Manhattan Bridge

Sunday I had the worst brunch I've ever eaten. And it was expensive. I highly do not recommend Bubby's in Dumbo. What I do suggest though is going to Dumbo in Brooklyn. The view of the city was one of the best I've seen and the architecture was quite interesting. The picture I like best is of the manhattan bridge. I'm a terrible photographer, but even I couldn't mess this one up.

My odd obsession

I have this fetish for nice paper and ribbon. Kate's (a high end paper and ribbon store in NYC) was having a sale. Kate's+ 50% off sale=orgasmic happiness for Jessica.

Below are the spoils of my shopping trip. And yes when I got home I did caress the ribbon in a creepy way.

Christmas 2006

I've had pictures on my camera forever waiting to be uploaded. Now my blog will be more interesting than my usual "oh boys" & "i have a zit".

Feast your eyes below, Think of it as a pictorial journey through my travels to Buffalo:

Little Paul was so kind and got up early to get me at the airport so I bought him breakfast.

Then we went driving around and saw Asses of Fire. I'm quite sure I don't ever want to be familar with any ass of fire or have my ass feel like its on fire.

The we saw the infamous "Lady in White". I miss her. I made Paul pull up right next to her so I could take a picture to remember her when I'm homesick in NYC.

I gave Paul a present (he didn't give me one in return at that point). He loves this lotion. He's been stealing it from me since 1994.

I made Paul a ladybug. I think it's cute.

We then had a photoshoot at Spot. It was fun.

Aww friends

At the Outback there are NO RULES yeah! (pump your fist in the air as you say it, its more fun)

With out consulting with each other Sarah and I both picked the SAME color scheme for Christmas (pink and blue). God are we sisters or what?

Ok so secret santa

So for the second year in a row I've participated in a secret santa extravaganza and both times I gave a gift and didn't get anything in return. Next year I am boycotting all secret santa type programs. Am I the only one this happens to?

Other than my bitterness over secret santas my life is pretty boring. My apartment is actually clean, which is always a sure sign that I have entirely too much time on my hands.

Maybe when I regain my motivation I'll post pictures of my recent adventures in Buffalo and NYC. But don't hold your breath.

Squirrels Gone Wild

This was on the front page of nyt.com

It scared me. This is what they will look like when they finally decide to take revenge and kill Paul Matt and Terry in their sleep.

Free Music

Because like Jack black in School of Rock I'm all about sticking it to the man:

Check out emusic.com when you get the chance! Sign up for the 14-day trial period, download 25 songs, then cancel! How do they make money?!?!?!

-Note I stole this idea from a co-worker with whom I used to make out. It's not my original find.

Why is my karma so fucking good?

Ok so five minutes ago I was on the phone with my friend. I was telling her about how my mom is coming here for my birthday, my 30th birthday. Then she was asking what we were going to do blah blah. So I was like "well i was going to try to get a room in the city, but they are all $700 plus right now, so we'll do it up jersey style". then we continued to blab and blab. I hang up and one of my co-workers walks over and said she couldn't help over hearing my conversation and wanted to know if I want a room in the city. She said she has more points than she can ever use. I was like "uh, sure?" She then promptly gets on the phone, books me a room at the W Union Square and upgrades me to the mac daddy room. What?!? Seriously that is super nice.

Lately good karma has been flowing non stop towards me. On Thanksgiving day (after being dumped) I dropped a $20 on my way to the store. Once I got to the check outline I realized I didn't have it. Ran out of the store and FOUND IT on the street.

I dropped a $5 on the PATH- someone picked it up and handed it to me.

I dropped my key card for work, someone picked it up and handed it to me.

Maybe 30 is going to be the best year yet!

Getting Dumped is the new Thanksgiving

So on thanksgiving i was "dumped" by the midwestern boy via voicemail. and by boy i mean he was 35 and does his business via voicemail. for about 30 minutes i wanted to cry, then i realized my ego was more bruised than my feelings. thank goodness thanksgiving rocked the house, soon i forgot all about stupid boys who are lame.

below is a pictorial journey of my day:

Aww Sisters

Aww Friends

Aww Emily and Eamon

The Chefs

The Spread

Everyone digging in

I kinda want Thanksgiving all over again now

Me and Carolyn

I make a mean beertini

I've been meaning to post this for a while, but Im lazy. This is my infamous beertini from the high point of my summer. Barfing in a garbage can near NYCs oldest cemetery and being escorted to the PATH train by the po po. I can only hope my 30th birthday bring such fun.

Also Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I'm quite stoked about my current thanksgiving plans. They include a shameful amount of wine, 2 turkeys, 2 Ho's, lots of scientists and mismatched placemats. How can you go wrong with that combo? I don't think you can.
