I have to work from 10-3 today.
And I plan to do as little as possible the entire time.
Happy 4th of July weekend!

My best friend Billy Scafuri writes a web comic called The Librarianist, illustrated by his friend Tim Bierbaum. Their stuff has gotten better and better lately and I think this one is brilliant. Come to think of it, they’ve all been brilliant lately. Another personal favorite is one from a few weeks ago called “Sticker.”
Click the image to be taken to their site and check it out. I loves.
Oh and Billy’s a pervy jerk.
Ahhhhhh! SNAAAAAAIL!!!!
It stormed this afternoon and apparently THESE little guys pop out all over the driveway and sidewalk right in front of Kevin’s (my new) apartment when it storms. WHAT! Crazy. And gross. (And I could not get a good, in-focus picture to save my life.)

Good Morning Friday.
My darling BF is going out of town this weekend for an improv festival (Go SidViscous!) and based on my readings in The Female Brain (see below) I’ve concluded that our brain chemicals will miss each other. But at least I get the apt to myself!
We’re moving in together. Have I told you? I move my shit in next weekend. “I”, in this case, means me and some boys with muscles. I have muscles too. We’ll see if I use them…
I’ve already had a full morning, leaving the house extra early to pick up my headshot CD from the photographer before work. AND I got the most delicious egg sandwich from the cart by my office. Good god, that was an incredible egg sandwich. And the nice gentleman who made it gave me a wink as I paid for it. It made me feel like he really took his time to make the sandwich especially for me. He probably just had something in his eye.
I’m enjoying my life right now. Despite a few minor annoyances, despite the horrible ergonomics of my desk/chair/keyboard situation at work, despite the impending Introduce Our Cats fiasco that will happen when I move into Kevin’s, despite the looming summer thunderstorms, I am pretty glad to be alive. Moving into Kevin’s is going to be so great. I’m already working out more (huge living room to spread out my pilates mat; prospect park - for running - is one block away), eating better (big ol’ kitchen which encourages cooking), and I feel more relaxed (no more “Where are my glasses?! Did I pack my glasses?! I left my sneakers at home! My cat needs to be fed! Can you sleep in Queens tonight!?) since I’ve begun to sleep at Kev’s more often and am slowly making the transition into becoming a Brooklynite. Yikes!
Let’s go get another egg sandwich. Right?

Although I am not someone who generally picks up books of this nature, I grabbed this on a whim a couple weeks ago while waiting for a train at Grand Central and I was instantly sucked in. I have really been enjoying the read and have learned a TON about human physiology. We are fascinating creatures.
On a separate but decidedly related note, I had some chocolate ten minutes ago and have been delighting in a calm, europhic, serene state ever since. Mmmmm…

This really makes me laugh.
OMG I just got stuck in an old lady trap! I went outside to pick a rose and there was a lady walking her dog. She lives near us and has been living in this neighborhood since she was 19. She talked to me for sooooo long. At first it was pretty interesting because she was telling me about the people who used to live in the houses around us, but in the end she was describing in detail her favorite Animal Planet show, some kind of animal grooming competition.

why it works
- Jen: You're either totally crazy or totally lovely.
- Kevin: And here's to you never quite being able to decide which one.
