Well the weekend work trip was...work. But not without its entertaining moments. First, can I just say that I'm so so so glad that I was bunking with the Nay-Nay and that things are going well with Mr. Fixer, because let me tell you child Mister Man was in close proximity the entire weekend and something would have definitely happened otherwise. As it stood, I'm pretty sure he shagged the cute girl at the hotel who is in charge of suites, and she must have been a satisfied customer cause he got a bump up.
Anyway, as you may have guessed, it's not super easy being around Naomi
24 hours a day. Sure, I packed an extra bag filled with makeover
ingredients just in case she was in the mood to be Eliza Doolittled—
and I did talk her down from a frosty coral lip stick decision in favor
of a nude gloss. But for the most part it was just meeting after
meeting all day, and then we had to go back to a teensie hotel room
TOGETHER.
A couple factoids for your Wikipedia updating pleasure:
1.
Naomi sleeps in frownies—which for the uninitiated, are little
stickers that supposedly protect ones face from wrinkles by holding the
skin still whilst one sleeps. Considering them? Honey, I hope you are
single, cause I woke up in the middle of the night, and I tell you
what, that sticker-book mug scared the bejesus out of me.
Oh and PS: if Naomi's face is any indication, they aren't super effective.
2. Naomi does the original Jane Fonda workout every night before
bed. She had it on her laptop bless her heart. I had no idea it was
even possible to get a DVD of that thing—think sweat bands and the
flattering shiny-thong-over-the-leotard look. I went ahead and did it
with her just for giggles. It was actually awesome.
3. Naomi listens to a home-made positive affirmation tape every
night before bed. Luckily she did this wearing headphones. Unluckily,
the headphones leaked. Think, "You CAN,do it, You Will do it, you ARE
doing it (cough, cough), there is nothing you CAN'T do, there is no
mountain you CAN'T climb," rinse repeat for 20 minutes.
