Happy Valentine's Day

Vince wanted to give me something different this year so he had an edible arrangement made from fruit and veggies grown from Jimmy's garden.  Sweet!

Gridley Trail in Ojai

Nothing better then spending the day with loved ones in a beautiful setting.  Ojai fits that description to a T.
The weatherman said it was going to rain but instead we got sunshine and blue skies.  I even got a little sunburned.

TECH ART II AT AMPAS

Just in time for this year's Oscar Nominated Movie screenings, Vince's Tech Art II show has gone on exhibit in the lobby of the Academy's Linwood Dunn theatre.

We were there the day they were hanging the photographs so I took a couple of snapshots on V's phone.  They're kind of grainy but you'll get the picture :)

Golden Globes 2012

Vince was one of the HBO after-party photographers for the Golden Globes.

The Check Is In The Mail

My first check from the sale of Wham Glam Thank You Ma'am!  I'd like to add a bunch of zero's after the amount but hey, it's a start.  :)
I love that complete strangers bought my story.  Thank you Skylight Bookstore for your support of local writers. I'm proud to live in Los Feliz where we actually have a thriving community bookstore and people who still read.

My Name Is Prince and I am funky

My name is Prince the one and only....


My uncle Bob's newest edition to the family, "Prince"

Fort Tejon

How many times have you passed the sign on the 5 Freeway for Fort Tejon?  We decided to go there today.  We had fun exploring the old fort and the hike in to the canyon behind the fort was even better.  We saw tons of deer and birds.  It was a lovely way to spend my birthday.

MOM'S EPISODE

HERE'S THE FIRST EPISODE THAT I DIRECTED FOR DATING AFTER DIVORCE:

Christmas

Christmas morning.  TIme to finally open presents!

Vince trying on his new coat.  I think it fits him well.

December 26th - The day I try to work off the past few days of indulgences by hiking up Mt. Hollywood.  But then we went to the yogurt shop after our hike...

Vince and I had a lovely Christmas with his family.  When we got home we rested for a while and then went to our neighbors house and wine and champagne tasted until midnight.  What a great day!


And then Zuri let us sleep in until 8:00 a.m.!  We are blessed :) xoxoxox

Santa's Little Helpers

Days after our doggy photo shoot I'm still laughing about how cute these little creature are.  

He looks like he had one too many drinks in this photo...

Matt's Christmas Card :)

I know his parents are going to get shit for these pictures but I thought they were hilarious.

No Matt!  No smoking!!

Santa Pix at Doggy Styles

There's nothing better then volunteering for a good cause, raising $650 for the Friends of Animals foundation and spending the entire day smiling and laughing so much that my face hurt.


Our last contributor of the day was our dear Nancy Sullivan. I think Santa needed that swig of Jagermeister  after a day of posing with the pups.

Thanksgiving 11/24/11

It's a long drive to Lompoc to visit my mom but I sure perked up playing with Pom Pom, the cutest thing ever.

She especially liked Vince.  

With My Stooges

I love Three Stooges Day at the Alex Theatre.  Thanks Curt for starting such a great tradition.
We usually have lunch at Don Cuco's before the show but sadly the restaurant closed so we needed a new location.  This time we watched the Stooges then walked to the wonderfully tacky Hawaiian themed Damons for dinner and drinks.  So fun.  I had a Chi Chi!

Silverlake Art Collective

We enjoyed some excellent art at the Silverlake Arts Collective show last night.  What a great group of artists!  I'm not always the biggest sculpture fan but this artist was awe inspiring.  He put this big 'ol smile on my face.

And who doesn't love political art?  Can you name the three people in this piece?

One of my favorite artists, Rebecca Pollack, was showing her photography, block prints and etchings.  Can you get any more talented?  This woman has it going on!

Homecoming Prom

Our lovely niece Cecelia with her girlfriends.  I saw a lot of moms and dads tearing up as they watched their kids get on the party bus that would take them to the prom.

With her proud mama and handsome date...

There was this large stairwell that was perfect for photographs.

CC and uncle Vince

Dating After Divorce - part II

Day two of shooting the "Moms" episode.
(Love that crazy face on the wall and Nile in the reflection but not in the forefront of the pix)

One of the best things about our crew is that it's very ethnically and gender diversified.  We're helping skew the horrible record that Hollywood has of using only white men! 
(Sorry white guys but others like to be creative and work too!)

This is John Silver, he is one of the funniest guys I've ever worked with.  Someone give him his own show!

Elena Talon, Lynne Stewart, Annette Westwood and Jody Jaress.

Kiran Turns 30!

At The London for Kiran's classy 30th birthday party.  Vince made this poster.  Not sure if you can tell but she has a golf club in her hand and she just smashed her birthday cake.  Glad I didn't have to clean up after that :)
