i got my bridesmaid's dress today!!

did you know that in canada we have a clothing stores in the middle of our grocery stores, and the designer is the same one as club monaco, so you can get a beautiful, well-made bridesmaids dress for under thirty dollars that looks like it cost way over 200$?

now you know. (frghfereurhw i am so excited!!) (and yes, that is weirder than the fact that we drink milk out of bags).

i was going to just wear jorts but i did something to ruin them… take a guess, josh/gen!?

even though

i am not a yankees fan, but i figure it isn’t fair of me to chirp them all the time without knowing more of their history, like i do about most other teams. ‘october men’ by roger kahn is turning out to be an interesting (if biased) read, and i really like this introductory quote about what it’s like to write about baseball for a living:

“…I became a baseball writer, that luckiest of men, paid to see every day others have to pay to see occasionally. Living in the finest hotels, packed with steak and wine, spending the springs in Florida, Arizona, California, Havana, allowed, nay required, to talk continually with the nation’s idols, is he not the favourite of the gods?”

- Heywood Hale Broun, A Studied Madness

CHAZZ is obviously going through a rebellious phase (running away, not letting me hold him like a baby anymore, begging us to dye his fur black- ha ha). he’s back. i can breattthhhee.

i don’t drink too much or even smoke pot very much anymore (CH-CH-CHANGES) so when i woke up with a hangover the other day (after two pints, 2 mixed drinks) i was very surprised, and i felt like this. exactly like this. all fucking day. like sir hissss after he got trapped in an oak barrel of hooch, coupled with him getting smashed on the head with a mirror. seven years bad luck. i didn’t say “never again” but i did say “more water next time. water before bed. moron.”

bottle service  ([bot-l] [sur-vis]) : (fig 1., above: bottle service at Augusta House, Toronto): how i wasted a lot of money in university trying to keep up with my rich friends and entice cast members of degrassi (ellie; london taphouse) we saw at bars to come sit with us (it works). a great way to grab those awesome old-school redbulls served in bottles that look like they’re from an 1800’s apothecary and should contain ether (see above). is pretty douchey, unless it’s a bachelorette party (see above). is a feature of many upscale nightclubs where patrons may purchase entire bottles of liquor for their personal consumption, and includes a reserved table with mixers and the services of a VIP host who will often make drinks using the patrons’ liquor bottle and mixers. (source) a concept which, upon explaining it to my boyfriend last night, he declared to be: “reserved for David Bowie or something.” not so, dearest, it is also for the collegiate youth with expendable parental income and their thick-skulled friends with no such income but a plethora of credit cards. LAME.

(via mindgrapes) i haven’t laughed consistently through an episode of the office in awhile, though my love for it has never waned. but this was pure gold, from start to finish!
