Lessons learned by RT so you don't have to.

If you wash a faux chanille blanket with the rest of your darks, your clothes will still be covered in fuzz no matter how many times you rewash/put them in the dryer. If you wear the fuzz covered pants to work out in, you will slightly resemble a muppet when you take off your clothes.

Why do you take off your clothes while working out?

I passed a place called Fang Laundry a couple of weekends ago. My companion suggested their slogan should be "We take a bite out of grime." I'm thinking of making t-shirts. I'll make millions!

There's only one Ethiopian restaurant in Houston, and it's in the middle of nowhere (i.e. outside the loop). I haven't had Ethiopian food since I left Berkeley.

When it happens during a "deposition" it usually isn't fake. See, e.g., Rockefeller, Nelson

And [wrinkling my nose] my hair does look better with the Bumble shampoo. I did the whole Kiehl's and Fekkai shampoo [and redken and joico and biolage but whatever]

Shit, even TM agreed I have nice long healthy thick hair. way past shoulders.
You take it all so personally! I have no idea what you do to your hair. The chunky highlights comment, as originally made, had nothing to do with you, except as a companion piece to Fekkai. And hey, if you're going to advertise every label in your (literal or otherwise) closet, be prepared for a little snap.

And I don't know who's hot right now. I did Garren in 1994 and then Brad Johns (home of the "buttery" blonde - can I namedrop, too? I used to chat with Carolyn Bessette Kennedy there, before her untimely demise) until that imploded (I had friends who killed to get into Fekkai before it got all inundated with B&T, nttawwt), then I followed my stylists to Oribe, which I didn't love, but I did love Adrian and Aandre. Eh, see how pointless and dorky it is to advertise all that? But since you do, it's fair game for comment. Snarky isn't a one-way street.

And speaking of pointless, what is the point of telling me your hair is way past your shoulders? Mine is long, too. Now, have I impressed with my hair-growing ability? I sure hope not.

There is much fine dining outside the Loop. In fact, you have to go outside the beltway to get to some of the best barbecue and Asian.

The internet, of course.

The Chinese lady around the corner does a good job. It's cheap, and she doesn't even attempt to make conversation.

I like your boots, though. (Does that help?)

I got over enjoying conversation with haircutter/stylers when one of mine here mentioned that his parents were turning 40.

so are you like, a coked out bottle blond as well? and, fwiw those publicist fashionista types?? they are the real odious ones here in NYC not some like passive agressive paralegal all conservatively dressed. I moreso look like I'd rip your face off in a deal or if you cut me in line in Starbucks more than vapid.
