few shows have the power to induce the ugly cry. it's funny, for how emotional of a gal i am, i tend to conserve my tears with regards to television programming. i've never cried during a bachelor finale proposal (ew, why would i waste my tears on that?) or well, during any reality tv show ...
my awards show has a first name…
it's o-s-c-a-r... so last night was the academy awards. the oscars. hollywood's biggest night. and for the most part they were pretty uneventful. and in case you missed them, the three-hour broadcast can be deduced down to the following sentence: we all need to go see hugo and the academy likes to give awards away to old ...
pretty dresses, pizza & pure barre
so i may or may not be really excited for this weekend. (let's be honest, i'm excited for any and every weekend). but perhaps this one just a bit more than most for the fact that its calendared events plan to be epic. well maybe not epic, i feel that word gets a tad bit overused, so let's go ...
fashion fearlessness
i wrote this post back in the fall for an online publication. though they promised they would use it, they never did (cue "wah wah" sound effect). but their loss is your gain. because i've decided that it still deserves internet exposure. so, there. i never believed i was quite "cool" enough to don a fedora. ...
did you really just ask that?
things that i am thankful for: friends and family who refrain from judgement and/or derogatory comments if when i inevitably ask a seemingly ridiculous question. (see also: google) take for instance last night. as i drove home from dinner with dear friends, i called my mom to chat (don't worry, i was using my blue tooth). and ...
she must deep-condition
i love the internet. for so many reasons. most notably when it leads me to articles such as this. because suddenly, a) the world doesn't feel so small (and i really like it when that happens) because i can't help but be bonded by anyone who shares as deep of a love as i do toward anything ...
penning a new future
i have learned that life doesn't come with a reset button. and though she sang a lovely song about her attempts at finding one, cher did not find a way to turn back time. but despite the fact that "be kind, please rewind" doesn't apply to life's events, on occasion, if we're lucky, we are doled out ...
welcome to the world, blue ivy carter
this weekend maya rudolph returned to her snl roots, this time, as the night's guest hostess. and her performance was nothing short of spectacular (duh). but of all of the skits she participated in on saturday (and she rocked them all), this one takes the cake by a landslide. and throw in the cameo from mr. ...
i just want out of these pants: stories from the dressing room and beyond
there i was, standing in the handicap stall at work in a full-on fight. i'm not even kidding, guys, it was a real battle. so who was on the receiving end of this lover's quarrel? oh that would be none other than my "no limit" tank from lululemon: yes folks, though i have worn this garment as part ...
reviews, ramblings and an ode to george & abe
so if you haven't noticed (and totally fine if you truly haven't, i realize your life does not revolve around reading my blog, though part of me kind of wishes it did...), i haven't been posting as often. and while things have definitely picked up a bit at work (hooray!), it hasn't been due to ...
