Cold Paella Salad

Celebrate! The Fog was the number one film this weekend! Once again, yours truly was handed a script a year ago (guess which one) and asked to do some fine tuning - dumbed it down to the nth degree and voila! Box office gold!

Diana called this morning about the murder of Daniel Horowitz's wife. Horowitz represented Diana in six of her seventeen divorce proceedings so she said that she was flying out to Lafayette tomorrow to help in any way possible...that's Ms. Luxemburg, ever the caring friend.

Hank left early this morning to go to Burbank to shoot some scenes for an independent film he's working on ... played tennis with Matthew Perry this morning who told me that he saw Doris Roberts passed out in front of The House of Blues on Sunset last night, he said the LAPD had to pick her up and drive her away ... over a couple of Virgin Mary's I told Matt about the trip to the Sheldrake Room on Saturday, told him everyone was asking for him. He said that he was sorry he did not make it, but he and Topher Grace went to The Abbey; he swore he did not drink, but said that young Mr. Grace downed enough gin and vodka to win the Neely O'Hara award, none the less the boys had a great time according to Matt and they checked in to the Holiday Inn on Figueroa to "sleep off" the night's festivities... drove over to Paramount and dropped off the Jim Carey script with all the new revisions... saw Madonna in front of Splendora on Melrose screaming at her daughter and son; no faux British accents, just plain old mid-west trash talk; she's fastly becoming Joan Crawford ... Dana Owens called me on my cell (that's Queen Latifah to you), said she loved the tweaking on her sit-com pilot offered me a gig as head writer, told her I'd consider this option ...

Saw Kurt and Goldie (they both look great, BTW) at Albertsons on Figueroa, we bumped in to each other at the cold cuts case and discussed Ricky Martin's "comeback". Kurt pulled me aside and said that he had heard that I had fucked Ricky that time in South Beach, and I said, "No Kurt, that was you!"

Hooked up with Matt later on and we had an early dinner at Spago and over a couple of cold paella salads we discussed his audition the other day at Disney , he also told me that a ton of residual checks from that old sit-com of his just came in, so that was good ... Hank called me on my cell and said he was home, I picked up a take out of Chinese duck with plum sauce and chinois pancakes to bring back to Mr. Man... on my way to my car, I saw Mel Gibson and a group of Opus Dei members holding a protest march in front of Denny's on Sunset Blvd.
