4:43 a.m. I have my bag that has all my paperwork in it, and then the other with shoes and body shapers in all different sizes depending on how I’m feeling that day. The car picks me up between 4:30 and 4:45.

In the makeup chair, 5:23 a.m. The transformation begins! I’m so used to [being made up] that I don’t even notice it, believe it or not. It’s almost like brushing your teeth — except I brush my own teeth.

6:16 a.m. We have a big notebook where I track what I wear — the colors, the styles, accessories. I love a good sheath dress, and I love color — yellow is my favorite. The portrait? A guy who does craft services painted it for me!

8:20 a.m. I knew Charlie before the show, but I didn’t know-know him. Now I invite myself over to his place. We watched the Breaking Bad finale together, and I came with a camera to do selfies. He was like, What are you doing?

11:12 a.m. When we go off the air at 10:30, we have a postmortem and look ahead, and planning starts. We talk to bureaus in Washington, London, and L.A. — who’s going where, how things will be handled.

11:17 a.m. You know, I first got glasses in sixth grade and hated it. And now they’re a great accessory! I’m a big Warby Parker girl, but I get them from all over — I bought some bootleg eyeglasses in China, bazaar glasses.

12:07 p.m. I’m at O every day. The two jobs don’t bleed together: CBS is live, and at the magazine, we’re three months out. But there are times I’ll say, “We’re doing this great story in the magazine; we should do it for CBS.”

Off to the Forbes Women’s Summit, 1:38 p.m. I was interviewing the CEO of Rent the Runway, and changed into one of their dresses, and I was doing last-minute prep in the car. The flip phone? Listen, I like it. You can take it anywhere.

A very rushed elevator meal, 2:05 p.m. I’m not hungry at 3:30 in the morning; I can have a little bit of fruit and then wait till lunch. I passed on dessert — I’m trying to save some eating room for vacation in July.

2:30 p.m. That’s Sara Blakely of Spanx on the right. I remember meeting her on Oprah years ago, so I’m thrilled for her success. I wear Spanx every day anyway, but she did give everyone there her new Trust Your Thinstincts.

Back at O for a fashion run-through, 4:53 p.m. I put on green, because I have this bad habit of touching my face when I’m wearing makeup and then touching my dress, so the yellow was in bad shape.

At a Princess Grace Foundation screening of Rear Window, 7:16 p.m. I didn’t make the after-party — my homework’s delivered between 7:30 and 8. I don’t go to bed till 10 or 11. If I go to bed too early, I wake up at 1.
