The last few days I should have spent working on my NaNoWriMo project, but something has... distracted me. Or overwhelmed me. Or captivated me.

His name is David Bowie.

You may call him Ziggy Stardust.

Lol. I used to have this friend who was in major love with David Bowie. She was literally crazy about him. And Johny Depp, but Bowie was number one.

The only thing I know about David Bowie is that he's married to Iman.

Haha, I feel pretty crazy about David Bowie. What a lucky man, married to a supermodel like Iman. =)

She's not only beautiful, she's incredibly smart as well- fluent in five languages and the CEO of her own company. At fifty-something, she's still gorgeous and will continue to be even as the younger ones succumb to their drug habits, lol.

Wow, I didn't know that. I only knew that she has an amazing personality--real personal warmth and generosity. =)

Hey there anonymous June 6 2008, 22:28:27 UTC
I stumbled across your blog while looking for a good picture of the Bowie/NIN tour, which I was lucky enough to see on my 23rd birthday - it was my fourth time seeing Bowie (Glass Spider, Sound + Vision, and Tin Machine - saw him two more times - on the Earthling and Reality tours).

Anyway, I don't know if you're aware of this, but there is a pretty high quality bootleg available called Live Hate 1995 - another good bootleg is 50 Dead Dogs, taken from David Bowie's 50th birthday at MSG.

I'm glad to hear that there are new Bowie fans out there. The man is a genius. My personal favorites are Life On Mars, Heroes, Hallo Spaceboy(which I heard for the first time with NIN).
