New Ban on NYC Public Transportation
2008-08-07 00:31:00 I think standing on NYC public transportation should be banned and here's why ... Take a look at my view as I rode to work today on the bus. I was fortunate enough to get a seat, although it was one of those weird ones that faces the ailse so you...

BRING FAVRE BACK YOU STUPID CHEESEHEADS!
2008-08-06 03:59:00 Speaking of Friday fish fry and dicks, what the hell is going on up in Wisconsin with the asshole Green Bay Packers' management? Welcome our boy back!! Is it because I live in NYC now that I'm one of the only GB fans who still wants Favre back? ... Read and post comments | Send to a friend More About: Stupid , Back
Is that a piece of fish or are you just happy to see me?
2008-08-05 18:49:00 Stopped by my favorite Irish pub Friday afternoon and ordered up their house special Fish 'n Chips. Um, never seen a fish shaped like this. Seriously, someone needs to tell me where I can swim with these penis shaped fish! It's about time I get o... Read and post comments | Send to a friend More About: Happy , Piece
There's a horse in the backyard
2008-08-01 16:27:00 From Memorial Day to Labor Day, our office implements "summer Fridays" where we get to leave at 2 p.m. It often involves people leaving the office and going straight to the bar. A couple of times, though, I've gone with a colleague of mine to "th... Read and post comments | Send to a friend More About: Backyard , Horse
FINALLY! A job I would enjoy!!
2008-07-24 03:48:00 You know my feelings about the bullshit corporate world. The posers spouting off meaningless jargon because they think it makes them sound smart. The pointless meetings during which nothing is ever accomplished. The endless discussions about subj... Read and post comments | Send to a friend More About: Enjoy , Finally
Perma-pucker
2008-07-22 00:29:00 Was on a New Jersey Transit train the other day and sat across from this guy, who of course totally annoyed me just for being there. He had a perma-pucker. Like his lips were smooshed like that for the entire ride. Who's face just naturally pucke... Read and post comments | Send to a friend
Union Square
2008-07-18 19:42:00 One thing, among the millions of others, that bothers me about NYC is this place called Union Square . The place itself doesn't bug me. It's actually a nice park with a farmer's market and a holiday bazaar at Christmas time. Nice neighborhood with... Read and post comments | Send to a friend More About: Union Square
Ted Thompson should be fired!
2008-07-15 16:02:00 I have no idea what's going down in the land of cheesheads, but for the first time in many years, I hate the Packers, specifically Ted Thompson ! LET FAVRE COME BACK!!!

Holding the Door Etiquette
2008-07-14 23:44:00 Something unbelievable happened to me today. A man actually held the door open for me! This almost never happens anymore, especially in this city where all people do is push each other out of the way to board public transportation. I guess while...

Feline Witch Project
2008-07-14 02:56:00 Kind of a funny photo I got this weekend. My cat, Gato, was hanging out on my bed as usual. Sometimes, though, she does this weird staring at the wall thing. Seriously, she'll stay like this for hours. And it looks kinda freaky. Remember that mov... Read and post comments | Send to a friend More About: Project , Feline , Witch
It's a Long Commute
2008-01-29 19:26:00 I had a great commute home last night! Now that I work in Dirty Jerz a few days a week my commute is longer. I still live in NYC. There's no way I'd move to Jerz. Anyway, I take a bus to a subway to a NJ transit train to a shuttle (the kind that ... Read and post comments | Send to a friend More About: Commute , Long
The Crabby Cat
2008-01-28 19:19:00 Awhile back I posted this photo of my cat, Lola. She was sitting in an empty comforter bag, and totally psyched about it - at least it was clear to me she was psyched. Her facial expression, however, never changes. She has a perma-furrowed brow n... Read and post comments | Send to a friend
What is Power?
2008-01-24 04:26:00 I think, for once, I might have a lesson to share in this post. Something worthwhile, perhaps. A break from all my complaining about work and NYC public transportation.

Secrets and Torture
2008-01-17 04:31:00 I just got home from work and running a few errands and stopping at my favorite Asian nail salon to get a manicure.

More NYC Sight-seeing: a cross-dresser, banana, skeleton and vagina
2008-01-08 17:42:00 I haven't posted photos of crazy NYC people in awhile so here you go. I'm so mad this one turned out fuzzy because it was good one!

It's Only Been FIVE Days!!!
2008-01-06 06:02:00 So, what day is today? It's the sixth day of January. I always like to see how long it takes until I break every single one of my New Year's resolutions.

A Marathon of Dumbness
2008-01-03 04:50:00 So, you know how on New Year's Day you pretty much lay on the couch and watch TV? You don't shower. You eat tons of hot and cheesy carbs. And you pretty much like to stay horizontal all day, except when you have to pee. Well, this New Year's Day ... Read and post comments | Send to a friend More About: Marathon

The Un-super
2007-12-20 19:45:00 There are few things that annoy me more about NYC (including even public transportation) than the tipping tradition during the holidays. I am by no means wealthy - at least not for this city. I live in a tiny aparment, for which the rent is $1825... Read and post comments | Send to a friend More About: Super

More eye-rolling phrases
2007-11-27 16:24:00 New job. Same old shit.

2007-11-25 21:36:00 Went to Dallas for another event last week. From LaGuardia to Dallas Fort Worth, it's about a three-hour non-stop flight, I think. Well, it might as well have been three days!
