A cause des garcons...

So a girl I was friends with in high school found me on MySpace...and sent me a message along with her friend request saying: "Wow, you look great." Um, did I look bad in high school? Cuz I pretty much look the same except for better hair. I mean I have always loved my hair, but since high school was in the 90s, we can all imagine the hair atrocities. Not as bad as my super-high awesome bangs during middle school but whatevs.

Anyways, so here is my funny little story from Starbucks this morning. My favorite barista (for those of you who frequent the 'bucks on Michigan Ave. that is right past
the Nordstrom building going South, it is the guy who always sings show tunes and what not). He is ferosh.

Me: I don't need a bag (I was getting water and a drink and a fruit and cheese thing)

Barista: Ohh I see (as I motion to my tote bag). Is it one of the Whole Foods or Trader Joe ones?

Me: No (holding it out for him to see). Its actually from an adult toy shop in Andersonville, that is women-friendly!

Barista: (laughs) If I designed that bag, I would totally make it dirty. I would be like Heeeeeeeey look at my bag!!

He is seriously awesome. We once had a conversation about Britney and how we love her song Gimme More.

Anyways, Models and Top Chef on tonight! I am reading rumors that Tyra has basically checked out of the show and doesn't get along with Mr. Jay (small orange man). Also, remember in the early days of Models, Mr. Jay didn't really have a function. How did he become so integrated into the show? Generally speaking, what are his credentials. And more importantly, why do I care?!
