Souvenirs.

Some of you may have been wondering what tacky souvenir I got my BFF and Cockpit Comrade Katie when I was Up North the other weekend.
Let me tell you, reader - there was a lot to choose from. When we drove past THIS PLACE:

I knew. This is where I’d find it. Little did I know [...]

Relax, Dad. I spent two dollars.

This evening, I had dinner with my dad at On The Border, because Randy LOVES HIM A CHAIN RESTAURANT. This was our first face-to-face since my frog-throated, “Hey, Dad? I kind of don’t have a job anymore” phone call. Like most only children, I have this crippling fear of letting my parents down. I had [...]

New Addictions.

Disclaimer: If you are a dude, there’s really nothing for you in this entry, as it is obscenely girly. Alas, it’s NaBloPoMo, and sometimes I don’t have anything to write about except how one shade of lipstick can take you from “classic” to “slutty.”

I don’t really go shopping, per se.  My entire wardrobe [...]

The Etsy Bitsy Spider Ran Up Jenn’s Charge Card

I am a sucker for free spirits.
I stumbled upon the blog of Megan McIsaac, a peculiarly awesome chick, through some photos that she took of Neal Casal from The Cardinals. Megan McIsaac is that girl that catches your eye from across the room and you just sigh and say, “Shit. I want to BE her.”

A [...]

Huhuh, I said “package.”

I needed a pair of comfy, yet cute, shoes to wear on the plane tomorrow. (Sidenote: I’m going to San Francisco tomorrow! Weee!) I know, there’s a whole thing about being “comfortable” on an aircraft, but I travel infrequently, so I like to look fabulous while I’m doing it.  I don’t feel like a sexy traveller in my [...]

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 [...]

A Woman’s Right to Shoes. For $10.

After work today I trekked down to the Washington Square Mall.  This is what I do now, in Indianapolis, until I find out where the cool places are — I go to one of its 239487234 malls. [So Midwestern! It's like Tiffany will show up any second!]  This mall in particular had a Steve and Barry’s, which [...]

Make sure I have all my papers
Laying out my summer clothes
Search for traps in vain like scratching
So my suitcase I can close

Today, I start packing for my trip to Hawaii…
… I went to the mall today in search of perfect brown wedge sandals.  After two hours, I finally found THE pair, but the sales associate [...]

Punk!

I bought this skirt at Target last weekend:

And I cannot stop wearing it.  I would wear it to work, the bars, bed, everywhere.  I’m like that little kid you see out in public with his Spiderman pajamas because his mom can’t get him to take them off.
Ha! Reminds me…
I stumbled upon this lady’s blog and [...]

Shameless.

If you all loved me you’d chip in and buy me this:

damn sir walter raleigh

I overdrew my account once my transaction from Art.com posted, but I’d like to think it was well worth it for this Andy Warhol art print:
