I’m learning to use our fancy pants work camera so I can photograph at my own events.
This was one of last night’s Hors D’oeuvres, a bite-sized Croque Madame topped with horseradish mustard.
Or as my guests kept calling it, “Ma-DAMN!”

Breakfast. Last work event of the year!
(Peep out my work calendar in the background: “VACATION” is in all caps. I am not joking around!)

Today is breaking my heart.
My office has gone back to normal. I’m a wreck and everyone else is back to work, still chatting about the Senate vote.
I just asked my coworkers how my emotions can be on my sleeve yet they can possibly go on with this day.
Our 65-year-old out-and-fucking-proud assistant said it best:
“Amanda, we’re used to this.”

GPOYW: Not So Flattering Picture But Look! I Worked with the Brat Pack!
(This is from the gala a couple weeks ago. She autographed a poster that sold in the silent auction.)

Last night, Alice gave me her headband and my coworker remarked, “Aren’t headbands great? They’re like little tiaras!”
So we planned a tiara happy hour.

Hour 4 at the lesbian bar
Me: “Wait, trans people can’t marry?”
“No.”
Me: “THAT’S HORSESHIT.”

On the wheels of a dream
I was fortunate to receive Ragtime tickets from the producer and his partner, the playwright. I wrote a thank you card (I love handwritten notes) and am tickled pink to send it to them.
Thank you for giving me tickets to see Ragtime on Sunday. I saw the original show in 1999 around the time I’d decided to move to NYC. This show is very special to me and I thank you both for the opportunity to remember the impact that Broadway made on me at that time in my life.
I’m flooded with memories right now. A nice way to end the work day.

At the Jane Lynch talk last night. She was asked if any other Glee cast member is queer.
She answered “No” then corrected herself: “It’s not my business to air others’ personal matters.”

Molly Ringwald presented an award last night. I didn’t ask her to quote any lines from “For Keeps.”

Practical joke on our director. Who couldn’t use a little KY during the workday?

(Alice, I’d appreciate if you’d not tell the story about how I try on diamond rings as a hobby. I just really like shiny things :)

I don't have the heart to correct him
My adorable 65-year-old coworker keeps referring to my phone as a Raspberry and I can’t stop laughing about it.
He can’t decide if he wants to get a “Raspberry” or an “iPod” (he really means “iPhone”).

I am forcing my coworkers to do this with me.
What song should we do? (We are a rather boisterous bunch.)
