Happy Birthday, Mom

Today is my mom's birthday and she looks fantastic!

Why I come to work every day

I schlep out of bed and drag my buns into work 5 days a week. Its crazy happenings like this that make me come back for more. Watch your office supplies when Sartoris is on a bender.

You had me at Airwolf

I was in love with Stringfellow Hawk. Seriously. Absolutely crushed out over the rogue pilot with the steely eyes. What was I, like 7 years old or something?? That is a pretty respectable crush when you consider my peers were head-over-heels for Kirk Cameron. Did you know that his salary for his work on Airwolf was the highest paid of any actor in American television, at the time? They couldn't have paid him enough, in my opinion! Face from the A-Team was also my boyfriend, but thats a blog post for another time...

If you aren't familiar with Airwolf then you better educate yourself!

The series's protagonist is Stringfellow Hawke (played by Jan-Michael Vincent), a loner who lives in a cabin in the mountains. Hawke is a recluse, spending most of his time alone with his priceless painting collection, and playing his cello. Hawke was one of Airwolf's original test pilots. He is called upon by Michael Coldsmith Briggs III (cryptonym: Archangel) of the mysterious 'Firm', a covert branch of the Central Intelligence Agency that built Airwolf, to steal it back from its twisted creator, Dr. Charles Henry Moffet, who has taken Airwolf to Libya. Hawke, with Santini, finds the aircraft, but does not return it. Instead, he hides it and occasionally flies it to carry out undercover missions for Uncle Sam, in exchange for assistance from The FIRM in locating his lost brother, St. John (pronounced "Sin-jin") Hawke, missing in action since the Vietnam War.

All Your Glitter Limes Are Belong to Me

Glitter Limes are sweeping the nation. What the smurf is a glitter lime, you ask? It is a decorative fruit slice that has been preserved and made sparkly. You can wear it as a pin, a necklace, or in your hair. The glitter star fruit is also quite chic.

Say No to Scurvy

Tag your bag!

Today's cool find = luggage tags from Honorable Mention. They have 47 different styles with your favorite 80's movie stars and pop singers on them. Your vital information goes on the back. Six bucks, people!!
My favorites include Poison, Huey Lewis & the News and Whitney Houston. Heck, they even have Olivia Newton John (eat your heart out, Jenelle!). What are the chances somebody else at Baggage Claim will have the Lionel Richie luggage tag?

See all of the luggage tags!

pStyle

Are you ready for this? Somebody has invented a way for ladies to, how do I say this, relieve themselves standing up. Its called the pStyle and it is made in Italy. Perfect for backpacking, traveling in Europe, concerts, etc. Doesn't it look like a shoe horn? The pStyle comes in 6 lovely colors and retails for $12. I know what I'm getting people for Christmas this year!!

Sherry Baby

Wow! I watched Sherry Baby tonight and was blown away by Maggie Gyllenhaal's let-it-all-hang-out performance. She is RAW. This execution was completely deserving of a Golden Globe but I know the competition was tough this year (Volver, The Queen, etc). I can't wait to see what Maggie does next...

Mr. Evil

He is the Ying to my Yang. The Jimmy Fallon to my Tina Fey. The Gaius to my Six. The Jim Halpert to my Pam Beasley. The Quentin to my Uma. You get the idea.

Barbizon Model of the Week

A few people have asked what the Barbizon is all about. Those of you who grew up in the 80's may recall their cheeseball, low-budget commercials. Looks like their marketing got a little bit better but they are and will always be ridiculous. The models I find are far superior to theirs anyway :-)

Love, Honor, and....Obey??

My best friend is getting married this year and I have the priviledge of being her Maid, ahem, Matron of Honor. Yesterday we went to try on the dresses. There was something very retro Madonna about her when she was outfitted in the veil, dress, etc. Sean Penn was the only thing missing. Thank you thank you for not having a train, Court!

Bouncing Baby Boy

Congratulations to my good friends, Eibleis and Carlos. They gave birth to an adorable baby boy yesterday, named Ruadhan (gaelic spelling and is pronounced Rowan). He was 8lbs and 7oz. It was cool that they didn't know the baby's gender ahead of time. I knew it was a boy :-)

Barbizon Model of the Week

In Mark's own words:
"Good Lawd! I'm hot!"

Satan's Bra

IT HAS ARRIVED!!! I finally received my beautifully evil Devil Bra from Mode Merr today. Three reasons to love it:
1. Nobody will expect you to be nice while wearing Devil Bra.
2. Devil Bra allows you to channel your inner imp.
3. Devil Bra separates the brave men from the faint of heart.
