I’ve received official word that our very own Blair Waldorf has safely touched down in New York City.  Phew.  The city’s missed you, B!  You can be sure her best friend, Serena, and her best maid, Dorota, were waiting at the helipad for her.  Dorota even made a big welcome back sign.  Aww.  Blair’s first stop?  Masa.  Guess Paris’ sushi has nothing on Manhattan’s.  I’m sure you’ll be seeing Blair out and about around town the next few days.  She’s got a lot of catching up to do.  She also needs to get ready for her first day at Columbia.  How exciting!  Though it’s good to know that Blair won’t be doing it alone.  With Serena by her side, I have a feeling this is going to be a good year for B.

Spotted: B and S shopping at Barney’s.  First day of school ensembles?  Though I’m sure they also bought outfits for the 2nd day of school, 3rd day of school, 4th day of school, etc.  N running in Central Park.  Guess that’s how he’s getting ready for school to begin.  E getting off the train at Grand Central.  Probably was at Yale visiting BF Elliot.  Still no D sightings.  Hmm.  And I’m not sure if this is a C sighting but I did receive a tip that a black limo was spotted making its way through the loading entrance at the Empire.  Was C in it?  Let’s hope so!
