• Maybe careers aren’t something you can really plan for. They just sort of happen, like brown eyes or flat feet.

Apparently stewardesses and sweatshop workers and I enjoy a lot of the same interests and activities.

• We are talking about mutated women, the result of cruel genetic experiments performed by fashion designers so lacking in any sense of human decency that they think nothing of putting their initials on your eyeglass lenses.
