I just logged in to my Pinterest account for the first time in ages. I have a board titled “People”. The only two people on there are Lisa Vanderpump and Anthony Bourdain. I think that explains my personality better than I ever could with words.
How nice do you think one has to be to get an entire town named after you? Contemplating putting it on my life goals list.*
*If I ever as soon as I make one, that is.
Receptionist: Why did you get Taco Bell when our chili* contest is today?
Me: …
Me: I was planning on having both.
*Confession: I have a weird phobia of eating chili someone else made if I haven’t personally seen their kitchen. I always think there could be a ground up person in it and no one would know.

I just learned the RHOBH reunion is a three-parter. Day=made.
My feelings about this can be summed up as such:
HAHAHA, yours is so much cooler than mine, I had to reblog!

One thing has become very clear while reading my dash the last couple of weeks: I’m going to have to add dining at Alinea to the bucket list, huh?
A friend and I are planning a mom/daughter trip to Chicago in a few months. I should probably make reservations now.

I really think it’s in my best interest to stay off Facebook until after the elections. But who am I kidding, without idiot “friends”, who would we mock?
It never fails. I always (accidentally) wear extra long jeans on rainy days. Which means that the bottom two inches of my pants remain soaked throughout the day. #shortgirlproblems
Wednesday confession:
OK, so remember on RHONY when Kelly Bitchsimon and Bethenny got into their “I’m up here, you’re down here” war? When what she really meant was I’m above this childish behavior and not I’m so much more important and famous than you? Well, I totally pulled a Bethenny once. See, I make a Big Deal out of my birthday. And years ago, The Ex said to me, during my...

Mob Wives Sunday night. The Bachelor and RHOBH Monday night. Dance Moms Tuesday night. Toddlers & Tiaras and a Beverly-free Top Chef tonight. The television gods are certainly smiling on me this week.
I’m convinced the only good thing about being able to access Facebook and email from my phone is to have something to do while sitting at red lights or in drive-thrus.
I went home at lunch and took a 30 minute nap…I’m a brand new person. I also had an epiphany: I think my “problem”, if you can call it that, is that I’m not scared enough of being alone to settle for good over great, or for caring about someone over being in love with someone. And if that’s my main problem at the moment, I’m OK with that.
Aaaaaand now...

How on earth did I just realize this blog existed??
Today.
+: Shared a moment with the gentleman in the car next to me when we glanced at each other and realized we were listening to the same radio station…and thus were giving a rousing duet/car dance to “Poker Face”.
+: Loose sweater. Cami. No bra. Comfort.
-: No sleep, in spite of taking melatonin* an hour before I went to bed. This shit is getting old.

Truth. At least for me it is, although I’m beginning to think I’m in the minority on this one. But while lying awake last night, I realized for sure that I don’t want someone who is faking it, and I...

I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again: it really irks me when John Mayer makes sense.
Sooooo…this coming Saturday is the American Heart Association Heart Ball. Due to company sponsorship I have tickets and feel obligated to make an appearance. I know it’s for a good cause, but it starts at 5 (!!) and will be totally Cocialite-y (read: BORING and self-important). Luckily a friend’s husband is throwing her a surprise birthday party that same night so I have a good...

So when I can’t sleep, I like to watch Big Cat Diaries.* My television was on Animal Planet when I got home from work last night. I got sucked in to two shows that America is missing out on…The Snake Man (I think. About a family in West Virginia. The dad is a snake handler. He holds church services while shaking and handling poisonous snakes…as long as God “moves on...
Thursday confession: I so wish the word “macabre” was pronounced “MAC-uh-ber”.
“I’m really starting to learn the ropes to the ultimate sh*t show that is Toddlers and Tiaras. Personally I think it should be called ‘Jon Benet’s Angels.’ Either way, there’s a lot going on in this episode and by ‘a lot’ I of course mean, ‘there’s a Russian mother named Marina that I am now obsessed with.’”

Via Facebook, from a friend’s pre-school aged son, after he watched a seemingly harmless National Geographic show about babies:

Nothing like working shopping for sexy new undies to bring a girl out of her funk. If I keep telling myself that, it’ll be true, right?
