Why doesn't Kitty have her own Substack?!? We can help brainstorm cute names for it. Kitty-cism? Kitty Litter-ature? Kitty's Corner? She's too good not to keep going! 💜

Appreciate the fashion guidance and agree Miss. Congeniality is a classic worth quoting! Kitty reminds me of another wise Kitty - Kitty Forman from "That 70s Show." Classic ladies!

I love starting the week with Fundraising for Breakfast!

Julie--let's you and me get together and write Miss Congeniality 3: Dressed to Kill at Christmas. It'll take place at a fashion show for charity in Rochester and be emceed by--who else?--Josh Allen. Sandra Bullock doesn't have the Christmas spirit and goes under cover at a fashion show to raise money to save Christmas....only to discover that she's had the Christmas spirit all along. The end. I have so many good ideas for us, Julie!

I will never forget this sage advice: No one is listening to anyone anyway. Thanks, Kitty.

This will make our next 1:1 awkward, Renee.

Some very practical advice, gleaned from years of life experience.

Well I’m certainly never going to fundraise for another marathon again!

I will always donate to any race you run, Wes. But only if all of your training occurs by running up and down the Rocky steps in Philadelphia or through the meat-pack district (trailed by local kids running to keep up with you) like in every Rocky training montage I've ever seen. If you tell me this isn't true I'm never speaking to you again in my entire life.

Did you not know it was a scam? Oh you sweet summer child.

Guess I’ll have to declare marathon-induced bankruptcy… again!!

This is both life-changing and life-affirming. Thank you for sharing your infinite knowledge, Kitty. What a Monday morning treat to imagine Moira Rose giving me Machiavellian wisdom.

And this was only fundraising advice, Kaitlyn! There's more where this came from. I'm not sure if Kitty has seen Schitt's Creek. I'll ask. And while Kitty doesn't have a wig collection, I am curious what she would name them if she did.
