Get that corn outta my face!

I owe a huge debt of gratitude to Roth for deciding to dress up as Nacho Libre this year. Anything I could come up with for a costume was greatly overshadowed by Roth’s crazy, I-still-can’t-believe-he-wore-this-in-public getup. (Can’t believe I am letting you see this, actually.)And to quote him from the other day, “Look at me. [...]

Not the post you’re expecting, I gather*

I’m still in shock about this, but somehow Roth and I bought a new car this weekend! It was completely unplanned, but after learning that my old car needed several hundred dollars in repairs as it was just about to click over to 100K miles, we hemmed and hawed and crunched some numbers and drove [...]

I love my husband — reason # 19

Posted on October 26, 2006 | Category: I Love My Husband | 5 Comments

(The following borders on completely inappropriate and downright distasteful. But I just can’t help myself. These are the kinds of things that happen to me, and I find them hilariously funny. Therefore, I must share, because I *know* there are others who can relate.) Despite his metrosexual, frat-boy looks and sometimes femme sentimentalities, he’s actually [...]

I’ll take ‘Grasping for Content’ for $400, Alex

Blogger was down for a couple hours this evening, which got me all hot and bothered. And not in a good way. But thankfully it’s back up, just in time for this very important annoucement. I have found one thing to love about Halloween: The new (are these new? I’ve never seen them before!) Reese’s [...]

Have I ever mentioned that the hate I harbor for Halloween is white hot, like the heat of a hundred fires from hell? I’m not exactly sure when the proverbial switch was flipped between enjoying and abhorring Halloween. I’m thinking it occurred somewhere between 1989 and 1997, the latter of the two years being the [...]

New digs

I’m finally in my new, non-shared office space! To my dismay, however, I realized I wouldn’t be able to do carpet angels, as I’m too tall and there are too many new filing cabinets and shelves in the way. And truth be told, it would be hard to explain the rug burn. But, I was [...]

Top Five Friday #9: Random crap we hold onto, because why?

Posted on October 20, 2006 | Category: Top Five Friday | 9 Comments

By no means am I a packrat. I subscribe to the train of thought, out with the old, in with the new, when it comes to packing and moving. If you haven’t touched, let alone looked at, an item in more than a year, toss it! The only exceptions I make are for photos, yearbooks, [...]

Project runaway

Posted on October 20, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 16 Comments

I have to say that I am quite disappointed by the final outcome of this season’s Project Runway, but I can’t say that I am the least bit surprised that the judges chose Jeffrey as the ultimate winner. It seems that edgy will always edge out classy and sophisticated any day, despite the fact that [...]

"If I had to, I could clean out my desk in five seconds and nobody would ever know I had ever been here. And I’d forget too."

I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned at one point or another that I’ve been sharing an office with my boss for the last seven months. Scratch that … I’ve been cramped into a crowded, sweaty hole affectionately nicknamed “the dorm,” my boss an arm’s length away, for seven of the longest months of my life, all [...]

Humble pie

“Welcome to your late twenties … we’ve been waiting for you,” read the card attached to Shannon and Brian’s birthday gift to me. I don’t know why, but that statement cracked me up for a good five minutes or so. It probably didn’t hurt (help?) that I’d had a shot of tequila and two margaritas [...]
