I need this:

Excuse me, where can I find this mirror?  Thanks.

Another Look-Alike?

I saw this series of photos today posted on someone's blog as I was scrolling through - I paused, startled, because it looked like Craig! (especially the photo on the top right)

Then, I realized, it was Ryan Gossling.... and got turned on.



(Bad angle, but with that scruffy face, he can totally pull off the "Ryan" lookalike)

Give a little...

Unless you have literally been sleeping for a whole week, you know that Japan is suffering after a major earthquake, destructive tsunami, and now a near nuclear meltdown.  The citizens of Japan need as much help as they can get and I urge you to do what you can to help.  If you need some coercing, there are a couple of places that are a win-win donation.

LivingSocial offers a $5.00 donation that is matched 100%

Gap, Inc. (which includes Banana Republic, Old Navy, and Piperlime) is also offering matching donations to anyone who gives through their GlobalGiving campaign. 

But the best one I've seen is Forever21.  They're donationg 100% of the proceeds for online purchases (TODAY ONLY) to the disaster relief.  So go get yourself some new clothes for a good cause!  I'd been scoping out a cute jumpsuit at H&M for a few weeks now, (going to visit when I'm nearby, you know, things that sane people do) and I decided my money would be better suited to go to this cause. 

Please donate if you can, it's money not gone to waste.

Stuff my boyfriend says..

"Geez, your boobs look huge! New bra? Or is it because your waist is getting smaller?"

Takin' it as a compliment!

Weekend in Review: 2/25 - 2/27

Michael and Kim got married!

Craig and I left the city before the sun came up on a Friday morning and drove down to Lynchburg, VA to witness my dear, dear friends Michael and Kim tie the knot!

There's not much I can say to fully capture the magic of the weekend, the sun shone brightly and seemed to follow the bride wherever she went.  

Being a bridesmaid can usually end up being more work than anything else, but Kim was cool, calm, and collected and required no work from her bridesmaids.  I was truly honored to be one of the women standing with her on her and Michael's very special day.  

I even think that Craig had a great time even though people below the Mason-Dixon Line drive "way too slow"!

Here's to love!

Weekend in Review: 2/19 - 2/20

Two weekends ago (I know, I know.. I've been terrible about updating this thing!) Craig's young cousin came into the city for some fun!  Themed restaurants, Times Square ferris wheels, and painting pottery at Make! on the Upper West Side.

Hey, Craig and I aren't that bad in the painting department, huh?  Sometimes it's just more fun to be a kid!

After my next 10 pounds, these will become mine.  7 more to go!
