Why are my teeth so bad?
I have no fucking idea why my teeth are so fucked up. It's really frustrating because I take take of them just like everyone else. Brush, floss, mouthwash all of it.As you can see, I lost my upper right tooth. I'm posting this to rid me of my shame.
My four teeth in front are all veneers I had filled because my two front teeth were crooked. I also have two missing molars on the back of my mouth.
The last few weeks were hell. 3 cavities and gum surgery. Last year I had 2 route canals. One trip I was shot 7 times with a needle filled with novacane. 7.
I have a "flipper" denture for this front tooth but I hope to get a bridge soon.
This is really the embarrassment of my life.
Fuck.

25 Random Things about ME
1. I desperately fear death.
2. I don't understand soup. Is it a food or a liquid. It can't be both
3. If men walked around in lycra superhero outfits I'd probably be a rapist.
4. I don't think babies are cute simply because they're babies
5. There's nothing worse than not being yourself around friends. Which is probably why I don't have many friends.
6. A random smile from a stranger on the street can make me smile for hours.
7. If yoga wasn't so hip or so associated with Santa Monica and Madonna, I'd probably take it.
8. San Francisco is the world's most perfect city but the people can be flawed. Los Angeles is flawed but the people are way more friendly.
9. If I could drive any car in the world other than my jeep...it would still be a Jeep. Just a better one.
10. I drive EXACTLY the speed limit on the freeway. I fear freeways.
11. Our obsession (via MTV) for wealthy little brats and their bullshit drama makes me really upset. Don't talk to me about The Hills or Bromance. I'll start yelling.
12. I have such a deep love for 80's pop band Bananarama, it almost borders on obsessive. No, it IS obsessive.
13. I hate coffee. I drank it only once in my life. I was 13 and my mom gave it to me. I spit it out.
14. I grew up in San Pedro and often drive back a few times a month to "re-charge" creatively. I love Pedro man.
15. I'm very forgetful. Especially peoples names. People take it personally.
16. I wish Gavin Newsom was my lover.
17. My only regret in life is that I dropped out of ballet at 13 because I was scared of what would happen once my friends found out. It still hurts and pisses me off to this day.
18. I remember the greatest kiss I ever had. He was a black guy named Lawrence and he was over 6 feet tall and he works for MUNI in San Francisco.
19. I love cheesy board games. You wanna play, "Bermuda Triangle?", "Voice of the Mummy?" "Mystic Skull?" Anybody? Bueller?
20. I constantly think about walking about in 6 inch spike heels..
21. I consider myself a cynical optimist.
22. I hate the term "my feminine side". Like only women can cry and be nurturing?
23. A good kiss to me is more important than a good blow job.
24. I'm definitely a Mac and NOT a PC. Once you go Mac, you never go back.
25. I hate going to sleep. It means another day has passed. Another step closer to death. But I LOVE mornings. It means another day has started. And another chance to be great.

Hell's playlist at Gold's Gym Hollywood
There are moments at the gym when I'm not wearing my trusty iPod. When I undress in the locker room. When I stretch. And after my workout when I shower, order my protein shake and leave. And in those moments, I am FORCED to listen to the most god-awful torture music that play on the overhead monitors on a constant loop. I'm serious. It's torture. Who chooses these videos? None of them inspire you to workout. Here's the ahem "hit" list.
1. Boys Like Girls- Thunder
Ah! I've heard this fucking song like every day this week. That fake low grumbly tone to that boy band whine "Your eeeeyyyeees was the soundtrack of my summer...". I can't help but hear the producer polish on this song making sure it sounds like every other emo hit out there.
2. Rockstar- Nickelback
Seriously, the dumbest song I've ever heard. Sure, I get the irony. Oh, we just all wanna be big rock stars...but look out! It's not all that it's cracked up to be. Sung by an asshole who IS a rockstar. And he wants a star next to James Dean and Cher? Did he even write this? Gag.
3. Marie Digby- Say it Again
So, THIS is a song for the gym? Really? A little anemic love song about some chick getting all wet because her boyfriend said that he loved her. GAG. I actually watched the bullshit video with the fluffy clouds and crap. Oh, yeah. Listening to this makes me want to bench press ANOTHER SET!
4. Nine Days - Absolutely (Story of a Girl)
Ugh! It's that boy band Emo-whine in full force here. "This is the story of a girl who cried a river and drowned the whole world..." This song is from the 90's or something, right? They play this crap EVERY day. If I was working out with 13 year old girls, this might be okay. But,I work out at the gay porn Golds. Gay men EVERYWHERE. This shit is just inappropriate.
5. New Found Glory- Kiss Me
The official douchebag remake of a song that never needed to be remade. Yuck. As annoying as Spencer Pratt trying to sing.
Okay. Here are some that they actually get RIGHT. I'll stop my bitch fest and give some props to music that actually makes you WANT to work out.
1.Bran Van 3000- Astounded
I haven't heard this song at Gold's in a while BUT I did hear it there FIRST. It's so soulful and perfect it brings serious TEARS to your eyes
2. Basement Jaxx- Romeo
Once again, saw this video at Gold's FIRST. One of my favorite's of all time. Look how perfectly the funk and the Bollywood meld together.
3. Kylie Minogue- Come into my World
Perfection in the gym. You can run for miles on Kylie Energy alone. The video is one of the BEST EVER MADE.
4. Dannii Minogue- You Won't Forget About Me
One good Minogue deserves another. This is a trippy video with a hot house beat. Great for the queens and gym rats alike. Perfection!
5. Chemical Brothers- Galvanize
Another song and video I saw first at Gold's. It really gets your heart rate going. What gym music SHOULD DO. The video kicks ass too!
Okay, maybe it's not ALL bad. But the bad DEFINITELY outweighs the good. I'm keeping my iPod ON.

My Matt McConaughay rant
Okay, what the fuck dude? I now officially hate this guy. This RomCom bullshit has GOT to stop. Is this REALLY what you want? Is making more money in big opening bullshit movies like this and running around with your shirt off REALLY where you want to go? Jennifer Garner I can understand. She's still coming off her Alias hotness. Trying to establish the big budget movie cred by doing the studio RomCom. BUT she also does the action (The Kingdom) and the indie (Juno). YOU on the other hand are turning into a joke. "Wedding Planner"? "Failure To Launch"? "How To Lose A Guy"? "Fool's Gold"? GOGP is your FIFTH FUCKING ROMCOM! Grow a pair! Take a chance! Make out with Sean Penn! Play a ballet dancer! Get a 16 year old girl pregnant and then KILL HER!
Okay, you're handsome. Okay, I would give a nut to have your abs.. I GE T it. Now be an actor and stop selling out. Let's see you fuck up James Franco's shit! I saw Lone Star. I KNOW you can do it!
My second attempt to blog
It's been hard trying to stay focused in LA because I really resent being here. A part of me wants to run away. My sister is moving to Vegas in September. Hey, I can move in with her, get a job at Michael Mina make a couple of grand and move back to SF to STAY...but I know my problems will follow me wherever I go. Another part of me sees this slump as something I EXACTLY needed to focus and preserver.
In a matter of months, in spring my favorite season. My friendship base has dried up. I was nearly fired from my job. I'm getting older. I've hit my ten year mark in my stay in Los Angeles. And my H'Wood connections who I thought were so hot on me have seemed to have lost interest.
But, I won't give up.
Regardless how I feel or how I complain or what trauma I may be going through, (real or exaggerated) the one crystal clear thing I know is that I'm a great writer with sellable scripts that will make money. And that's the mother fucking truth. That is what gets me out of bed. That's what puts me at a job a I can't stand but had to fight to keep.
"Date". Is a hot thriller. "X" will change the face of television. Sigh. I guess I now go through the submission route. Screenplay contests. Queeries to agents and producers. Etc.
Never stop.

I HATE the new season of "Make Me A Supermodel"
Who's this PISSY BITCH?The minute I saw that tool Michael Bergin as a "substitute mentor" I was out. He's a total douche. He doesn't work anymore as a model or actor and the fact that they trotted him out as someone for the male models to "aspire" to be, really made me kind of sick. This guy RAN OVER SOMEBODY.
Anyway, ITA that this season totally sucks. Season 1 felt fresh, fun and exciting. It didn't take itself so seriously. The fashions were totally outlandish and homoerotic. This season is like going to the mortuary.
A few reasons:
1. The fashions are AWFUL. Remember last season's horse fetish line? FUN! Last night's freaky, studs taped to forehead BS. Not so fun.
2. Perou- Are you serious with this guy? People PAY him? He's an absolute moron. I want to ban him to a strip mall Glamor Shots in Scottsdale Arizona for the rest of his miserable life.
3. Nicole Trufino- For like 2 episodes I thought she was attitude/cool/sexy. Now I'm so done. It's like talking to a amazingly beautiful girl at a party for a half hour before your brian kicks in and you realize that this is ALL there is. Then you head for the hors d vores table.
4. The Fashion- I loved how the guys wore tights and no shirt for like every episode last season. And the clothes were at least memorable. This season I can't remember ONE catwalk except for last week's BS Freakshow.
5. The Models- ALL boring. Even the gays. Last year we got Ronnie. This year we get Shawn? Sorry. No. I like the "I'm doing it for my daughter" chick but I'm kinda over her too. I hate how Sandhurst feels that his ballet background (A REAL career. Full grace and beauty) is going to hinder his chances as a model. Please Sandy go back to dancing. PLEASE.
I have a feeling that Jonathan is bi. Have him seduce Branden, now THERE'S a show!
Here's hoping Season 3 brings back what made this show fun to begin with. For the rest of THIS season, I could care less who wins. I'm DONE.

"Deadly Skies"
I recently wrote this to IMDB about a film called "Deadly Skies". The movie was a special cable film directly made for a station called HERE TV. A gay cable station that is known to be making original entertainment for our community.
"Deadly Skies- Absolute Crap"
"Granted, I saw this "Here TV. Special Movie", based on a blip I saw somewhere about Antonio Sabato Jr. having naked sex with a cute guy, but other than that, (Which was un-erotic and poorly shot) this was pretty bad.
Ordinarily, a bad, boring thriller is maybe good for one or two laughs.(Mainly at the actors expense who don't believe a word they are saying)But then life moves on. Some time and money is wasted, but so what, right? Not in this case.
"Here TV" is an event for gays and lesbians everywhere. Having a readily available cable station for us, is a major move forward."Deadly Skies" and "Tides of War"(also pretty bad) are IMPORTANT. These movies, not only are original programming directly for gays and lesbians,on OUR OWN STATION, but reflect to the world what we can do.This movie also wants to be a gay film without being your typical "gay"film. I also think that is important.
SO, WHY IS THIS FILM ABSOLUTE CRAP!!!???!!!
Is this all we're capable of? Boring crappy action movies with one un-erotic homo-sex scene, that seems weirdly out-of-place? I understand the budget is low. I understand it's shot in Canada. And I understand that you can only get Rae Dawn Chong and Antonio Sabato Jr. But what the f***??? Weren't gay men the ones with all the talent that was never given a voice? Now that we have the voice we give the world, "DeadlySkies"???? This is really upsetting. With all the poor, hungry,TALENTED writer/directors in Hollywood that would work for NOTHING.This crap is the best HERE TV can do? To represent us?
"Brokeback Mountain"-is coming out in a few weeks. It's directed by a straight man. Written by a straight man. Stars two straight men. It will be a watershed movie for gays and lesbians everywhere.
"Deadly Skies" will be playing on HERE TV for another month. It was written and directed by gay men. 1. No one will watch it. 2. People who DO watch it will not enjoy it. 3. It will mean NOTHING to the gay and lesbian community.
You don't need a huge budget to make a good movie. Remember, "MyBeautiful Laundrette" was also done for TV. (In England) and was directed by Stephen Frears and starred Daniel Day Lewis (both then unknowns)and made for practically nothing. A landmark gay film. Once again, made by straights.
Depressing."
