This is more depressing than a Tori Amos cover band

I went to pick up my car yesterday and was having a little chat with the mechanic and quickly realized that he was hitting one me. He was talking about his house on the Cape (Cape Cod) and his boat and mentioned he was single multiple times. I got to see a photo of the house and boat. He asked what my plans were for the weekend. Just hanging out with my boyfriend who I live with.

I told my mom this story and she said "it seems like a lot of mechanics are lonely". She quickly followed that up with "I don't mean that you're not a pretty girl, you are!" Thanks mom.

Someone may have had too many peach bellinis last night. I'm not going to name names but I'll let you guess who it was.


Oh man it was good. The peach and the champagne combo is not so good for the head in the morning. Anthem in Fanieul Hall makes some great drinks.

I'm recovering on the couch today watching Season 2 of Orange is the New Black. I love this show.


I also love Tori Amos and this quote.

I'm loving the new character Vee. It's interesting seeing how she manipulates people. I'm only on episode 4 so don't spoil anything for me.

Ok time to try to take a nap when there's construction happening outside my house. Fun!

It's like you're crying from my mouth

Dinner and drinks at Eastern Standard last night. Is it weird that my favorite part of Eastern Standard is the hall the leads to the bathrooms? It's just so fancy and pretty. I think the hall connects to the Hotel Commonwealth.



My friend Melissa and I have had this weird thing we say to eachother - "It's like you're crying from my mouth". It makes no sense and I can't even remember where it came from. It might have been us poking fun at Twilight and we were probably intoxicated. As I was walking to the bathroom at Eastern Standard I came across this art work and started cracking up. Can I get my own copy please?
I tried a "classic" Miller Lite at Cornwalls. I then grew a very classic 80s stache.

I've been having dreams about moving and houses lately. I'm not sure what that means. Last night I had a dream that I moved into a giant house but it was haunted. I had a young child and I was nervous because the railings were just falling off in the house. Someone also kept slitting the screens and I was worried about the cats escaping. I went into the basement to do laundry (really? I'm dreaming of doing laundry?) and saw a strange man walk by out of the corner of my eye. I freaked out and told Derek I wanted to leave. He didn't want to. I told him I didn't want to leave either because we had laundry in our actual own home but I also couldn't stay in a home where a strange man was walking around the basement.

I guess the lesson here is I am really desperate for laundry "in unit".

Double standards on the Real World Ex-Plosion


I finally got a haircut. I was starting to resemble the girl from the Ring for a little bit there but my hair is looking much better now. I went to my usual hairdresser, Liz at Back Bay Hair Designs. Hopefully I won't wait so long between cuts next time, it was kind of embarrassing.

This season of the Real World is really pissing me off. More specifically the men on this season are pissing me off. Every single guy in the house has slut shamed one of the girls at some point. The double standards are so glaring it's sickening. It's totally ok for one of the guys to get a phone number or bring a girl home but when the tables are turned it's suddenly not ok.

The worst example was when Cory's ex Lauren found out she was pregnant from a guy she slept with before she came on the show. Cory flipped out on her but Cory had been sleeping with Jenny before Lauren came! Jenny even said "that could have been me, I could have gotten pregnant" to Lauren. So it was ok for Cory to sleep with someone else but not for Lauren? And on top of that back when they had first started dating Cory thought he got some other girl pregnant and Lauren stayed with him! That crap just gets under my skin. Thank God I have a blog where I can rant about people on reality tv.
