  • Reason #1,345,878 Dan has to get out of PR

    Lesson of the day: never believe anything anyone ever tells you, ever. In my spare time, I work as a consultant for a public relations firm in Los Angeles. It’s not my dream job, but I continue to do it on the contingency that the head of the company leave a burlap sack with a…

  • pre-production

    We have spent the past week in pre-production at the Oxygen show. Pre-production means the producers are planning out the shooting schedule, while we rewrite the script over and over again until it satisfies the network, the budget and the cast (in that order). This is when it gets more intense, and a bit frustrating.…

  • We found a copy of

    We found a copy of Wai Lana’s Yoga Sound CD here at the Oxygen office today. Stacey and I freaked out Johanna with our vast knowledge of this unique little woman. View half an hour of addictively creepy right here. Move over, Wendy. There’s a new recipe card queen in town. Do you think apple…

  • i need more sleep

    The only thing people hate to read more than a list of what someone did all day is a description of her dream last night, but suck it. Stee and I were sitting on the floor watching CNN and it said “WAR attacks!” We were watching people flee Atlanta, and there were planes bombing. Buildings…

  • potholes in my lawn

    We are on the porch, working, enjoying both the view and a very rare quiet moment. I’m taking a break to update you on Skunk Watch 2004. We have motion-sensor lights in front, so we left those on last night. I also sprinkled enough cayenne pepper on my front lawn to turn those grubs into…

  • Fantastic.

    Last night we had our first real gathering at our house, followed by our first houseguest. This morning required a trip to Albertsons to purchase donuts and a plunger. Hi, I’m officially a homeowner.
