Dear Kate,
Just like I did on the eve before Lilo's court sentencing, I would like to take the opportunity to predict what will happen with the once happy Arquette family. This is hard for me to talk about but I will summon the courage, because it must be addressed.
They will get back together and here's why:
1. Their wedding rings say "A deal's a deal" so nuff said.
2. His sister separated from her husband of quite a few years, and they worked it out (never mind that it only lasted a few years before they separated again, got back together, separated and then finally divorced). I think they will work it out.
3. They have been somewhat vocal about their marriage issues and having sought out counseling in the past. With some help, they can work through this.
I can see them separating for a few months, but I would see a change by spring. They will be spotted out being a supportive family around the holidays, a few quite dinners here and there, and then finally he will be spotted moving back into the house.
I have faith that they will be a-ok. They have to be otherwise who else will stay married in Hollywood?

A Moment of Reflection
Dear Kate,
I have reflected on this year these past few days and below are some things that I have learned, and in no particular order...
10. Blogging is a lot of work
9. Marrying a Kardashian can help a team win a national title.
8. Every one deserves forgiveness. Even those who have done you wrong. That's right I'm talking to you, Jessica Simpson.
7. Don't mix wine, beer and margaritas together. You'll be hurting the next day. And Carribe punch. That keeps you hurting.
6. Don't fly to Vegas or is it US Airways? Either way, it's gonna be a rough flight to and from.
5. When giving out a fake number, don't give out your home number
4. People from New Jersey are crazy. Although I can't hate because I will marry Albie Manzo.
3. Jay-Z is my hero and Maroon 5 should win Grammy's
2. Mark Zuckerburg...kind of an ass.
1. Working sucks
Actually that last one is pretty true so it's the number one for sure.
toodles!

A Birthday Surprise
Dear Kate,
Every morning, when I would go to work, I heard the radio DJs (our faves, Sarah and Vinnie) call people's names and tell them that they have 10 minutes to call and get $500. Finally I had enough. I could totally be one of those people. So, when I got back from Tahoe, Labor Day weekend, I signed up and thought, ok this could be something I never win.
Every day I would be in the car in time to hear the 8:10 name be called (because how sweet would it be to have my favorite morning show, Sarah and Vinnie, announce my name on air!!) and every day for the past month, they would call someone else's name. Today I thought, it would be excellent if they called my name, but highly doubted it! I made sure I was in the car at 8:10 and damn the woman from Milpitas who took my money. Damn! But then it went out of my head because I was so excited that it was my birthday.
Then it became something that I didn't think about and at noon I sat down with Betsy to go over a new project for a client. She's giving me details, I'm taking notes, the usual! Then Mary's husband calls her cell phone and tells her that they just called my name! WHAT? WHEN? NOW? WHAT'S THE PHONE NUMBER! IS THIS A JOKE? were just some off the things that I blurted out when I was running around trying to calm myself and be able to form a sentence.
Finally I got the number and called in and talked to a lovely woman in the promotions department and she asked me a bunch of questions and then chatted me up a bit so she could get a sound bite!! She told me I didn't sound too excited, but I told her that it was my birthday and that I couldn't believe it!
As soon as the interrogation sesh was over--actually I shouldn't call it that because it's my money now-- they played my sound bite (that's right, I'm practically famous now) and I had to tell people about my SWEET present and spread the word that they should enter!!
What are the odds of that happening? And on my birthday? Maybe I should stop singing it's praises until I get my money? Yeah that's a good idea!!
Ok, don't sign up until I see the cash!

Kudos and Boos
Dear Kate,
It's been a while since we've had some kudos and boos so let's get this rolling...
Kudos...Britney Spears. After this week's episode of Glee, the pop star is on top of her game. Not only was the audience reminded of her sa-weet jams, Stronger anyone?, but she was a guest star! She was on camera probably for a total of 1.5 minutes, but she did well! In real life, she's consistently on Star Tracks on people.com, on the cover of Us Magazine, and everyone's talking about her. Good work Brit!
Boos...Michael Lohan. Why are you still popping up in the news? Your daughter is in rehab and out of the public eye so you should be too.
Kudos... Miley Cyrus. Last week she was spotted at a 21 and over night club. Yet, there was strictly no alcohol around her. Good for her! She knows she's under age (almost 18 though) and she didn't try to get any booze at the club. The public is shocked that she was there, but she already told us that she can't be tamed people! And she was not even drinking, unlike other pop stars we know. Ahem, Lindsay.
Boos...this election. I hate the commercials on the radio and TV about how the other person shouldn't even be allowed to be a human! Man they just get so mean with each other. It's a good thing we are officially 30 days from the end!
Kudos...the SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS! Yeah ya boys. I think that it has everything to do with me going to that one game this season. They won then and they won this weekend. Coincidence? I think not.
Boos...Weekends are just getting shorter and shorter. It always seems like the minute you think you are home free on Friday, the next thing you know it's Sunday night and you are watching Desperate Housewives! I think we should pursue these "3-day" weekends every weekend!!
ok that's all for now, gotta get back to work!

Isn't a Judge supposed to Judge
Dear Kate,
As you know, I'm not a Dancing regular. I am intrigued by the stars dedication to the show, their talent and the media hype surrounding it on a regular basis. However, I did see the Michael Bolton incident of 2010. After performing a lackluster jive--maybe some other dance--I have no idea, the judge told him that it was the worst *insert dance here* in their 11 seasons (and btws 11 seasons is mind blowing, they must crank this show out like Happy Meal toys). Now everyone is on Bruno Tonioli because he was too harsh.
Let me ask you Kate, was anyone on Simon Cowell's case when he was mean on American Idol? Was anyone asking him to do some soul searching? No. Why? Because he's a judge. It's a competition. Michael Bolton knew that when he signed up. And he knew the process, because like I said, there have been 11 seasons! Is it just that Michael expecting some star treatment? But if I got up here and danced, then I am sure that the judges would, well let's be honest they would praise my dance moves, but for this blog post's sake, let's say I was having an off day. They would probably oh I don't know, judge me and critique me.
They are supposed to tell you that you stink if you do. They are supposed to praise you if you are good. They are supposed to comment on your performance. The 8 year olds who watch the show could tell you that.
Didn't anyone ever tell him, there's no crying in Dancing with the Stars?
