If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I figured that would be a real battle.

Also I think it's funny that she felt Lyndsey should have won RW because I'm pretty sure she's the one who would have gone home had they lost.

I think that was mostly coming from a Mean Girl place.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was so hoping Sara would get sent home

Ugh, me too. Although I think what's so interesting about this season is how evenly matched so many of them are -- I don't like Sara, but I don't haaaaate her, and I don't feel like anyone is squeaking by at this point. And we're only half-way through! Or whatever it actually is.

Art Crawl!!!

I think it is just over halfway. We started with 16? Or they pared it down to 16, right?

I was convinced that Chris would be sent home because they had that little moment where he talked about his family.

Because books.

I don't know what it is -- I can't make myself care about this season. I used to watch it religiously, and I couldn't even tell you anyone's name this time around. I watch, but always end up doing something else (uh, usually on the interwebs), and I think last night's dinner was the first time I'd really paid attention in weeks.

On the flip side, I'm liking Runway All Stars so much more than I thought I would. I guess the lack of Tim and the usual judges is made up for by knowing the designers pretty well?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I'm getting really kind of fond of Isaac Mizrahi. Give him two more episodes, maybe one if it's really good, and I may lose interest in Michael Kors altogether.

Plus, wasn't he completely cool and awesome to our Jesse once? Kors has never personally done anything in person for any Buffista that I know of.

His people gave me a suit and a haircut, but (and?) he called my glasses Lesbian. But I did totally talk to him!

Which is totally a valid style if you want to attract the ladies. ...NSM if you're my college roommate, who was not, actually, into ladies, but everyone assumed she was.

Oh, I forgot about him! I do love Isaac Mizrahi always, so that's a total bonus.

I have, at times, wondered if my personal style was related to my lack of success attracting the fellas, but then I remembered I hate all strangers.

PR: It's funny how many of the designers are the age where their main Muppets reference is Muppet Babies.
