Movies watched on plane:
Les Mis - ***
Moonrise Kingdom -**
Wreck-It Ralph - ****
Also I decided that the lawyer I like reminds me a bit of Ed Norton, and also I identify way too much with Eponine. Gotta change that!

The dude playing Llewyn Davis reminds me a lot of Jake Johnson. I wish it *was* Jake Johnson.

two more things
Two more to be filed under “The New York Times is ON IT.” One: That whole article about Random Access Memories is all “we got real musicians!” “we wanted authentic sound!” And yet Casablancas and whoever sings “Within” are both autotuned like crazy. Two: Pity the author of the article about topknots (what was *that* assignment meeting like?). Also, I...
guess who doesn't want to pack?
This rain totally blows. I have *things* to do, and I wanted to go the gym but RAIN. I have to make myself start packing tonight, or at least laying out my clothes and whatnots. I’m not going to be able to sleep tomorrow night; I know it.

Isn’t it funny how I’m perfectly fine talking to him at a happy hour, but when it comes time to discuss actual work, I get all flustered and inarticulate? I’m more articulate after 3 glasses of whiskey than I was on the phone this afternoon. It’s because I don’t really know what I’m talking about and I don’t want to sound like a dumbass, and yet I wind up...

Ugh, Don Draper is seriously grossing me out in this episode.

two totally unrelated things
1. Aw, Patrick Stump’s tumblr post!
2. It really bothers me that this PUNK exhibit is the best thing that the Met could come up with this year. They’ve already had elements of punk within the Anglomania and McQueen exhibits and it’s just so…tired. So uninspired. Lowest common denominator, I guess. And here I thought the Prada/Schiaparelli thing last year was silly. I...

IPad video camera resolution suuuucks, but C saying “I don’t know how you get pictures of fish” is funny.
I seriously want to start a photo study that documents how lovely my hair looks at home and then how crappy it looks by the time I get to work, which is only 20 minutes later.

The day after I decide I’m done with him, he calls me a couple of times and asks questions that he could have asked months ago. Not reading into it, but it’s ironic. Also, when he starts going gray, it’s going to be a sad day indeed.

Well, that crush was fun while it lasted. I just wish I had other prospects, you know?

In the midst of This Terrible Crush, Kate Nash’s “we get on” is incredibly relevant. I can only hope that what happens to her in the song doesn’t happen to me.

Who has 2 thumbs and just passed up a golden opportunity to ask a guy out???

As of tomorrow, I will have been at my job for 1 year. Among other things, it has involved a lot of dudes wearing fleece vests and me dancing/twirling in elevator banks. Also, my boss managed to make me getting hit by a car last spring into a running joke. Go figure.

There are certain moments in life that compel a person to drink an entire bottle of wine in one night. I have reached that moment. So, okay, good to know.

If I’m being honest, tonight is about drinking pinot noir and listening to “American Weekend” and trying not to cry. I’ll be better tomorrow.

I am legitimately bummed that I don’t like this new Kate Nash album more. I love “My Best Friend is You” so, so, much. The songs really do make me Feel Things. Can’t win ‘em all, right? On the other hand, Waxahatchee is now in my life, and I listen to “American Weekend” a whole lot.

Guess who resigned?

Oh, you know. Just planting myself in my boss’s office while HE is in there and playing with his (thick, thick) hair and doodling intently. I don’t know if I’m being totally obvious and off-putting. My friend D always says I give guys too much credit - that they’re not as perceptive as I think they are. On the other hand, I did want to listen in on the meeting so that I would know what was going...

Why did you come up to allegedly add data to the contract? Why did you give me some lame excuse? I don’t lose things. That contract was very safe on my desk. I was going to see you anyway. Were you bored? You didn’t do anything to the contract. You didn’t add anything. But you made some jokes. And we talked about the NCAA. And then you went silent again.

Solo, endless, skip-y dance party to “Young Volcanoes.” Also, Park Avenue had its Cute Dog Game on LOCK tonight. I absolutely winked at a Norwich Terrier (it’s really my dream dog).

It’s cute how I keep thinking I can wear maxi dresses.
