oh saturday night.







Since my Saturday night (following work) consisted of a trip to Duane Reade to purchase ant traps as well as the latest edition of Life and Style...

I'm thinking match.com doesn't seem like such a bad idea.

Really.

Because I don't want to end up as a cat lady. And the pervading feeling among my family members...

is that I just might.





PS: thanks for all the tips about the ants...I'll keep you posted on the success of the drugstore-brand traps!

A girl can't kiss and tell.


But for all you kind and curious ones who inquired about "the blind date" I can say this...he was totally lovely. We enjoyed Italian food right up the street with a few of his friends from the city (he was visiting from out of town). And then journeyed to K-town to get our karaoke on. As kind as he was, I felt the true success of the night was the simple fact that I went (my mom had doubts right up until he picked me up). I went to dinner, chose to continue on to karaoke, and even sang two songs. Yael Naim. And Celine. Yes, that Celine. Celine Dion. And I was kinda good. Okay, okay...I was fine. The point is I had fun and got out there and did something I've never done before, but am more than willing to try again. The worst thing you can come away with is a free meal and a blog-worth story.

Thought I must say one of the highlights of the evening came when his friend told me I was the spitting image of Jennifer Connelly. I think it was the new part down the middle he was responding to.



One day Jennifer, one day.

The times they are a-changin'


My first semester of college I didn't own a hair brush. I was an ardent subscriber to the school of thought that professed beauty lie somewhere between well-coiffed and au-natural (really, really au-natural). 

But last night, after searching my apartment (gorilla style) for the one hairbrush I own--because the thing that concerned me most about the impending blind date was how my hair looked--I knew that I had come away from school with so much more than a BFA. And that I was that much closer to becoming my mother.
