i love my vcr and you can't take that away from me
One of my favorite party flyers was the chain mail ransom note fashioned after the one in the Big Lebowski.
There was one summer, summer of 2004, that will forever live on as my best and most favorite time of my life. An integral part of that summer was spent coming home from the bar and immediately putting the Big L in the vcr which we would fall asleep to. It was only after about the 200th...
Tom Hanks at his best
is most definitely in the movie The Burbs. I love this movie.
Also, this morning I watched Reality Bites on vhs on my new VCR! Now I’m going to go listen to mary j. blige and tone loc for the rest of the afternoon.
Christmas in a Nutcracker
Wow, what a strange range of emotions this time around. Also, apparently Christmas has me preferring my dad. Who would have thought? But I’ll get to that.
I’m big on tradition and nostalgia. Sometimes I go a little overboard, even. I’m not sure if the recession is really to blame, or maybe 2008 is just an off year, but Christmas came and went without any of the pomp and...
Blue Christmas
Christmas has never been my favorite holiday, but I still love the traditions of it. In fact, the traditions are my favorite part about any holiday: the carols, decorating, driving around looking at lights, wrapping presents. What I don’t like are all of the obligations that go along with christmas. Unfortunately, my mom has never been much into the christmas spirit and it’s rubbed...
“Cool i hope for you its the weather will be nice but i have to say that i like...”
– is quite possibly the best text message ever.
Do you sleep?
He spells oh as ho and sweet as sweat.
Usually that would make me hate someone, but with him it’s adorable.
Seriously?
Even music sounds better (when you are sooooo in “like” with someone). Or maybe it’s the vodka?
The Bodysuit Strikes Again
But this time it was serious. This weekend was a soulmate reunion held in our old college town. The occasion centered around one bffe who now lives in australia. I hadn’t seen her in 1.5 years, and the soulmate reunion was a much needed catch up session. Lots of laughs had by all, and not to mention the best food ALL WEEKEND LONG. Never have i ever has always been a soul-revealing...
FUCK YOU FLORIDA. It Should Never Be 80° In...
stop fucking whining and go to the pool. Today was gorgeous and no one should be pasty, even in December.
you know what they say: if you can’t stand the heat…move back to NY.

(via avedanke) Today I was mowing and it was motherfucking 38 degrees (Converter says that is 100.4?) I WANTED TO GET A BUCKET OF POISON AND POUR IT ALL OVER THE GRASS SO THIS WOULD NEVER HAPPEN...
Happiness Is a Warm Gun
So a lot of little small things have been happening and I’m thinking they might add up to a big thing, somehow. at some point. But they’re all so inconsequential and non-consecutive, so maybe it’s unlikely that anything big will come of it. At any rate, I’ve recently realized I’ve been the happiest I’ve been in a really long time. Not to sound cliche. But...
Make it rain
how can it be that I spent $16 on cheese in two days??? Fucking brie is so expensive!
My cocktail party last night was a success! Karaoke was a hit, crab and shrimp hush puppies were to die for and we invented a delicious pumpkin holiday shot. I have been having the most fun recently. This not working is really working for me. On top of that, my best friend is back from Italy with good...
Get er done
Tonight’s my cocktail party and so much to do! I have to finish diy-ing some gifts, decorate, go grocery shopping for my excellent menu which consists of the following:
- crab and shrimp hush puppies
- red and green mexican wraps
- brie and portabella cups
- white bean bruschetta
- macadamia truffle cups

Good Faith Effort
So, apparently I have a fetish for professors. I would be so bold to expand this and say I have a fetish for intellectuals. But…specifically professors. In undergrad, I had an evolving fantasy with my italian professor. In my head, we were lovers and would spend night and day in bed reciting idiomatic expressions in Italian and giggling. When we got bored, we’d move to the terrace...
Ruby
Ruby is a reality-based show based on, you guessed it, its namesake: a morbidly obese woman living in savannah, GA. Ruby is the most beautiful person I’ve ever seen on television. I watched two episodes this morning while getting ready for school and was floored. This woman is so inspiring and so real. It’s refreshing to see an actual reality show based on a real person with real...

On the Move
I had my best run yet, today! I’m so proud of myself, I’ve found my stride. I ran 4 miles at a 11:27 min/mile…This is especially a feat considering the last four days I’ve done nothing but binge eat and binge drink and nap and parade around in bodysuits.
I think I’ve reached the point that I’ve been hoping to: that I actually enjoy working out and...

his cat’s dead.
This had me cracking up. Something awful, but quite funny.
