I have a complaint here...

When I went to the Martha Stewart show all I got was a copy of her body and soul magazine... the last few days she's given out good stuff. On Monday she gave her audience a roaster pan from her Martha Stewart collection at Macy's and then today she gave away gift certificates for a monogrammed lingerie bag. What's the deal?

It's all about Martha (yet again).

Look, there I am in the bottom left of my television screen - next to Lucy



Here's Martha talking about transplanting perenials.



Brad Garret decided to share his cinnamon stick with the cameraman.



He donned onion goggles..



That girl in the upper right actually works for Martha. Someone had to use the restroom so she was a seat filler.



This is what the lamb tangeen (did I spell that right?) looked like.



You can see a third of my face on the right side, second row up...



This is a reproduction of the magazine Justin gave me as I left...



Look it's me again... I was wearing a bright colored top but it was cold so I had to wear my coat.



This is Alisa, she is friends with Lucy who sat next to me. They didn't get to sit together because they both asked questions to Dr. Brent. Her top is really nice.



This is a closeup of Lucy... I think she was lamenting the fact that Dr. Brent said that she shouldn't drink alcohol before bed... she was very nice.



Martha and Dr. Brent talk about the new wellness center at Mt. Sinai Medical Center..



The end.

Remember to Watch Martha Today...

you just might get a chance to see me!

I'm off to the Today show now... be sure to check in to I Heart Ann later on for all the exciting action that takes place today.

That's Ms. Cranky Pants to you!

My mood has turned today... I don't really want to work, I don't want to go out... I can't blame it on PMS... maybe I should just take a nap.

Maybe it's the post Martha letdown. She was on the Today show this morning. Almost as stoic as yesterday...

I've put the Go Go's on iTunes... maybe that will help. Maybe I'll gather enough energy to get out and about.... I did manage to go swimming... it was fine - except I have some excess back skin that is not always attractive... but I can live with it.

I should update I heart Ann before it's too late.

Martha, Martha, Martha!

I think I'll just do a photo montage for you with a few anecdotal remarks..







I stood in line...



This is what I wore...



They let us into the waiting area





I used the restroom...











They gave us cookies (Yes, I washed my hands and I counted the points...)







I had my ticket...



I waited....



Then I was escorted into the studio..



This was my seat... (excuse the grin... I was having a cookie high...)



This is Martha's set



And this is Martha...



This is Justin.. he works for Martha...



He handed me my copy of Body and Soul as I left...

I also received a silicone brush from Joey - the audience wrangler...

The show will air THIS FRIDAY THE 21ST!

Brad Garrett is on the show - I don't want to ruin anything for you so I won't go into details now.

Look for me in the second row center, I sat next to Lucy who asks the first question in the stress and food segment...

Off to Martha...

I'm going to go to the taping of the Martha Stewart Show this afternoon. I will post photos later (and I will update I heart Ann as well). I just have one thing to say... James Blunt is HOT!

Back to Martha, either I'll learn how to pickle vegetables or I'll get to see Barry Manilow again... (I'm hoping for Barry!).

Back later!

Don't ask me what I'm doing up right now...

I don't know myself. After a good four hours sleep I find myself up... maybe it's because Maria is leaving this morning and I am a nervous nellie and don't want her to miss her plane. Yesterday I helped her vote on different outfits to take to Peru and Bolivia..

Considering I am fasionally challenged I don't know what sort of help I was.

Thanks to Jefferson I have a good recipe for Pesto and I made some last night. It was yummy.

Over all I think yesterday was one of my best yet in New York. I went to my ww meeting and got a bunch of good ideas. I found out about the New York city recreation centers. There are a bunch around town that you can join for cheap... they have gyms, pools aerobic classes etc... I went down to my local one (about a 15 minute walk) and signed myself up. Otto helped me... he was very friendly and they even gave me a swim cap that I can use when I go swimming later on (yes, I'm going to put on a bathing suit).

Later on in the afternoon I went to K-mart... it's conveniently located on the 6 which runs near my apartment. I bought two pillows and a new towell... I don't know if I can afford all these expenditures.. hopefully the job thing will come through soon. If not I guess I'll have to start looking in earnest for something.

Maybe Martha Stewart will ask me to work for her.

Well, I think my eyelids are getting heavy again so I will try to catch a few more zzz's.

It was a bust...

Last night all my plans fell apart... aside from dinner I didn't go to the opening and I didn't go out with friends.

On the plus side I did go to bed at 9:30 (that's 12:30 in New York) and am feeling rested.

Hopefully when I get to New York my posts will get a little more interesting... I'll have more interesting things to talk about... one thing that will be interesting is that I found out that I got tickets to attend a taping of the Martha Stewart show... that should be fun... okay maybe fun is not the word I'm looking for... it will be an event. I will let you all know about when I will be on the air.

Everyone can uncross their fingers now.

The gods have spoken and Sabra was chosen as America's Favorite dancer on SYTYCD. I know that may not rank up there with important news events of the day but for me it was the most important. Who wants to hear about all that gloomy stuff. I want to spread the joy of dance (and reality television).

I have requested tickets to see a live taping of the Martha Stewart show... hopefully I'll get on and she'll be giving away good stuff. It would be fun to see how many television shows I could get on in a three month period.... hmmm. maybe I'll do that.

This morning my laptop is making a few noises (the fan is whirring)... I hope it's not going to die. That would suck - I should probably break out the hard drive and back it up.

Remember, only ten and a half hours until the weekend - Pacific Standard Time.
