Hey everybody! Ok, so BIG news. (In my world…) My blog is officially self-hosted! Well, technically not this blog. Look at your browser URL. Does it say http://stopmeifyouveheardthiso ne.wordpre...
My friend Sam says that I inspire awkward moments. I’m not sure how to take that. I mean, yes, awkward things happen to me. I am often awkward. But that happens to everyone…right? Quick, ...
Not going to lie, I almost didn’t take these pictures last night. Actually, as long as we’re being honest, I didn’t take these pictures last night. I took them this morning. Because...
Ok, so on the heels of that accidentally serious post, I got some interesting news: I was selected as one of Rent the Runway’s style awards nominees this week! Wanna help me win? All you have t...
One day, my friend Erin and I were discussing how everything on the Internet lives forever and how just about anything can be found in a Google search, when the conversation shifted to how that proba...
All right. I’m going to tell you something that will disappoint some of you. (Mostly Erin.) I’m not going to show you pictures of the whole dining room today. I know. I. KNOW. (See, I tol...
We finally got it! Glad that ordeal is over. Next up, a finally decorated dining room. Filed under: Domesticity, On My Mind, Things I Like
So for the second time in the last couple of months, I missed my exit driving to work. (Ironically, the same exit that I claimed stresses me out so much. Does it stress you out, self? Does it?) It mi...
Oh! I almost forgot to tell you! Benny is baaaaaaaaack. And Bernardo is history. And the world is a better place for it. Filed under: Clandestine Work Blogging, Commuter Musings, Things I Like
You guys know I can’t make a major hair decision without consulting you first. Plus, I mean, I know you love being a part of the decision, right guys? …guys? Bueller? Anway, here’s ...
So I check my blog stats fairly often. Not often enough to be considered obsessed, but often enough that I can probably give you a pretty accurate ball park of where the numbers are at any given time...
I’ve been trying really hard not to complain as much on here. I mean, in the long run, I’ve got things pretty great. But can I just whine about something for a teeny, tiny minute? Ok, so ...
Aaand just because I know I have readers out there who are like, “What IS this, a DECOR blog? That is NOT what I signed up for!”, here is a post that has nothing to do with decor. So I ha...
So if you read my post from this morning (and if not, what are you waiting for?), it’s probably pretty clear that my living room is done in terms of decor. I should probably be a little embarra...
In general, I am not the most reliable when it comes to sewing promises. Remember that dress I said I was going to make? And then said I was giving up on and was going to make into a skirt instead? T...
I was going to save this for a weekday post, but it’s such a quickie craft I think it will do nicely for a weekend post. (Heh heh…quickie…) You know how a lot of white powders can l...
“You should either be a model or a Rockette.” ~Old man behind the drugstore register as he hands me my change. Really? Those are my only options? Filed under: Life in New York, Out of Con...
Well today is certainly shaping up to be a nice one. (And it’s only 8:30 in the morning!) First, I’m having a decent hair day. Always a good way to start. Next, it’s Friday, so the ...
So, Benny is in the shop finally getting fixed. Poor, brave soul. I miss him terribly. Currently, I’m carting myself around in a rental. It’s ok. JUST ok. Actually, I kind of hate him. I&...
I tend to throw my heart and soul into projects. I invest a lot and I dream big. And even if the final product doesn’t match my lofty aspirations, I would rather go all out than put up a wimpy ...
Wowie-zowie* you guys. You’re all really nice. Or you just really like knowing someone in Glamour magazine. But I prefer to think you’re all just really nice. The blog was five views shy ...
So remember my promise that I’m going to be in Glamour? It’s on newsstands! My buddy Jess just sent me a pic of the article. Check it: Gahhhhh kind of crazy. But it’s me! If you can...
Ok, so unless you just started reading my blog (in which case, welcome! Have a look around!), you are aware that I am in the throws of redecorating. You should know things are going well. (I know, yo...
Not going to lie, our apartment got all kinds of clean this weekend. The living room is spotless. Even the “corner office” is looking pretty snazzy. The bathroom? Let’s just say the...
Sometimes I think the best environment for me to get something done is one that is slightly motivated by panic. Case in point: Remember my little credenza-themed freak-out yesterday? (Also, gawd coul...
Sooo I’m having a major case of mixed emotions right now. First, we actually sold the server! As in, they just picked it up and carted it away! For realz! For cash monies! So that’s great...
Everyone enjoying their long weekend? Ya eating a lot? You wanna hear some more about food? Well, here’s hoping you just answered with a resounding “YES!” Because I’ve got tha...
Morning, lovelies! Guess why today is wonderful? Well, two reasons. For one, today is a half day at work! And then I have TWO days off! And then it’s the weekend! Hooray! For another, I’m...
Uh oh, guys. I think we might be in a trouble. Over the last few months, I feel like I have been swamped with goings-on and thangs to talk about. I mean, here’s an abbreviated list: 1. Quitting...
