My office is on the same lot as Heroes. They weren’t shooting yesterday, but I stopped by the set.
That’s me if I were in a human cocoon- don’t try this at home!

Last night, I stopped by the W Hotel’s Whiskey Lounge for a champagne party.
As you can see, I had a bit too much fun taking pics against their faux French Riviera.

“Oui! La vie est belle!”

Doing some sightseeing, “Ooohh Ahhh!”

xoxo, shira

FYI- This pic is not romantic, the Crumbs Cupcakes we’re holding are a nice treat though. ha!

The blogging doesn’t stop here folks- I’ve just started a blog for my NBC show “1st Look LA”. I’ll be updating, “SHIRA’S LOOK” weekly, so be sure to put it on your to read blog list! This week, I give my tips on where to find romance in the city of angels!

A little backstory- we were at the L.A. radio station, INDIE 103.1 FM, shooting a segment the other day for our music show airing this Saturday on NBC. My producer thought this was hilarious and put together a little outtake clip from my interview with reggae host and Grammy award-winning producer- Native Wayne Jobson. Lets just say this is why I’m not a voice over artist- ha!

Omg! I was in my office on the car making a claim with a car insurance company and there was a freakin’ earthquake! My first and it was a 5.8!!!

Here’s some reactions from my office right after it all went down. Oddly enough, there was a Transformers audition right next door. Pretty funny!

What happens when a host/geek and an internet hacker can’t fall asleep? they go crazy on the internet. see below- this is for real! i swear! Here’s the link to see for yourself, but I grabbed the image because it will probably be edited back to normal soon.

This week’s episode was all about enhancing your romance. I stopped by the set of Days Of Our Lives to get their tips on love.

Thanks to Michael Arrington for the pic in the TechCrunch blog this AM.

After a few hours of sleep, I’m back and ready to rumble in San Fran.
My fellow Canuck and blogger, Duane Storey, has been doing a 24-hour blogathon for charity starting last night at 10pm and has been getting friends to do guest entries- so here’s my contribution.
Last night at the Techcrunch August Capital Meetup, they had this great booth for a company called Etchstar, which engraves phones, laptops, etc with the insignia of your choice. Check out the pics below of my crackberry getting branded and zenned out. Thanks to the lovely Karina Grotz for the pics!

BTW- I was definitely the black sheep last night sans Iphone. Made me feel like I should take the leap and buy one. Hmmm decisions, decisions…

Video blogging the process. Watch my video blog at the top right corner for all the action from last night.

Hanging out with da boyz. Including from left my friend and Doctoc.com founder (and the guy who got me out for the event) Jason Nazar and his Scribd competitor. I made sure they didn’t get into a brawl.
