The Fabulous Life of Jobin Hume

Have you used this chair?

 

Ok the designer of the Hilton Glendale is a sadist. This chair looks all ergonomic and awesome but in reality it is hard plastic little nubs. It is like a chair made of chain link fence or something. 

Also they don't have wireless in the rooms for whatever lame reason. So could they at least put a longer cord on the wired connection so you don't have to sit in the chair of pain?

I know, I know. Problems of the upper middle class...

Milestones

Last week I took a friend of mine to get her first Botox.  This is a milestone for both of us.  Her because now that seal is broken and it leads to all other kinds of vanity you didn't know you had in you.

Me because it is one thing to buy a friend a pedicure or manicure for their birthday.  This is a whole other genre - some kind of switch has been flipped.

Also, I came to the realization that I get Botox 3-4 times per year, but only go to the dentist twice per year.  While I realize this is the correct schedule, it worries me nonetheless.

How did this get lost in the shuffle?

OK - I am just now watching the MTV Video Music Awards from Sunday night. Because there has been so much talk about Kanye-gate 2009 no one has mentioned the BIZARRO public therapy session Madonna conducted at the beginning of the ceremony.

1 - no one needs a lecture about how we abandoned Michael Jackson.  He caused his own problems.

2 - She looked like a wax statue.  Less is more when you are injecting your face. And back-combing your hair.  And lecturing the audience of millions.

3 - Speaking of wax statue - as I have said before.  I don't get Lady Gaga.  She is growing on me as in I sing along on the radio, etc - but then she breaks out some nonsense like this and I just don't even know what to say or where to look. 

4 - I like it that Madonna is totally somber and yet we get crowd shots of Pink checking her blackberry.  I feel you Pink.

5 - Janet looks totally fierce!

6 - I usually can't stand Katy Perry, and yet I am loving her singing Queen!

Ten minutes in, I am loving this show - how did ALL of this get pushed aside by yet another Kanye West outburst?  I am a fan, but seriously, isn't it more noteworthy when he doesn't embarass himself?  How did I not watch this live?  Next year if you could just remind me that I wanted to watch live, that would be awesome.

Is this even possible?

Watching Hillary Clinton on Meet the Press.  Is there any chance that "broken elbow" is code for face lift?  I am not even kdding.  She looks great, at a MINIMUM botox and fillers.  The difference between March and July is shocking.  I realize one is a close up and one isn't, but come on - decide for yourself:

March: 

July:

I'm Just Saying

Just because you call it a "Cosmetic Procedure" doesn't mean it's not a tattoo....
