Bravotv.com: This one is from Ellen, who says: “I have three boys and a girl. They’re all under the age of 11, and I love them a lot. At the same time, I’d love to be successful with my home business, and I can’t figure out how to manage the time. You make it look so easy. What’s your secret?”

I just multi-task. When the kids are in tae kwon do class, I make phone calls, and I write letters. And look, I have help with the kids so I actually do have some free hours during the day. Also, I don’t watch a lot of television, and that’s a big time saver.

I generally, (not lately, because I’m so pregnant) – but I generally start off my morning with an hour of exercise, usually an hour. And I run on a track at the Y, which is easy and very hypnotic, and...]]> http://www.bravotv.com/blog/laura/2006/11/ask_laura_part_two.php http://www.bravotv.com/blog/laura/2006/11/ask_laura_part_two.php Thu, 16 Nov 2006 13:39:49 -0500 Ask Laura laurasblog_laura3_320x240.jpg
I've been working on this advice column for the gays over at OUTzonetv.com. But sometimes I've been getting a lot of questions from straight people. So I answered a few choice numbers:

I bought the wedding dress of my dreams. I was dumped four months ago, but the wedding dress was already bought and paid for. To make matters worse, I'm 4'10, and a wedding dress size 16. So I have to keep it. What would you do?
Gail from Naperville, Illinois

Gail, if it were me, I would put it on a mannequin, and display it proudly in my living room. This would remind me every day how lucky I am that I didn’t make a mistake and marry that jerk.

I'm currently debating whether or not I should move to England when I marry my boy. My family wants me to stay in the States, but...]]> http://www.bravotv.com/blog/laura/2006/11/ask_laura.php http://www.bravotv.com/blog/laura/2006/11/ask_laura.php Thu, 02 Nov 2006 14:05:14 -0500 America Loves an Underdog laurasblog_laura2_320x240.jpg
Bravotv.com: How’s it going Laura?
It’s going well. How are you?

Bravotv.com: We’re all exhausted.
Tell me about it.

Bravotv.com: How are you this week, now that it’s all over?
I have to say, I was quite surprised by the reaction to my accusation of Jeffery. I knew, when I brought it up, that it would look bad for me to a lot of people. But I really thought it would be more of a 50/50 situation. And it’s funny because the whole season, he had been viewed by the public as this sort of mean-spirited, nasty commenting, sort of picking on fat women and farm girls -- and then suddenly it became, "Poor Jeffrey, how can Laura be so mean?"

And I really think it’s the public’s fascination with the underdog. It’s hard for people to understand this, but I’ve really never had a problem with...]]> http://www.bravotv.com/blog/laura/2006/10/america_loves_an_underdog.php http://www.bravotv.com/blog/laura/2006/10/america_loves_an_underdog.php Fri, 27 Oct 2006 07:33:25 -0500 Does She or Doesn't She? laurasblog_laura4_320x240.jpg

Bravotv.com: Hi Laura. It’s time for our weekly check-in. These will run weekly or so, and I’m sure you have a lot to say. But we’re all wondering about how you’re doing, first of all. Are you holding up well?

Oh yeah, I am. I mean look, the whole thing is much huger than I ever expected, but I’m holding up just fine and it’s all very exciting and it’s all very good. You know it’s a lot like having a baby -- when you’re in the middle of it, it’s really difficult, but once it’s all over, you think: “Wow that was great, I’m really glad I did that.” In the heat of things you go, can I just quit now? That’s been my analogy for the whole Project Runway experience.

Bravotv.com: That’s a good way to look at it. We’ll save all the really gripping and terrifying questions for after the finale....]]> http://www.bravotv.com/blog/laura/2006/10/does_she_or_doesnt_she.php http://www.bravotv.com/blog/laura/2006/10/does_she_or_doesnt_she.php Tue, 17 Oct 2006 18:54:02 -0500
