Metrosexual indeed. The real problem is almost every one of his rooms is going to be a burnt orange refrigerator in five years.

He drives me nuts with his ****ing brown. That's all he uses. Brown brown brown. Dude needs to learn that there are lots of pretty colors in this world. I don't particularly like the fact that he has to use stuff Pier One because, quite frankly, Pier One is ass and I wouldn't be caught dead buying a single thing in there, but I understand that they're sponsors and he's stuck with their fugly ****. Given time and the right stuff, I'm sure he could kick something great out.

Ever seen Design On A Dime? Good gawd, my soul weeps whenever I see it. Don't paint up and down, paint in a W!

Maybe she uses because of nerves, she did say she has terrible stage fright..... maybe it mellows her out so she'll be more relaxed or something

I haven't been to enough shows to be able to tell myself. Is there a big difference in performance, mood, etc, when she's stoned? (I know this off subject)

Brown, maroon, and minty green. That's about all I saw first season - which is all I watched of it. That and the painting different walls in the same room a different color. God help me. Maybe in a tiny dump in NY to make it look like there is a different space - maybe. Drove me bat**** anyway.

Never seen Design On A Dime. I did that enough early in my career and am over it. Why would I wanna watch someone else do it ?

I know she does a shot of tequila every night before she goes on stage, or at least she has said that. She has never mentioned the Mary Jane; it would be interesting if someone were to ask her about that. C'mon DJ's and interviewers, ask Stevie if she tokes up every now and then!

I'd be selling her Avon and mark. I'd recommend the beComing line to her because it's more "high end" and all natural ingredients and more expensive (I can't picture her buying a jar of face cream on sale for $5). The newest Unflawed cream is awesome. There are only two other companies selling anything similar to it. It's very cool stuff. I know for me, it made me remember my hands really did look younger (I had forgotten!). It's nice to see my ol' 18 year old hands back again. It works nicely on the decolletage area too!

Goodbye sun damage.

She could also pick out things like rhinestone thong undies, candles and incense. Even a chakra candle set. And I think she'd look cute in the crystal flip-flop sandals from mark. right now with some jeans on. There's other lingerie. And jewelry, even real diamonds. Room and linen sprays in nice scents. And maybe a Hello Kitty watch, or Pink Panther? (hee-hee!)

And they were the first large company to stop doing animal testing, so that's a nice plus. I am sure she likes to catalog shop.

How about you guys?

Just don't put it on Ebay for god's sake!!!!!

dudden22 · #67 07-14-2005, 11:58 AM

I would be showing her some new Reeboks and Chiffon skirts at one job. At the other job I would be directing an interview with her.

ka10 · #68 07-14-2005, 11:58 AM

I'd be telling her the great perks of our checking accounts, loan rates, Visa Check cards, and online banking system. Maybe even show her how to pay all her bills quickly and easily online!

LOL! Really! Watch, now that I've said it she'll be my patient after she tours. It's actually a possibility because it's SUPER plush at this breast center here where I work in La Jolla. Lots of upper-class patients. You never know.

I had a patient tell me a few days ago (after seeing my Stevie desktop image) that she is friend's with Stevie's cousin who runs a MORTUARY in New York.

Anyone know anything about that? Creepy..

Out of everyone on that show, only one is licensed and only one is a member of ASID. I did like a lot of Doug's early stuff, though, and I think he's hot as all get out.

I like Thom and think he could do even more amazing stuff if he had more time. Sometimes he's a little predictable with the metrosexual-chic rooms, but overall he's pretty great. I'd hire him.

Doug's a dick. Hate Hildie too. Gen & Laurie were my faves, but I hardly ever watch anymore. Thom's OK.

Did anyone see Queer Eye the other night with the hairball guy who murdered the lobster? ACK!

I would probably be giving Stevie any needed immunizations or irrigating the wax out of her ears. Or talking to her about STDs. Or teaching her how to do CPR.

Doug and Hildi were my favorites back when it first started.

I haven't watched it in ages because it just got insanely stupid and none of it is realistic in terms of design. I hated Laurie, everything she did was the same French country/buttercream chic ****. Gen lost me after she randomly tacked faux gold leafing onto badly painted drywall and called it the centerpiece for the room.

Yeah, somehow I knew you'd hate Laurie & all her flowers & toile.

But you're going to pick on Gen when Hildie glues hay and moss on walls?

I thought she quit?

hauntedsong16 · #74 07-14-2005, 03:46 PM

I would be processing her mortgage payments. Not very exciting, unfortunately.

Stevie actually needs to buy me a fancy horse.

I love that. Hmm. Stevie needs to buy me a lifetime concert ticket to her shows.

I tech edit computer books so I don't think I could do a thing for her in that regard. However, I take good pictures, she needs a good photographer. I haven't seen any good pro live shots for a while. Fans have taken the best photos IMO. I'd pretty much do whatever she asked me to.
