old, and the fall would be an event that would go on to shape the rest of my childhood, it shaped everyone who grew up in the ’80s childhood, and that still affects me today.
Berlin is an amazing city that has had the chance, over the last 20 years, to create it’s own identity from scratch. I would love to live there. I wish I was there now.

Via the Houston Zoo Twitter feed. There’s something creepy about it, no?
Morton’s

Here was my Halloween costume this past weekend. No, I was not Catherine Deneuve from Les Parapluies de Cherbourg as someone suggested.
I say was my Halloween costume because the event I am going to on actual Halloween is a party where men dress as women and women dress as men. I am not sure which well-known male character I am going to dress as yet.
Did you know the phrase “When it rains it pours” is not just some easily-dispensed grandmotherly wisdom, but was actually a creation of the Morton Salt’s advertising agency in 1911. That’s why the Salt Girl carries an umbrella.
Most flattering photo ever

I went to the most awesome baby shower Friday for an awesome friend who will be having awesome twins come 2010 (maybe earlier). I post this photo because I ike to be reminded of how silly I look sometimes.
