I was taking my normal break (read goofing off) and reading the NYT. I came across the article below. Really that's news? I'm kinda speechless.

Slingshot wrong way to get girlfriend's attention

SOUTH OGDEN, Utah (AP) -- An 11-year-old boy who wanted to get his girlfriend's attention without waking her parents got a lesson in the strength of a window pane. A pebble fired from a slingshot has more velocity than a pebble tossed by hand.
''We were just trying to get her attention,'' said Joe Brunton, who is now doing odd jobs around his neighborhood to raise the money he needs to replace the window.
Joe and a friend were trying to see the girl early one morning a few weeks ago. At first, they threw wood chips at the window, but that wasn't enough, so the boys went home for heavier artillery. The slingshot worked in getting the girl's attention, but it also cracked the window.
The boys immediately owned up to the broken window and promised the girl's parents that they would replace it.
Joe went to his mother, who covered the $160 replacement cost but said the boy was going to have to do extra chores. Joe's friend Justice Kane decided that was going to take too long, so they have been going door to door and asking neighbors if they need any household chores done.
They also explained why they are raising the money.
''It was kind of embarrassing,'' Joe said.

That's what the dude I'm dating (my boyfriend? I'm not sure really how to refer to him) said I was last night.

It was insulting and awesome all at the same time.

Exactly what I like in a man.

All the gays are tying the knot. Marc Jacobs just got hitched. I'm happy for him but sad that he'll no longer be a swinging single dude. He always used to be in the tabloids for dating escorts and having threesomes. He even had an obsessed ex.

Now that he's spoke for will the scandals end? For my sake I hope not.

Fitflops are all the rage now in NYC. I've know about them for a while because they advertise them in the Bliss catalogue and I'm always like "Really for $115 does anyone think these flip flops will really get them in shape? What happened to a stairmaster?"

Then I saw these advertised on the subway and I threw up in my mouth a little thinking "For the love of god- No."



And then I saw this picture and a little piece of me died. Why Julianne? Why? I know you starve yourself and live off of granola bars (http://perezhilton.com/2008-01-29-juliane-moore-starving-herself). But now this?

So I just read in Gawker www.gawker.com that Simon Doonan and Jonathan Adler are getting married!!! It's like the two gayest designers are now joining forces to be one fierce uber designer. Wow. I totes want to go to that wedding.

• For those not in the know:

Simon Doonan does the Barneys Windows and is world renowned for his amazing window designs.

Jonathan Adler does home furnishings and sculpture. I have one of his orginal pieces (it's really ugly). Oh, he was also on Bravo as a Judge for some show and you know I'm a sucker for crap like that.
