For Your Entertainment



American Idol runner-up, Adam Lambert, is coming out with an album titled " For Your Entertainment". Adam must have been blackmailed to agree to this cover. Only a person with a dirty past involving the murder of innocent puppies would have an album cover that looks like Star Trek meets Rainbow Brite, but that shiznit is crazy. It reminds me of the 3 wolves t shirt (which is also an odd hipster-inspired phenomenon), but if Lambo had his purty face on a tshirt I would rock it too.

ALMOST 25 Years Old

My 25th Birthday is just around the corner, and I am quite unsure of what I want to do. I remember my 10th Birthday, which was my first boy/girl fiesta. I remember my 21st Birthday that happened to be the same night as Alpha Tau Omega's "Menage-A-Tau" party. Then there was last year's Birthday where my closest girly-friends and I went to a yummy dinner at Alta then to Kingswood for drinks and dancing. Because we are all on a budget (especially nowadays) I am thinking of ways to still have a good time, but at bargain prices. I'm thinking a dinner at a BYOB place. Even if there's a corking fee, we could have a few bottles of wine and a long dinner. What do you think?

Chi-Town Bound for Halloween


I randomly decided to post old college pics on FB last week, and I got so nostalgic that I looked on Expedia for tickets to Chicago and found one for $188 over Halloween weekend. It was already late that night, but I emailed the Chicago girls and asked for just one "YES" response. A half hour or so later, I got a "YES" and booked my flight then and there. Can't wait for some house parties and being with my girls!

Sweet Million

NY Lottery has a commercial sweet enough to give you a cavity. Talk about cheesy, yet awesome!
The commercial features a large cast of bunny-wabbits at a carnival, batting their eyelashes, and blowing sweet kisses to their audience. Ok, maybe they were just sitting there and not blowing smooches, but cute nonetheless.

The lyrics of this cutesie commercial?

If you were a candy man with eyes made of gumdrops a heart filled with marzipan then I'd tell you so soft that I wouldn't share 'cause no one can have you but me you're so sweet you're so sweet.

Whomever makes NY Lottery commercials are geniuses! Yes folks, this is not the only fabulously-hilarious commercial...Check this one out (Monkey?)

Alexander McQueen showed off some VERY interesting shoes. Crabby claw feet anyone?

Falling Leaves

The best thing about living in Manhattan is that you don't have to worry about raking the leaves!

Yard Sale Chic: Under $150

Ask any of my friends and they will all tell you I am a bargain hunter. I rarely buy things at full retail, and I will search and search until I find the best deals. This past weekend, I went to one of my fav discount department stores, Loehmann's and I bought the following items for UNDER $150. Yehh for Fall clothing!

- Faux fur vest ($50...and my favorite find of the day!)
- Brown tie ankle booties by Jeffery Campbell (on sale for $35)
- Dark Grey harem pant jumpsuit ($30)
- Yellow cardigan (on sale for $20)
- Dark red and gold bangles (on sale for $6)
- Special socks for heels (on sale for $3)

Go Yankees!

I was fortunate enough to join 50,005 (actual number of attendees) other Yankee fans at Game 2 of the Yankees/Twins playoffs, and I was not at all disappointed. The forecast called for rain, but the weather ended up perfect. The game started off rather slow, and then around the 5th inning or so, it got interesting. It was a close game (Yanks won 4-3), and every second had me at the edge of my seat or up and cheering. I'm not a huge baseball fan, but I always love going to an actual game. I love the fans, food, beer, and company. Thanks to A-Rod and Teixeira (my secret love), the Yanks were victorious. And it just so happens that the Yanks won tonight 4-1. Awesomeness!

Songs I Love: Pretty Girls Make Graves

Pretty Girls Make Graves - The Smiths

I truly believe that I was meant to be some scenester teeny-bopper in the 80's. I will never stop wearing leggings, rock a side pony tail, and will throw my hands in the air and jump around dancing like there's no tomorrow. I love a little synth, fluffy hair, and the whiny-swoony voices of groups from the 80's.

Why does Angie dress daughter Shiloh like the drunken homeless man I see passed out in the subway from time to time?

Lost Squirrel

We ran into a squirrel who lost its way from a land full 0' trees, to a tree-barren Bleeker Street. The fatty squirrel ended up taking refuge on a lone baby tree, and I harassed it to snap a photo. How inhumane of me. I'm sorry Squirrel.

Baby Bottom

One of my oldest and dearest friends, Nicole, has the most precious son. This photo of Skyeler is absolutely hilarious! You can't get much better than a mohawk, a garden hose, and look at that toosh!

No More Handshakes

Because of the H1N1 (Swine Flu) scare, the NBA is discouraging handshakes between players/coaches at the end of games. How then do players show good sportsmanship you ask? Fist pumps and air humps (AKA chest bumps) of course!

Hot Thangs!



Who's hotter these days? BritBrit or KFat? They're both so go-geous, I can't make up my mind.

Goodbye September!

Fall is definitely here. The air is crisp, the coats are coming out, I'm already getting that holiday feeling. I'm a bit sad that I have missed yet another Johnny Appleseed Festival at home. I remember going there when I was young, eating apple fritters and drinking cider. I even bought a lucky rabbit's foot once (who ever thought a rabbit's foot was good luck??) Oh the memories! Anywho...you know what's sad about living in Manhattan? When you smell some smoke, which remind you of burning leaves, only to realize that it can't be leaves and must be a garbage truck or a street meat vendor. Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to pumpkin-flavored everything, layering my clothes, and snuggling into me blanket at night.
