star struck!

I am just swooning right now! Tonight, the Oklahoma Stonewall Democrats held a fundraiser featuring Kayne Gillaspie of Bravo's Project Runway. Kayne is from Norman, Oklahoma (just a few miles down the road) and has become an instant star due to his success on Project Runway. I was SOOO excited to meet him because I think he's fabulously talented and I want him to win. I bought a piece of art through a silent auction--it's done by Kayne and it's a drawing of a beautiful turquoise gown on a blonde model. It's amazing! He signed it and then wrote a personal inscription to me on the back! I almost fainted. Well, not quite...but I am so giddy right now. I just hope he makes it to top 3 and hopefully wins the overall contest! He said that this piece is an original, one of a kind. Wheeeeeee.......
Ok, so it doesn't take much to amuse me....but this was a great evening.

I'm not sure I'm perpared to see Chutney in a ballgown and pumps - although I'm all for the breaking down of the gender barriers! :) Nice picture, Chutney.

Sadly, I don't pay money for my tv so I've only seen part of one episode of Project Runway when I was at a friend's house. I can see why people would get addicted, but it's not my thing. However, if it makes you this giddy, I'm all for it!
