Who reads this blog, anyway?

My dear readers, by now you all know to a certain extent who Little Miss Law is — or rather, what she’s like, what makes her tick, what pisses her off … you catch my drift.  Indeed, a good number of my readers have the *privilege* of knowing the “real life” Little Miss Law.

Yet, it feels sometimes like the playing field is a bit uneven, because I don’t know much about my readers.  Who the hell are you?  The only knowledge I have about my readers (aside from the usual suspects — aloha, Mom & Dad) comes from one of my favorite WordPress features, where you can read the search engine terms people used to find your blog.  Here are the terms people used to make their way to Little Miss Law this week:

“little miss law blog”  (YES!  I have a following!) 

“kathy the cartoon character” (Ahem, it’s Cathy with a C.  But if you are reading my blog I forgive you.)

“sighting ben mckenzie” (Glad to see I’m not the only celeb stalker.)

“triplets joke” (I wonder if this person liked my Siamese triplets pun.)

“wordpress theme” (Huh?)

“confessions office watercooler blog”

“Fashion dress blog” (Sorry to disappoint.)

“wear to court” 

“once a week my cat go crazy and attack” (Spray bottle!!)

“going to court heels” (Yes, they are called pumps.  ‘Nuff said.)

So, in a nutshell (help, I’m in a nutshell!  how do I get out of this nutshell?) my readers are crazy cat ladies (or ladies with crazy cats), lawyers, celebrity stalkers and gossip hounds.  Indeed, you’re my kind of people!  Keep reading!

Tomorrow I hop on a plane and fly to the beautiful island of Maui.  Snorkeling, hiking, lounging, eating…I wish I could just transport myself there instantly. 

I’ve also bought a few books to take with me, since pleasure reading is one of my biggest loves and it so often falls by the wayside.  They are:  The Guy Not Taken (short stories by Jennifer Weiner, author of Good in Bed and In Her Shoes); Saving Fish from Drowning, by Amy Tan (Joy Luck Club) and finally A Mighty Heart (the Daniel Pearl story, now starring Angelina Jolie).  I will update you when I return!

Though I know tears will be shed that I will be blog-free for a week, I just can’t imagine shlepping my laptop to Hawaii, so I will say goodbye for now!  But first I will leave you with the Ben McKenzie story that I promised you (since apparently at least one person cares).

It was the afterparty to the premiere of Rocky Balboa, which was actually really fun, not because the movie was good at all (I admit to never having seen the others, but this was a clearly over-the-top schmaltzy throwback to them, not in a good way), but just imagine a theater full of people chanting, “Ro-cky!  Ro-cky!”  Goodtimes.

Anyway, I was with my co-workers, who luckily know and love me.  I announced that I was going to go talk to Ben, and was heartily egged on.  He was sitting with Kevin Connolly (who I just noticed on IMDb was in Rocky V) and some other guys I didn’t recognize, no other girls in sight.  There was an empty seat next to him that I resolved to plop myself down in.  I marched in the direction of his table….then hovered nearby, unable to get up the nerve to approach him.  This went on for a while until I gave up and returned to my friends.  Luckily, I don’t think he saw me stalking him.

Soon thereafter, a beautiful brunette sat down in the coveted seat and they started chatting and eventually snapping pictures.  “That could have been me!”  I kept thinking for the rest of the evening.  The next day I went online and sure enough, I found this picture of Ben and the beautiful brunette.  I sent it to my friend C. and wrote “see, this could have been me!”  She responded, “Um, that’s the girl who plays Sloan on Entourage.”

Doh!  I guess my brush with celebrity wasn’t quite as close as I imagined.

Till next week….
