Okay, so Thursday, Mr. Rilch and his “boss” on the campaign were on the radio today. He brought Izzy, because it’s an American Experience, and when they all walked in, the host said, “Hi, [boss’s name]; this must be [Mr. Rilch], and WHO’S THE HOT BABE?!!” Augh. When I was 17, I would have been mortified. Izzy says she’s okay with it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if she’s secretly thinking, “So it’s true what I’ve heard about American men: women are to be leered at.” Then again, that’s what many Americans think about Italian men. Oh, and on the air, he mentioned that “these two gentlemen are here with a beyooooootiful Italian exchange student.” Well, what the heck; she’s probably in for a lot of that.
Anyway, in the morning, Izzy will be off to her first day of school. School starts relatively early. She has to be at the bus stop earlier than that. And according to her, she’ll need at least an hour to get ready. Not sure what that means: a full workout and shower, a long makeup/hair session, or both? Speaking of which, I saw her layout of haircare and skincare products, and all the packaging is either pink, black, white, or some combination thereof. No other colors, so it’s like an art installation. Hey, maybe when I get going on this art experiment, I’ll ask her if I can do a still life!

Our cats have been outside 24/7 for the last three weeks or so. This will continue until the weather cools off. They seem more comfortable, and we’re saving on kitty litter.
Does anyone here play on Sporcle.com? If so, are you in any tournaments? I’m currently riding high in the Simpsons tournament. Not so much in the crossword tournaments; I have all perfect scores, but some people are amazingly fast, not to say suspiciously so.
