Chelsea Handler is on Lately

This chick from New Jersey that was raised Jewish (although her mom is mormon), is on nightly on the E channel. It makes me laugh. Why?
1) No one is safe: She cracks on mexicans, gays, jews, lesbians, midgets, etc, etc.
2) She has a mexican midget as her assistant.
3) Just witty as hell.
4) It is only 30 minutes long. Get your funnies and get out.


Her book is a MUST READ:
I first heard of her and her show because of my dad. He said she was funny. I gave it a try, but I didn't like her abrasiveness at first. Then, J-Mo gave me this book a ways back, and I was totally laughing so hard. About half way through the book, I realized it was the same Chelsea from the show.  So, I gave the show another chance, and now I can't stop.

Yes I Go To Prom Every Year

Since I coordinate prom and thus, have to be there every year, I might as well put up some pictures:

This year's theme was Vegas baby. I booked us in downtown Dallas at the Hyatt. There were 530 people seated for dinner. I think it was a success. The picture below is of a group of us adults with "Elvis." The kids didn't realize this guys didn't look a darned thing like Elvis.

I'm smiling really hard because 1)I'm bending my knees so Jeff could look taller than me; 2)This night is half way over and 3)I know I get to sleep peacefully in a hotel room after the event.

p.s. Christy and Lisa, I missed having a planning partner for prom. It was a lonely road alone this year. But, I guess it was time for me to leave the nest and fly.

This Diet Thing

So, it pretty much consumes my life. No wonder women have been driving me crazy with diet talk for the last 20 years of my life. I'm annoying to myself! Tonight I got out with some friends and ate fried pickles and drank WATER.  Then, when I got home I obsessed until I could figure out how many calories were in those damned little tumbleweeds.  By the way, there weren't as many as I feared.  

And, as for my "all-caps-yelling" water above: I have concluded that I can't drink alcohol anymore because there are too many calories in it no matter how you pour it. In short, I'd rather eat my calories than drink them.

Somebody shoot me: I'm blogging about dieting.

Maybe I should go back to drinking.
