LIFE: Food poisoning: Home sick: Stream of consciousness/channel surfing

-I’m sitting at home watching Laila Ali do the Lindy Hop to a saccharine remix of Stevie Wonder’s “Part-Time Lovers” on “Dancing With The Stars.” This is one of the most popular shows on television. Has the tube really come to this?

-My stomach is gurgling. Shouldn’t have eaten so many crackers with that peppermint tea.

-VH1 is showing a clip of Puff aka P.Diddy peeing, after which five commentators give their opinions on it. Does it really take five people to comment on his bathroom habits?

-CNN says blacks and latinos are twice as likely to be pulled over by the cops. It’s clearly a slow news day.

-Kate Moss’ clothing line went on sale at Top Shop today. I wonder if I should place an order online.

-I feel nauseous and, yet, still hungry.

-Mom is coming to town for a five-day visit on Thursday. Note to self to buy “Lion King” theater tickets. Or maybe she’ll want to see Fantasia in “Color Purple”?

-Back to “Dancing With the Stars.” Am I the only one who has been calling him “Eee-an Ziering” all this time?
