I’ve got an appointment with Destiny.

Today is Thursday, which is the day before my interview with the Famous Person (who, btw, may or may not have a large gay following so I think it’s important to note that despite my previous battles with the word police, I LOVE THE GAYS, just FYI) and as foretold, I am eyeing the oven with a concentrated sort of resignation. I would be dangling my head over the toilet bowl but I haven’t cleaned it in a few days and I have germ fears.

Anyway, I’m just going to do whatever I can to prepare myself for a well organized interview and then drink the shame away later that evening when we go out to dinner at the Malay Satay Hut. I’m not kidding - that’s what it’s called. And I love satay so a whole hut filled with it is exciting for me. Which brings me to my point (ish)…yesterday I went to lunch at Pok Pok with Melissa and Alison and it was so nice to talk to smart girls about smart things like Blog Fodder and writing for The New York Times and also to talk about not smart things like boys and sweaters and being naked in public. And then Dane and I went out to dinner with friends at DF and we talked about Wikipedia redtape falderal and my enchiladas were delicious and the service was excellent. I think at one point the owner came over, wiped my mouth with a napkin, and then gave me a stimulating scalp massage for the remainder of our meal. Is that normal?

I’m still not getting to the point. THE POINT IS, we have been out for every single meal this week for one reason or another which was really, really fun, but I have yet to watch The Hills with a glass of wine in one hand, a taco in the other, and about four cups of salsa dribbled all over myself and the cat and the couch and that is what we’re doing tonight so if anyone or anything tries to come between me and those circumstances, I will bite it’s face off like a mother bear protecting her cubs.

I feel pretty confident that Christian Bale has a large gay following. So, it’s him, right?

Can you tell him that I’m still waiting for a response to my fan letter from December 1994? And that I’m sorry I told him he was “my second favorite actor,” but that I’m TOTALLY OVER Ethan Hawke now that he’s gone through The Change. So he’s back to number one! Especially since I Netflixed Equilibrium.

But only if you can work it in.

I really hope its famous screenwriter Ernie Cline who just sold another script …

Ha! Please do you really think Erik would let that chance slip through his hands? No way. He’s too smart for that.

Oh, and Jenny - I LOVED Equilibrium.

But not as much as Swing Kids.

Remember yesterday when I said I was hungover? Well, it turns out I was actually ill. Great.

Maybe you should start drinking the shame away prior to the interview. Just an idea.

Don’t be nervous, Kiala. In my experience, the only difference between famous people and people like you and me is they’re more powerful and more judgmental. And they can smell fear, which annoys them.

Aww crap… it didn’t finish my joke.

It was going to be a stripper joke. Destiny. Get it?

I’m going to go be not funny over here now.

That Stephanie Pratt is up to NO GOOD. I can see it in her bangs.

Every meal out for a week? Goddamn, moneybags.

Good luck with the interview, although by now you may have already done it. So I hope it went well.
