I guess it's good I have the job at Anthropologie.

Yes!

'Cause, you know what?

If you had kids, they'd leave you after 18 years, but Anthropologie, ­you might work there forever.

I mean, I hope not.

Me, too.

You're not gonna work there forever, but you could if you wanted to 'cause you're so good at your work, but you're surely gonna become a famous artist, so it's not even an issue.
