I’m reading a new book called Netherland, by Joseph O’Neill. It’s been well reviewed, it’s popular, whatev. Many people I know have already read it. Well. I guess I could just say Wayne’s already read it, but I think he told me someone else did too, possibly Bryan. So far it’s about New York, cricket, [...]

It is raining ah. gain. How can that even be? Is there really that much available water in the sky? Really? Really?
I am sick of walking in the rain. I am sick of babysitting my wet umbrella on the El so it doesn’t get too close to some other innocent rain victim. I am sick [...]

Today is rainy, but I’m getting better at my rainy day procedure. First of all, I bring two sweaters, one with a hood, that’s the rainy sweater. One without a hood, that’s the indoors sweater. Second, I bring an extra pair of sandals too. I know it sounds dumb, but sitting at my desk dripping [...]

Last night I got a free Kerastase Treatment!!!! I know. I KNOW! Wait, maybe you don’t know. I will tell you.
Kerastase is another expensive hair product line, another Bumble & Bumble or Aveda if you will, basically for movie stars and extremely devoted fashionistas (sorry, I read a lot of beauty blogs these days so the [...]

Today is a good day. I’m wearing a skirt, so. You know what that means. A good day.
I did kind of drop off the blogging planet. There are two reasons for this. One, because my computer at work can’t always keep up with the changing layout of wordpress. Which admittedly only changed once, but whatev. [...]
Not all that cold

I have not been all that cold yet this winter. I think there are two factors contributing to this. For one, it has actually not been that cold yet this winter.
For instance, a little comparison: Last year (aka “The Long Winter” by ML) our heat did not work properly so my apartment was chronically below 60 [...]

1. I am laying off the caffeine. (you: what?!) You heard me. I just had a mug of tea for breakfast. (you: tea?!) Yes. I have been making tea for myself in the morning. The reasons for this are twofold: Firstly, I have a whole lot of tea in my house. So muchthat it warrants [...]

Today I have been rocking out to the sweet sound of Lisa Loeb in my own head. It just keeps playing. I don’t know why this happens from time to time, you just wake up and it’s like there’s this inevitable soundtrack to the day that you can’t escape. So to celebrate, I put a little [...]

So this morning I woke up at the nightmarish hour of 7:30. What makes 7:30 so scary? Well, I try to leave the house by 7:20 if that gives you any indication. But what’s more is that it’s so close. Like if I throw on an outfit and run I really can still make it to [...]
