I got a food processor for Christmas. I used it for the first time tonight.
Edamame hummus paired with spiced pita chips. Woot.
There’s Your Karma.

Here to Help Perpetuate the “Women are Bad Drivers” Stereotype!
I got the Silver Bullet my junior year of high school. We’ve been through a lot. The good, the bad, and the…well —
Also? Can we note the “color” specification on my rental car?
Touche, Enterprise. Quite appropriate.

Beep-beep, beep-beep, yeah.
As if getting into a car accident is bad enough, I got into a car accident on my way to STARBUCKS. The Starbucks that isn’t even directly on my way to work. I had to go OUT OF MY WAY for a $5 cup of coffee, that I never even got, because I t-boned some [...]

G.A.M.E. N.I.G.H.T.
It started when I commented on Brooke’s abundance of obscure 90s trivia. “You are so on my trivial pursuit pop culture team,” I had said.
It was decided that we needed a game night, and Jana was gracious enough to host.
We begin game night with wine and various delicious appeteasers enjoyed by all.
Winos!
Jana with tasty, tasty [...]

All Dogs Go to Heaven
Aw, why do they gotta advertise for THIS WEBSITE on the LiveJournal log in page? It made me incredibly sad, leading me to think about the awesomest dog ever, Bunky (1977-1991).
He was a golden retriever and border collie mix. He looked kind of like this ===>
Except he wasn’t a warlock.

Sweet Dreams are NOT Made of This…
I had a dream last night in which I was attending an elementary school reunion of sorts. We were in a classroom but were not sitting at desks, but on beds. One of our teachers was speaking, but while we were all in our twenties, she had not aged a day. In the front of the [...]

Black cat/Nine lives/short days/long nights**!
Just to wrap up…black cat crossed my path this morning –
+ Free truffle from the Best Chocolate in town
+ Awesome joyride downtown with Jana and Katie in 65 degree weather
- got into big fight with boyfriend
- I only have a two point lead on my faffarazzi team, and now that Nicole Kidman is preggers, I [...]

Tonight will be fine, will be fine, will be fine…
I find that when something is only mildly upsetting to me, I will blow up like a madwoman. (Someone cuts me off in traffic, my steak is overcooked, my cowlick won’t lie flat.) I will cuss, and throw things, and sometimes, in true tantrum fashion, thrash around and stomp my feet. These are [...]

Seriously?
A black cat crossed my path this morning. It literally waited until I rounded the corner, looked straight at me, and then proceeded to cross the street, like, “Aaaaaand go.”
I am unaffected thus far. I even got a free chocolate truffle for breakfast so… Jenn 1, Black Cat 0.

When You Need A Pick Me Up..
I stumbled upon this when I was looking for videos of Sufjan Stevens. WILL YOU RELEASE ANOTHER ALBUM ALREADY? (Apparently he is in a Musical Renaissance. Alright, well, let’s hear it, Suffy.)

Fatties!
Damon grilled burgers last night in the frigid cold. SO worth it.
Also, Rona smokin’ a doobie.

A Shutterbug’s Life
Opening the plasticy bubble wrap around the lens of my new Nikon D40 was like Christmas times 1931923487123947123.
Waiting for the battery to charge is like that time you got that sah-wheet Barbie convertible Christmas morning that took like, nine D batteries and what do ya know, we don’t have any D batteries, you’re just going [...]

You Don’t Bring Me Flowers Anymore
I may or may not have mentioned this, but at my cousin’s wedding last spring, I caught the bouquet.
Let me preface this by saying that I think the tradition of the bouquet toss at the wedding is a beautiful one. [long ago, it was believed that certain herbs contained in a bouquet held good luck, and it [...]

Media Motherf*ckers.
These are My Girls, aka, the Ladies With Whom I Work - I’m not sure when I started calling them “My Girls,” possibly just this second.
Left to Right - Bess, Jana, Katie, Me, Brooke.
This wasn’t a special occasion. We dress like this every day.
Many jellow shots later…

Best Year Evaaaaaarrrrr
I’ve decided that I have to start blogging every day if I ever want to become Carrie Bradshaw. (yes, become – like I’d actually turn in to her – bone-thin, smoking. I do have the contemplative look down. And the incessant questioning.) I realize I got through the entire holidays with nary a blog entry, [...]
