it’s been a hectic few days here in girlhattan...
thursday i went on a date, which — along with the tsunami and global warming — is one of the true signs of the apocalypse. {he was charming, and I do love
nublu, where we had cocktails and listened to gypsy beats.}
later i popped in at
orchard bar where it was DJ henry’s swan song. i spent my entire
summer dancing til
4AM with henry and
melissa... henry will be missed!
friday there were after work drinks at
good world. i hadn’t been there in a while, but i suddenly realized that with the elk head and the meatballs, good world was
freeman’s before freeman’s existed.
saturday i had to hit
toys in babeland to find a copy of
sweet action magazine since my boy izzy from
uncle fucker is in the new issue. i’ve known izzy since we were both about 16 years old, but i’d never seen him naked before. it was worth the wait.
later that night i went to see
m.i.a. at the knitting factory. she’s so damn cute. no wonder all the
blog boys sweat her.
stopped by the tribeca grand and
people after – so dead. what's up with that,
tommy saleh?
sunday i went to see
mike albo’s show at
ps 122, which was insane and great. he did an interpretive trend dance that incorporated the lance armstrong bracelet, a pashmina, an 8 track and six sizes of cell phones. hard to explain, hysterical to watch.
after the show i started feeling ill, and later that night I had a fever. so monday i stayed home sick and watched black and white movies.
baby doll is so brilliant, i hadn’t seen it since i was in high school but caroll baker is awesome. can it be true that this movie is
not on DVD?
i also watched
lolita -- the kubrick version. shelley winters is one of the highlights — a true desperate housewife, in her leopard print blouse, trying to get humbert squared to cha cha with her. the one disappointing thing about this movie is that sue lyon never actually wears heart-shaped glasses while sucking on a lollipop.
false advertising!
