In the words of the inimitable Jessica Rabbit, "You don't know how hard it is being a woman looking the way I do."

Fellow product junkies out there - especially those in NYC and DC - I have a unique opportunity to show the world your beauty routine! A producer from CBS News The Early Show recently contacted me about a story she's working on. Here's what she's looking for:

"There was a study done recently that American women spend about two years of their lives getting ready to go out – in the morning it averages about 54 minutes a day of showering and hair styling, etc. to get out the door to go to work in the morning. I am looking for a few women (preferably in the DC area or NYC area, but we can work elsewhere, too) who DO take a long time to get ready, and whose partners find their behavior baffling, annoying, what have you."

If this sounds like you, and you're interested in participating in the story for CBS, email me ASAP at kristen.s.kelly@gmail.com. I will aggregate the responses and send your contact information over to the producer.
