the consensus re: the tights is sheer black!
thanks, everyone!
will try to provide photos this time.
what kind of tights should i wear with a cute...
i think black tights would be too severe. WHAT DO I DO?
yes, i bought a dress specifically for a date. i forgot what it was like to actually like and want to impress someone/have them think you’re cute. it’s WEIRD, YOU GUYS.
How Does Travel Work?
You don’t really need a travel agent. I fly a fair amount and have flown a lot and have always booked my own travel and done okay.Some people suggest waiting till the last minute but I don’t think it’s safe to rely on last minute fares, a month or two in advance seems to yield the best results.
My advice would be to check kayak.com (this looks up all the airlines at once), use...
pandering
sick all day, slept all day, naturally can’t sleep now that it is night time. seem to have eliminated this weird little bug for the most part, which you know, thank God, since i leave for SF in two days. read this hilarious book megan allison bought me called mayflower madam, that i think was the plot for one of the very first law and order episodes.

lots of jokes made at my expense yesterday
my cousin does this weird underminey thing where she loves to talk about what a wanton hussy i am in front of other people. which bugs, because you know, it’s a little something called LIFE EXPERIENCE. try being single for more than 5 minutes and you’ll see what happens.
however, as the only woman left in my family who has learned how to have sex and not get pregnant, i think i win....
not to be all insensitive
but I’ve had to watch the news a few times for work in the past few weeks, and I am baffled at the press coverage David Goldman has received over his international custody battle. It also seems racist to me, the talk about how awful the “Brazilians” are. Is there something especially odd about this case? Why so much attention? Is he a journalist?
i have a few holiday cards left. does anyone want...
i personalize them, so i’ll write you a little story/lame ass joke.
progress?
Astounding myself with the adult way I’ve been acting lately. Perhaps there is a way to solve a problem like Maria, after all.

i live in new jersey, where we can’t buy alcohol on sundays. so really, i’m living vicariously through you.

Two days in, around my family, and I’ve already gone to a bourbon-only diet. Trust me when I say I’m living vicariously through your posts. Mazeltov.
WatchNo, seriously. Watch it. Now.

i want to go on a tropical vacation next year....
keep in mind, i am not outdoorsy. i just like to look at pretty landscapes.

guys forget handholding or kissing, the most...
Agreed.

last night i had a weird incident
on the way home where i felt really weird about a guy walking behind me in fort lee. there were no taxis at the bridge plaza like they usually are, so i had to call my aunt to come get me. luckily, there is a 24 hour walgreen’s right on that block and i ducked in there and read magazines. i don’t even know what this dude’s deal was, but i always go on my instinct and if i...

Earlier tonight Maggie said, “Daddy, I finally installed GreaseMonkey on my own Firefox.” (On the little netbook she shares with her brother.)

Changed the theme on this blog to be this cheesy teenage girl obsessed with Amelie theme. I love it. I kind of fell off the “real blogging” radar, but that’s what happens when you get a J-O-B. It’s…

you are not gluten intolerant or allergic to wheat (unless you have celiac disease or a PROVEN ALLERGY). you’re just anorexic and want to avoid carbs. just say it.

I haven’t been able to make it back to In The Flesh since I read back in July, but I count it as one of the best things I did this year.
AND reading there led to an old flirtation coming back to life in a major way. My friend, who I’d been somewhat involved in 2007 and who I magically have somehow happened to stay friends with, happened to be visiting NYC the same time. Initially, I...

Annoyed my beloved Copenhagen is getting its name dragged through the mud thanks to this global warming convention orgy/fiasco. It’s really a lovely place and 95% of its restaurants are buffets. Or as they say: a smorgasbord.
WISH I WAS IN EUROPE RIGHT NOW INSTEAD OF NEW JERSEY.
Oh well, I’ll deal.

LPN OR RN
That’s so cool! I worked with nurses for 4 years and they are under appreciated and AWESOME. I really thought I was going to be a nurse for a while, but I have no aptitude for science or math. If I were you (forgive the unsolicited advice here), I would try for the RN, much more flexibility w/r/t jobs and if you get your AA, later on you can get your BSN, which also opens a lot of doors.

There’s something really.. “off” about Amanda Knox. I don’t think she killed her roommate, but I think she had something to do with it. Also, sounds like Italy is kind of fucked with its judicial system. Always wonder what this case would be like if the defendant weren’t a cute American girl, but say, a not-so-cute American girl, or a black American boy studying in...

I’ll admit.. I thought she was fake this whole time and was kind of sad when it came out she was real. But only because I love a good Internet hoax. Anyway, I like what she wrote today. The end.
