One of my coworkers went to NY last weekend to see the gates, how cool is that? She came back with a swatch for me, a little orange square of Actual Gate Fabric, and apparently there are only a million of them out there. When she gave it to me, she said: “Because you’re one in a million.” Aw.

Oh, Project Runway! I have the final episode on now in the background. I cracked up at that first shot of Austin. In case you did not see it, he marched into the bar for the reunion wearing a cape and red lipstick. And when he removed his PIRATE HAT his hair was sculpted into a cap of perfect Goldilocks curls. And he is totally for real, with all of it.

I am irrationally attracted to Kevin, especially when he wears his pea coat with the collar turned up. I like his hair; it reminds me of the Beatles. I want to smoosh my face into it. (Into his hair, not into the Beatles. Sacrilege!)

I loathe Wendy. Duh.

Had I chosen the final three, it would have been Kara, Jay, and Austin, with Kara winning. Cannot believe Wendy made it instead of Austin. Hope hope hope that Kara does win, at least.

Can you believe the greatness? The second season of “The Golden Girls” is out on DVD. Hurrah! I love that Amazon wish list thingy. I just ordered a Pilates DVD and I am excited. I have a new scheme to do exercise videos at home from now on, since I have given up on my gym membership. It will be cheaper. Plus, I’ll actually, like, use them. So the plan goes. We will see.

Me: the fo-gram?
Boss: fo real
Me: fo shizzle

Me: lol

The janitor NEVER actually cleans; he just empties the trash cans, and sometimes, not even that.

Boss: do you think it would be bad to have a scotch during my last interview?
Me: no, this guy is my favorite so far. give him some too
Boss: potential sugar daddy?
Me: one-track mind!
Boss: the janitor is vacuuming in my office!
Boss: he’s under my chair!
Me: wow, your mess must have insulted him
Boss: I hope it was good for him
Me: he just lit a cig
Boss: I will laugh out loud if he tries to vacuum in jane’s office
Boss: she will throw his ass out

Do you think we’re going to get as much snow as they’re predicting? How is everybody’s week going? I apologize for writing such disjointed entries lately; things are crazy boring. Help me out, y’all. Feedback, stories, etc!
