Welcome to the Good Life!!

Allo Lovelies!!

Once again it's been a looong cold minute since I've posted, so I guess a little update action is in order. Contrary to popular belief, my lagging on posts has not been due to the new seasons of  LOST & 90210 coming back, and/or the possibility that I might have finally checked myself into a shopping addiction facility (lies, all lies!!). As some of you may recall from my last post, I have decided to go to gradschool. And as part of that decision, I've needed to take some prerequisite courses, which have been super interesting as well as super time consuming. Actually, scratch that - psychology has been super interesting and statistics has been, well let's just say, "time consuming," and move on. Good news is that I'm holding up great in both, but the bad news is that I've had little time for my usual online Tom foolery that often results in Glam Vita blog posts.

While I was away ya best believe I was living it up Girleecat style -- MEOW!! First, from late Jan. to early March, I was pimp slappin LA, SF and OC with my girl Elle Aye who is a key partner in exploits!!! Our debauchery included many fun activities, including (but not limited to;): Mos Def @ Keyclub, cheering the Lakers to victory @ Staples, being asked to strut my stuff on stage at the House of Blues (hollywood), mani/pedis galore, good times in the LA arts scene, obscene amounts of shopping, an artsy photoshoot around LA taken by Elle starring Moi, racking up a frightening amount of stalkers, and much more!! For photo documentation of some of the mayhem PG style, please click  here, here and here. (Btw, that last link was to the photo shoot we lovingly named Vivrant Thing, which I'm going to post again on this blog.)

Oh, and for those who don't already know, I just got back from a 10-day trip to India, which included tons-oh-meditation, yoga, hangin with family, shopping (of course), and meeting cool new people. It was a trip of a lifetime and I have some pix of India to post, which will also be featured in a separate post either here or on C.O.P. (another, much bigger blog I contribute to once in a looong while).

Anywho, now that we're all caught up, I'll leave you with a little ditty I like to call, Dr. Obama stunts an already stunted economy in the name of healthcare reform! As many of you already must know, Obeezy brought forth more of that change of his earlier this month when he put the smackdown on the US healthcare debacle system and flipped the script a bit. For those not really sure of what it all might mean, here's a helpful article that sums up the pro's and con's of it all. While many of the changes have been  taken as positive, some others are going to financially destroy the way many healthcare professionals are compensated. Not to mention, people like yours truly will be forced to get insurance, which is a good thing as a whole, but it also means inadvertantly picking up the slack to pay for those dumbf*cks out there who have made themselve unhealthy from years of smoking, abusing drugs and/or overconsumption of chili cheese fries. This last fact lies in direct opposition with some of my current views, namely my belief that my moolah should not go to helping  the likes of skankbags like good ol' Lilo stay upright long enough to continue to have spitting fights with Sam Ronsen...yay... ;-/
