It has belatedly occurred to me that not everyone understands what the iHog<\/a> (aka Fernando von Bakonstein) is about. You people should be ashamed of yourselves. DON’T YOU KNOW WHO HE IS?!? No? Oh. Then click here<\/a> and here.<\/a><\/p>\n

After a busy Saturday<\/a> spent sightseeing and hog-nogging with an Oscar nominee, Fernando and I were planning to take it easy and maybe do a little work on my “soon-to-be-launched” website<\/a>. Frankly, I think it’s more likely that a space ship to Mars will launch with me and Fernando on it before this website launches. Elephants<\/a> will conceive and give birth before this website launches. The day this website launches, the devil will be all like, “Shizz, hand me a sweater, will ya?” Anyway, as I was saying before I so rudely interrupted myself (Shut up! No, you shut up! No, you!), Fernando and I were going to have a quiet night at home.<\/p>\n

Then Andrea<\/a> called. I threw on an Ossie Clark<\/a> dress, put on my American Apparel latex-look leggings<\/a> and hopped a cab with Fernando.<\/p>\n

That’s how Fernando and I wound up at 1OAK<\/a> at 11 PM, having one of the more decadent nights I’ve had in a long time.<\/p>\n

1OAK owner Simon Akiva (the man responsible for my beautiful birthday party<\/a> at Butter<\/a>) hung out with us. We heart Simon!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Andrea, Simon and Fernando<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

My gorgeous client Chris was there. She’s Andrea’s friend and I’d never met her in person before, so I was thrilled. She was wearing my Clemence ring<\/a> in black spinel.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Chris and Fernando<\/span>
<\/span><\/div>\n

Fernando got crazy and dove into the Champagne bucket.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Fernando, that’s no way to drown your sorrows.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

I thanked Andrea for organizing such an exciting night.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Thank you, Andrea!<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

I found a new BFF. I call her, “What’s your name again?”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I love you, total stranger!<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

I gladly relinquished my “most amazing bosom<\/a>” title when I met Kristen. Or Kristin. I don’t know which vowel she uses but she has the best cleavage ever! I must get a WendyB necklace nestled in there. That is, if Simon doesn’t get there first. I swear, this is NOT what it looks like.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Really, this was entirely innocent!
He was reaching for the bottle.
Honest to God!
<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

Now for the moment you’ve all been waiting for: the evidence that I left the house wearing latex leggings (sorry, Asudem<\/a>, but you know what I mean.)<\/p>\n

Get ready.<\/p>\n

Here they are ….<\/p>\n

Oh, wait.<\/p>\n

No one managed to take a picture of them.<\/p>\n

I knew this would be disappointing to you all, so when BarbaraB<\/a> and GeorgeB<\/a> asked me to dinner tonight, I put on the exact same outfit so I could take a picture for you. First, of course, we had to do the Fernando photo.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>BarbaraB, GeorgeB and FernandoVonB<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

THEN we took the leggings photo. That’s not my motorcycle; we were just walking by it. I am holding Fernando.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Click to enlarge, perverts!<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

The best thing about this outfit is how aggravating it would be to the fashion police<\/a> with all their fascist rules<\/a> for women over 40. I’m wearing a too-short dress with latex leggings! Mwah ha ha ha. MWAH HA HA HA HA! Fuck y’all if you don’t like it.<\/p>\n

As for the leggings, with some TLC from Jean at Ghost Tailor<\/a>, the waistband was much improved though I still had to hitch ’em up once in a while. And they kind of bunch up at the knees. But I got used to it. They were a surprisingly big hit with the peeps last night. So there you have it. I’ll definitely wear them again. And I’ll be even older then than I was on Saturday. Suck it, bitches! <\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
