After a discussion with Paul about the possibility of makeouts happening at his Halloween Party I've decided to go.
I'm not dressing up though. Unless slutty or bitter counts as a costume.
I'm super excited to see all of my long lost Buffalo friends and eat chicken wings and drink Labatts and breathe fresh upstate air.

Tiny- answersYes- Le Cake went into le garbage can.
CT=Connecticut- it's where all the rich investment bankers live. Greenwich to be more precise.
The Hello Kitty Flagship store is actually in Times Square. I try to avoid going there because I tend to get more excited than I should being that I'm 31.
And the co-worker dude. Eh. He's divorced with 3 kids. Too much baggage.

Thanks. :) Curiosity might have killed the cat but it sure makes me wiser!
Oh yes, you MUST do all you can to stay away from Baggage. And I think life is too short to waste on people who don't get excited about stuff! I follow this principle in earnest and ditch everyone who brings me down or is too old at heart. Selfish and nasty thing to do, but I don't want to be on my deathbed tomorrow and regret being a stuffy old unenthusiastic passionless person.
Man, you should totally have eaten that gorgeous cake all by yourself!

Totally bustedLast night I spent some quality time with my lady friends talking books and politics. It was pretty fun. However, while discussing books and politics I was drinking Old Fashion's (burbon and cherrys- you really can't go wrong) until 12am.
Now I'm slightly hung over. The cure for a hangover is always bacon, egg and cheese on a roll.
I was just on the phone ordering one and a coworker walked by and heard me. He just shook his head and laughed. Apparently I won't be keeping my hangover a secret today.

I hear crack really takes the edge of a hangover too.

In my youth, we always went with a snickers bar and a glass of grape juice. I think it was the sugar rush that helped.

Is it really this bad?Another friend lost their job.
I've never been this scared of the economy. Last night all I could dream about was A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. Is it time to nail down a tin can in my closet and save nickles for emergencies? I feel like it might be.

CakeRemember the German Chocolate Cake? If not refer to:
It was birthday cake day in the office and a coworker and I were discussing cake and she was like "oh how's [redacted]?" She had met him at a work event and we hadn't chatted since and she's a playwright and was wondering about his projects and such. I told her it didn't work out and funny she should ask while we were eating cake. I then told her the cake story (I made an awesome cake that was never eaten). Turns out she's writting a play and wants to use it in her play!! I knew somehow, somewhere that effing cake would not go to waste if it killed me. It is now famous (or at least in a play that people may or may not see for years to come).
Ok update: I sent her the picture of the cake. She wants to use it as the cover for her playbill! My cake is famous!
Just for you Paul. By popular request here is the infamous never eaten "German Chocolate 3 hour to prepare and no I'm not bitter about it cake".
PS Jason you and I are having drink fest next time I go home.

Cake that doesn't get eaten? Huh? A girl makes me anything and it's getting inhaled pronto. Unless it has mayo. I've done the buy the girl a cake and end up eating it by yourself thing though.

Pastry fame!
Pastry fame!
I had no idea there where going to be make outs (wonder if I'll see them, take part or miss them), With my luck I'm guessing the last. Well since tiny is counting lets make this #59 for costumes in that I still can't figure out if mine will work or not (the cold is kinda a factor I forgot about).
Costume suggestions:
Bitter
Slutty
Drunk
or a combo of all three.
They are all super easy and I can show you step by step (NKOTB) how to be them..
Awesome. :) I finally get to meet you.
And oh man, #57th costume mention. I am going to die of costume stress.
I did bitter last year. Too old for a convincing slutty.
slutty and bitter is the best costume!
