I am a big catalogue shopper of "Coldwater Creek", they have no outlets in Canada. Strolling down El Paseo -- the 'Rodeo Drive' of Palm Springs -- I was happy to see one of their stores. Went in and bought a gorgeous pair of white hip-hugger pants, a fabulous flower-print linen jacket and a black shrug for those "cellulite" moments we must all avoid.
We lunched at a local restaurant and were regaled with past Indian Wells tales by the bar tender. "Andre Agassi was a real jerk," said our waiter. Really? I always thought he was very cool. "No, he was rude and impolite to his fans," he added. "Pete Sampras was lovely." A recent poll revealed that the most admired man in the world was Nelson Mandela. Next? Roger Federer. Yes indeed. As I have blogged, B and I saw Roger win his first Wimbledon when he prevailed over Andy Roddick in 2004 (?), can't remember the year. It might have been 2006??
Watched the Oscars last evening, against my better judgement. All the women are starving themselves, seriously. Glad McConahey (sp?) won for best actor, but he actually won for losing 40 pounds. Jared Leto's makeup artist should have won, not Leto himself. Cross dress and you'll win. It's all so dumb, but I watched!
Weather has turned warm again here in Palm Springs.

Everyone knocks the Oscars - yet it is the most watched public programme in the WORLD!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI thought Angelina Jolie walking with Sidney Poitier who just turned 80 and is dying was very moving. It's easy to criticize - but if you every attended you would love it. I thought the Dr. who did Goldie's Plastic surgery should be sued. Sad to see Liza Minelli!!!!!!!
So happy your enjoying the warm weather.
hugs, Me.
Didn't get back early enough to see Goldie's face. Didn't know Sidney Poitier was dying? So sad. But 80 is a good age. He is married to a Canadian. Liza Minelli has looked like a cadaver for years.
