I cannot believe I missed this. Check out this hilarious website -- Timmy Ray's "Drunk and Wearing Flipflops on 5th Avennue" (actually a QUOTE from a Rufus song...this guy really is a fan) -- which you'll always have easy access to, now that I'm linking to it.
As you can see from his 15 June entry, Rufus performed at Carnegie Hall! He and I apparently cater to the same demographic. I was happy to see, in the after party photos, that he looked a really healthy weight, so let's hope that his battle with meth et al. is totally over.
I haven't asked El Pook, yet, if he went to this performance, although I suspect he didn't, because he tends to go to Moscow whenever he has the chance to see someone interesting.
(It's 11:11, so I'm filled with double meaning)
OH! You'll also see on the website on the entry BELOW (earlier than) the Rufus concert entry that Marc Jacobs actually did a Rufus tribute at his store -- the very same store I linked-to on thie blog when Pookie still lived on Jane Street and there was a bag just FEET away that I was in love with (not quite feet away, and not quite love) -- AND, the amazing designer is SINGLE.
You have to see this link so see why it is I think I have a chance.
Ok, for those of you with limited time, I'll tell you: If you look at the site announcing Marc's breakup with his GORGEOUS 25yo boyfriend, you'll see two things. 1. That he likes younger guys (ok, his boyfriend is like 100 times cuter than I am, but it doesn't matter!...see point 2.). 2. He likes younger guys but NEEDS a guy who can be there for him when he needs him and who isn't into going clubbing every night -- he needs young but SERIOUS. That's SO ME!
If you check out the really funny (seriously, they're really funny) comments to the article on that site, you'll see the tragic news that, according to the little slut, he and Marc are back on, but I think nothing that volatile can really last. If Pookie hasn't made his move by the time I make Law Review, then I'm going after Marc (even if Pookie is way cuter and obviously has better taste in guys).
The comment that's still making me laugh is that Marc's boyfriend is "the gay hooker version of Kevin Federline" (that's Britney Spears's loser boyfriend for those of you with day jobs).
Really funny.
I know it's sad, but if you want to see the ex's friendster profile, then click here. I really hope it's a joke, because if it's not then that's just sad. As mature as I thought Marc's post-breakup comments were (about control and need and all that), I almost feel like if he's stupid enough to stick with that guy for 6 months then he might not be good enough for me!
XOXO
