A scene from the most fun nites of my life thus far:
Steph is a sexy magician, I’m Shel Silverstein’s Giving Tree (except at this point
I had lost most of my leaves), and Cassidy is a cowboy with handcuff earrings.
We are waiting in line to use the 2009: A Space Odyssey party’s bathroom.
We will ride a roller coaster soon thereafter.

The house party roller coaster I rode on Halloween.

Hey, remember that time the boy you like called you back at last and you had to leave your freshly-made sandwich and soup for me to eat? Me, too.

when poor, it’s important to find comfort in the little things, like a good woman and It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

1 Thing I Did Before Leaving for Work:

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 21:25:00 -0500

-Changed out of the mom jeans
(ragged crotches be damned, I just won’t move a whole lot).

4 Things I Just Did:

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 14:29:24 -0500

-Cleaned out my freezer (id est, finished the butter pecan ice cream tub).
-Put pants on (mom jeans, to be exact- they’re the only pants I have
without a deteriorating crotch right now).
-Combed the dandruff out of my hair (hey-oh cold weather!).
-Cut my bangs too short (I’m awesome).

Off to work! See YA!

“It’s Only Time” as covered by Nikki G (That would be me, yours truly)

Ladies and Gentlemen, my very talented friend Nicole covering The Magnetic Fields. Use caution in listening to this, because uh, you’ll probably fall in love with her if you do.

Pretty!

“I’m Into Something Good” by The Langley Schools Music Project

originally by The Beach Boys

(posted by saramcpherson)

“(Film director) Spike (Jonze) came to me with the idea of the music having a similar mood to The Langley Schools Music Project, Innocence and Despair, which is a children’s choir singing melancholy pop songs by David Bowie and the Beach Boys. I don’t know how close we got to that idea in the end, but the intention was to write simple melodies that were emotionally complex—something that both kids and adults would appreciate.” - Karen O of The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, interviewed about composing songs for the film Where The Wild Things Are

You Are Among An Author Who Wants to Make Sure She Doesn't Leave Anything Out

You Are Among An Author Who Wants to Make Sure She Doesn't Leave Anything Out:

ljm:

I want to make sure I cover all necessary topics in the You Are Among Friends book (which will be published by the holidays, by the way! Start your letters to Santa now!). In writing the zine, I wrote directly to my memory of my twelve-year-old self. In the book, not only do I want to address a wider audience, but I also want to address a range of concerns wider than the ones I personally dealt with most.

Girls, ladies, women: What were you most concerned about as an adolescent? What made you deliriously happy? What did you worry about? What made you cry so much that your dad scolded you at the dinner table to “quit crying all the time?” (Oh. Just me, then?)

I’m asking that ideas be sent to me via my website—click the “Say Hi” link at the top.

I’d like this to reach as wide an audience of ladies as possible, so if you have it in your heart to give a girl a good old-fashioned reblog this morning, please do!

Have you heard You Are Among Friends yet? You ought to remedy that.
