Cooties 101
I had the pleasure just now of explaining what cooties are to my pal Mikey, who hails from the merry olde land of England. I didn’t realize it was mostly an American thing and decided to wiki it to help explain myself. Please, when you have a moment, check this out:

I was peeing my pants at my desk (yes I’m still at work, vom). If you’d...
Oh, hello hump day. Here’s a little...
Going to a new doctor today
That first visit always gives me major heebie jeebies. Is there anything more awkward than sitting on a cold desk, naked but for a thin sheet of paper, in front of someone you haven’t even met yet? I triple dawg dare you to find something more awkward.

megwhyte:
According to my dental hygenist, Jennie, wine and coffee stain your teeth after 20 minutes. So either drink out of a straw or get up every 20 minutes to rinse.
This is true, however drinking Diet Coke is apparently way worse because it layers on loads of other chemicals and acids which essentially cause irreversible damage because they erode your enamel. Which is why my dentist...
Confessions of a dorkus
So one of the things I like most about having this here tumblr is the ability to follow all sorts of fun and crazy peeps in the tumbleverse (their word for it, not mine). However, these same peeps are making me feel really unoriginal and uncool because they are so awesome/funny/other good thing, or at least their posts are. I’m wondering now which is more important - my ego or my...
Ughughugh I just embarrassingly mispronounced a...
And granted apparently it’s an oft-mispronounced name but that doesn’t keep me from feeling like an unsophisticated a-hole right now. MORTIFICATION!!!!
Eff you, Gilt Groupe.
They are making it nearly impossible for me to stick to my Lenten resolution. For those of you who don’t know, Gilt Groupe is a site that only has limited-time sample sales, meaning the prices are waaaay marked down to the point of me actually being able to afford some stuff. In the past 24 hours they’ve had Marc by Marc Jacobs, Catherine Malandrino and Kooba. Shoot me por favor! ...
The death of the legal profession; or, why you...
megwhyte:
doublethink:
We’re in the middle of a bloodbath of epic proportions in the legal market. Firms are laying off hundreds every week, and I predict another round of hundreds more in six months. The worst part of this, as Marc Penn (who is a ponce, usually) points out today:
What is a laid-off lawyer to do? They principally had their savings in the stock and housing markets, which have...

On Facebook statuses
Marm:
did Stacy* friend you on facebook? She updates her staus way way way more than Ali* does
Me:
yes she did and i've noticed that
Me:
and the statuses are stupid
Marm:
oh my god! i don't care about loud people in the library
Me:
hahahahahaha
Me:
yea i don't care that you changed your mind from five minutes ago and are going to get coffee instead of start your paper
Me:
if you're going to update your status that often, you can at least make it interesting
Me:
i mean, you want people to read it - that's why you're doing it, so why bore everyone to tears
Marm:
i know, plus, maybe that is why she isn't getting her work done
Me:
hahahaha!!!
Me:
so true

Hitting the spot
That sounds sexual and not how I intended. But it refers to all the amazing conversations I’ve had with some of my friends today. Despite my ugly hangover, I am feeling really on the ball in these convos and as if my friends are really understanding me (and I, them). Lately I’ve felt very shifty and out of sorts for many reasons and kind of sorry for myself like “nobody...
