<p style="margin-bottom: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: &quot;Georgia&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;;">1. When I hear <span style="color: #4f81bd; mso-themecolor: accent1;">there's a new one of those "designers for" (enter name of some large affordable retail chain)</span>, I <span style="color: #4f81bd; mso-themecolor: accent1;">have to immediately go check it out. And delude myself it's market research. Technically, it's not even a lie!</span></span></p>

Maybe in a few years, I <span style="color: #4f81bd; mso-themecolor: accent1;">will have an apartment big enough for all my random stuff! I currently live in a very Carrie Bradshaw-esque NYC studio. It's totally adorable - and on an awesome block in a very hip neighborhood - but it's so tiny, I feel like those little mice running the wheel...and the lack of closet space is something out of Edgar Allen Poe.</span> </span></p>

I never thought <span style="color: #4f81bd; mso-themecolor: accent1;">I'd make a living writing about beauty and shopping...my two favorite past-times. I really feel like I am living the dream. Minus the closet space, that is.</span></span></p>

Blondes don't <span style="color: #4f81bd; mso-themecolor: accent1;">have more fun. If only they did! However, due to the stereotypes about us, we can get away with a whole lot more crap!</span></span></p>

Having a <span style="color: #4f81bd; mso-themecolor: accent1;">puppy</span> helps me <span style="color: #4f81bd; mso-themecolor: accent1;">have the best parts of motherhood without the actual labor/birth/rearing commitments. </span></span></p>
