Ex: Well ducks are mighty frustrating, if you're trying to catch a greased up one.
Me: How many times have you tried to catch a greased up duck? I want a number.
My todays aren't great right now, but I'm dealing.
Above everything, I got frantic calls/texts from my sister and father today who were letting me know that on Tuesday night, my grandmother fell in her home. It wasn’t until this morning that someone found her, which means that she laid on the floor of her kitchen for a day and a half.
I’m basically tearing up thinking about that part of it. How in the world did she feel when she was...
“The strongest cards you have are the ones you haven’t played.”
– That’s mad important to me right now

auto-correct on touch screens can be a bitch
Carl: And [Redacted] would have died by nite if she [had consumed my drink].
Me: [Many minutes later] I've taken this time to think about if I know what "die by nite" means and, nope, I don't.
Me: By knight, perhaps?
Me: Because that would be weird if you sent a knight to kill her. Not to mention archaic.
Carl: Now*
Carl: Although I like the typo better.
Guys
I’m even texting exes and people who I don’t even consider worthy of my time about how I just sent in my final paper of the never-ending semester. To be fair, I also sent out a mass text with my face all gooped up in a grin with a big thumbs up in front of it. Who knew I’d be this happy to avert my full focus onto moving?

Oh mah goddddddddddddd needing some Britney to...
I’m being pretty awesome at my work by telling everyone that I’m applying for the general managerial position, which just opened up, then insisting that that should just go ahead and start calling me “Boss”. I’ve been at my job for roughly 6 weeks at this point. I told this first to the Assistant General Manager, who has been there for 20 years, then to the Acting...
Writing about honor in Yemeni tribes right now....
would it be inapropes to begin this paragraph with how Jessica Alba and Cash Warren named their daughter Honor Marie, and regardless I’m still not accepting that as a name. But I guess it goes hand in hand with an idiot name like Cash, I don’t know. Who am I to judge, right?

Your (not so) Daily Roommate and Denise
Anyenda: [In regards to his incessant Star Wars consumption] The amount of money that George Lucas has made off of me is incredible.
Me: Much the same could be said about the ladies of the night who reside on our street corner.
Anyenda: They offer such great prices .. who am I to say no?
“Man, I need to get my head in the game, otherwise I’m going to be drinking...”
– Me, recounting to Anyenda about how I picked up all the wrong shit at CVS today. I was all on board to getting the right flavor/combo of each up until the last second when my attention was diverted - by something shiny, I’m sure. See, shit just got real with my ADD. THIS is going to be the...
For anyone keeping score (part 2)
Anyenda is in the living room monitoring me so that a) I will write this paper and b) I won’t jump out of the window or go play in traffic or get crafty with my major arteries with a pair of scissors. Because you guys. Fuck my life right now.
I think this explains my night slash life pretty...
Dom: How's your paper goin?
Me: Shut up.
Just for anyone who is keeping score right now
I’m really, really homesick for Brooklyn and its gross, smelly hipsters (which my phone auto-corrects to ‘tipsters’ … that, they might be, iPhone, that, they might be) and McCarren Park where I once saw a big ol group of Hasdidic Jews playing softball. I miss Brooklyn Bowl and that godforsaken girl who was on E and danced for 3 straight hours (there were children there -...
The amount of money I spend on cut fruit from...
I’m ashamed. But it’s so gooooooooooooooooooddddddddddddddddd.
Clues.

If you don’t have something nice to say, that’s fine.
If you wouldn’t say it to their face, keep your fucking mouth shut.

Your (not so) Daily Roommate and Denise
Augie: You know who I like? That Asian girl on The Suite Life of Zach and Cody.
Me: Oh. Brenda Song?
Augie: Yeah. Her. She's hot.
Me: And don't ask me why I'm 25 and I know the star's names of the The Suite Life of Zach and Cody.
Augie: Well I knew her name, too.
Me: Yeah, but you have a crush on her - it makes sense. I, on the other hand, just happen to know her name.
Augie: Yeah, you're kinda weird.

When Memes Hit Real Life
Me: I really want to document the drama/cray cray that occurs at my work on the daily, but I've been thinking about it: Do you think I could potentially get fired for blogging about my job?
Domonique: Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh white girl problems ....
Specific hard features on a person are so appealing to me. I don’t know, I’ve been thinking about that a ton today. A strong jaw line, a hard, sharp nose, a glint in the eye that screams years of knowledge and an ability to see right through pretty much everything. The no-nonsense thing. I think it’s imperative that we know what characteristics in us need to be complimented in a...
I think Eastern Standard Time is the best time...
But I can’t help but think about how nice it must be to still be in the mid-morning while the East Coasters are in their mid-afternoon struggle, à la Pacific Standard Timers. That, for me, is one of the greater draws to California living.

Completely forgot that I shouldn't engage in the...
These broads … everything is “girl-on-girl crime” this and “you’re being too judgmental” that and “this is a black and white scenario and I am right and you are wrong, end of story” all day long. Why did I even bother, you guys? Oy.
I just woke up from a twelve-hour slumber
It was one of those sleeps so crucial that after having woken today, I feel bland. Very vanilla. I slept so hard, so deeply, that I’m almost wanting more. I’m not refreshed and certainly not ready to go out into the world and get it. I’m just ready to get some coffee and head into work soon for another twisted mess of a long day.
36 Hours in Boston →
mascarah:
This is a great little guide to Boston courtesy of our NYT friends.
Love (and hate) the shout out to my favorite Oyster Bar…almost everything on this list is spot on.
I always find it bizarre that someone would vacation in Boston. It doesn’t even occur to me, even though I’m regularly giving out suggestions on what to do if one finds oneself here. Having lived here for...
