Mauve Power

Oooooh, Condi looks steamed! And you know what's so fabulous about being all pissed off and having to work with little people? OMG, what you do is dress all totally in violet and be f.i.e.r.c.e., fierce! Yay!

But, hello? Condi? I have a message to you seriously from outer space! Condi, honey, direct sunlight is no longer the friend it used to be:

Pssst! Condi, honey, keep it indoors and hire a new lighting director.

And here I was, thinking that October light was the most flattering of all. Well, I suppose I wasn't considering the subject.

Perhaps she's using that suit to send a message to her lavender gal-pal Bean!

To paraphrase Shakespeare in Taming of the Shrew: Fie, fie, Condi, unknit thy brow--before it gets permanently stuck that way and you need to get a Kerry botox job. And I agree with PSP--muted indoor lighting should be your new friend, sister.

Being charitable for a moment, which is very hard work as it goes against my nature, the swelling we saw in yesterday's picture has gone down significantly.

Poor Condi. With each passing day she looks more and more like a Boston Terrier.
