Hanging Out at the Rehearsals for the Golden Globe Awards
‘ Two Saturdays ago, as the Grim Cheaper and I were heading out to Santa Monica to run some errands, I got a text message from fellow stalker Lavonna reminding me that the Golden Globe Awards were being held the following evening at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills.

Armando’s in the Desert

Going on Vacation!
