You need to relax. I'm addicted to shopping, not meth. #whitegirlproblems
Does anyone remember Teeny Little Super Guy from Sesame Street? I have absolutely no idea what made me think of him today, but I totally need a set of glasses with all the characters. It’s amazing how one little clip can take you back to your childhood (and only someone that is officially creeping up on their 30′s can say that – urgh).
I heard they were playing clips on Nick. Can anyone with kidlets confirm or deny?
Just imagine how thrilled I was when Mike asked if I wanted to go to the Chicago Auto Show for Valentine’s Day. Yeah, not very.
I get where the idea came from, and in theory it’s good. I have a 2010 Prius on order and it’s been unveiled and will be on display at the show, but besides spending 10 minutes looking at my soon-to-be new car, spending a holiday all about love and romance at an auto show isn’t very lovey-dovey.
I nicely said that I didn’t want to go, so crisis adverted, but what’s your worst Valentine’s Day story? Eat at a greasy spoon? Get a bouquet that had more baby’s breath than roses? A box of nasty cherry cordial candies?
Worst Valentine’s Day story, judged by Mike and I, gets a copy of the soundtrack to he’s just not that into you! It can be your story, your friend’s story, or a story that’s not really all that bad in the grand scheme of things.
Contest ends Saturday at midnight, just in case this is the worst Valentine’s Day ever.
Please enter a valid first name and email address when entering. Not responsible for invalid entry information. Must comment with your worst Valentine’s Day story to be eligable. US and Canada.
PS – Sorry for making a contest out of your big Valentine’s Day plans, Mike. Hearts.
Get ready to get dirty with Anthony Bourdain, because tonight’s episode of No Reservations is a solid hour of some of the most titillating and tantalizing foods from around the world. Otherwise known as…food porn.
There’s a little something for everyone in this episode of No Reservations, and like Tony says “it’s just filthy.” In a good way, of course.
Tune in tonight at 10pm EST and you might just get some Valentine’s Day ideas courtesy of No Reservations!
I drove 13 hours round-trip, was the only person without kids, skipped the pajama party out of principle, and had cold showers both mornings, but you know what…I had a great time at Blissdom.
I attended all of the Maven panels and everyone was interesting and engaging, and it was nice to be around so many other bloggers for the very first time. I picked up a few tips and came home with some new ideas, but most of the information reinforced what I already knew or assumed, and a little validation feels good.
And as a perk, I just finished reading Such a Pretty Fat by Jen Lancaster, and she just so happened to be the keynote speaker! I could have lived without Yanni Voices, but I’m definitely digging Chris Mann.
Here’s just a few of the people I met in the lats 48 hours…
If you were there, too, let me know! If I gave you my card, leave a comment! And don’t forget to follow me on Twitter!
Oh, and a big shout out to the woman in room #308. Were you sick or was it a case of too many Blisstinis? Because hearing you vomit at 2 am was about as much fun for me as it was for you. Hope you feel better!
I did take one picture. Just to prove I really was there and wasn’t living vicariously through Twitter.
I had no idea the Miss American pageant was even on last night, but evidently Miss Indiana won for the first time in the pageant’s 88 year history. Unfortunately, Katie Stam didn’t work on her winning face before they announced her name. How tragic.
And I wasn’t being sarcastic, either. From the pictures on the pageant site, it looks like she’s a very cute girl when she’s not screaming like she’s in a horror flick.
EDIT: Apparently Miss America doesn’t draw enough viewers for network airing and has moved to TLC.
