Our Friend Clinton


Clinton Kelly from What Not to Wear has a website! I saw the link when I was digging around in SGM's archives for material to steal quote. It gets better, though.

Clinton has produced a line of clothing for Denim & Co., which is sold on QVC. In fact, his line debuted Tuesday at 10 a.m. I think it might repeat on Friday at 3 p.m., so I set the DVR in anticipation. (So yes, Papi, I am recording QVC; don't mess with it).

Anyway, Mr. Kelly is also making an appearance within 50 miles of my house. He will be at the Macy's in Pearland on July 31 at 6 p.m. You will want to call the r.s.v.p. line early, before the Chronicle's shopping blogger lets the cat out of the bag. (She told the whole universe about my favorite shop, too.) Because I am NICE, I will tell you to call 713-405-6975. The line isn't open yet, but it's not too early to start trying. And Clinton promises not to critique your outfit unless you want him to.

N.B. to Clinton: Tell your web designer that it is an act of aggression to have music play automatically while your site loads. Thx.

    Mamacita, my heart is pounding--you must document EVERYTHING! And tell him that I LOOOOOOOVE him.

    I will definitely look at his clothing line, even if it is from QVC. He would not screw a girl over!

    mamacita...book Roo & me a spot if you can. We're both enamoured with this power couple and meeting even half of them would make our summer! Lemme know how much for a ticket!

    Mamacita - please! Touch him for me. I know he's probably gay, but he is my secret boyfriend anyway.

    Mamacita, I think Clinton has to be every girls' dream guy. Cute, charming, witty and he loves clothes.
    Thanks for sharing the info about the website - I will check it out now!
    (Of course Stacy is brilliant also.)

Reading/ Watching/ Listening

 Reading: The Rules of Civility by Amor Towles. I didn't like it nearly as much as A Gentleman in Moscow . In fact, I liked it only barely enough to keep reading. Watching: Poker Face , on Peacock. Papi and I have enjoyed watching this, one episode at a time, and not every day. It's a little formulaic, but the sets and the guest stars are fun. I like that it changes scenery every episode. Listening to: The Beatles Channel, Sirius XM. Ever since watching Get Back , the Beatles documentary, I've enjoyed listening to them with new ears.

All About the Boy

I’m never sure how much personal stuff to write on this blog, but every now and then I feel compelled to share. And so right now, even though I’d rather be writing gift guides and assorted other nonsense, I’m just going to rant. Emmet has Asperger’s Syndrome. Look it up. It’s a disorder related to Autism, but sufferers are said to be “high functioning.” Just looking at him, you’d never know that anything was wrong. But if you spend some time with him, you’ll see that he has trouble with social functioning. Asperger’s sufferers (they call themselves “Aspies”) aren’t good at self-reflection, and they aren’t good at picking up on social cues. They're also (in most cases) uncoordinated, and they tend to have a variety of tics (physical and behavioral). On top of this, Emmet has an anxiety disorder. Emmet’s life is tough. He is in trouble constantly at school because of the little tics that he’s developed, and because of his anxiety, and because he is afraid of going to the bath
