I love you. You’re perfect. Never change anything except your glasses.

I’ve never needed glasses *yet* so everyone else’s glasses game is going to be so on point before I’m ever in it. I’ll die before I ever get zany/bold enough to go for anything but the basics. I should pre-plan my glasses plan.

Who am I kidding—I can’t even plan a doctor’s appt.

Truly MIND BLOWN about that the Neanderthal voice vid. I want a sitcom about that guys life. A struggling actor who gets cast for this cool BBC gig with a posh scientist lady, only to make high pitched Neanderthal noises. I'd watch. What a pilot. It'd be the new Ted Lasso. Also - big proponent of your glasses makeover show!!! As I can attest ppl need a trusted frame advisor. And I don't think this is just a show idea, this is a network idea -- it's HGTV but for clothes/personal attire. Thank you. I like this. I missed last week. Don't banish me.

michael justin sketchbook! haven't seen ted lasso yet, so can't comment on similarity of your neanderthal voice actor pilot. sounds.... intriguing, to put it POLITELY. Do love the big picture vision you have for my makeover empire -- set up some meetings with the studios!

Yes, you heard it hear first folks, Mike was a recipient of my glasses consultation service, a real transformation! if I remember correctly, the employee of warby parker was either just doing her job very well or hitting on you! Which makes one think, the reality show could even end in love!

Really invested in the acquisition of new glasses frames.... please keep the people updated, since your inspo pics are truly iconic. Also, I want to go in on this reality show pitch with you. Bring it back!

GREAT! Are you in the market for new frames? Perhaps the first featured guest is you! Or co-host or executive producer, we have lots of options and roles available! offer-only of course, no audition necessary!!

This whole "episode" (my first) is lifting my spirits, after perusing a family email thread about what Amazon is doing to the economy of Baltimore. I suddenly needed a sense of beauty! Of play! Of yesness! I love your makeover ideas, and though my non-hairdo is part of my identity, after my 2nd shot I am heading over to OOH LALA to get my curls beefed up! YES to the circular pink frames!! Spike's too while we are at it! And the Neanderthal whine, since I'm on a whining fast. Also, the Duke and Duchess would LOVE you. It could easily happen. PS Also, new pants. For the first time in memory, my pooch, where I store my extra cookies, has outgrown my khakis, which were only RECENTLY acquired.

welcome!!! "Ooh Lala" is the perfect salon name, and "get my curls beefed up" is honestly the best phrase i've heard all day!! sounds like a great post-second-dose plan. i do rank cookies higher than i rank pants, and for what it's worth, i think you could argue that if the pants were VERY recently acquired, they definitely just shrunk in the wash! xoxoxo

Until I adjust to checking my spam folder there will be a healthy delay in my communications… I’m standing out in the sun in front of the florists waiting to get tulips together for Kate Howard… Always a good idea to contact someone named Posie for teamwork on flower delivery… I love you
