… if this is true, it has completely restored my faith in humanity. This is Hideaki Akaiwa. When the Tsunami hit his home town of Ishinomaki, Hideaki was at work. Realising his wife was trapped in their home, he ignored the advice of professionals, who told him to wait for the army to arrive to provide […]

Awkward/Awesome Thursday
Awkward Thinking I left the space heater on at work, so going back there an hour after I’ve left only to have no way to get in the building b/c I don’t have a key, but seeing that there are still people there, so staking out the parking lot until they come out to ask […]
Sunshiiine
A lame blog post title, I know. BUT… As I’m sitting at work, looking out the window at the sunshine & 50 degree weather (ok, so I’m not really looking at the temperature, but you know what I mean) I can’t help but fantasize about spring & summer weather. I also can’t help thinking about […]
The Sun Is Shining…
Ok so across most of the country the sun isn’t shining today. Which is unfortunate, because I am so ready for spring! So – to try to persuade spring to come out of hibernation today’s blog will be about my all-time favorie accessory – sunglasses! In addition to looking cute, wearing sunglasses is good for […]
Knockoff Crusade
Fake bags. I hate them. I’ve got a very firm stance on the issue, and I’m not willing to back down. I think the hatred of counterfeit designer (aka knockoff) bags started in middle school. My parents had gotten me my first Coach bag for Christmas during 7th or 8th grade. Just a cute little bag, black […]
The Attack of the Kitten Heel
So. Recently, my “work” shoes broke. I have lots and lots of shoes, but there is one particular pair of pumps that I reserve strictly for work, interviews, etc. I don’t wear only those shoes to work, but they’re the go-to shoe for when I need to make a good impression. The heel is the […]
Soooo sorry!
Hi guys! I am so so so sorry about the ridiculously long 2 week hiatus. I didn’t intend for it to happen, but I got wrapped up in some other stuff & just couldn’t drag myself away. The other stuff also lead to a huge mental block, because I was so focused on the other […]
Awkward & Awesome Thursday!
Awkward Missing last Thursday’s Awkward/Awesome post & having people send me e-mails about it, sorry guys! Hearing someone’s opinion/thoughts/whatever on something that they are really excited about, and completely disagreeing with them – but not being in any position to say so. Having my first legitimate “Oh My Gosh I’m Old” moment, and realizing that […]
Radio Silence
You guys, nothing interesting has happened to me in a while, & I haven’t been overly inspired to write anything since the Oscars. I’m trying to stay away from the Charlie Sheen drama because, while it’s a gold mine of comedy, he’s obviously a very sick man, & is doing far more than just making […]
