iPhone

I have one and I have no idea how to use it. Right now it's just a big electronic blob. I can't wait to figure it out!

Champagne Sabering

File under: Why I love New York. You learn the most random things when you least expect it.

Last night I was out to dinner celebrating a friend's 30th birthday. Our very French Chef insisted on serving us the bottle of Champagne we had to toast her 30th. He took the bottle and told us he was going to "chop it's head off". He then returned us the bottle with the top portion of the bottle cut off. I was amazed. After googling this I've discovered this is known as "Champagne Sabering". I'm kind of obsessed with learning how to do this now.

Dear Santa

I hate to ask for things for Christmas. I feel like I don't actually need anything. But then I start to think about things I'd like and I can come up with one hundred things. I just came across this (see below) and my heart said "Please Santa!".

I'm going to consider going because KRS1 is one of my old school hip hop heros. Maybe this should be my present to myself.

Just when I though..

it was not possible to love Obama more (totally irrational I know, and I don't think he is the next coming of Jesus and I realize he can not solve America's problems but..) this picture appears:

Facebook

Ok so I don't think you can really see this picture but Facebook has some sort of feature where your friends answer questions about you.

Apparently someone thinks:

I'm hot
I've lied to get out of a date (100% correct)
I could shoot someone if I had to (what kind of person do you think I am?)
I'm a good driver (if only they knew)
I'm a good friend (clearly)

Farmers are hot

Where can I meet a farmer that looks like this AND can harness his milking abilities for good?

I,m so excited and I just can't hide it.

I haven't posted in forever. I've had an amazing summer of travel with friends (group vacas- i highly recommend) and family (Alaska!! amazing) but, the one thing that gets me to post is:

I've been reading this blog for a while now and new girl crush would be an understatement. She has the best. style. ever. AND she does tons of DIY fashion projects. Today's outfit is out of control hot. Basically this is who I want to be when I grow up.

What does this say about me?

I was at (e:businesscheese)'s apartment the other day and this went down:

Makeup artist: explaining his expert application of fake lashes.

Me: leaning in paying really close attention, not realizing my mouth was agape.

(e:Businesscheese): OMG look at Jessica, it's like she is listening to Obama speak!!

Me: Right, except I don't think I even paid that much attention to Obama.

Moral of the story: My actions have spoken louder than words and I love make-up more than Obama.

BFF Conversation #432

Paul: Did you see my finger?

Me: Yes Paul, I did. It's gross.

Paul: I smashed it so hard with a sledgehammer. And then it part of it flapped open and.. (this is where I tune him out because it was disgusting.)

Me: Why did you need a sledgehammer to plant trees?

Paul: After you plant them you hit them a few times. A hurt tree grows faster trying to heal.

Me: Oh. Really? I guess yeah I can see that.

Paul: (laughing) Ok I can't really let you believe that because you're going to go around hitting trees now.

Me: Most gullible moment of 2009.
