Should I Reconnect With A Love Interest From Decades Ago?
When I received a letter from subscriber EA, I knew immediately I had to reply via video. I believe we have the start of something very interesting here. In the video I mention my idea for a great name for this segment – along the lines of “all things Mischievous” – something like “Spit it Out & Ms. Cheevious Will Answer.” That’s simply too long. I’ve relegated this new series to something very simple: Just Ask Me.
It’s a bit boring and over done (in the blogosphere), so I’m open to suggestions. You know what to do with your suggestions (hint: comments below).
This video is super unique in that 1) It reflects on the Golden Era of the Rockefellers, J. Paul Getty, and Marjorie Merriweather Post; 2) E.A. had some interesting encounters with Ms. Post’s granddaughter, whom he says, reminds him of Ms. Cheevious (awe); and 3) I went deep into my roots to imagine how my MOTHER (who would have been a contemporary to E.A.) would have answered E.A.’s question. That starts at 6:15. You’ll get a kick out of it. Enjoy!
If for some reason (via email or otherwise) you cannot see the video window above, click HERE to view it on the Ms. Cheevious site, or HERE for YouTube. Comments and more questions (as well as your own suggestions for E.A. are WELCOME.
DON’T FORGET TO SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS IN THE COMMENTS!
M.C. Nugget and I are off to Vegas for a friend’s fun birthday weekend. I’m sure there will be some manner of celebrity mayhem to report, and I’m up to the task!
Until then, have a glorious week – find a random stranger – smile broadly at them and make their day INCREDIBLE – that or simply wink and walk away – that should befuddle them at minimum.
Love you people!!!! Mmppphhhuuuhhhh!!!
xoxo,
Ms. Cheevious

Ms. Cheevious is the alter-ego of Lisa Jey Davis (former publicist, and television talent manager, current award-winning writer & author, & health and fitness pro). Though Ms. Cheevious has become known for humor via the blog and social media, offering a lighter and brighter look at life… the blog was originally a precursor to Lisa Jey's long overdue book "Ms. Cheevious in Hollywood" which offers a fabulous, funny peek into what really goes on behind the scenes in Hollywood… a Hollywood with Lisa Jey and her funny “serendipities” in it. Think Lucille Ball meets Chelsea Handler meets the girl next door (with a little chocolate and vodka). It depicts with hilarity the innocent mistakes Lisa Jey made when launched back into the big, bad single jungle, as an unassuming single-mother in the City of Angels. It’s also about the beautiful, interesting life she led while her loving, incredible sons kept her grounded and sane amid fantastic events, new friends, parties and field trips. It also shows the turmoil and heartbreak that comes with dating and single mom life. All blog content © 2015 Ms. Cheevious aka Lisa Jey Davis
Dear Ms. Cheevious,
Please allow me to comment forthrightly, personally, and formally. Shortening the section name is right. ‘Just ask me’ reminds me if the old bowery Fish Market joke: Sammy opens his market bearing the Sign “Fresh Fish Sold Here Today,” One by one suggestions come to shorten the sign. Why ‘Today’, what other day are people reading it? Why ‘Here’, where else are you selling fish? Why ‘Sold’, are you ever going to give them away? Why ‘Fresh’, you wouldn’t sell old fish would you?. And finally, ‘You don’t need to tell people it’s fish, they can smell it a block away. So, do you need to say ‘me’, who else would they ask on your blog? Do you need to say ‘just’, there are no alternative offerings to select among. Then what remains is simply “ASK!”. Explanatory subdued subtitle, “If Ms. Cheevious can’t answer, her mother can. BE BOLD” Now, qualifications: Ms. Cheevious’s brain is shared with a wise, sincere and sometimes quite amusing partner. She has had wide experience in living, surviving, and succeeding. She remains personable and unjaded, even managing to be a bit cocky (no pun intended) with regard to appropriate, tactful, and valid replies and suggestions. I think E.A. is happy. As for the section, what better source than other’s problems could there be for important material to build a fascinating energetic section with general appeal, especially with the Ms. Cheevious slant. Go for it in a video format framed in related text with some iconic closer, like for example “Don’t You Waste Time!”
All the Best Mischiefs (sic),
eaeme
Eaeme that was a LONG reply! haha. Thank you for your comments and for always sharing! XO
no have twitter mentality
You silly! And you looked just like your mom! I totally think EA should look up his old flame, that is, if his wife is now out of the picture. Anxiously awaiting the one-liner video…
Fun times, love you Laura
Well – except for the blue eyes and darker features. LOL…
That was great! You honored your mother really nicely – and gave great advice!
why thank you ma’am. thanks for reading and posting! xo
Whenever we wonder about people from our past it’s usually for a reason. I always try to reconnect if someone has been on my mind for whatever reason, if only to let them know I’ve been thinking fondly about them.
I have the same philosophy. Awesome!
Oh my goodness your “mom” was great! LOVED this video. What a sweet story and an exciting possibility.
Thanks Jewels! As always – you are a sweetie!
