I’m all about the personal challenges as of late. If that makes me a super-annoying woman who is clearly close to 30, then so be it.
So, we’ve already talked about my rest-of-the-year challenge: 3 concert tickets on my fridge at all times. I’ve been wildly successful so far. On the docket for the rest of [...]
Jenn is one of my newer friends here.
Okay, so we’re not friends yet. I’m in the process of courting her because I really, really want her to be my friend.
While my New Year’s Resolutions were many, generic, and mostly unattainable, Jenn’s New Year’s Resolution was to go to a concert a week. This is how [...]
Tonight, the city pauses for its first snowfall of the year.
Six inches are expected and, for me, that means it is the perfect night to stay in. Though I will say that I’m astonished at the temps back home and how uncomfortably low they are, people in New York are taken aback whenever I complain [...]
So.
I walked out of the crowded subway car and across the street to Yankee Stadium. I texted to tell him I’d arrived. He called to tell me his location.
Since we met at a bar, I could hardly remember what he looked like. I’d looked him up on Facebook - natch - but that hadn’t been [...]

Avril Lavigne? Come on!
I was filling the sides of the kiddy pool with air.
The phone rang.
“What is your favorite Michael Jackson memory?”
And then the caller delivered the news.
Luckily,
I was surrounded by the friends who love Jacko the best. We could appreciate.
So
And then?
(In all seriousness, as odd as his life seemed to have become, we can all appreciate the [...]
“Kiss Me Through the Phone” used to get under my skin.
But.
Like all really bad songs, it grew on me. Love it now. Makes me feel all bouncy.
Just thought I’d share.
I went to see the Tripping Billies - a Dave Matthews cover band so good that if you close your eyes, you might think it’s Dave - a couple nights ago.
While there, an observation was made that - I think - will be important for women everywhere.
Men like bangs.
This is so strange to me because [...]
Fortunately AND unfortunately, several of my friends are going through icky, icky break-ups right about now. The kind that just make your stomach twist. The kind that make you second-guess commitment.
Annnnnyway. Music. It’s my therapy. So, just in case there are others out there infected by this freakin’ epidemic, here’s a decent “Screw you/I am [...]

$50

$400
The list above reflects the money I’ve spent throughout the last year on upkeep for my forced choice of transportation: my car.
And by “upkeep” I mean moving violations and repairs for self-inflicted car injuries.
Par exempla:
One afternoon, I stepped outside and spotted - with a panic - that my tire was losing air. Like, A LOT [...]
