I love that she's begging her mother to come with them to Washington... she can be the First Grandma!

Manhattan Users Guide sent out her poem "On the Pulse of Morning" today.

Wheee! What a bunch of smart women! Respect.

And you know, people who photograph beautifully sometimes look really creepy and unnatural up close.

Yeah, I think there was some backstory missing on this whole bathtub incident. And if it were me trying to fall asleep, the splashing noises of my housemates in the tub wouldn't keep me awake...It would be the CAMERAS and BRIGHT LIGHTS pointed at my face.

@Diziet_Sma: I cross-stitched that onto a sampler and gave as a wedding-shower kitchen gift to a friend who loves Michael Pollan.

@jfk1624: I'm feeling concerned about her. It looks like she's gotten herself the New Face.

@BessieMaeMucho: I had the exact same reaction, and was coming down here to exclaim it.

Bwahahah Dita Von Teese's costume! It reminds me of the time in college when this super punk/goth kid in my Philosophy class borrowed his roommate's Abercrombie & Fitch gear and went decked out as a jock for Halloween. Hilarity!

I saw a couple of little cuties dressed in NYPD costumes posing for pictures with two real NYPD officers (one male, one female) in Prospect Park on Saturday. Adorbs!

I walk by J.Crew every day on my way to the gym/home. Sometimes I have to squint my eyes shut and walk really fast to stop myself from going in and buying everything.

@NefariousNewt, head of Robots for Obama!: @ineffable.me:

She's counting the charities to which she'll donate her $150,000.

Aw, I had the Samantha doll. I wonder where she is these days? Hopefully my mother won't try to sell her on E-Bay.

Women read everything, so pretty much anything that appeals to men will appeal to women. Vice versa is a bit trickier.

@MizJenkins: This book is fantastic. There are some disaffected hipster characters (and a Keith McNally stand-in), but it's about soooo much more.

@TaraIncognita: At my big multi-national publishing house, it is house style to not hyphenate it.

@bananastand: Eeeee! I saw him on Broadway in Rent! Love.

@Im Chuck Bass: Tons. She'll be this year's Amy Winehouse. There'll probably still be a lot of Amy Winehouses, too.

@SarahMC: My brother and his GF have a huge height differential, so she wanted to dress up in a way that accentuates the difference. This is why I love her: her first suggestion was an Ewok and Chewbacca, her second was Mini Me and Dr. Evil. LOVE that this girl was willing to wear a furry midget costume.
