Minions: Tell me what to wear to all these weddings
12 July 2011I remember basically nothing from Kindergarten other than the family urban legend that grew from my behavior in that class which posited that I was incapable of making friends. Maybe not so much “incapable of” as “unconcerned with.” Cousin Danny was in my Kindergarten class, and since I knew him from when I was something [...]
The Year of the Tiger
22 February 2010I have no clue whatsoever how to play golf, despite those many semesters of high school gym where I devoted as much of my energy as possible to playing it without getting sweaty because no one showered after gym in my high school, and then joining a sorority where I would forge a very close friendship with a [...]
april’s photo essay
28 April 2008So, I’m moving in a month. A lot of my stuff is going to be living in NJ with my parents (I’m trying to get them used to me just abandoning them with stuff I don’t want to deal with for when I have children) so I’ve started packing it up and taking it home [...]
Happy Valentine’s Day!: The Sequel
14 February 2008I’m not sure I approve of using your iPhone to propose (unless you’re Steve Jobs) but I will allow that this is fairly cute, and made 800% more hilarious by how aggressive people got in the comments section. via WorkFriend Jen
Happy Valentine’s Day!
14 February 2008Another one down
19 November 2007Oh, I forgot to tell you, like a month ago Eryn totally got married. I know, right? Crazy! Guys, remember that one time in college?? That was great. And I had a fantastic time at the wedding, reception, and afterparty. A united front of C/hristi/ens. Photo Gallery here!
So, here’s a story I wasn’t allowed to tell you before: the first in a series
1 October 2007And now we’ve come to the point where lack of actual content on this webpage is leading people to email me and say things like “Uh, everything okay? I mean, I noticed that you haven’t mentioned the Mets blowing their playoff chances or how awesome Gossip Girl is or posted pictures of the littlest Stickles in [...]
consider the source
22 August 2007I am not the best person at gracefully accepting the advice of others. …and then the breakup crap hit the fan and something about that apparently invites constant commentary from everyone in your life. Not that I’m not welcoming it– I will use anything helpful you can give me. I swear. But I will [...]
Reading Is Sexy: What I Did On My Summer Vacation
16 August 2007Godless by Pete Hautman (“Wait, so, no the Ann Coulter one? Huh. Go figure.” Come on, now. I don’t read books for grownups. Let alone crazy grownups). I got a copy of this at a CBC event about 3 years ago (huh, I wonder when that was… oh right, it was when my team won [...]
Things I have seen that I had never seen before
5 July 20071. College partner in crime Allison spent the night in Manhattan a few weeks back after attending the Alanna wedding (pictures and insightful commentary here, I’m sure someone will promptly tell me if I’ve linked incorrectly) and I was hard pressed to come up with an exciting NYC activity to top her last trip, when [...]
