Thanks, eHow
My man-panion-for-life and I were joking around the other day that we should get some of those temporary tattoos for the holidays — but like snarky custom ones. And, being the Vanderpump Rules fans that we are, we knew exactly what we wanted to get. That’s right, we’d like to show up at the parent’s…

Don’t Know How to Convey Your Annoyance Via Text? Go With a PoEmoji
FAKT: I have never used an emoji. I actually don’t even know how to. Are they on my phone somewhere? I am old and decrepit and have no idea. Maybe they’re housed on my Life Alert. I recently read that some new emojis are being considered and it got me thinking about which ones I…

Scuba Diving Can Absolutely Kill You: Bali Edition
Our vacation to Bali wasn’t all delicious food and kite flying. I also cheated death. Fine. That might be a bit dramatic. But it sure felt like I could have easily died while scuba diving in Bali. Here are four signs that scuba diving in Bali might not be for you. 1) Your PayPal account…

Don’t Be That Girl: Fall Fail
I know you can barely see her blurry image in the top right hand of this cell phone picture I snapped yesterday evening on my way home, but trust me on this: this girl in this picture is hella excited for fall. She’s got her green striped sweater on. She’s wrestled her way into a…

Don’t Be That Girl – 10 Tips on How to Act at the Spa
I went to the spa this past weekend to get a massage. I went to my preferred place, the Lorien. I like the Lorien for a couple of reasons, but primarily: it’s pretty. It’s part of a Kimpton Hotel, so it’s sleek and soothing. The spa is located in the basement, down a long corridor,…

Eyelid All Red, Better Head Back to Bed
Growing up in the South means growing up with a lot of, uhhm, well, I guess you’d call them superstitions or wives tales. If you have a sore white bump on your tongue, well, that’s a lie bump, caused by telling fibs. Freckles are where the angels kissed you (although why the angels felt it…

Friday Links: Lazy Sunday Edition
Since I let XFE take over the blog on Friday, I’m a bit late on links. But there were a few illuminating things on the Interwebs this week, including fancy planes and flight attendants, an apparatus for lazy eating, and a fear-mongering infographic. (XFE fans – don’t worry: he’ll be back with another post on…

Disproportionate Excitement: Jeans Day at Work
I have a few more posts on Peru, but let’s take a little break to discuss something even more exciting and earth shaking than pisco sours and ancient ruins. Last Friday was Jeans Day at work. This is a very big deal. Honestly, HR could have told me they had installed a kitten playpen next…

Lunchtime Quick Hit: Lululemon, Sand Boarding

Just a quick little post because I absolutely could not let the ongoing Lululemon tights-worn-as-workout-gear news pass. Ladies and investors, do not be angry at Lululemon. See-through yoga pants are a national epidemic, as I’ve pointed out here and here. If, however, you feel your trust has been betrayed and you simply must be angry,…

Thanks for the Memories, Glitsy: Porktober 2012
*Let me start by apologizing for the photos. I was very lackadaisical about taking pictures, so I stole the majority of these from other people, so there’s some variance in terms of size, especially. There was a crime at this weekend’s Porktober. A crime against humanity. Someone ate all of the mozzarella out of the…
