Wow, friends. January is FULL of highs and lows for me. First, I was BEYOND delighted to be featured in WWD’s top ten beauty blogs. That same day, I found out that a very good guy friend of mine from college / ex boyfriend hybrid was having a child out of wedlock with some girl he’s been seeing all of five minutes. It was weird news to say the least.

Today, I was unpleasantly surprised to learn what a certain NYT contributer thinks of beauty bloggers… but then later, I found out that I was nominated for a Trendora.com Lifestyle Award! Trendora, BTW, is a fabulous online designer shopping site based in Luxembourg. I’d like to thank whomever nominated me (you’re a doll!) and Romy and Michele for drawing my attention to the importance of using the word “lifestyle” incessantly and even replacing the word “life” with it regularly. “I mean, look at our LIFESTYLE. Look at the way we live.”–Michele.

P.S. Tonight is the NIGHT I and fellow LOST fans have been waiting for since last May! I eagerly anticipate the premiere like you wouldn’t BELIEVE. My best friend Lee has the added bonus of being able to watch the show for the first time in 2008 on her BIRTHDAY! Happy birthday, doll. You are the wind beneath my wings 🙂 I’ll be back tomorrow with a recap/analysis. Don’t you miss those? 🙂
