Thank You.

By |January 20th, 2011|Uncategorized|

Okay, so someone learned how to use Photoshop. Yes, this looks like a collage a la 9th grade, but I just wanted to thank all of the very special people in my life who have always made my birthday (and everyday) so very special for me.  I love and appreciate you all. Thank you for being a part of my special day and part of my life!

The List Volume XXVIII

By |November 19th, 2010|The List|

Seeing as Thanksgiving is right around the corner and I do spend quite a bit of time bitching about things sucking, I figured I would make a list of things that I am incredibly thankful for. Here are ten (in mostly no particular order) of the many things I have to be thankful for:

  1. This guy. I do not know how I would function every day without him.
  2. My incredibly wonderful and supportive family… though now I’ve noticed we are long overdue for a family portrait.
  3. Prosecco.
  4. Living in a country where I can say, do, or wear anything I want all while turning on a faucet for clean water.
  5. Having some of the world’s best friends (who don’t mind a theme).
  6. Having had the opportunity to live in one of the best cities in the world (NY, obvi). The experiences are irreplaceable.
  7. Love. Real, true, pure, magical love.
  8. Thongs. No, I’m serious. Can you imagine a lifetime of VPL (visible panty lines)?
  9. Technology: cell phones, computers, TV’s, the INTERNET! How else would you be able to keep up with WhyDid?
  10. Most importantly, everyone who is reading this. A bored at work hobby has turned into more than I ever could have imagined. Couldn’t do it without you.

Count your blessings!

Why Did You Wear That: Double the Pleasure

I’ve been known to find something I like and purchase it in every color. I think I learned this from my mother… but one can’t really be sure. All I do know, is that when you find something fabulous, there’s no harm in doubling up. Check out these sultry silhouettes that come in several shades then stock up!

The List Volume XXIII

By |October 15th, 2010|The List|

I mean, there aren’t enough hours in the day for the annoyances that have shown up on my doorstep this week…

  1. Los Angeles.
  2. This onslaught of hot young actresses in “mom” jeans.
  3. The Real Housewives of DC. I hope there is not a second season.
  4. Ashlee Simpson’s new ‘do. Though her baby’s awfully cute.ashlee-simpson-new-blonde-pixie-bob-hairstyle-240bes101310
  5. WordPress… no, I didn’t need that last draft. No, seriously… it’s fine.
  6. Cat vomit. Thanks, Fluff.
  7. People who blatantly copy WhyDid and people who steal my gays. I mean I can’t.
  8. Zoe Saldana’s Calvin Klein commercial. It makes me really uncomfortable.
  9. People who can not just be happy for others. I do not need your lecture. Just smack me five and let’s move on.
  10. Jessica Simpson… just for good measure.

Luckily, I’m blonde… otherwise you’d be giving me grey hair.

Seeing as I had a mini meltdown only about a week ago, I thought I’d switch things up and make a list of things that make me smile rather than scream. Yeah, in your face.

  1. Puppies in pet store windows. I have my own, but looking never gets old. (Sound familiar, fellas?)IMG00396-20100616-1637
  2. Marshmallows.
  3. Cartoons- but only cartoons of me (obvsies).SadKikinturtlefarm_2
  4. Flowers in NY. It’s like an unexpected kiss on the forehead.IMG00369-20100614-2027
  5. This guy:16570_216134329886_508539886_2899472_2579567_n(www.jasonscat.com)
  6. Pedicures. No idea what you’re snickering to your friend about, but don’t stop doing what you’re doing.
  7. Carousels.  Bet you didn’t know there’s a full timer over at Chelsea Piers, did you?IMG00224-20100530-1848
  8. Having an extra swipe left on your Metro card when you’re in a hurry.
  9. Waking up with “props” and other collected items in your purse. IMG00216-20100529-1500
  10. Leaving the city you love even just for a little.

Wow, that was painful. No worries, the regular “list” will be back next week.
