This is what I did last month, besides fill out forms

Last month is a blur, mainly because it seems like I spent the entire thirty days hunched over my desk, my writing hand turning into a cramped mass as I filled out form after form after form for things like summer camp, end of school activities and registration for Kiyomi to enter middle school. I would come to bed at night and Rigel would say, “What’s that smell?” and I would have to tell him it was a combination of ball point pen ink and cheap copier paper. To top it off, after delivering a packet of nineteen forms (I kid you not) to Kiyomi’s middle school I was informed a few days later that they had lost them. They finally did locate them after a couple of days, but only because I made a few hysterical phone calls to the main office and then showed up in person to show them my bloody hand that was still wrapped around my pen.

But more on that later - last month I also interviewed Kim Kardashian and Molly Sims for Genlux magazine! That was way more fun than filling out forms! Especially the part where Kim talked about O.J. Simpson, which was both fascinating and chilling. And Molly was fun, because she gave me the secret to her awesome hair and she didn't require me to fill out any tiny boxes with my name, address and emergency numbers. Luckily, by the time I had to type up the interviews I had regained most of the feeling in my right hand.

The issue is out on the newsstands and available at Barnes and Noble, but you can also see the photos and read the articles here and here.

  2. Was wondering what Kim Kardashian had to do with OJ - forgot about her lawyer dad. Creepy!

    Great articles by the way! Did Molly Sims eat anything?

  3. Wow, that's so awesome! Congratulations! Also, do the articles contain the secrets to Molly's hair? "cause I wouldn't mind being made privy to those.

  4. I still can't get over what a cool job you have!

    You should've had Kiyomi fill out those forms herself. "You want to go to middle school? Then get these back to me by 5."

  5. One of my friends went to HS with Molly. Small world!

    And oh HELL NO on the lost forms. Yikes. Glad they found them.
