Embrace Your Paste

Today was what I considered the first day of autumn, even though it has officially been so for over a week. It was in the low 40's this morning, I wore fall colors, bundled up a bit... Along my walk to the metro, I spotted a pantyhose-less woman in a skirt and her legs made me think to myself--from this day forward, no man, woman, or child can be pardoned for streaky, uneven fake tans. It's called Buy Yourself Some Opaque Tights.

Baked Alaska

I hopped in a cab at Reagan National Airport last week on my way home from a business trip. I told the driver my address and the best route--right off Alaska Ave. He turned around and said “No way, I don’t go that way.” I thought “what the F?, taxis have to drive you anywhere in DC from the airport." I asked him why not. He said “I don’t want to go anywhere near Palin territory.” We both laughed, and I gave him a big tip at the end.
