So... I went to my first Toronto International Film Festival Gala last night... it was for Volver (one of our movies).  It had Penelope Cruz in it... I didn't get to go to the main screening last night... but I did get to go to the party...it was ok... it was at the Chanel boutique... wow... didn't realize that store was as big as it was... very nice too

so party started at 10:30... had a drink... went with one of the girls from work... was hoping to see SOME celebrities... it took a while before even THAT occurred... the first one to be spotted was Mark Holmes of Platinum Blond fame... Who doesn't love Platinum Blond... but the years have NOT been good to him... That's for sure.

Well, it's almost midnight... and what happens.... click click click... the flashbulbs go.... you are almost blinded by them... Now I know how our guests at TT feel.

Penelope Cruz walks in... well... rolls in more like it... cause of the 3 big guys she had in front of her... the director of the movie with his entourage behind her... and she is escorted up the stairs to the VIP section of the party...BUT... she had to walk RIGHT by us... we were 3 feet away from her... she is SOOOO tiny... but really beautiful!!  I was 1 degree of separation from Tom Cruise last night.... LMFAO...once she went upstairs... I knew it was time for us to go... I was getting tired... and I drove down.... wasn't sure if that was a mistake or not... 

OK folks, that's all for now...
