My Important Thoughts on the Presidential Debate

By On October 17, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In in the news

I watched a half hour of last night’s Presidential debate. And then I got stabby and had to stop watching. Luckily, the Kardashians were on E!, so I got to calm down and go to bed without screaming.

 

One of the major criticisms of the last debate, despite being “domestic issues” focused, was that [...]

Q: Wow, did you just post?

A: Yes.

 

Q: Really? Because I’m pretty sure you forgot how to blog.

A.: The post is real. I’m hoping for more regular updates, but make no promises. And blogging is like riding a bike; you never really forget HOW. More of you misplaced your helmet and forgot [...]

The Well-Man Visit–Most women visit the gynecologist at least once a year for a check up that includes cancer screenings, STD checks, and overall discussions of sexual health.

Salon posted a great list of 10 bands I will be forced to listen to in Hell. I don’t necessarily agree with any/all of these (ahem, PEARL JAM???!!!), but I enjoyed the concept. Especially since, let’s be honest, we’re all going to hell for one reason or another. So, here is the soundtrack [...]

By On April 12, 2012 · 1 Comment · In working hard

I was cleaning up the other day and ran across one of my old notebooks from a project several jobs ago.  Flipping through (read: procrastinating from cleaning further), I found the meeting minutes I was taking for a tanking project with an inept manager. Apparently I was not very impressed as I penned these literary [...]

Bond Girl on a Budget

By On April 6, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In fashion

I love James Bond. I love the cheesy movies, young Sean Connery, and I even love the video games. I’ve always wanted to like martinis–shaken not stirred, of course. And I love the excuse to pop in a picture of Daniel Craig (happy Friday!)

On a recent trip across the pond to visit our fair Mags, I caught sight of these AMAZING shoes.  In case the picture below does not do them justice, they are nude pumps, with 2 inch teal platforms, a teal heel with metal spikes, and a neon green 6 inch heel. I don’t have a [...]
