I worked my first day of full-time at the Magazine today (oh, did I mention that my copy chief switched with me so he could work part-time and I could work full? He's still chief, but now I get benefits!). It went better than I expected, which was nice. There's always a learning curve when getting used to a new section and I psych myself out

I keep stopping to read bits out loud to Mike. It makes me grin like a nutbar on the train. I love it so, so hard. I haven't loved a book this much in quite a while.

You are so great.

[petit_chou]

No YOU are! Also, are you aware of the number of people who still have photos of you as a kiddo tacked up here at work? That's staying power, lady.

Great job on all fronts!

[petit_chou]

For the win!

YES BENEFITS.

Oh, keep me posted on your Mad Men progress - I am obsessed. Such a good show.

[petit_chou]

Benefits are AWES. I now have vision! Too bad I bought two new pairs of glasses for a frillion dollars late last year.

So far, I'm piqued. We'll see if I get obsessed.

Oh, can I name-drop Matthew Amster-Burton? We're totally BFFs. Here's a pic of us going to a Yankee game ten years ago. (Also, a rare pic of me with a ponytail, although you can barely see it.) Next time I see you, I'll permit you to shake my hand.

WHAT?!? How the? What the? Also, nice locks, Smacky.

It's a long, nerdy story that I don't care to share here… ask me next time you see me, if you remember.

I'm pretty sure there aren't any pictures of me when I cut my hair down to 1" all around, or from when I had a beard.

[petit_chou]

I will ask, don't you worry.

BEARD?!?
