Fifth Annual Turkey Day Craft Hour

Wednesday, November 24th, 2010

It’s that time of year again! The time when Fancy and I get crafty and diligently construct our festive holiday turkeys. Each year, we’ve refined our thematic elements and aesthetic from our initial “hand” turkeys to, what we believe, is our best work ever! I have the Third Annual and Fourth Annual Turkey Day Craft Hours posted [...]

No Brain Cells Were Injured* in the Writing of This Post

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

Vacation is imminent (2 days!) and yet work is as crazy as ever and my immune system has succumb to whatever late winter/ early spring ass hattery sinus contagion I must have encountered on public transportation. And as an added bonus, I haven’t been able to eat solid foods for two weeks thanks to my unholy [...]

“I Salute You” Friday #1

Friday, March 12th, 2010

It’s Friday: day of general workweek malaise and bated breath whilst the clock ticks toward weekendedness. In honor of the collective disinterest in being productive, “I Salute You” Fridays are buoyed by recent pop culture achievements according to me (which in some cases kindly lend themselves to time-wasting strategies for the greater good of humanity).

Morning Follies

Wednesday, May 20th, 2009

Most mornings prove to be a mad dash to get out the door. My alarm goes off, I hit snooze, I get 10 more minutes of semi-craptacular sleep, and when it screeches at me again, I drag myself out of bed and clomp off to the bathroom to begin running the water. It takes about [...]

In his absence, all manner of “single-gal” debauchery takes place. Debaucherous stuff like wearing those full-coverage, decidedly unsexy cotton undies when it’s not even [...]

We Might Be Obsessed…

Wednesday, March 18th, 2009

To say that my friends Emo and Graphic Designer Friend and I like Gossip Girl would be the understatement of the Recession. We were them for Halloween. Often I’ve wanted to write about our love of this show, but then it really can’t be done any better than this. That said, our take on Monday’s episode [...]

Fate Won't Take My Fare Card

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

I’m on the bus. And guess who just got on after me? No, not that one. My psycho-bitch ex-roommate from college. See her? She’s that one there. No, not that one. That one. The one with the slightly crazed look in her eye. No! Don’t stare! Shit. Did she see you? Okay, so first of [...]
