Someone is sick of her

Is it bad that I still get so much enjoyment out of Felicity reruns. I think it is because I wish my college experience had been more like Felicity's. First of all, Felicity did not have as many people in her circle of friends coming out to her. Nearly every month one of my friends decided he was gay and he just HAD to come out to someone. Which depleted the already shallow dating pool at Hofstra by quite a bit every time. And there weren't any cute girls either.

Also, my "circle" was never quite as tight as Felicity's. I only had a group of friends twice in college -- once my freshman year, with a crowd of people who decided that we were St. Elmo's Fire. Then I pledged a sorority after I broke up with my boyfriend junior year. Other than that, I've never known what it's like to have a consistent circle of friends. My sister's theory is that because we're twins, we were born with our circle. And my mother's theory is that our family is so close that that is my circle. But I can't say I don't wish I knew what it was like to KNOW who I am going to invite if I get four tickets to a Yankee game or get free passes for a party. I consistently invite Jessica, but other than that I have dozens of people to choose from, all of whom have their own circles, circles that I just visit from time to time.

Anyway.... let's talk about something else. Is anyone else not particularly inspired by American Idol this season? I am kind of rooting for Paris or Katharine. Any opinions?

What does everyone think of all this trouble Jared Paul Stern is in? I bet it is pretty exciting for all of those PR people (not me, I represent a country, not a celebrity or anything, thank GOD) to see Page Six in trouble after all the agita they give publicists everywhere. But JPS is the author of one of my favorite all time quotes -- "Whenever you see a beautiful girl it pays to remember that someone, somewhere is sick of her." Don't you love that? He is the modern Walter Winchell who, if memory of history serves got himself in quite a bit of trouble in his day, too.
