The Lo Zone

A groovy place in cyberspace run by author Lolita Files. Come on in. Bring some Pepsi.

Lo Fun Fact #1

"Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. For as long as she lived, she had no idea there was anything sexual or seedy about being called "Lolita".

Lo Fun Fact #2

I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes (although obviously I can't eat fried chicken nearly as much as I'd like). If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Church's (that's right, I said Church's) and a pair of Christian Louboutins.

Lo Fun Fact #3

Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi. Better yet, how about not showing up at all?

Lo Fun Fact #4

I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you or take a long time to return your calls. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? (Exception: I will happily take all calls related to business or to share fun/exciting/major news. I'm just not one for jawing on the phone just to be jawing.)

Lo Fun Fact #5

I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!!

Lo Fun Fact #6

I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. I'm always on my laptop and connected to the internet as I work and when IM's pop into my screen out of nowhere, they break my concentration and often startle the sh*t out of me in the process. So don't do it. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position.

Lo Fun Fact #7

I have ~~four~~ ~~five~~ six wonderful, slap-happy dogs and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. I had a bird (a Roller pigeon that I rescued in LA on New Year's Day in 2004) named B-Bird (what? that's a good name!) who passed away in February 2009, which broke my widdle heart in half. He loved me so, as I did him. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs and cat, we'll be instant friends, and if you ask about B-Bird, I'll probably hug you (unless you smell...wash first). If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have ~~four~~ ~~five~~ six dogs and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond.

Pardon the Interruption

Ahemm (clearing my throat), Can I have your attention please. You back there in the back, can I have your attention please. Thank You.

I've gathered you here today to share a bit of news. Ms. Files is taking care of some business matters and will return as soon as possible. In the meantime, she has asked that you excuse her presence. She is hoping to return soon, maybe tomorrow, maybe not until the beginning of the week. Nevertheless, as soon as it is humanly possible, she will return with more of her enlightening commentary, the continuation of Really Good - Really Shitty, and all the other material that you have come to love at The Lo Zone.

In the event she can't return by tomorrow,

I will once again be your gracious host.

I know, I know, but love me anyway.

Peace....2 Fingers

Shai, Lo and I go back to about '91.

She was teaching me the blogging ropes and gave me access to her blog pre-The Rich House. She never retracted it, so when she found her self with less time due to traveling with "Love In The Nick of Tyme", I did her a solid by jumping in and holding down the spot.

Lance, what was that tirade all about. I told you about drinking in the middle of the day.
