THE DRUNK
Have you ever wondered why I like to drink? You don’t even KNOW ME, so just SHUT UP. This is a bio about ME. In addition to this blog, I’m going to learn to make wallets out of duct tape, and sew cats pajamas for cats. So tune in. There’s some smell in here, like a campfire of fancy furniture.
Alabama Vanderhoff is a writer/producer who drinks in Los Angeles with her husband and two cats. Her drink of choice is alcohol.
THE INFILTRATOR
The Infiltrator: She might be your best friend or your worst enemy. You know her well, you swap hookup stories, she invites you to brunch, you do karaoke every Tuesday night… Beware, though; when she suggests you have just one more drink, or dessert won’t kill you…what is she really saying?? Think about it, no one is safe…

THE HOT MESS
The HOT MESS is a hot mess who lives by herself (you’re welcome) and lives by the credo, “Vodka is bad, but feelings are worse!” She loves making lists, quoting Oprah, putting her first name with her crush’s last name, deciding what to name her future children, and of course, smoking weed, which she realized may have killed any viable eggs she has left. When not watching The Real Housewives (all cities, she can’t choose a favorite) The Hot Mess fancies herself a writer and future wife of Ryan Gosling. Or her landlord, he’s really nice to her. As an avid facebook stalker herself, The HOT MESS knows you might want to look her up under her given name, Corey Podell.

PARENT-NOIA
We are Laura and Murry Baria. Our daughter is The Bitch. Things you should know about us:
1) We are the Sikorsky of helipcopter parents. What else could possibly explain our presence here?
2) You know how some people think no one is good enough for their daughter? Will you report us to CPS if we hint at the opposite?
3) We love our dogs. A lot. Please don’t tell The Bitch about our will…..
4) Daddyo spends hours every day trying to teach his dog to say, “I love you.” Mamacita tunes them out while trying to teach her dog to woof.
5) Bio notes: Mamacita played singing animals in children’s theater for an entire decade forever warping The Bitch’s (and a legion of other children’s) enjoyment of live theater. Daddyo was the local Santa Claus for an equal number of years utterly destroying the magic of Christmas for The Bitch, her brother, and all their friends.
6) Mamacita writes poetry. She is a doggerelist. Daddyo writes funny legal briefs, and wears them, too. Ba da dum.
7) We are patient listeners, to a point. Wine, yes, whine, no.
8) We are competitive. We like to win at games and parenthood. We like to, but, usually we do not. Our homespun motto is: Watch your back, Bitch.
9) We have verbal spewing disorder. Do not tell us anything unless it you wish to see it regurgitated on this page.
10) We thoroughly intend not to buy anything from the Bitch’s laughable Christmas list.
11) We both like to laugh. We’ve laughed at our daughter for twenty-five long years.
12) Sometimes in the dark of night, we wonder if, perhaps, the maternity hospital made a mistake and gave us the wrong comedian baby and that our true daughter is Chelsea Handler.

THE MANDADDY
ManDaddy, also known by his given name, Mike Truesdale, is the manliest daddy in all of Los Angeles. At least in all the grossest aspects of manliness and none of the cool ones like abs or log cabin building. Mike is also a comedian, actor and writer specializing in using his dumb man-ness selling things on TV for money. Mike is also an alum of The Groundlings Sunday Company, where he sometimes played dumb men in the Bitch’s sketches. Currently Mike hosts a variety show at The Groundlings Theater, Mike Truesdale’s Variety Verite. Mike is married to Eileen, The Vegan, and eats too much meat for her taste and together they have a daughter named Goldie who is better than you already.
