Ode to Pottery Barn
So, I've finally had a free minute to look through my mail from the week, and within the pile of circulars and credit card offers was sweet manna from the retail gods - the latest Pottery Barn catalog! I feel a little guilty about my love of the Pottery Barn. Maybe it's because I feel like I should love something more chic, more exclusive, more befitting of my aspirations of being an Interior Designer, places the average person has never heard mention of while watching HGTV. J. Batchelor. Janus et cie. Bernhardt. Maybe it's because it is such an overexposed retail giant, mass producing thousands of items marketed to millions of soccer moms. I'm like Phoebe in that episode of Friends when she gets mad at Rachel for buying that Apothecary table and then hates herself for falling in love with it. Guilty conscience be damned - I love Pottery Barn! And those fancy furniture people aren't sending me 150 glossy pages every few months to brighten up my life like my friends at PB. I want to live in a Pottery Barn catalog. That would be amazing. Maybe then my house would be clean... Anyway, here are some of my favorites from the latest catalog. Enjoy!

I think you are a brat for me reading this and starting... love you!
Reasons I love Adrianne!
10. She once left OJ in our fridge for so long that it turned from a liquid to a solid
9. She HATED our ex-roomie...no names mentioned!
8. She's gorgeous...AND nice!
7. She is the only person that could get away with saying "messy" and "anal retentive" in the same sentence
6. She once showed me her nipples once, completely inadvertently of course!
5. About 90% of my fondest undergrad memories include her as the main character
4.Every time I hear "Your Body is a Wonderland" I still laugh out loud
3. Did I mention she's gorgeous?
2. She can always make me laugh, even when being serious through Sarcasm
And the #1 reason...
1. We haven't talked in months because we lead very similar CRAZY graduate like lives, we both understand that, and I love her as much as the day I met her!!!
I think the only reason you picked the picture of the candles is because they have A's on them...
