I never intended for it to be this way. I was just a simple girl. I got caught up in the romance and glamour. I was attracted immediately to his strength, style and confidence. Every time we were together it felt like we were the only two people in the world. It all happened so fast, and when we had to part, it was unbearable. I have to wait a whole week for him to return every Sunday night at 9 p.m. on AMC.
My love affair is with Mad Men, the acclaimed Emmy-winning drama that follows Don Draper, an advertising executive in the 1960s. Set on sparkling Madison Avenue, the show highlights the work and sex lives of the advertising staff of Draper's company. Now in its fourth season, the show's drama has taken many turns through the real history of the 1960s. And if you're not interested in the educational factors, you can find entertainment in the constantly changing relationships of the cast.
Though Draper does fit my tall, dark and handsome prototype, what I love most
about the show is the visual aesthetic and costume design. Women wear brightly patterned dresses belted at the empire waist, accented with gold brooches or pearls. Their coiffed hair is Aqua Netted into place, sweeping across their high cheekbones. The look is finished off with mary jane patent leather heels and stockings that seem to exist only for their removal by the hands of handsome men.
The men — Draper included — stick to classic cuts accented with colored pocket squares or sleek skinny ties. As work (of many kinds) calls, the suit remains the staple. Men swing jackets over their broad shoulders as they exit the office, or unbutton dress shirts as they bed married women. Call it provocative if you will, but Mad Men combines elements of drama as smoothly as a bartender makes your favorite cocktail.
If you're intrigued by the drinking, working and sleeping around in Mad Men, read Molly's story on page 11 for more.
Although I'm sure there will be a few disagreements ahead in my relationship
— being late for our Sunday night dates, cheating with other shows etc., I'm convinced we can make this one last. It's been a good four years thus far, and if a new show does come into the picture, at least I can look back and say that Mad Men was the best I've ever had.

Early spending by Senate not a worry
BY MICHAEL HOLTZ mholtz@kansan.com
What appeared to have been an early spending spree in Student Senate was nothing more than business as usual, said treasurer Erin Pishny.
Last year, Senate had approved $30,365 after two full sessions, or 26 percent of its unallocated account. Money from the unallocated account funds events, speakers and other activities sponsored by student groups. It also pays for general costs associated with those groups and costs associated with Senate.
Senate allocated $35,467, or 30 percent, of funds available to student groups during its first two sessions.
Pishny said allocating such a large percentage of Senate's available funds at the beginning of the semester was typical. Even so, she said shed like senators to be more meticulous before voting to approve funding.
The largest amount approved so far this year was $19,100 in salary increases for members of the Student Executive Committee.
"I would just caution people to really look at the bills," said Pishny, a senior from Lenexa. "I would like to see more questioning of people in finance [committee] and in full Senate."
Despite the early spending spree. Pishny said Senate should have enough money to last through the school year.
Money for the unallocated account comes from a $15.50 activity fee paid by all students as a required campus fee.
"I don't really see it being a problem," Pishny said. "We have a good amount of money unallocated to
fund the projects that students have on campus."
SENATE TO WORK ON A MISSION STATEMENT
Student Body President Michael Wade Smith announced the formation of a new taskforce designated to create a Student Senate mission statement Wednesday.
Senate committees each elected two members to the President's Taskforce on Mission, History and Vision on Wednesday night. Smith said he would choose two students unaffiliated with Senate to also be members.
Smith said he was shocked when he first realized Senate didn't have a formal mission statement. He said it was an integral piece of any organization's success.
Smith said he'd like to see a completed mission statement by mid-November.
"We want to make sure that Senate is keeping campus moving forward." Smith said. "To do that you need to have something that's creating vision and that purpose for you."
"As long as we display it, read it and know it, it's going to inform the decisions we make for a lot of years to come," Smith said.
Students interested in Joining the President's Taskforce on Mission, History and Vision should send an e-mail to Michael Wade Smith at michaelwadesmith@gmail.com.

University students Kelsey Flinn, a freshman from Overland Park, and Megan Lounds, a freshman from Winfield, arrived 20 minutes before the show and were excited to see some of their favorite songs.
"We're big Broadway nerds," Flinn and Lounds said.
