         <title>I feel like I&apos;m 15 again...</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>In case you missed it (like I did because of an 8am conference call...sorry, bitter), the New Kids on the Block performed together on the Today Show this morning for the first time in 15 years. You can see all the videos on the <a href="http://today.msnbc.msn.com/">Today Show's website</a>. </p>

<p>Some commentary de Trixie:</p>

<p>1. No surprises in the "who would be the one to lose their hair first" question. </p>

<p>2. Jon is still the most unenthusiastic performer and awkward dancer ever. It's almost painful to watch.</p>

<p>3. Um, Jordan? Looks EXACTLY the same. I want the name of his dermatologist. </p>

<p>4. When Joey put that hat on and belted out the opening line of <em>Please Don't Go Girl</em> I teared up. Don't judge me. </p>

<p>5. There were hundreds of people in Rockefeller Center this morning who are worse packrats than I am. Seriously, sweetie? You kept your "extra large Hangin' Tough button?" It's nice to know I'm not alone. </p>]]></description>

         <title>I almost missed a sale</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Last night I had my weekly physical therapy appointment (yes, my back is still a mess, and probably always will be, but if you think that's going to stop me from wearing heels, you're sorely mistaken). I was setting up my appointment for next week with the receptionist when I realized, to my horror, I left my blackberry at work. This wouldn't be such a big deal if my blackberry were not my phone, but I was phoneless. In Uptown (those of you in Chicago...feel free to gasp in horror).</p>

<p>Somehow I managed to make it out of the land of methadone clinics and popeye's chicken franchises without needing to dial 911. When I came in to the office this morning (for an 8am conference call...on a FRIDAY), I checked my phone and saw that I had 6 missed calls:</p>

<p><em>1. Booty Call*<br />
2. Booty Call*<br />
3. Mom<br />
4. BCBG informing me of a Sale<br />
5. Girlfriend<br />
6. Booty Call*</em></p>

<p>I'm so glad BCBG left a message.</p>

<p>*Please let it be known that the three booty calls were all the same guy (I'm not THAT much of a hussy). He's persistent (and likely intoxicated). I'm sorry, dude. <br />

         <title>An immediate and unpleasant intestinal reaction...</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Last night at girls' night out sushi dinner, my girlfriend used those words to describe what happens when she eats scallops. And I have to say, it's like the best description of explosive diarrhea I've ever heard. I'm going to work it into my vocabulary ASAP. </p>]]></description>

         <title>Last Night</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Ok...I'm not allowed to post comments about my Victoria/David Beckham fantasy before bed anymore. I had the craziest dream last night.</p>

<p>I dreamt that I was BFF with Victoria and we were shopping. She drove a Honda Del Sol. It was weird. And we went to Target. She told me she always buys her handbags at Target. And I said, "But what about all of the Birkins?" </p>

<p>"They're fake, love," she said. "Target is mayjah! Now hurry up, we have to go pick up Marc <em>(Jacobs, of course)</em> at JoAnn Fabrics."</p>

<p>And then I woke up in a cold sweat.<br />

         <title>Top 5</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Everyone has a top 5 list. You know, the list of the 5 celebrities you're allowed to (in your dreams) sleep with should the opportunity (in your dreams) ever arise. Although a male friend of mine recently argued that guys should be allotted 10 celebs and women only 5 because we women stand a better chance of sleeping with our male celeb fantasies than they do. It's an interesting argument. </p>

<p>Here's my list (Please note, they are in no particular order. Unless I happen to actually meet one of them...then you're number one, baby. You've always been number one...call me!):</p>

<p>1. <a href="http://www.davidbeckham.com/">David Beckham</a>: Absolutely no commentary needed. He's quite possibly the perfect male specimen...as long as he doesn't talk. (Ok, so I added commentary...shoot me).  </p>

<p>2. <a href="http://www.michaelphelps.com/">Michael Phelps</a>: That's right. The body makes the list. Don't hate.</p>

<p>3. <a href="http://www.pgatour.com/players/02/45/02/">Adam Scott:</a> A beautiful professional golfer/Burberry model with an Aussie accent? Yes please!</p>

<p>4. <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0654110/">Clive Owen</a>: I always say the movie <em>Closer </em>is the most unrealistic movie ever because no woman would EVER dump Clive Owen for that awkward midget, Jude Law. It just wouldn't happen. Clive is hot.</p>

<p>5. <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0836176/">Geoff Stultz</a>: I watched both seasons of <em>October Road</em> in their entirety (some episodes twice) because of him. That's love right there, bitches. At one time I was going to have a t-shirt made that says, "I (heart) Eddie Latekka." That's right...I'm as pathetic as you think I am right now. But come on, he dates the chubby girl. It's like the cutest story line ever!</p>

<p>That's my list as of 5/5/08. I'm a fickle bitch. It can change. <br />

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Hello lambs! It's Trixie here. No not <a href="http://www.thebunnyblog.com">Bunny</a>, my super interesting sister who actually has good taste in sports. I'm Trixie, the one who fucks gay guys.</p>

<p>I'd just like to take a moment to talk to you about my new shoes, the <a href="http://www.swissmasaius.com/Products.aspx?categoryId=3&productId=15219">MBT Karani's! </a>I'm wearing them everywhere, and they are totally helping the blood circulation in my legs!</p>

         <title>5 Things I love Now</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p><br />
<strong>1. The <a href="http://www.pedegg.com/?directLoad&uid=2F916543D1813F65110A4398F92197D2">Pedegg</a>:</strong> This may be the single best thing I've ever bought (or...had given to me, as is the case here). The story behind my having a pedegg is absolutely hilarious, and I'll never do it justice, so here's the short version. My mother is a diabetic, so therefore suffers from the bad feet (totally medical term). She gets regular pedicures (I've taught her well), but they can't even cure the bad feet. In her quest to find something...anything...that would help, she accidentally orderd $84 worth of Pedeggs from HSN (or one of those things). So guess who got one? And I'm serious when I say that it's the best thing ever. My feet? Like a baby's ass! </p>

<p><strong>2. My <a href="http://na.blackberry.com/eng/devices/device-detail.jsp?navId=H0,C201,P463">Blackberry</a>:</strong> I don't know why I waited so long to embrace the Smartphone thing (it could be because I'm about as techie as a senior citizen). It's still way too much phone for me, but I love how I discover something new it does every day.</p>

<p><strong>3. My new <a href="http://www.birdiegirl.ca/site/product_detail.asp?id=112&discount=&ab=203">golf bag</a>:</strong> So I've talked myself down off the "I need to have the houndstooth, Nike golf bag" ledge, and I'm embracing my love for the bag I got for Christmas. I know, I know...you'll all be able to sleep tonight.</p>

<p><strong>4. These <a href="http://www.lambshoes.com/cgi-bin/lamb/store/product_detail.html?mv_arg=x&pid=9525:012">shoes</a>: </strong>I'm not going to tell you the story of how these shoes came to live with me because it would make you even more jealous of my luckiness, but I am absolutely in love with these shoes. They don't look like it, but they go with everything. And I am one tall drink of water in these bitches.</p>

<p><strong>5. The weather today:</strong> I don't want to jinx the fine residents of Chicago, but we may be out of the water, folks. Wrigley, street fests, day drinking, North Ave beach...here I come!</p>

         <title>An open letter to my sister...</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Hi!</p>

<p>I love you! </p>

<p>Let's call a truce. I'm sorry I hacked into your site and posted that you love golf. If it makes you feel any better, I didn't sleep a wink last night for fear of your retribution (it also could have been the bad Mexican I ate for dinner, but we won't talk about that). </p>

<p>I love you!</p>

<p>---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</p>

<p>Now that that's over with...there will be absolutely <em><strong>NO </strong></em>more disparaging comments about Adam, Sergio, or any other extremely masculine member of the PGA tour. Failure to comply will result in your commenting privileges being revoked. </p>

<p>You've been warned. Fear my wrath.<br />

         <title>GSP? What kind of a name is that?</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>I have to post the comment Bunny left for my last entry here. It's too funny to be hidden in the comments where people might not read it...</p>

<p>------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</p>

<p><em>How did we come out of the same woman? Seriously. </p>

<p>Oh, and don't be talkin' shit about the UFC, bitch. Remember that day in the fifth grade when you were well within the circumference of Danny Eagle's iceball pelting reach while wearing your pink golashes which slid uselessly on the ice afront Phillip's Street Elementary--function > fashion, sorry to say--and your pigtails and arms were all akimbo in an overstuffed, fur-trimmed jacket the color of marigolds that hung in the midday sun, noticeable to Danny Eagle as a three legged Wildebeest with Tourettes? That was a day upon which you had mad respect for my front kick, didn't you?</p>

<p>Additionally, I'm not certain I would post three pictures of dudes in faggoty sweaters and polos with pencil-thin facial hair and pronounce their "sport" more masculine than MMA, but then I tend to be the one who sleeps with the straight guys. Cough *faghag* cough.</p>

<p>And do not ever--EVER--make fun of GSP's shoulders. Much magic lies within them.</em></p>

<p>------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</p>

<p>Now that I've stopped laughing I have a few comments:</p>

<p>Let's be honest here. Which is more gay? This?</p>

<p><img alt="MAS220ScottTee1.jpg" src="http://www.thetrixie.com/archives/upload/2008/04/MAS220ScottTee1.jpg" width="384" height="287" /></p>

<p><br />
or This?</p>

<p><img alt="ufc-rhapsody-sponsorship.jpg" src="http://www.thetrixie.com/archives/upload/2008/04/ufc-rhapsody-sponsorship.jpg" width="360" height="268" /></p>

<p>I'm just sayin'...</p>

<p>Also, I was not wearing pigtails during the Danny Eagle incident she speaks of. Pigtails? In 5th grade? I don't think so. The fur trimmed jacket was hot though. And I don't know what this "front kick" thing is, but she nailed him in the balls, I cried, and then we ran home. That happened a lot come to think of it.</p>

<p>It should also be noted that I don't "sleep with gay men." It's only happened twice (maybe three times...there's one I'm still on the fence about). And they were both straight at the time. </p>]]></description>

         <title>The difference between good and bad facial hair...</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Periodically I'll get emails from guys asking my opinion on facial hair. First of all, why men read this site is beyond me. And why they care what my opinion of facial hair is, I don't quite understand either, but whatevs. </p>

<p>My stance on facial hair is not very strong. I feel like sometimes it's god awful, and sometimes it's kind of sexy. However, even when it's kind of sexy, it's complete murder on your girl's skin. You see, we get what's called make out rash. I recently has to slather my face with vaseline for two whole days after a date. I'm still breaking out. This is why I prefer the men I date to be clean shaven. </p>

<p>But let's discuss the difference between good and bad facial hair. Good facial hair means a little scruffiness all around. Bad facial hair mean a mustache, goatee, or any type of creative facial grooming. Not following me? I'll show you. </p>

<p>It's Sunday, so of course I've been watching golf (tangent: <a href="http://www.thetrixie.com/archives/trixie_on_the_m.phtml">my boyfriend, Adam</a>, won today, and looked SO fucking good doing it in a gorgeous Burberry sweater). So I'll use a golf example. </p>

<p>Sergio on Thursday = Good.</p>

<p><img alt="SergGoodbeard.jpg" src="http://www.thetrixie.com/archives/upload/2008/04/SergGoodbeard.jpg" width="300" height="255" /></p>

<p>Sergio on Friday = Bad.</p>

<p><img alt="SergBadBeard.jpg" src="http://www.thetrixie.com/archives/upload/2008/04/SergBadBeard.jpg" width="295" height="258" /></p>

<p>I'm not sure what's going on with the rodent that's taken up residence on his chin, but it has to stop. Did he get drunk and decide to shave his beard off? Was he running late and didn't have time to finish? Or does he think this is ok? </p>

<p>This is NEVER ok, boys. Never. Ok. </p>

<p><br />

         <title>All aboard the crazy train...</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p></p>

<p>Boy I really brought the crazy with that last entry, huh?</p>

<p>Wow... </p>

<p>Thanks for all of your kind words of encouragement, but really, I'm fine. Just stressed out about work and some things and they all just bubbled up...inside Loehmann's. Seriously, I'm fine. If I have another breakdown in Nordstrom Rack then you can start really worrying about me.</p>

<p>Speaking of crazy...</p>

<p>I have an appointment with Chaz tomorrow morning. He just called me to tell me that he's fighting with his salon, so he's going to do my hair at his house tomorrow morning. Mind you, last week he cancelled my appointment because his car was impounded and his registration revoked, so he had to deal with that. It's a good thing he's a genius...<br />

         <title>You would cry too...</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>...if it happened to you.</p>

<p>Whilst browsing in the State Street Loehmann's during my lunch break, I had a kinda/sorta meltdown. (Tangent: I have <em>NEVER </em>been more disappointed in a store in my life than the State Street Loehmann's. Besides being a completely uncomfortable shopping experience with the full length windows for walls - like I really want all of my coworkers to walk by and see me bargain shop? - it is grossly cluttered, and overall just a mess. It's more TJ Maxx than Loehmann's, and it pisses me off...end tangent). I had just found a killer pair of gorgeous, white, Nanette Lepore pants that made my ass look outstanding for 75% off, and was walking around with them slung over my arm. I was feeling good.</p>

<p>I wandered over to the dress section and started digging (because that's what you have to do at this Loehmann's...dig), and I saw it... The <em>CUTEST </em>little DVF sundress <em>EVER</em>! This was a good day. I was going to land a DVF dress and a pair of Nanette Lepore pants on the same day. I picked up the dress, and it was a size 12. Panic set it. I started furiously flipping through the rack and saw another one. In a size 2. I attacked the surrounding racks. No more dress. Mother Fuck. I had to have this dress. It was supposed to be mine. It was already packed in the suitcase in my mind and going to LA with me next month. </p>

<p>I grabbed the 12 off the rack and ran back to the dressing rooms to ask if they had it in a 4, 6 or 8 (I'm flexible, and I have a fabulous seamstress). Of course they didn't. I started to think about how much it would cost for a seamstress to make the 12 fit me. And for a fleeting moment I contemplated a breast reduction so the 2 would fit (I'm pathetic, I know, but it was only for a fleeting moment). And then I started to cry. Now granted, I have a lot going on right now, and the crying was definitely more about everything else and less about the dress, but the point of this story is...I cried in Loehmann's.</p>

<p>I'm pathetic.<br />
