I'm no weather lady...
I don’t normally have too many stellar moments, and the following conversation is no exception… good for me.
Will: we’re getting 30 inches of snow Kim: no we’re not ! haha Kim: they said like 3-5 Will: people are saying it at the break table Kim: break table? haha Kim: oh like between lots of snow Kim: or like winter mix/rain Will: what Will: break table..like...

You are an unstoppable good idea machine...
Man, I love Thursday night TV… Parks & Rec does not get as much action as it should. The whole cast is really gold and perfect in their own right. Notably the best: Ron Swanson…
“The less I know about other people’s affairs, the happier I am. I’m not interested in caring about people”

The best deals are in your closest... →
This is a great self-help entry for those struggling with cash and concept… I’ve been trying to be brave with working with what I’ve got. Luckily, Kendi (just the cutest fashion blogger) made some sense of it all for me.
If you’re anything like me you get stuck wearing the same skirt paired with the same shirt, shoes and leggings every time you wear it… WORST! So...

I'll leave when I'm good and ready...
I just Lucille Bluth’d my afternoon, after 3 hours of shoveling snow I have poured vodka into my pomegranate juice… I will continue to look out for emails from work and read for class tonight.
I’m also really mad I have to go to class, if it’s icy and dangerous SO HELP ME JAH.

Connections abounding...
So you know how they always say (also, who is they?…) anyway, it’s a small world. Well yesterday at the end of my work day I’m just cruising around Etsy like I normally do, searching through treasuries for cheap vintage fashion. I end up finding a cute nautical themed sweater, it’s red which I’m not normally a fan of but in a rush before leaving work I add it to my...

Can and a half...
So Billie wanted confirmation that we had met (during college, at a campus activites confernce in Nashville, TN circa 2007) Bobby Moynihan. Which is true.
Pix or it didn’t happen:
At the time he was with Upright Citizens Brigade, but we knew him more famously from the Bro Rape skit made popular by the youtube nation. But what I didn’t know was apparently he’s on SNL now,...

Like a vision she dances across the porch... →
After this post from a favorite fashion blogger, I wish it were warmer (duh)… I’m craving a cute dress, fierce open toed pumps and a warm breeze. I can almost hear a Bruce Springsteen jam with the windows down already, beer me.

Friday night food for though...
Before I feel like I can go out and enjoy my night, I have to put this out there… I think there are a lot of people who are obsessed with certain ideas that are pleasures in this life. I think people are enthralled by the way things should be and thrive off of the ideas of things like “love” and “fun”. Basically, they’re claiming that they are fulfilling these...

The reasons her life did not turn out more like a...
If I could make my life look more like a movie right now, this is how it would pan out:
An extreme long shot on a house with a large front yard. Along with a big tree out front holding with one of its branches, a tire swing. The ground would be covered in 2 feet of snow and the house would have icicles draping off the gutters. The sky would most likely be a melancholy shade of gray. A title...

Celebrity Whine...
I know we all shouldn’t give a shit about celebrities, but because culture and mass communication have shifted our universe to care, I have this to say:
I’m still mad that Emma Stone turned blonde, what the fuck. I have nothing against blondes I just believe certain hair colors suite different people. I had the same struggle with Ashlee Simpson. I also might be bias towards...

Hello blogosphere, missed you...
Came back on Saturday from a spectacular, well needed/well deserved vacation. Boyfriend face and I went to Disney for 8 days/7 nights and it was awesome. We lucked out in so many ways with deals and hookups that we made less of a dent in our wallets than said vacation should have. As always Disney was full of happiness and magic, I’m such a sucker for it all.
I do think my next vacation...

I was never good at math...
I was good at reading numbers on a scale and realizing it was time to start counting calories. I know everyone has their story but I’ve been thinking about mine a lot this week, trying to be proud of where I’ve come from. Surely, all of this is rooted to the beginning of the new year and all media being flooded with “weight loss”.
I did a lot of reflecting while watching...

If you could have one celebrity bff...
I would totally pick this ladyface:
My kindest friend Annie thinks in some light I resemble Christina Hendricks… it’s more than likely the fair skin and the touch of ginger. In short, I’m flattered! If I could be her I would, but I’d also settle for just being her bff and drinking some drinks together and talk about dresses and shoes.
Here’s a GPOY(W) a day late,...

And every job that must be done...
There is an element of fun, you find the fun and snap! The job’s a game….
It’s still up for debate whether Mary Poppins made me the organization lover that I am or not, but I like to think it was her. (was she or was she not perfect in every way!) I always fancied cleaning and putting thing away. I think my Mom saw Julie Andrews do her thing and started telling me cleaning was...

Hit me with your best shot...
Well hello 2011, let’s do this. Everyone has mixed emotions about new year’s resolutions and I get it. You either love them and live them or you don’t make them so you’re not let down. I’m sort of indifferent, I never really take them too seriously, but it’s nice to have a figuratively clean slate. Even if you look at them as more guidelines for yourself…
