The Post Office Delivers Amusing Things

February 5, 2008 by WendyB

My Amazon order of The Memoirs of a Beautiful Boy by Robert Leleux arrived. I know it doesn’t sound like my usual royal reading, but the author is kind of a queen. Robert and his eccentric, wig-wearing, man-chasing mother live in dull Petunia, Texas (“Where God Stuck the Enema,” as Mother calls it), but drive…

This bunny rucksack by Stella McCartney for LeSportsac is available for pre-order now. It reminds me of Donnie Darko. Donnie: Why do you wear that stupid bunny suit? Frank: Why are you wearing that stupid man suit?WendyB: Why are you wearing that bunny rucksack?

February 5, 2008 by WendyB

Patti LuPone in Evita back in the day As I mentioned on my wrongly-blocked-by-Google blog, Patti LuPone is one of my obsessions. So today is a happy day, my peeps! I have tickets to see Patti (again) in Gypsy. The show has moved to Broadway! Get your tickets at telecharge.com. If you go, keep an…

Musings on Voting and Football

February 4, 2008 by WendyB

If you live in one of the Super Tuesday states, don’t forget to vote. There’s no excuse not to vote because Buffy the Vampire Slayer is off the air. Some years ago, a woman I worked with went to her disorganized voting place, waited and waited and then left before getting to vote because the…

My Latest Ode to Latex Love

February 3, 2008 by WendyB

Practically Pregnant in Every Way reminded me that the insanely beauteous Monica Belluci rocked a white latex dress in at least one of the Matrix movies. (Give me a break, peeps. She’s not a queen so I’m not going to do major research on what was worn in which movie.) Matrix peeps in black latex…

WendyB Does Interviews

February 1, 2008 by WendyB

In the movie Working Girl, Tess (Melanie Griffith) says, “I have a head for business and a bod for sin. Is there anything wrong with that?” No, there isn’t. Unfortunately, I don’t have those qualities. As this video will prove, I have a face for radio and a voice for silent movies. You need to…

Nomi Malone Loves Versace Too

February 1, 2008 by WendyB

Some fashionistas assume Versace always looks like the purple dress below, complete with scary, too-tan makeup. No, there was no time to start over. I had to go out with an orange face and white arms. Shit happens! Get over it. Sometimes peeps have armgina, sometimes they have bad makeup. Orange you glad to see…

More Shenanigans

January 31, 2008 by WendyB
