I left my heart in...Kansas City

Greetings! This week I have been frolicking in the "Show Me" state, on behalf of attending a glorified picnic (a.k.a. my sister's wedding), playing with frisbees made out of plates and catchin' them fireflies. First of all, let me just say that I like it here. And I don't want to leave. Why, you ask? Well, other than the awesome beef in Missouri, just inquire of any Seattleite at the moment, and they will tell you why: IT'S RAINING THERE. IN JUNE. Surprised? Me neither. But I am really getting used to the stifling heat here, and I was just getting over my seasonal depression. Ah well. Or, as the French would say, "C'est la vie". Actually, they probably never say that because it's the second most popular French phrase known to Americans (the first being "Voulez-vous couchez avec moi?"-- thank you Moulin Rouge). And we all know that the French hate Americans. Too bad, so sad.

Moving on, I've decided to combat pathetic weather patterns with a new trench from Burberry (when I earn enough tips to purchase it of course, by which time it may actually be fall). I visited a boutique in KC and tried this baby on for size:

Ah, the Burberry trenchcoat. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways:

1. So versatile, so classically chic.

2. Perfect for streaking.

3. Even more perfect for me, a budding reporter. Surely it will make a good impression on my future editor-boss types.

4. It's on sale ($650, down from $995).

Really, I don't have a choice. Or do I? Perhaps I'll ask the opinion of my many devoted readers. Not that I really care what you have to say. Or do I? I know, I'll stop.

And now, on to...

Favorite T of the Week:

Okay, so people may have to stare at your chest really hard with a magnifying glass to read this shirt, and then give you strange looks because that is like, totally OMFG. OR they may think it is hilarious and ROFLMAO. Based on their reaction, you will choose whether to be friends with this or that person. Yes, it's that easy.

Well, that's all for now my friends. I am off to bed on a fold-out couch. Lovely.
