Our Yearly Playlist

#60 Done

Six classes in and even the basic steps like this one are really hard to get. Tango isn’t choreographed, but looks like it when mastered. Every move comes from the man. When you know what you’re doing, a man should be able to lead any woman (who is a tango dancer) on the floor and dance an entire routine without ever speaking. If I…

He walks on water.

A beautiful day in Beverly Hills.

#82 Done

#82: Eat at Dan Tana’s This place hasn’t change since Sinatra made it his local haunt.

Back in Burbank.

One last meal at Scarpeta.

So not disciplined.

#39 Done

#39. Eat at Jose Andres’ secret Cosmo restaurant After reserving over two months in advance, we finally got a place at the ten seat “secret” restaurant. The menu reflects the chef’s journey through Spain. It was well worth the wait.

And we’re back.

At the USR Soccer Banquet with Brittany.

A quick side trip to Riverside.

Rose. Rabbit. Lie. Is a new innovative comedy variety show at the Cosmopolitan. I was loving every second of it until I was dragged on stage to point a gun at a dog cradled in my arms. The dog is fine.

Valentine’s Day dinner at Sage.

Cosmopolitan Hotel, 2014. A throwback to when we used to post mirror pics on the blog.

Wait, there’s going to be a cloud today? Man, this weather sucks.

Kusshi, Kumamoto and charred oysters with a greek salad. Makes me miss N’awlins.

Rio will never be a mother.

I wished my nephew a happy birthday a day early. When he called me out on it I told him I was texting him from the future. I just got back to the present with proof.

After breakfast mimosas in Hollywood.

Enjoyed a Clippers win with friends.

At the game with Dad. Lebron was too much for the Paul-less Clips.

Despite a once in a generation ice storm in Atlanta, Basically Me had its best show since launching in 2010.

One of the wives (middle) of the ridiculously popular reality show, Duck Dynasty, launched her line with a fashion show that actually brought a fair amount of people out from their snow bunkers and to the show. Because of this, we had one of our better first days ever. The fact that we’re also producing the Duck Dynasty wife’s line is icing on the…

We’ve been on the runway for an hour and forty five minutes now. If it wasn’t for these pod seats, I would’ve probably lost it by now.

Rare ice, snow storm paralyzes Atlanta. In other news, we’re off to Atlanta. It’s our most important show of the year, so I’m not worried at all.

#60: Take a class For once, Sonia was out of her element buying shoes.

Watched my nephew dominate at his flag football game today. He only got to touch the ball three times because he scores every time. That boy is fast. And my niece cheered him on with some great moves.

Wow, I like two Woody Allen movies in the last five years.

#49 in Progress

49: Complete 10 nagging home repairs It took nearly a year and a half, but I finally found the right washers to reattach the shower door.

My dogs are fast asleep after a full day of play at my dad’s.

They still have it. Great show at the new Forum.

#60: Take a Class Just finished our second true Argentinean tango lesson. Still working with two left feet.

#100 In Progress

#100: Find a regular barber After nearly a decade of frequenting cut rate, supercutesque “hair stylists”, I have finally began my quest to find a regular barber. Baxter and Finley might be it. I got a cut & shave and as much as I want to love a straight razor shave, it just hurts too damn much. With that said, this place may just…

Hemingway is campaigning for a pool day on Saturday.

Over the top goodness. Great performance by Leo.

#17 in progress

#17: Attend a LA Magazine Calendar event once a month Checked out the National Geographic Photograph Exhibit at the Annenberg Space for Photography.

Old school lunch at the Apple Pan. #7 is going to take awhile with weekends like this.
