Roid Rage!

I think I mentioned that I got strep throat in my first week here, I had to go to the doctor, he gave me antibiotics, Brian thought I was playing up, I got the runs, etc. etc. Well, anyways, the doc wanted me to come back in to do some blood work, and today, I went in again for the results...

...and everything’s pretty much fine, I mean my DHEA is a touch low and my bad cholesterol is a tad high, but that could all be because my TESTOSTERONE count is at rock bottom lows!!! When he told me, I felt like he kicked me in the nuts - but that really wouldn't have made a difference would it? It's not like I'm shooting blanks or anything, but it could definitely explain why I've been getting tired more quickly and my sex drive has diminished over the past few months. He explained that low testosterone can lead to problems like osteoporosis, even Alzheimer’s, and of course, a reduction in lean muscle mass!!! Shock! Horror!

Unfortunately then, to combat this, he's prescribing me roids!!! Oh dear! How awful! Legal steroids. A tragedy! How will I cope? I'm gonna have my own little 6-week mini cycle with no PCT needed! I'll be hitting the weights hard I can tell you... I can't wait!!!

But in the meantime, straight after this, I went to the gym. And although I saw Lee Tergesen pumping some serious iron (Beecher in OZ - where's Chris Meloni when you need him?) I felt like I had this "Low Test" sign plastered all over my face and shirt. The big boyz could sense I wasn't "all man" and I was going to be dropped kicked out of Gold's: Hollywood by nancy-boy Adam.

Of course, that didn't happen. I did arms. Got a serious pump. Had my shake, and there you have it. It's the Dancing with the Stars finale tonight, so I'll "girl out" then. I'm still smarting over the fact that Rachel Hunter got eliminated early and unjustly!!!

Do the D!

So we still haven't seen Rachel Hunter up at Runyon, but last night we did bump into Kathy Griffin and Mark Feuerstein.

Now everyone knows Kathy from the legendary sitcom Suddenly Susan, as well as her numerous appearances on Hollywood Squares and Celebrity Mole. Bentley was all over her, bouncing up and down to lick the chemical peel stuff off her face. In our brief interaction Kathy seemed very genuine and down to earth, and she thought Bentley was adorable... but then again, who doesn't?

You will have noticed that Kathy has her own 'official' website. Poor Mark does not. I know you're all thinking, I know the name, but can't picture the face! Who the hell is he? Where's the link so I don't have to bother googling him myself? Mark is that cute short sitcom guy, with the sexy nasally voice, who dies in the bike accident at the beginning of either Practical Magic or Woman on Top or something similar. I know you want to go google him... go on now and have a good Independence Day - Bah! Humbug! It's not my holiday!
