Well, well, well. I must admit when I first saw the email from Erin Kaplan of “The City” fame, I immediately assumed it was some type of electronic restraining order or one of those pesky “slander” lawsuits. No joke, when I first saw it I was like, “Oh crap.” That’s usually the reaction I have when I encounter and/or hear from someone I write about. However, I must admit I was pleasantly surprised. Who knew Erin Jo loved my City recaps? I love when people I write about “get it.” You know what I mean? They take it all in fun. Erin Kaplan? Gets it. Kelly Cutrone? Gets it. Tommy Lee? Didn’t get it. Kim Zolciak? Didn’t get it. The only thing that could have made this email better is if Erin attached a picture of herself giving me the side-eye or an double eye roll. I’m kidding. It would have been better if the email went a little something like this:
My Dearest IBBB,
Where do I begin? I love your recaps of The City. I love you. I love the fact that as I type this email to you I am using Olivia has a footstool underneath my desk. It’s a little bony, but still comfortable. Anyeyeroll, since I work/live in NYC and you work/live in NYC let’s get together for a beer or 10 and then stop by and pick up Kelly Cutrone and go sing Christmas carols in front of Olivia’s apartment. Oh hell, Joe Zee Messina can come too. We’ll talk about knocking over a 7-11 as the night progresses.
Forever Yours,
Erin Jo
