Shirley She’s Over It

June 22, 2011 in Law Of Attraction, Life & Style with 0 Comments

I’ve read many of Shirley MacLaine’s books, from an early age, like in high school when I sat up in a tree devouring Out On A Limb.

I felt kindred to her spirit and I’ve always appreciated her bold foray into the metaphysical – especially for doing it publicly, long before it was more commonly acceptable, and despite her movie star status. I love her salty style and big talent.

So I’m triple-loving her newest memoir, I’m Over All That, in which MacLaine shares her perspective, looking through a lens of done-ness in the third act of her life. Shirley is over many things, including politics, events she should attend in order to be seen, red carpet madness, worry, parties, scheming for roles, and what other people think.

I like her stance (a lot) of being over things we make too much of a hairy deal about. Â I notice a lot of people growing old reach this place of arrival, but I like that at mid-life I’m arriving at a similar stance of my own; better earlier so to enjoy the delicious freedoms that come with it.

When we need the world around us to be a certain way, the degree to which it mortifies us that it isn’t is the degree to which we are not keeping up with the expansion of all that is, including the expansion of ourselves.

And that I am very over.

The Beauty Of This Season Is Overwhelming In The Very Best Of Ways.

Happy Friday! Heading out of town in 90 minutes – here’s what I’m loving as we head into the weekend!

My life is bananas. Pandemonium. Mayhem. Flying at the speed of light. Â And I am loving it all – no two moments ever the same, intensely stimulating, barely time to flush. Â I appreciate, I appreciate, I appreciate, because that, to me, is LIVING.

Stagette Weekend! Â My bridesmaid Erin is hosting myself and all my other bridesmaids at ~~Southfork~~ her cottage in The Kawarthas and it’s a real treat to have these key people in my life at the same place in the same time (of course, a couple of people cannot join, hence the real treat that Erin has managed to wrangle those who are coming. Â Best engagement EVER! Continue Reading…

Something Better Than You Are Today

Last spring I spoke at York University and I met a lovely young gay man who was so amazing that when I got to my former radio show that afternoon I was inspired to say the following:

Here is the Music Player. You need to installl flash player to show this cool thing!

Since then, Phil’s become a star on the MTV hit, 1Girl5Gays and when he’s not doing that he’s mine and Eddie’s new assistant.Â He joined the rest of the team this past weekend on our company retreat in Prince Edward County; the more the merrier.Â At the end of Saturday’s session, we all piled into cabs to attend a party we’d been invited to by a friend of one of our team.Â Stunning cottage, multiple decks, on a lake, incredible food, good company.

And, apparenty, awesome hidden talent.

Because while Phil is obviously an original, it was in this setting that I and everyone else at the party discovered he also knew every lyric to every song Madonna or Cher has ever sung. Like a savant.

That cat out of the bag, Phil was more than happy to stand before a growing crowd of beaming admirers and belt them out on-demand.Â He impersonates both icons brilliantly (the lesbians were peeing themselves over his Cher), so you got dialogue from movies, interviews, speeches and videos thrown in, and when someone in the crowd would call out a request, like, ‘Now do ‘Vogue’!', Phil would need a little more information: ‘Which year? Which performance?’, then going on to re-create ‘Vogue’ from Madonna’s Re-Invention tour, if that was what was requested.

In other words, it seems like within a year Phil has become a bigger and better version of the kid I met at York U that day.Â I’m so appreciating his bright light, shiny happy personality, and having him as part of our team.

My Cousin Graydon Is On Department Store Ads. Never Mind Graduating College, Thank God Someone In The Family Is Finally A Model.

Let’s get to it, strike a post, there’s nothing to it. Here’s my end-o-week LOVE List:

I haven’t been able to post daily lately like I usually do because at SPM we’ve been working on something to introduce to you that is going to make you go bananas if you love music.Â Watch this space or visit any of the other SPM websites next week for the 411.Â Meanwhile, to celebrate something I know everyone will love, here’s a video of a little leading-edge boy named Robert Jeffery, vogueing to Madonna‘s Vogue in 1991.Â He’s posted it to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of my idol’s Truth Or Dare.Â Thanks to my pal Joe Armenia in San Francisco for the share:

Lesbian sex. Apparently it’s fabulous.Â According to my fiance, anyway.Â Because his side of the bed faces into the bedroom of the woman next door, a lady who likes other women using a strap-on on her with vigorous force.Â Lesbian sex, I’ve learned from Eddie, is enough to wake a sleeping porn star, while I continue to – as I always suspected was true of me – sleep through anything to do with la vagine.Â Lesbian sex goes ONANDON, Eddie has informed me, two mornings so far this week over our morning espressos. Go lesbians! Continue Reading…
