Jessica Simpson today said that, because John Mayer told Playboy that she was “sexual napalm” she feels like men are undressing her with their eyes now when she walks in a room.
Yeah, Jess. That’s his fault.
It’s official. I am no longer a PC. YAY!
From a musical sendoff to the Hummer brand (set to the melody of Bob Dylan’s Masters of War:
And I hope that you die
And your death’ll come soon
I will follow the wrecker
In the pale afternoon
And I’ll watch while you’re winched
Onto the flatbed
And I’ll stomp on your tailpipe

I became an aunt for the first time at the age of 7. I now have a total of 5 nieces and nephews and 3 great-nephews and nieces.
I would like to stress, I am only 29.
DON’T: Pay attention to which team’s mascot would win in a fight. I like a Grizzly Bear in a death match against pretty much anything. But I don’t like the Montana Grizzlies against the New Mexico Lobos or the Oakland Grizzlies against the Pittsburgh Panthers.
Whaaa? Shoot. I have to find a new strategy.
-Reworking my resume for a part time job I really, really want.
-Filling out my NCAA bracket
-Uh, tumblr. Obvs.
-Watching the tracking on my new computer, which is finally IN Sacramento.
-Enjoying a nice cup of hot tea
-Listening to The Temper Trap, because I have a slight obsessive thing happening.

Director Floria Sigismondi, Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning and Joan Jett at the afterparty for the LA premiere of The Runaways last night
Kristen Stewart knew she was going to be in public, right? It wasn’t like someone ambushed her and drug her out of her house unwillingly?

Well, yeah, so far that’s my favorite thing of the day
Last night I finally watched The September Issue, which, I will admit, made me love Anna Wintour even more than I had before.
Say what you want about her, and really, what hasn’t been said before…but the woman is amazing. A bitch, obviously, but amazing not in-spite of that, but more-so because of it. What other woman on the planet has as much influence over a single industry as Anna has over fashion (Oprah, I suppose and her influence over the sheep of America, but that’s a whole different thing). To watch people cower in her presence, to watch her decide what designers will make it, or “suggest” what their next line should be was just overwhelmingly impressive to me.
The movie does little to dispel the image that Lauren Weisberger put forth in her thinly veiled “The Devil Wears Prada,” but I for one was happy about that. I get tired of the notion that women always have to coddle kittens and placate other people’s feelings…and maybe that’s just because I’m a pretty big bitch myself. In a man’s world…in “men’s industries” the traits that are abhorred on women are respected. Anna Wintour got where she is not by being the nicest person, but by being the best.
I’m pretty sure I am in awe of her.
