Suri pickpocket

The Yankees won today. Woo hoo! My friend Karen came to the game with us in lieu of my mom, who wasn't really feeling well. Karen lives within walking distance of Yankee Stadium. I think if I could walk to the ballpark I might buy season tickets just for the sake of convenience. Anyway, they won 7-1. Giambi hit 2 home runs and a double -- without steroids, thank you very much. The Phoenix Suns won as well, which means the Lakers didn't and that is good enough for me.

Does anyone like Chloe Sevigny? I am struck by how pretty her eyelashes are but that's pretty much it. She's on this new show Big Love that is kind of like a train wreck. It's about polygamy, which is undeniably fascinating. For those of us who are not sure we want to get married one time, the idea that someone would want to be married three times (if they're a guy) or have to deal with your husband having multiple wives and children -- well it's a little mindblowing. Although it would help to not have to have sex with your husband during your period or when you have a migraine. You can just tell one of the other wives to do it. Anyway, Chloe Sevigny. She's freaky.

So Tom Cruise named his baby the wrong thing. Shock upon shock, the man's a moron. Apparently, Suri does not mean “princess” or whatever they thought it meant and it is not Hebrew since most Israelis questioned never heard of it, although today a story came out saying that it means “get out of here”. It can be seen as a nickname for Sarah, which is the female version of Sar which means "cabinet minister." So poetic. It is also a derivative of an Egyptian male name, something having to do with the Sun God. He's so worried about people knowing he's gay and yet he's given his daughter her drag king name at birth. How convenient! My sister told me she heard that it means "pickpocket" in Japan. I love that one the most because it’s so random. In other TomKat news, someone had to call Katie Holmes' family to tell them she had a baby. They were happy to get the call. They said they had been out of the loop because there was no cell phone signal near the rock they were living under but they were going to call Verizon and get that squared right away.
