New Year's Meme
In 2008, I gained: a new love, a new apartment, a new sense of confidence, a renewed sense of patriotism, and a little bit of faith. I lost: a best friend, a grandmother, the new love, a few pounds. I stopped: blaming myself for past mistakes. I started: opening up my heart again. I was hugely satisfied by: giving him another shot. And frustrated by: giving him another shot. I am so embarrassed...
mugged.
Last night I was mugged in the Union Square subway station.
I’m hopeful that the perpetrator will be kind and ditch my wallet. I really don’t want to have to get a new ID. I won’t know until next week because it takes that long for anything turned in to the MTA to make it to their lost and found.
Why was I mugged? I had my ipod on and because of the music I was unaware of what...

Better than the original? No way. I love the beer bottles as an instrument though. What do you think?

Update re: Ikea Stockholm Sofa
Many many thanks to all of you who gave me your feedback when I asked if the Ikea Stockholm Sofa is comfortable. The resounding answer is (not so surprisingly) - no.
As Marco stated - when you go to Ikea stick to the hard things.
I went and sat on a Stockholm (and a few mattresses) and even my overflated ass hurt.
Thank you so much for the advice, you saved me from antagonizing ass misery :)

holiday redux 2008.
Here we go…
Food, food, food.
Benjamin Buttons: Good. Long. Good. Predictable. Good.
Slumdog Millionaire: Good. I wish this one hadn’t been hyped to me as much as it was. I think because of that it let me down.
Doubt: Loved. LOVED. Amy Adams is my new girl crush.
Revolutionary Road: LOVED!! My favorite of the lot. THIS is why I am terrified of marriage. There are so many modern...

Only the wisest and stupidest of men never change.
– Confucious
I REFUSE to believe that people can’t change. I think where there is a will, there is always a way. The whole dogs/new tricks cliche doesn’t work for me anymore. There is no reason why you can’t change if you want to and if there is good reason. But maybe…just...

Doubt can be as powerful and sustaining as certainty.
– -Doubt, John Patrick Shanley
I saw this movie tonight (and Slumdog Millionaire - sorry Erin, I liked Doubt more, although Millionaire is good) and it really has caused my entire family to debate and think about the doubt that we all can feel, and that once is triggered…is so very hard to...

The airline massacre continues.
OMFG Us Airways! $@#$#$ I AM SO…
I just went to pull out a sweater to wear for dinner, pulled it over my head and noticed an intense Bond No. 9 Park Avenue smell. At first I thought I just sprayed too much on the last time I wore it, I’ve been known to be excessive at times, then I realized with horror that US Airways has managed to break BOTH my new big beautiful bottles of Bond No....

"it" could really be anything, couldn't it?
“He kept asking what “it” felt like? Dull or sharp? An ache or burn? My head was spinning and naturally I could give him no kind of coherent answer but I remember thinking dimply that it was sort of like the first time I got drunk or slept with a girl, not quite sure what one expected, really, but once it happened one realized it couldn’t be any other way.”

I wasn’t going to continue on the Shaq twitter love parade but I keep reading this over and over. I love it. I hated him on the Lakers, but he is quite quotatious.

Somehow I missed my Tumblr Anniversary! →
320 + pages in a year. Whew. It seems so appropriate that my first post was about Banksy. He’s a favorite. I’ve enjoyed sharing all of my favorites, ups and downs, milestones, moments, highlights, low-lights, random photos, adventures with friends, etc with you. I look forward to what unfolds within the coming year.
It has been grand, tumblr.
