Confession Wednesday
I am TERRIBLE at money managing. I am TERRIBLE at budgeting. I am currently in a heaping lot of debt because of these two facts.
2012 started off so well. Then I had a 4 day weekend and now I have $90 to last me through 2 weekends that include the following:
Work outing
Birthday Broadway outing
Friend’s birthday outing
NFL playoffs
Groceries
The worst part is that I never end...

Eeesh.

Things that are bullshit:
neffsays:
Buying the members of a couple individual gifts (because, you know, they are separate entities and I treat them as such), and they, in return, give gifts as a couple.
This is whiny and comes off as gift-grabby, I get it, but it frustrates me around Christmas.
Seconded
$1 Gift Cards on Restaurant.com →
With PROMO CODE: JOY. I got 4 $25 gift cards for $4. Amazeballs.
Ya’ll - my brother called me this morning (he works there!) and I’ve been dying to share all day but the site was running slow. Do it now. There are tons of restaurants in all major cities. Usually $10 for $25 credit, today it is only $1-$3. You can also get $25 Restaurant.com gift cards for $1.50. LOVE.

Reblogging b/c I NEED these 3 things. Thanks for doing the digging Meg!

JCrew glitter iPhone 4 case in gold.
Cashmere EchoTouch glove in black. It gets cold in New York and what will I do when I’m walking down the street and I need to skip the creepy John Wayne Gacy song on Come on Feel The Illinoise? TAKE OFF MY GLOVES?

Today I am Blissfully happy
I woke up this morning and all but skipped to work. After such a hard couple of years, I am grateful to be in a place where I can feel myself getting back to normal. As I walked to the subway station, I realized that I was just so, so happy.
During my sabbatical, I made sure to spend a lot of time trying to figure out what would make me happy. Once I figured it out, I was purposeful in trying to...

Unpopular Opinions
Things I discussed at Brooke’s Tumblr meetup last night:
How I hate nail polish
How I hate Harry Potter
How I hate Erin Condren planners
How I haven’t read the Hunger Games
How I think Ryan Gosling looks weird and skinny
How I would not fly across country for a nationwide Tumblr meetup (Sorry Kristin)
I’m clearly the BEST.PERSON.EVER. to invite to tumblr parties.
I Miss...
Lately I’ve had so many moments where missing someone overwhelms me to the point I have had to stop and take a deep breath. It’s in a Saturday morning brunch that I miss an old friend. In the middle of a football game or a family holiday that I miss my brother. In a night of Chipotle and How I Met Your Mother that I miss a former boyfriend. In a work dilemma that I miss several former...

2012 Reminder
You hate Thanksgiving. You hate it the most in Arkansas. No matter how much you want to see your munchkin nephew, it won’t be worth it. You’ll be bored and pissed off before Thursday even comes and you’re forced to be nice to a slew of old relatives. Do not cave in. Thanksgiving is NOT worth it. You are much happier in your apartment with your friends. Love 2011 Kendyl

Monday Check In (on Tuesday)
I billed 80 hours last week and I’ve been a bit slammed and crazy, so give me a break.
Obsessing over: Lysistrata Jones. I seriously want everyone ever to see this show and be proud of my amazing friend!
Working on: Event recaps from last week’s Viacom Entertainment event and Mommy blogger programs. Fascinating.
Thinking about: bills, how to become a millionaire, my trip home...
On Savoring and Relishing
Tonight - one of my best friends and 11 other REALLY talented people get to watch their dream come true. If you do ONE thing today - READ THIS ARTICLE by Douglas Carter Beane, the creator of lysistrata Jones and Sister Act.
And even though I’m in Boston chasing my own dreams, I am so so ridiculously proud of this cast and my friend!

Weekend Celebrations
This weekend was filled with cheering, yelling, hugs, high fives, more yelling, and SO much excitement!
LSU beat Alabama in the biggest college football game of the year. I lost an earring, got beer sprayed all over me during overtime and came home with a purple and gold lei that I did not buy myself.
Arkansas crushed South Carolina causing me to shout Woo Pig Sooie one too many times at the...

Everyone has been talking about this show so today I finally picked it up on demand. I literally LOVE everything about it. I finished the first episode just in time to catch the second at 8 pm. If you’re not watching, you’re missing out.
