Quick, Before This Applies to 2012: HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Monday, February 7th, 2011

So uh…it’s been a while. Unintentionally, of course. The thing is, sometimes I get busy with things like deciding which jammies to wear next, napping on the couch with Mantracker on the Science channel in the background (seriously addicted), throwing in the towel and reading only the cartoon captions from my backlog of The New Yorker issues, and ordering various and sundry food stuffs for delivery including but not limited to a malted milk shake from Potbelly’s with the little butter cookies on the straw. You know, really important junk like that.

Anyway, so a week goes by and then another and even though I mean to blog, well…you know it doesn’t happen. Which is when I start to feel guilty on top of feeling that sense of obligation to my remaining six readers (hi!), and that guilt combines with my burgeoning shame for also having fallen severely behind in my Google reader. As you can see, I’ve been having a veritable kegger of blogging fail over here!

That said, this essentially worthless post is here to change all of that. Even though my blog has become the friend I have every intention to call and with whom I have so much to share but never do, I am determined to break the cycle and blog again! I’ll start small and go from there…

First things first, being a new dog mom is seriously making my whole life. I have never felt happier or more rewarded. I adore her little face and can’t wait to tell you what I’ve learned about her thus far. Three words: sexist, racist, Republican. For reals.

Second, kidney stones are a bunch of punk ass m#*$^% f*#&%@$!! More on that later, but just to be sure I’m clear: $*!%$#+&#&@!@!!!!!!!

Third, Vegas is happening in May! I can’t wait to meet everyone who has already registered and must confess I feel like the coolest girl because this blogger is going to be my roommate!

Last but not least, my new iPhone 4 arrived this morning from Verizon! Which means the rest of my day will be spent taking pictures and making videos of epic cuteness (i.e. Wendy).

Okay, wait, I lied. I have one more thing to share (also because the previous post said I would)..…the ugly Christmas sweaters my boyfriend and I made for the Music Box’s sing-along double feature of It’s a Wonderful Life and White Christmas.

Before: Standard Old Navy Sweater

After: What $60 at Jo-Ann Fabrics Looks Like

"Santa's favourite jumper," a la Bridget Jones. (Yes, yes that is a placemat. )

  1. You will LOVE BiSC. I highly suggest downloading a “oh shit I drank too much, how did my phone end up in a fountain, what do I do now?!” helper app.

  2. Oh no! Did that happen to you last year?
