Celebrity sightings at OC/American Rag:

1. Frank Ocean - This was when Frank was still a faceless rumor on the internet, with only a few images floating around of him on Tumblr. Usher had just been in the shop the day before and was singing along (natural harmony, wild talent, they don't make 'em the same anymore) and had asked who it was. Frank was in his Sidian Ersatz & Vanes moment and I stopped him on the stairs and asked, "Hey, are you Frank Ocean?" He was super nice about it and said yes. I told him about Usher and he was genuinely geeked. What a cool moment.
2. Shannyn Sossamon - I had the hugest crush on her coming out of college. I almost ran her over rounding the stairwell corner in OC and she had the cutest reaction.
3. Charlie Hunnam - Cool as fuck. Doesn't want to be bothered, but man. Fuckin' Jax Teller.

Benefits of having your own brand:

1. Work with people you love.
2. Don't work with people who are shitty.
3. There's no feeling like creating something and then watching someone you don't know interact with it - be it clothes, music, etc.

Comfort foods:

1. Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup
2. Soon Dubu
3. NY Slice

Reasons to be a KC Chiefs fan:

1. Team Culture - listen to Pat or Travis talking to their teammates on the sidelines and you'll know what great leadership looks like.
2. Andy Reid State Farm commercials.
3. The conversations & connections you get to have with people you otherwise would never talk to. Sports, hobbies, food, and art brings people together and that's the most amazing thing.
