I Will Always Blog You

I really dropped the self-promotion ball and forgot to mention Lady Meares predicted I'll be big in 2012 to ELLEDecor.com. Ain't that nice? I'm just hoping she'll remember our chip buffets and talks out loud when her Furbish empire gets Oprah-sized. You connect the dots but I also pimped my shiny red pad on The Nate Show's "House Proud" segment.  I had a blast filming this but watching it is about 50 times worse than hearing your own outgoing voicemail message. Think Alana might give me a few pointers on stage presence? (My personal go-go juice is Diet Dr. Pepper but I draw the line at showing my belly.) Anyhooboo, thanks Jamie and Nate.

On to the important stuff: my first record album (the vinyl kind) was Dolly Parton's Greatest Hits, featuring the original "I Will Always Love You," and my first compact disc was The Bodyguard soundtrack. In between there was a trip to Disney World's Fort Wilderness during which my sister and I wore out the "Whitney"cassette in a rented motor home. So, as my earplugged neighbors will tell you, I'm still going through it with this situation:


On the teevee I heard India.Arie quote Anita Baker as saying it takes three generations to produce one Whitney Houston. Which makes me grateful to have had her around for my first 29+ years but bored as hell thinking about the next 60 or so with just ... Aguilera? A miasma of melisma awaits us. 

But when I close my peepers tonight everything -- people, rooms, skirt suits -- will look as beautiful and effortless as this performance:

 

Goodbye, Whitney. You really did almost have it all.
