The Search for Love in Manhattan

May 27, 2005

The reading went well.

However, right now I am flying so high from the Vicodin I "borrowed" from my brother and took last night to quiet the agony in my shoulder enough for me to fall asleep that even thoughts of getting as fat as Matthew Perry and having to check myself into rehab aren't enough to bring me down.

Oh, shit. I just had a thought of my career tanking as much as Matthew Perry's has after the end of Friends.

Now that's a bucket of cold water in the face.

Okay, back on earth again.

Thing is, Matthew Perry was never cute OR funny.

I don't think you have anything to worry about.

You were fabulous.

I'm sorry I wasn't able to show up until the whole thing was over. But congrats!

Matthew Perry didn't have a career to tank FROM even at the height of "Friends."

He had a career?

Really?

Another image for you - you can be the fabulous, thin and unshavenly sexy Dr. House as you suck down the Vicodin.

The cane and the limp would suck, though.

Career, shmareer. Matthew Perry never had talent.

did anyone else happen to catch Michael Imperioli in the checkout line last night? Faustus must have some sort of law and order following. its only a matter of time before christopher meloni makes an appearance. that is, if you don't let your pill addiction get too out of hand. Ooh OOH! maybe you'll meet in rehab!

Mmmm... Hydrocodone. Glad to hear the reading went well :)

Wait, you have a psychiatrist boyfirend and he couldn't get you anything to help you sleep. Am I the only one who sees a problem here?

I can totally relate to the recurring kink on the shoulder. Ruined my cheerleading career.... hahaha! can u say gay?!

Vicodin? I would have gone for good old OxyContin.

12) David Ehrenstein said (on 05/27/05 at 08:08 PM):

Lili Taylor and Michael Imperioli
