Flames on the Sides of My Face

Click on the pic to see Madeline in action
"Flames on the side of my face...." yes Madeline as Mrs. White. Incredible.



"My tits are falling off!" Empress from Complete History of the World





"Taffeta Darling" Unforgettable in Young Frankenstein





"I'm not a rabbit, I need some rest." Blazing Saddles






I LOVE MADELINE KAHN. Love is actually not a strong enough word for how I feel about her. She was a brilliant actress and an incredible triple threat. She took amazing risks and could make me laugh with just a look. Madeline passed away in 1999 with ovarian cancer and I remember genuinely crying when I heard. Madeline Kahn's brother and husband put a bench in New York City's Central Park that said "In Loving Memory of Madeline Kahn (1942-1999) A BRILLIANT ACTRESS AND LOVELY SOUL WHO LOVED THIS CITY AND THIS PARK."

My Idea of Romance


So I was on the phone the other day talking to some customer service person and Colton was in the living room next to me playing his guitar when the lady on the phone said "Is someone playing the guitar for you?" Her question took me by surprise so after I thought about it for a second I said..."Yes. That's my husband. Our house always sounds like this." She told me I was very lucky and then helped me with whatever I was calling her about. I thought about this after I hung up and realized that she was right. Of course I know I'm lucky but I take for granted the fact that our house is always filled with music and that I can look over the dining room table and watch my best friend play music and make fun of me all at the same time. He worries that I get tired of hearing him practice or that I would like some peace and quiet but I wouldn't have it any other way.

So much to do!!!!!!







AHHHHHH!!!!! So....I graduated from school on Friday and that's awesome but I am now drowning in my "TO DO" list. We are moving in 2 weeks and I am studying for my boards so I am stupid busy! My new apartment has a huge bathroom and a claw foot tub! I'm very excited about this. I have long dreamt of lounging in a claw foot tub while typing scathing news articles condemning modern politics while I smoke a cigarette and listen to the gramophone sitting dangerously on the table by the sink. If I never get to fulfill any other dreams I'll be pretty satisfied with this bathtub. Anyway, I'll be sure to post pics of my new place when I move in. In the mean time enjoy Ms. Paulette Goddard in a bath tub and Mr. Clifton Webb as Waldo Lydecker in one of my favorite movies "Laura" .
