We're among friends, right?
Can anyone recommend a pair of drawstring waist pants that look sort of acceptable? You know, for days when you need to leave the house, but only sort of?

Endorsement
Guys, this new Kitty Pryde, “Okay Cupid” video is miraculous. And if you look on YouTube she has other hilarious/wonderful songs about stuff like Justin Bieber. I’m not saying you’re going to thank me. At least not out loud.
Have you ever gotten confused by similar profile photos and commented on someone’s Facebook post that isn’t really a friend, but just someone you sort of knew in high school? That just happened to me. But she responded to the post and clearly has me confused with someone else as well. Red faces all around.
A poll: I cut my finger while framing photos and accidentally bled on my white bedspread (just two little drops!). Will guests be horrified if I don’t bleach and launder before Friday? I just don’t know if I’ll have the time.

Tristan und Isolde is scarcely the story,
women at least should know the difference
between love and death. No poison cup,
no penance. Merely a notion that the tape-recorder
should have caught some...
Cookies have arrived!!!!
Clear your schedules.
The Subtle Art of Modern Communication
When responding to emails from acquaintances who you know don’t really like you, I find it’s best to use exactly the same number of exclamation points in the reply as they used in the initial communication. This maintains the power balance, ensuring that you are giving no more enthusiasm than you received.

Whatever your thoughts on religious freedoms, public healthcare, abortion and related topics, I am asking you to put them aside for just a moment. During the current maelstrom over contraception— It’s for sluts!, the cause of increased numbers of out-of-wedlock babies, an inspiration to young…
Not the perfect articulation of my experiences, but worth reading.
I wish that I were a more kind, mature person. I hate that I resort to being mean when I am frustrated. It is inexcusable and I am sorry.
Park Slope Problems
Stayed up late looking at textiles on eBay and now I’m afraid I won’t wake up in time to register for a Co-op orientation.
“In Texas, a group of Girl Scouts robbed of their cookie-sale proceeds traded blows with the male thieves as they tried to get away. “I hope your face hurts from when Iravia punched you, jerk,” said scout Rachel Johnson in an interview. Whitney Purvis, who was profiled on the reality-television series 16 and Pregnant, was arrested in Georgia for attempting to steal a pregnancy test from...
There is an implausible amount of heterosexual sex in Smash, right?

Dear Pinterest,
While I understand that you want me to follow more pinners, the algorithm that put the “Wedding” board belonging to my ex-boyfriend’s fiancé into my following dashboard should probably be tweaked.

True Story
A friend (?) from high school got engaged, updated her Facebook relationship status, and started a Pinterest board called “Wedding” (six posts already!) all in one night. Sounds like a perfect romance?
