The List Volume IX

By |July 2nd, 2010|The List|

Tantrum

This list should be twenty rather than ten seeing as I went MIA last week. However, I have decided to keep it short and to the point. (You’re welcome).

  1. Dressing room floors. Band-aids and stray hairs galore. I can’t.
  2. Lady Gaga. I’ve had about enough of her for a little while.
  3. These:IMG_0897Now you’re just abusing the right to dress. (Thanks to Ryan Nickulas for sending along this little sweet treat).
  4. Screaming children on five hour flights. Control your offspring. Thanks.
  5. Taking your shoes off at airport security. There’s gotta be another way.
  6. And these:IMG00066-20100702-1539Yep, an entire wall of “jean” leggings. I believe they are calling these “jeggings.”
  7. Dreadlocks on white people. I’m talking to you, Crystal Bowersox. CrystalBowersox
  8. People who don’t refill the Brita/Pur/whichever pitcher. I’m thirsty too, jackass.
  9. Morning breath.
  10. Promoter text messages. I’m damn near forty. Please stop. I can’t sit through a din with 19 year old models anymore.

Until next week… Happy Fourth.

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.

The List Volume VII

By |June 4th, 2010|The List|

overit

I nearly had to make a top 20 list this week seeing as I had already filled eight of ten spots by Tuesday. But alas, here is the abridged version:

  1. Feet on the window or dashboard while in an automobile. Really?BF0018-001
  2. Denim cut offs to the knee. All I want to do is hand you a Bud Light in a coozie. who told you this was cute, let alone flattering?Isabel-Lucas-diesel-jeans-cut-off-shorts-JT-1mary-kate-olsen-boyfriends-house-03
  3. People who come up and touch my dog without asking and without ever acknowleding my presence. Hi.
  4. People who bark at my dog. That’s just weird. Do you speak dog? **sidenote: my ex once barked at a man who was chatting me up when he came back from the bathroom. That was pretty funny (but also weird).
  5. Long natural nails. fake nails are gross, but these are grosser. I want to call the health dept.longnails
  6. Belly button jewelry. Time to move on, people. This was cool when Britney was relevant.
  7. Girls who ‘whooo.’ I’m talking to you, Bachelorette Ali.
  8. Inane Facebook status updates. I don’t need to know that you’re tired, you stubbed your toe, or you need more coffee. Unless you’re sharing a cappuccino with Jay-Z, Jigga Man, himself, don’t bother updating us.
  9. People who think they are famous. You’re not. It’s cool, I’m not either. Nor is the majority of the population.
  10. Smiley faces made like this =) It is a colon : not an equal sign =

ugh. Life’s hard. Have a good weekend.

Thank goodness we have a long weekend… cause it sure has been a long week.

  1. The poles with buttons you are supposed to push to cross the street. They’re bullshit. Nothing ever happens. They’re just there to make you think they care.78405618
  2. People who bump/bodyslam into you on the street and don’t apologize. We aren’t doing tackle drills. Relax.
  3. Men in bandanas. The only men who can pull off  bandanas are Smitty and Bret Michaels: DSCN0112
  4. Smacking trees and other inanimate objects when running. Is this a Foursquare check in I didn’t know about?
  5. Office birthday cake. I don’t even wanna celebrate with you, so don’t judge me when I don’t indulge in your shitty cake. If I’m gonna splurge, it’s going to be on Strip House’s Famous Chocolate Cake.Striphouse__ChocolateCAke2_v1_13_-_Version_2
  6. Katy Perry’s new song, California Gurls. A) you spelled it wrong. B) it sucks. C) No, it’s not cause I’m biased.
  7. Shrapnel that flies off the streets of NY rendering me blind and incidentally causing me to be one of the jerks who doesn’t know how to walk properly on the sidewalk.
  8. Parents who make their kids wear Crocs. Just cause you ruined your life doesn’t mean you should ruin theirs. kellytaylors1
  9. Twitter. I think I’m over you. Apparently, no one cares what I have to say (seeing as I have the same # of followers as I did in 2008) and it really hurts my feelings when someone “unfollows” me. Did I say something to offend you?
  10. Jesse James. Shut. Up.

Enjoy the holiday, kiddos. Don’t forget your sunscreen and headphones to block out the incessant babble of those around you.

  6. The phrase, “We’ve got them by the short and curlies.”
  7. Ocho Cinco’s flesh colored DWTS outfit. Prob. what did him in.Picture 1
  8. Ocho Cinco’s new dating show.
