Thanksgiving Destinations
Despite my wanderlust, earthlings, I am not a traveler. I wish I were, I do. It is a great source of embarrassment to me that I, one who probably too frequently voices my love for “travel,” cannot HANDLE the one and a half hour ride from Grand Central to Brewster Village on Metro-North.
I should clarify: I love “travel” in that douche-y way that rich people who want to feel more worldly do. My...

Back by Popular Demand
Due to recent facetious death threats requests that I start writing on my blog again, I have decided to get off my ass, by which of course I mean grab a beer (like a BRO) and sit down, and write for you people. Life is so hard. Speaking of life, I suppose you’d like an update on the severe mundanity which I endure on a day-to-day basis. Here goes:
I’m graduating from college in 20...

In which I blatantly judge people...
Oh possums, the good thing about me actually having work to do is that when I don’t feel like doing it I entertain you. And a good thing about me not having any friends is that I watch the SAG Awards Red Carpet, wish I had a fancy party to go to, and judge other people on their fashion. Ooooh yes, if you have any sort of deductive reasoning skills at all you may have surmised what this...
The Tank Engine
I’m not entirely sure what it is about over-crowded trains that makes me whip out my computer and write. Perhaps it’s the uncompromising attitude of the gentleman sitting across from me and apparently deserves all of the leg room. I mean it when I say that my legs are in the isle. Yet, despite the fact that I am being a complete fire hazard right now, the people around me just smiled at me in...

Fears, Amazement, and a little Sing-a-long
I am fearful that this blog will simply turn into a blog of lists. I like to list things, mostly because of my obsessive compulsive propensity to categorize things… hahaha ahhhh isn’t my mental disorder entertaining?! Whimper. ANYWHO, I’m going to ignore this fear and make another top 10! yayyyyy
I’ve been listening to a lot of music that I haven’t heard in a while...
A Guide to Successful Procrastination
The angel on my shoulder is nagging, nagging, nagging, but as Billy Joel once said I’d rather laugh w/ the sinners than die with the saints. Alors, instead of working on a paper or reading or the million other things that I should do but can get away with putting off, HERE I am! Did you miss me? I missed me, I’ve been cooped up in my apartment freaking out about my future so much that...

I feel a rant coming on. Does it REALLY annoy anyone else when “successful adults” say things like “I don’t know why you college kids are so stressed out all the time!” I mean really? reeeeally?
Yeah, no it couldn’t possibly have anything to do with people who say thoughtless things like that to kids who have been working their asses off because of the...

ANXIETY ATTACK.
Why is it that every episode of Hoarders has at least one putrefied cat amongst the rubble of the house?! Sometimes I get the whole hoarding thing, at least when people just have a mass of stuff but at least their house isn’t literally filthy, but when there is actual shit everywhere…STOP.
I need to shower
*Disclaimer: Dear Hoarders, I’m not judging you. That’s not...

Whoever came up with the four-day weekend is my hero. Nay, the love of my life!
This weekend, I have returned to Connecticut for some much needed R&R and because I want my mommy and daddy and hot mulled cider and nature. It’s amazing how stressful doing absoutely nothing but stress out about all the stuff you should be doing can be! The only time I was relaxed this week was when Glee...
The Little Bog Children
It’s days like this that make up the memory of my childhood :

My Imminent Fame and My New Husband.
Possums,
Let’s discuss fashion for a second, shall we? Some of you may know that if I were to be friends with any movie star, and then steal their personal stylist, it would be Carey Mulligan. I’m obsessed with everything she wears and I would like it in my closet… but, as I cannot afford anything that doesn’t come from Target at the moment, I will just have to wait...
I am a responsible adult.
Possums,
Senior year of university is stressful. Mostly because I’m afraid that I’m going to get screwed over for credits. But also because I’m going to have to act like an adult. I mean I’m already sitting here making dinner, drinking a glass of wine, watching the news… what more do you want from me! Oh, a job.
SO here is my life plan, given that I don’t...
Martha, Martha, Martha!
No, I’m not a Brady Bunch character speaking w/ a lisp! I’m a super awesome best friend who listens to all of her FBs (future bridesmaids) business plans… and finds ways to hilariously implement them.
So, when one of my lovely FBs, who is consequently named Martha, suggested creating a weblog with a Martha Stewart for 20-somethings concept, I totally spazzed over the ample...
The 2nd Second Attempt
Possums, we all know that I am a bit of a failure at blogging. But I’m going to try this time. I mean, really try.
The only trouble is I very rarely have anything to write about because I don’t think anyone will find it interesting.

There's a Darkness in me that's Flooded with Light
So the past days have been sorta sad, but my family is crazy and finds a way to make everything hilarious. and better.
Kate: “We’re gonna rent a boat, and get drunk on it…. I’m serious. He didn’t want a wake. He wanted a party cruise. He made a guest list.”
