I don't even know what to say...

Sandra Bernard and Madonna on David Letterman in 1988, according to Bernard they were a couple back then.

A weekend well spent

I had a long weekend as Friday was a catholic holiday and I really enjoyed it!! It was raining buckets on Friday and Saturday, so I spent the days camped out in from of our new, huge TV-screen.

On Saturday, I met a dear friend, Ms. A., to watch 'The Mummy' at the movies. It was okay, funny at times and I loved Maria Bello - even though I prefer her as a 'darker/sexier' character (think 'A History of Violence'). After the film we went back to my place and watched the end of 'Garfield' (not good, strange animation), '50 First Dates' (cute!), parts of a Madonna concert from her 'Confessions tour' (amazing!!). There was one interlude in which voices talked about child abuse, self injury and gang wars and her dancers did an interpretive dance - that part was so powerful it took my breath away!



On Sunday, I camped out on the couch again, watching reality TV and parts of 'I'm going to tell you a secret', which was really interesting. I always thought that Madonna must be pretty smart, just because she's so versatile and she said some really interesting, smart things in the documentary. It made me like her even more. I never realized how political her shows are, pretty impressive!

Today, work was actually really good, I had a lot to do and I did most of the work on my own and the time passed pretty quickly! The length of a day can feel so different when you have things to do. I feel really accomplished! I also already started planning which courses I will take next term, more about that maybe some other time.

Pink, Madonna, Ellen & Portia

Previous Weekend Crush Pink released a new single called "So What" which is a message to her ex-husband Cary Hart. What happened to 'best friends with a huge amount of love and respect for one another'? I like the new song, but I'm not sure whether I really love it. Some excerpts from "So What":

"I guess I just lost my husband
I don't know where he went
So I'm gonna drink my money
I'm not gonna pay his rent"

"What if this song's on the radio

Then somebody's gonna die

I'm gonna get in trouble

My ex will start a fight"

I have to say the lyrics are pretty damn good. I can't wait for more singles to be released, the album is going to be released October 28th.

Madonna turned 50 today! Happy Birthday to her majesty. Whether you like her music or not, I think we all have to agree that she's a genius, she has reinvented herself so many times it's amazing. I generally like her music, I keep dancing to "4 Minutes".

Ellen and Portia are getting married this weekend!! All love and happiness to my favourite IRL couple, you deserve it!
