I Love me some Vintage Clothing!!!

Lovelies,  I have recently gotten hooked on AMC's fabulous show "Mad Men"!  And let me tell you - I am more twitterpatied about that show than I can tell you!

I love the story line, I love the characters, I love the cinematography and I LOVE THE CLOTHES!!!!!

I wish I could dress like Joan everyday - all those form fitting garments that say to the world "I'm a Woman - check out my awesome curves!"  Here's some deliciousness for you to feast your eyes on!

And don't we all just love how sweet Peggy looks on the show??  I'm pretty sure they make her more sassy in the second season (don't spoil it for me, lovelies -  I'm only on Episode 5 in the first season!) 

And let's be honest here: Everyone who wants to be Don Draper's mistress Raise Your Hand!!!  (My hand is up so far I think it's going to go through the ceiling!!!)  Hooray for 1960's drama -- now only if they would have some freakin' nudity!  (C'mon if HBO can do it, AMC must be able to pull strings to do it, right?)

Mamma Mia & Date #2

Lovelies,  I went to the Mamma Mia chorus call on Tuesday morning and knocked it out of the ballpark! 

For the pop/rock type of auditions I sing a certain TV show theme song which ends with a hat toss - and guess what?!  The two guys behind the table both pretended to toss their hats at the end with me!  Awesome, no?

So I felt good about that - they haven't called me yet though to offer me a callback...  Uugh.  Dating & auditioning seem to parallel in my life - when one area goes well, the other tends to follow in suit....  but last night was different!  I had a lovely date with no lovely audition.

It was date number 2 with the Engineer (not like a train conductor - like one who makes programs for computers dealing with financial analysis & things like that.)  

We were supposed to go to the Tribeca Film Festival to see "The Girlfriend Experience", but alas, we didn't book tickets in advance... SO - we got tix for "I Love You, Man" and used the Engineers iPhone (thank you Urban Spoon) to find a lovely little paella bar called Socarrat. 

 

It was AMAZING!  Although the wait was very long, the food was just fantastic as was the service!  This is what we ate:

And after our quick meal we saw I Love You, Man - and lovelies I was almost wetting myself I was laughing so hard!  Paul Rudd is so deliciously awkward!  Brilliant concept for a movie - brilliant casting.  I loved it all!

Then it was back home to Actoria to watch more Mad Men DVD's - I'm obsessed!  Just started Season One & can't wait to get the second DVD in the mail!
