Misanthropy is the Choice for Me!
Let’s recap. It’s been almost a week to the day since I got epically dumped. Why am I sharing all this? Bonnie over at Life of Bon has invited everyone to “Just Write” and to link up. Yay, my computer is down, I’m barely able to keep up with my blogging and I’m doing this…

Don't Get Mad, Get A Cactus
So it would seem I have a type. This is George. George is an Oreocereus celsianus, or “old man” cactus. He’s a bit abrasive and he mostly ignores me but I absolutely dote on him. I can hold him and twist his hair in my fingers and breathe in his spicy scent and he…

If I Had to Guess…
“I like your shirt,” I told my customer. “Where did you get it?” “Guess.” I paused. “I don’t know, it’s really pretty though.” “No, guess.” “I honestly wouldn’t even begin to know where you got that shirt from, I’m sorry. “It’s from Guess.” Classic.

Scenes From The Morning I Got Dumped
21 blocks from where I got dumped In a Rite Aid A stranger states down at me from immense height. “Wow, that must’ve hurt.” Yeah “Right over the heart.” Yeah “You like pain?” It would appear so “But it goes away. The pain. After a while.” Yeah 38 blocks from where i got dumped. A…

Teething
I am, as we speak, cutting my wisdom tooth. Again. The cashier at Trader Joe’s put it best when he said “Every six month is indescribable pain, then it goes away and you forget to deal with it.” Basically. In the end, though, he opted to have his pulled out to end the cycle. I…

I Am Supergirl !!!
There used to be a saying. It went a little something like this: “If a tree falls in the woods and nobody is around to hear it, does it make a sound?” Now, I think we should change the saying: “If a blogger wears a cute outfit, and doesn’t do an outfit post about it,…

Why Vacation Isn’t All That
I love traveling up to Buffalo every year. But let’s face it: sometimes vacation sucks. Living out of a suitcase, travel-sized bottles of toiletries, long stretches of highway where your feet fall asleep and your butt falls asleep and finally YOU fall asleep and you drool against the window of a Greyhound bus (not that…

Charlie
Are you guys ready to be shocked by something horrible? I found this old photo when I went back home to visit last month: Holy crap, who is that? Yup, it’s me. Me and Charlie, partying like it’s 1999. I think that photograph actually was taken in 1999! Old Charlie is the family dog, and…

What Is “Doctor Who”?
This was too cute and funny I just had to share. Watching Jeopardy!, eating Haagen Dazs out of the container (did you know it was spelled that way? I sure didn’t! MIND BLOWN), the Final Jeopardy category is: “British Television” Oh man, I sooooo got this on lock. I mean, is there anyone out there…

Head-Space
I have a theory. On interior decorating. My theory is that you decorate your personal space the way the inside of your head looks. What? Ew. Not literally.Let’s take for example, my apartment. My flatmate is very organized and responsible. She is a self-described fan of modern, minimalist design. Nothing on the walls, nothing on…

Slangin’ Tough
While I’m on vacation, I have prepared a series of vlogs (slang for “video blogs”) FYE – For Your Entertainment. Today’s topic: SLANG! Here are five slang words or expressions I use to season my everyday conversation. They are delicious. Feel free to use them. Credit the source. First up: PTFO PTFO = Pass The…

If You Only Have Five Minutes to Live
You know those weird religious recruitment pamphlets that people slide under your apartment door? (No, you don’t get those? That’s weird. Cuz yeah, THAT’S weird.) Well, it gave me an idea: What would you do if: – you knew you only had five minutes to live? – you just found out that you only had…

Sharing is Caring…NOT
I consider myself a very sharing person. Therefore, I am a very CARING person. But you have to draw the line somewhere: Are you an over-sharer? Or do you refuse to share? Is it weird that I don’t like sharing any of these things? “Share” in the comments!

The Good Shit
Raise your hand if you’ve ever bought something because someone on a blog told you it was awesome. I’m raising at least three hands right now. The way I see it, bloggy friends are like girl-friends. If you found out about something that was awesome, you’d tell me, right? No secrets between girl-friends! Well, these…

Summer Lovin’
You know what totally doesn’t conduct unnecessary heat? Black plastic bandages. SARCASM! Summer in New York City can be…less than pleasant to most. That’s why there’s the cliche of the locals fleeing to the Hamptons. Those with the means literally head for the hill. Ain’t ya never seen The Seven Year Itch? Poor dude abandoned…

Headphones In
In New York City, there is an accepted decorum for addressing someone on the train when they have their headphones in: YOU DON’T. There are exceptions, of course: 1. If they dropped something important and haven’t noticed: a large wad of cash, their iPhone, their baby. Anything else, LEAVE THEM ALONE. 2. If you are…
