Happy New Year from the eastern standard time zone!

I'm so close to Niagara Falls! Feel like driving there...

No more out-of-state travel for the rest of the year? Famous last words! Bound for upstate NY in an hour.

I come by it honestly... with Grandmother and Mama Joule ;-) http://ow.ly/i/ovUt

My greatest concern tonight has been coordinating Glamazon potty breaks. La vie glam crazy!

Having a talk with my hair about the wonders of the color red!

Liquid liner and lash application time is sacred. No matter how late you're running, it's always worth it to do these things carefully!

Burlesque acts are like pairs of shoes: you don't see how many you have till they start crowding you out, & yet you really NEED all of 'em!

What's cooler than cool? Lomography! Coco Lectric and I are making a special appearance TONIGHT at this grand opening: http://ow.ly/7QUYO

It's nice to see the leaves here changing color due to the cold, not due to drought killing them.

In San Antonio at the same event as Huey Lewis & the News- now THAT's the power of love!

Oh, I adore the moon when she's showing just a sliver. Like a teasing Cheshire cat's smile in the sky...

I love to see how other actresses handle playing Marilyn. Williams did a great job.

Hoping for some Marilynspiration in "My Week With Marilyn"...

At my cousin's brewery in Fredericksburg. Pre-prohibition era recipe, & HUGE tanks!
