I may not be cool, but I have cool friends
Season 3 of Project Runway premiered last night, and I was totally glued to the TV. It's completely different watching a reality show when someone you know--even vaguely--is on. Even the migraine that I haven't been able to shake for two days seemed unimportant compared to paying Very Close Attention to my damn TV.
I'm not even going to mention my feelings about the outcome of the show. I'm more than a little confused, which I guess is only proof that I'm no fashion designer. All I'll say is that there were quite a few things I liked, and I have high hopes that season 3 will be better than season 2 (even if no one can touch my love for Jay and all of season 1). And I was disappointed how little I saw of Katy's dress, but glad to see that I liked what they did show, which was no surprise since I really like the stuff in her portfolio on her website.
Instead of talking about the show itself, I'm going to talk about my friend Brad, from Oberlin, and his celebrity connections. I think anyone who knows me can attest to my disinterest in the entire concept of celebrity, the theories about putting people on pedastals, and most celebrities themselves. To this day, the only person I've ever cared about meeting was Amy Wynn Pastor, and that's because she's hot and ridiculously nice and my one true soulmate. Brad, however, has made quite the hobby of meeting and taking pictures of celebrities. Cool for him. I've never cared that much.
Until now.
He went to the Project Runway premiere party on Tuesday. I couldn't be more jealous. He took a ton of pictures, including a very cute one of Katy and himself together. Best of all, he took this picture of Katy and sent it to me.
Now I can pretend that I'm cool enough to hang out with Project Runway folk too. Right?

Eeee! That is just the cutest thing ever!
I missed most of the premiere last night, but will, no doubt, be able to catch it in re-runs at virtually any time of the day or not (if Bravo's past tendencies to re-run things to death is any indication).

Amanda, because I had the TV on for several hours last night and was trying to avoid the Fresh Prince marathon, and because I had it on again this morning while I did other things, I've now seen last night's premiere five times. I think you stand a decent chance of catching it. ;)

I found this website and ordered some custom notes as a b'day gift for my Aunt--and (if you haven't seen it before, that is) I thought it was the kind of site you'd like. I'm obsessed with thank-you notes and announcements, and I think y'all are too just a bit :-)
