Lady Di would DIE!

Weight: x+16 - superb victory against a week of comfort foods and no time for exercise.  However, it does make me face up to the denial I unsuccessfully attempted to have on Monday.

Just finished Newsweek's article about Lady Di at 50 (her facebook page, iPhone, tweets, etc).  Wowza.  What a creepy article.  Truly mystifying that they called that news.  I felt like I was reading Vanity Fair at best. 

However, it's worth noting that Lady Di's top favorite movie on her facebook page was, of course, Bridget Jones's Diary.

In general, I tend to be liberal leaning, but the whole freaking magazine was actually so unabashedly liberal, fake (like the Di article), and un-newsworthy that I have to question my subscription. Not to mention a really strange chart on page 71. (If you read it, you probably know the one I'm talking about.)

In other news, I guess Prince William and Princess Kate will be here in California this weekend.  Who cares.  All that really means to me is there might be some really bad traffic.

  1. I don't find anything about that issue to be that liberal. It was like tabloid tv and totally creepy.

  2. Oh no, that wasn't the liberal part. The whole magazine was, though. Take a look sometime.

  3. I read it... I think our definitions of liberal are different. I felt like I was one step closer to reading US weekly... which is depressing.
