Job Hunting and Celeb Spotting

People depress me. It just boggles my mind how much other people love telling me that they are not judgmental, it's just that we all should live our lives according to their values and beliefs. Right.

I'm not having a great day over in dark, rainy, gray, and cold New York City. My quest for semi-meaningful part-time employment that is not child care policy is not yielding many results. My drop dead date is late March before I crawl back to the child care policy field and beg for a job. I feel like if I do that, though, I'll never break free from the industry.

Anyway, on my way home from a temp agency "screening," I walked past Bryant Park. Being the clueless woman I am, I had no idea that it was fashion week. (Somehow, it always seems like there is some fashion event going on in Bryant Park, though.) A bunch of photographers and reporters were bunched up outside the big tent in which the shows go on (damn, fashion truly is a circus, now that I think about it...), so I paused to see what the deal was. Tyra Banks emerged through the crowd. I must say she looked stunning.

Merely spotting a celeb of Tyra's wattage was not enough to brighten my day, unfortunately. If the Weinermobile would show up near my apartment again, that would be appreciated. Who isn't cheered up by the sight of an orange and yellow hot dog vehicle parked across the street?

  1. when I finish writing my blog there will be a little something in it for you.


    Tyra looks like an alien to me. Her head slopes up in the back....or maybe its just the hair.

  2. What if Tyra was eating from the Weinermobile? That would make me very happy.

  3. *lol* I don't really like people - ever. They depress me too.. Especially men, and women... Kids are pretty cool - unless they aren't...

    I've never ever seen a celebrity close up. Once, I was shoved in some sort of airport where Ronald Reagan was speaking - I think I was in 6th grade on a field trip. And unlike you - I don't remember my outfit or haircut. I just remember being really cold, my feet hurting from waiting so long, not being able to see anything and wanting to go home.

    Oh, I did see Mickey Mouse at Disneyland a few years ago.

  4. If the Weinermobile were outside my house, that would make my day! The boys would be thrilled. Forget the ice cream truck, Oscar Meyer could do really well in my town!
