I stumbled across these swanky bar stools in modernbangalow’s eBay shop. They break down into shippable size, and the starting bid is only $199. You should snag them so I don’t have to…we’re trying to save for a baby here, people. We have a bar in our house (in a little area just south of the front door that we… Read more →

The case for Law School.
Spending a day on the NYU campus brought back plenty of memories of the good ‘ol days, when my NYU Card was the only currency I needed to worry about, I had a view of the World Trade Center from my twelth floor window on Washington Square Park, and making movies was a given, not a goal. While NYU did… Read more →
They don’t know we know they know.
How I Met Your Mother is hands down my favorite [half hour] show. (Lost is just so damn good this season.) But before I cathartically laughed my way through wedding planning along with Lily and Marshall, and secretly loathed Barney for appropriating my inappropriate over-use of the word “Awesome” I was a loyal FRIENDS fanatic. (I’m not ashamed to say… Read more →
There’s an Alien in my stomach.
It’s a weird feeling, this pregnancy thing. My digestive system is under siege…starting from about week five when I started praying to the porcelain god multiple times a day, and although I’m grateful to report that that initial unpleasant side-effect of pregnancy has subsided, it’s given way to much less discussable symptoms that I’d rather not share here. The infamous… Read more →
As the world turns…so does your house.
Emma sent this house to me a few weeks ago, and it may be one of my favorite prefab creations yet. I’d actually seen the original rotating house on HGTV, but had somehow missed the fact that Solaleya has made this incredible concept available in a PreFab. These unique homes are very reasonably priced (for home builds only) but lord… Read more →
The Valley…You’ve Changed.
And it is like, totally annoying. I HATE having to dial “1” before every 818 number. Curse you 747! It’s like no one is local anymore! LA’s outgrowing itself and I want out! That is all. Read more →
Oh, Fuck it.
I’m pregnant, and I love this diaper bag. (It’s Stella McCartney for LeSportSac, and it’s at least a season old, so now I can’t find it anywhere.) I haven’t been able to come up with a good way to break our big news…and now I’ve been dragging it out for over a week, so there it is. 16 weeks. Due… Read more →
Reason Enough to Fly Virgin America for the rest of my life.
And not just because you feel like you’re on the soul plane. Sure, the air went out at a certain point in the flight, and they charge you 10$ for a snack, but the ticket prices can’t be beat, and by george, they have real TV on the back of every seat. Yeah, I know Jet Blue does this too,… Read more →
And then the Groom did a kegstand.
(No, I wasn’t quick enough to get a picture. But it happened. And it was totally awesome.) Amy and Magnus are married. Four days is a whirlwind trip to New York but completely worth every second of airplane inflicted mucus bombs and cankles to get to see my beloved former roomie (and one of the best people I know) marry… Read more →
Amy and Goose – the setup.
This trip to NY is proving wonderful for many reasons. The ladies of 224 were reunited under one roof. Dashiell can now point in response to the question “Where’s Morgan” without having to think about it too hard. And Amy and Magnus (or “Goose” as Scott likes to call him) are getting married tomorrow. Today, after a lovely diner breakfast… Read more →
