Que Sera Sara

Okay, so I just read a story that said that Lindsbian’s little sister, Ali, called rumors of her big sis’s lesbionic ways “ridiculous.”

The family is always the last to know! Adorable!

How much do I love the fact that Lindsay Lohan is ALLEGEDLY totally in gay love with a woman (DJ Samantha Ronson)? So so so much. Not in an ironic way, either. I can’t get enough of the LiLo. Unlike Britney, LiLo’s not going to deliberately or inadvertantly off herself. The girl’s a fucking spitfire and a half, and she’s bursting with life and ‘tude and Sapphic aggression. She’s not going away, and if you look at her woman, she will fuck you UP.

I mean, anyone who shouts “Get your 15-year-old Full House ass away from my girlfriend!” at ASHLEY OLSEN is fucking amazing in my book.

Blogger Sarah Goodyear did the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund (and me) a solid when she linked to our Neil Gaiman PSA on YouTube. Hooray! Spreadin’ the word!

I love WordPress because they give you all these juicy stats about how people are getting to your blog. Here, without further comment, I would like to present the most amazing and insane collection of words ever used by someone who eventually clicked through to my blog:

“awesome black human names”

I am a bad actress, but you get to see me hump a dude (except I have a ween, apparently) so there’s that.

I GET TO BE BLAIR!!!

I produce and host a comedy show in a wee, warm, sweet little space called Ochi’s Lounge, which is the downstairs space at Comix. And tonight is gonna be one dooze of a show ’cause one of my new favorite comics is performing! It’s not that he is “new” to comedy; it’s just that I’d never seen him perform prior to a couple of months ago, when he rocked my face off.

So he is new to me, but kind of a big deal to other people. He has been on Colbert, Conan (not the men; their shows) and other crazy shows! Wow!

Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Mr. Rob Lathan!

…who has an M.S., an M.B.A., and a Ph.D.

I looked at his bidness card, cause we was doin’ bidness, and said, “Ooh, looks like you don’t have enough degrees. I don’t know if I can keep this in my wallet.”

And then he told me he has an M.D., but he doesn’t put it on his card because he ran out of space.

And also? He speaks three languages.

I feel empty inside.

There are currently two pairs of letters that go after the Sara Benincasa name on a resume, and one of those pairs will cost me nearly $500 a month for the rest of my existence.

Pitchfork linked to Francesco “Ces” Marciuliano’s blog.

The reason is that he writes “Sally Forth,” which is a comic strip, and today “Sally Forth” mentions Vampire Weekend, which is a band.

Ces was a member of the elite and now-famous Ultimate Gossip Girl Panel, a panel that also included comedians Jen Kwok, Diana Saez, Jiwon Li, Jon Friedman, Heather Fink, and superstaaaaar bloggah Richard Lawson of Gawker.com, and ALSO my beloved Rya Backer of MTV News.com.

He also wrote the web comic Medium Large. He writes for the PBS show “Seemore’s Playhouse,” which won two Emmys for a script he wrote.

He is my cohabitational partner. We buy shit from IKEA together. I take care of his cat when he is not around. He is better at cleaning than I am sometimes. He is good at laundry. He knows you shouldn’t put EVERYTHING in the dryer. He does not shrink clothes.

He’s pretty rad, I think.

Including “nontraditional” (read: GLARINGLY INCORRECT) punctuation and spelling in the name of your organization is no longer allowed. Having a [ or a + in your agency’s name does not make you hip, interesting, or more attractive to potential clients. It makes you annoying, especially to journalists.

Thank you.

That will be all on this subject.

Diana Saez and I have a brand-spankin’-new Ultimate Gossip Girl Blog. Seek it out for criticism, witticisms, and exorcisms of our rage when the show falls as disgustingly short of the mark as it did on Monday.

Thank you. That is all for now.

Oh, look at this.

I pretty much died of joy after this. Not even geek joy. Just like, regular life joy. Nonspecific in its hugeness.

First Colleen Doran linked to me (I’m still editing her PSA! She’s very swift and smart and good!) and that was like, “Whoa.”

And now this? Really? My favorite author.

I immediately IM’d my friend Nate and was like, “AAAAAUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGHHHHHH!” and Nate kindly dealt with my insanity.

I’m pretty much dead, due to all the happiness right now.

In the words of South Park, “Dead, dead, dead, soon we’ll all be dead, dead dead dead, one day we’ll all be dead.”

Hooray!
