During my obligatory WHAT AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE OH MY GOD WHO AM I post-college quarter-life-crisis period that I am totally still in the middle of, I considered a handful of different hypothetical career options. I have spent the better part of the last year working in education-related jobs. The question was always: […]
This is supposed to be the part where I talk about Coachella and how much fun I had with Yvonne and, you know, my actual real live non styrofoam friends and siblings and even a fellow blogger in California. Because the short answer is: OHMYGODSOMUCHFUCKINGFUNYOUDON’TEVENKNOW. (I mean, of course you don’t know. Because I haven’t […]
And then there was Sunday. If this upcoming weekend weren’t Coachella, I might just say it’s time for me to pack up the April Adventures, because I’m not sure how I could ever top this. Although, I am posting this days after writing it — probably from my phone at a truck stop somewhere in New Mexico. […]
I love birthdays. It’s not the whole “Oh let’s celebrate me” aspect. I mean, fine, I joke with my mom and sister that their excitement over my birth should flow over into weeks of celebration because a single day couldn’t possibly contain it. But a holiday is a holiday. My freshman roommate had a September […]
I have a friend who we shall call Vodka. I’ve already talked about my former roommate named Vagina, and I have a blog, so it is inevitable that I should also have a friend named Vodka. I scoured the interwebs in search of the picture that really ought to be our “friendship” picture on Facebook, […]
This is my second post this week, which is a rare thing. I am unlikely to make a habit of this. Credit it to the fact that my two posts together add up to less than the word count of any of my more recent preceding posts. Recently, I was fortunate enough to win one […]
I think I had this idea that once I graduated from college, I would become an adult. Once I moved my tassel to the other side of my hat, a panoply of my most immature shortcomings would miraculously disappear. It didn’t happen that way. So then I thought, “Well that’s because they haven’t mailed me […]
I believe that when I wake up in the morning I should be allowed to think one of two things in order to will myself out of bed: (1) I know it’s early, but you’re getting paid today. Remember how broke you are? Oh and those kids are pretty awesome. Get up. Get your coffee. […]
While I was in college I did a lot of tie-dye. More tie-dye than one would expect from my school. It is a fairly liberal institution, but it’s hardly the artsy-fartsy tree-hugger mecca one would expect from my college tie-dye wardrobe. For GW students, this tie-dye is readily explained by the amount of time I […]
“I can’t remember the last time I went to a bar. I also can’t remember the last time I got drunk.” Things I said Thursday evening: both of those statements. Things that are no longer true: both of those statements. I have decided that maybe everyone else I know doesn’t want their business all over […]
