I was so lucky to be invited to the Brooklyn Public Library's gala fundraiser three nights ago, and it was really fun. I was the guest of my friend, who is a lawyer, and whose boss' wife is on the board of trustees of the library and had bought a table at the gala. Soledad O'Brien (from CNN) was our MC and she kept shushing us, which was fine because we were all loud (not me, specifically, but the important people around me). Russell Simmons was a guest of honor, but he didn't know why and told us so. His brief, quite aloof, appearance diminishes my love for Run's House on MTV greatly. Otherwise, the night was pretty spectacular, with an open bar, and lots of money raised for the public library. Hurrah!! Fait accompli, and congrats & thanks to everyone that donated time and money to a wonderful public institution. And PS - Check it! look at all this free swag. Baller.
