Posting about your supposed miscarriage? You seem to want to bring people to your blog pretty desperately. 7:34 am in a board meeting having a miscarriage? Hmm you would not have made it to any meeting let alone walk around having a miscarriage & if you were which I call bull*hit then you have very little respect for yourself & your children. Miscarriage is painful both emotionally & physically & to broadcast it as if you were taking your mornung dump is not a professional nor respectful thing to do. Taking something serious & making a joke if it is pretty immature & any advice you have to offer is F**ked up & you simply are a desperate attention seeking selfish person. You owe an apology to women who have experienced loss & losing a baby to a miscarriage is not a relief & abortion is not birth control! Get a grip & think how lame your twitter is. You are like a child - negative attention is better than no attention. Why not do something good & focus on gaining respect & attracting people who will respect you & your "business" Grow up!

When I started my company it was only my husband and me, which was okay but not great. Then he continued with his full-time job and I hired women, one after another - at one point there were 8 of including me - not good with that many women - oh ya in my studio/used to be a garage. Now I am going to have to go back and read every single post - great blog! Oh my god – too funny. When I started my company it was only my husband and me, which was okay but not great.

Keep it up - just a matter of time of time before even that loses its edge. Your are in your 40s, aren't you? Penelope,

This is as good as reality TV. I think I will stick to the khakis. Not only are black shoes OK, they are better than brown! You wear the khakis with the black shoes and a black belt and a nice white shirt. Wear your BEST black loafers and they will "pop" as they say on the design shows. This is a timeless look in LA but may not go over in Madison, except on a muggy yet bright summer day. Try it! Wow. This is as good as reality TV. I think I will stick to the khakis.
