I feel so damned hip.

Tina, my own personal guide to/litmus test of cool, took me to a friend's party at a design studio in NY last year. I was one of the few Americans there (by midnight the place was slam-packed with beautiful European and Asian people). And I was definitely the only-est person from Milwaukee, WI. Tonight I'm trawling through shopping sites and find a book about that very design studio...wow. Everyone needs a Tina. If you don't have one, trust me. You need to find one. Pronto.
