I hit my first Film Festival party the other night after a loooong day of work. But the insta-glamour of the smokey eye did not fail me, and I managed to blend in with all the beautiful people at the Ultra Supper Club. Boy George was spinning, and I got a little into it, even though I’m not a fan of house music. He seemed really focused, but every now and then he’d crack a huge smile, which was awfully cute.
I kept an eagle eye out for famous folks, but alas, besides the DJ, I was disappointed. Apparently, D.B. Sweeney was there, but who’s going to be impressed when I say I was at a party attended by him? No offence, D.B., but you’re low on street cred.
There was a hot guy checking me out on the dance floor, but for some reason I chose to be a good friend instead, and stayed with my buddy. I really have to learn to kill that instinct. On a somewhat related sidenote, men with broad shoulders in suits are like catnip to me. Catnip.
After clearing my Hotmail account of spam and Facebook notices, Sympatico/MSN(/whatever company name they’re using these days) lead me to this little gem: an excerpt from Jerry Seinfeld’s new book. Which, coincidentally, talks about dating! Enjoy!

I am extremely, extremely jealous, you were at a party with Mr. Damned Beautiful Sweeney, and I missed this party. I would not only have been impressed (I am impressed.) I am also insanely jealous. I think he’s got plenty of street cred, and talent. Hope you enjoy the rest of the festival.
And yes I totally agree with you on men with broad shoulders in suits being…addictive. I swoon just thinking of DB in a suit.
If it makes you feel any better, I probably wasn’t ever within ten metres of him. But who am I to try and make people feel better? Nyah nyah, I was totally at a party with D.B. Sweeney!
I would have died and gone to heaven if I got to meet D.B. Sweeney. I know he is a little older but check him out in The Cutting Edge. Too handsome for words. He is still a good looking guy and enormously talented. He is the kind of actor who can do many different roles and blends into each one of them. Not famous in a typecasted way so I assume that is why you say he does not have street cred.
Suzie, okay, I’m laughing at your nyah, nyah. Lucky woman, seriously lucky. Too bad you didn’t get to meet him though, he seems truly nice.
But I agree with Charlotte, I’d have completely died and gone to heaven if I’d met him. I think he’s awesome. The Cutting Edge rocked, I loved him in Jericho, and he’s going to be doing Crash on Starz this season.
I think he’s still too handsome for words, in fact more now, than then. He tended to a slight bit of “cute” when he was younger (circa Cutting Edge.) He’s grown into his looks now. Wow. For all the jokes he makes about what the DB stands for I will always think he’s Damned Beautiful.
Hey there Suze,
Coincidentally I was at the same party, but I was up on the roof patio. Idunno, Boy George? Kinda creeps me out. Saw D.B. though, good times!
As a single, young and elegible FastLife event host i’ve been plunged into the same dating world as yourself. Thought i’d share an experience from a couple of months ago:
I dated a lesbian. She had never gone hetero, but we got along and she expressed her interest. I wonder your thoughts on this Suze. She wasn’t quite Bi, but more like 1/3rd hetero but we had a strong mental connection. It went on for about a month, but she never really got used to having a wang in the mix. Also she would hit on or flirt with girls around me. I later learned she thought I would be cool/excited to see that happen, but although we were not exclusive, to me its still not much different from her hitting on other guys.
Long story short it was a bit weird and we broke it off. I’m wondering, do you think that as lesbians become more accepted and commonplace and less taboo, guys will lose interest in the idea of watching girls kiss? I mean, what does it really do for us? Like maybe 20 years from now two girls kissing in a bar will be more ‘get a room’ and less ’someone get a camera!’
Wow, I HOPE so. I’ve always found the men loving lesbians thing kind of creepy. I mean, I get somewhat gooey inside seeing men hold hands, but that is TOTALLY different. In my head, there’s a movie trailer going, “In a world where their love dare not speak its name…” and at the end of the movie, love conquers all and they defy societal pressure to be able to express their love out in the open.
That’s me being a closet romantic, to sum up, rather than a sexual voyeur gawking at two people who just aren’t interested in me. Plus, young women who are just learning how to deal with their sexuality often make out with each other just for attention. Which totally ruins it for the real lesbians out there!
Buuut… I have to think that as long as men are into threesomes (so, forever), the sight of two girls together are going to be a turn on.
