I moved… yada yada and hooray! Below is a video I shot a few days ago. I’m still organizing the new place.
On an alternate, highly personal note and to address a little Facebook uproar I carelessly whipped up with friends on pins and needles that I “quit acting,” my own fault for using those very [...]
In Koreatown
I live in the ghetto right now. Not the word ghetto as it was originally used in Venice to describe the area where Jews were compelled to live. That was ghetto for real. But I do live in the ghetto as is now described as an overcrowded urban area often associated with a specific [...]
I was at the Coffee Bean on Wilshire and Vermont in Los Angeles yesterday trying to write my book when I inadvertently and advertently overheard two senior citizens on their first date. They’d met on Match.com. Hilarity ensued. Here’s my video about yesterday that Stan shot on my iPhone.
Stan is the most amazing boyfriend ever. I’m not just saying that cause he’ll read this and then I’ll get some action later. Anyway, he got us tickets to see David Sedaris, who currently happens to be my favorite book author. This was last night and we drove for about an hour down to the [...]
Today I shot some hoops at the Los Angeles Pan Pacific Park’s basketball courts. I was the only girl shooting hoops, trying to beat Stan at Around the World. He whooped me, but whatever. I shot this video last weekend with my friend Brandon’s kids.
“I’m morbidly obese!” The very slightly pudgy comedian onstage said. I was at The Comedy Store last night with Stan and my brother Richard in the Belly Room awaiting our friend Brandon Phillips’ standup. “If you don’t believe me,” The dude onstage continued, “go look at the other gays on Santa Monica Boulevard.”
Driving through West [...]
“Bel, do you wanna picnic at Greystone Mansion?” Christine had called to ask. “Do I? Of course!” I said even before I knew that Greystone Mansion was used in the filming of The Big Lebowski and Batman and Robin.
Greystone Mansion is one of those gorgeous pockets of Los Angeles abounding in beauteous wildlife such as [...]
I was talking to my little middle-school niece on the phone yesterday. I’m in Los Angeles, and she’s in Florida so I don’t get to see her much. She told me she broke up with her boyfriend and a minute later he’d changed his Facebook Status to say “single.” When she told him she wasn’t [...]
Life just seems to get more and more hilarious. Today I was at Planned Parenthood on Vermont in Los Angeles for a regular checkup and yes, to obtain some sort of birth control.
Randomly I picked up the tattered In Touch magazine sitting dog-earedly on a chair to my left. Brad Pitt. Angelina Jolie. Bel Baca. “Whaaaaaat?!” There [...]
“When did this happen!!?” I told Kelsa on the phone as I dillydallied through CVS Pharmacy near the Wiltern. “Nailpolish costs $10 a bottle in Los Angeles? Whaaaa?” I always bought the $1 Wet’n Wild polish in Florida. Of course that was several years ago. This was yesterday when I was in CVS to buy [...]
