As Valerie Cherish puts it, “Hello, hello, hello, hello.” So. Once again, I’m leaving on a jet plane — part three for July. In a whirlwind return from Italia, I had a few days back in the office. Then slam, bam, alakazam, I was back on a plane and out to California with an on air anchor at CNN. That was actually fun — he and his family were awesome — and Jeannie and I were able to have our obligatory wine at Willi’s Wine Bar. A really great place.
Then swoosh, I was back in New York, only to realize that I was due out in San Diego for ComicCon! Luckily, I was able to delay my travels — but I’m now off again…. Oh my — I cannot wait to blog about that scene. Seriously, if you have not been to ComicCon, put it on your bucket list. It’s a crazy ass adventure. People prove themselves to be fucked in the head crazy ass at this place. I can’t say that I like it — but I also don’t hate it. I think it’s one of those love to hate and hate to love kind of things for me. Like that damn idiotic bad and great show Girls.
So — I’m off to ComicCon tomorrow — and I think there will be some fun blog entries from it. We’ve got a lot going on there.
Separately, last week, I was at the 5th Anniversary taping of Andy Cohen’s Watch What Happens Live. About a month ago, one of the producers asked me if Snoopy would be on the show — and of course I immediately said yes. Andy is a die hard and loyal Snoopy fan, and we would do anything for him. And in this case, it meant having Snoopy surprise him on set as the bartender for this momentous episode. (No, no. Snoopy did not serve booze. Calm down. It’s okay. Don’t have a heart attack. The G Rated Beagle served alcohol free Sno-Cones. Chill. We did not break the rules.)
Anyway — it was a total love fest — and the best and funniest part of the evening was when Andy asked his staff to get his own personal beagle Wacha to come onto the set. Wacha immediately took to Snoopy but thought Snoopy was a large chew toy. It was so fucking funny — but poor Snoopy! He had to withstand Wacha’s attack. Wacha’s attack was purely out of love for the game, but it was still pretty wild. And I was a bad publicist because I just watched it happening — and I didn’t save Snoopy immediately. I did eventually though….My apologies to the beagle.
Please be sure to peruse the photo of Snoop and the rest of the show’s guests. Notice Wacha all riled up and ready to rumble. Also, check out http://www.bravotv.com and look for the video of Wacha eating Snoopy (his big chew toy) alive. Then scan 2 1/2 minutes into the video and watch what happens to Snoopy live.
xoxoxxo To ComicCon I go.
