In honor of Jen fixing my colors ...

Posted by: Kim

... I bring you, photographic evidence that Jen exists!

The other weekend we got obscenely and awesomely overdressed for the bar we were headed to and drank two fishbowls, encountered a waitress who was not wearing pants, and had a cab photoshoot, and then Jen told off a couple of randoms who made the stupid kissy noise at us circa 4:30-ish in the morning.

Jen was wearing an adorable purple Alice + Olivia dress. When we woke up one of the straps was broken and the cat was using it as a bed. I was wearing an amazing Zara cocktail dress. When fishbowl #2 arrived, I quite literally picked up the decorative-and-functional alligator it included and poured its contents (grenadine) directly onto said dress instead of into the fishbowl.

It was that kind of night.

Anyway, here's Jen and a fishbowl WITH PINK AND BLUE STRAWS OMG THE WORLD HAS CAUGHT ONTO US!


Shame you can't see her excellent dress. Or boots. But ask the Queen of the Shopping WIN how much she scored that Chanel watch for ;) It's impressive as always.

Happy weekend. Steer clear of fishbowls.

Kim, I Fixed Your Colors!

And now, to quell my rage, a cute animal picture:

Dear John McCain, Ask Me How Much I Care About "Your Health"

Posted by: Jen

Now I know this is a few days late, but I've been busy and I'm extra cranky right now because I just ran 20 miles in preparation for my next marathon. So seriously J. Mac, that was the biggest asshole move of the century. Thanks for telling me you could give a shit about my health -- as if we already didn't know from your stellar healthcare plan -- but I'm really glad you could drive it home and say you don't care about women. Please remember you are REALLY old and fuck you. xoxo, Jen

ALSO!

Dear Sarah Palin, stop shitting all over anything that's not small town America and then coming to New York City and saying "9/11! The Terrorists! USA USA USA!" Seriously, I refuse for you to criticize me for having all of my teeth and knowing how to read for one minute and then trying to unite with me over our (non)mutual hatred of the (OMG!!!1) terrorists the next. It's disgusting, cloying and if we ever met, my thoughts on you would be much more direct and succinct, that's to be sure.


I'm totes an American, so stop saying I'm not to rally to your stupid base that probably doesn't even exist. I hate the fact that you have a Joe Six Pack and a Joe Plumber and assume that your average American is a dumbass white male redneck, and he should be proud of it. All citizens should be insulted because I don't believe that your average American is really like that -- they are much smarter than you give them credit for. Also, last time I checked I wasn't part of the state trying to succeed from the US. xoxo, Jen

PS: Dinosaurs and humans NEVER co-existed, and most "average" Americans can tell you that, dontchaknow.

All Jess can say is: "Comeback kings!"

Not what I predicted AT ALL, but I will take it!

Do or Die!

Posted by: Kim
(For real ... the colors? I am ON A DIFFERENT COMPUTER EVEN!)

No liveblogging tonight.
Prediction: Long, low-scoring, tedious, nerve-wracking game ...
And that's all I'm saying.
Okay, I put my faith in the Sox, obviously.

Spring = Flowers and Headbands. Well. Who Am I To Disagree, Actually?

Posted by: Kim
(... ... where are the colors? I am supposed to be pink.)



So, while I was watching Boston get all massacred last night, apparently Lauren Conrad was showing her Fall '09 line at something called 'LA Fashion Week' (oxymoron, y/n/maybe?). I cannot find any photos from the show, but according to the comments on the Fug Girls' article about the affair, it included flowers and headbands. You'd think I'd be intrigued, but, I'm still put off by her 'designs' up until now including jerseys, and ... jerseys. And jerseys.

Apparently she and Heidi may or may not have made up, though! And it sounds like this mystifying 'LA Fashion Week' is just as glamorous and prestigious as you'd expect, complete with dumpsters, reality tv guest lists, and, you know, less-than-designers. Read about it here!

But Lauren did wear the above, and looked very pretty. The flower-child May Day pagan-ista headband is at least slightly less obnoxious than the similar ones the All-Bright hipsters have been sporting with their American Apparel dresses, so, there is that.

Dan And Serena Do A PSA For Obama!

Also, via Salon's Broadsheet: GG Author on which character most resembles Barack Obama: "According to author Cecily von Ziegesar, it’s none other than Blair Waldorf. 'Barack and Blair are both beautiful, passionate, ambitious dreamers. They won’t stop until they get what they want, which gives them a bitchy, sexy edge -- and we like them like that.'"
