Oh I see!
Apparently, my super fun hospital trip from last summer is totally covered except my ultrasound.  That doesn’t count as a part of my ER visit because my doctor didn’t give an official approval for it. So when they said, ‘We think your kidneys are failing.  We need an ultrasound to check that out.” I should have been like, “Sounds great dude.  But is this a referral?...

kelsium: The bitch in me says that Zooey Deschanel has convinced the world that a flurry of activities that are acceptably feminine but unusual enough to potentially make them a talking point is a valid substitute for a personality. My frustration is that I like baking and crafting and sweater guards too but now that’s a THING.  I like *those things* not how CUTE it is that I like them....

My sister got called for jury duty
She forgot and apparently they called her and she had to rush down to the court room in her sweatsuit before showering.  During their interviews the attourney asked her if she had bumper stickers and if so what they said.  In attempt to get off the hook, she said she had one that says, “Marijuana is awesome.” It was a drug case.  Apparently he got very serious and she had to admit...

ramou replied to your post: You guys! Fat girl jeans at Dots are amazing.  I… I just saw the leopard skinny jeans. I want them even though I would likely never wear them outside. I didn’t even try them on because I’m too broke to buy something that awesome/frivolous… but I get paid on Friday and there are no guarantees I won’t buy those or the orange ones… none...

You guys! Fat girl jeans at Dots are amazing.  I got the “fragile” brand.  I love them. They don’t cut at the waist or sag in the butt and they cuff so perfectly.  I LOVE THEM LOVE THEM LOVE THEM! And they were $22!

It's the healthy habits, not what you weigh! →
lucillebruise: marilynwann: Ooh, science! Here’s what researchers found. When looking at a very large number of people, those who ate 5 servings of fruits and veg a day, got regular exercise, drank alcohol moderately, and didn’t smoke tobacco were more than three times less likely to die, regardless of what they weighed or whether they lost weight. The fattest people in the study benefitted...

I didn’t get it.  As far as I know, they cast 1 person: a dude.  He’s awesome and I was only a little bit sad.  Just a little bit.  They said “WE LOVE YOU! YOU SPEAK TO US! WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH! NOW MESS WITH US!”  I have to work on being a little more out there and unexpected.  One auditor’s advice, “Don’t shock us.  Shock yourself.” Which is...

Wild New Year's Eve
We spent it on the couch watching Dirty Dancing and a documentary on Bill Cunningham.  We had a champagne toast and cheesey treats but it was one of the best NYE ever.

I am freaking out about this audition
If I don’t get it: obvious bummer. I don’t know when I’ll have the attention of the comedy gods again. But if I don’t get it, I’ll be fine. Our little production company is in an amazing growth spurt and I love all my collaborators. I love the home I’m building with Giant Husband.  I don’t even hate my day job. I’m more afraid of GETTING this gig....
