I Gotta Say...
This is the best birthday ever. Our servers went down in the HuffPost offices so they kicked us out. I went with Anya (co-editor) to her place in brooklyn to work from her roofdeck. (Yes, it involves some squinting, but its entirely possible to work from laptop in the sun.) Then we got hungry, so we took a stroll down to Frankie’s and I’m in their back garden waiting on my Cavatelli...

I love Canada. (And hilarious YouTube-ers: “They’re exactly the same as REGULAR Shreddies! Just turned on their side! ARGH!!”)
On The Radio...
For all you West Coast / Puget Sound-based Tumblrs, I’m going to be chit-chatting away on 710 KIRO’s “Too Beautiful To Live” show starting at 7:30. The topic at hand, is, of course, why attractive women date ‘ugly’ men. Because I, apparently, am an expert on the topic.
how to make great or happy sex with a very ugly woman
– What someone typed into Google that brought them to my Why Women Date Unattractive Men post. Also: Proof that there is some good left in the world.
Really?
I’m browsing the $1 books at the strand and the girl next to me just called the old, adorable carrot-peeler man in Union Square a “douchebag”. She is carrying a bag from Strawberry.
Why Women Date Ugly Men (And Probably Even Prefer... →
It’s a pretty well known fact that most women - attractive women - will happily date ugly men. We see it on TV — in shows like King of Queens, though I would probably argue that Kevin James is kind of a stud, and really, that’s exactly the point I plan on making— and we see it in our friends. There are plenty of studies on this strangely anti-Darwinian phenomenon -...

Dan and Serena! In real life!!
“It’s SO hard growing TITS!” UPDATE: Damnit. I didn’t realize that Sharingtime had already reblogged this from somewhere. So don’t eveyone think that I was pulling some re-blog / no credit shenanigans. I found it all by myself.
I just had a wonderful walk home, after a delicious dinner with perfect company. Now it’s time to catch up on Gossip Girl. It’s going to be a sleepy day tomorrow. Goodnight, all.
O.M.F.G. (Duh.) Is anyone else freaking the eff out about next week’s episode? Also, Serena’s mystery hook-up man? MY FRIEND. Yes, you heard that right. If I can get him to spill, I promise to share.
Spotted: Joel (or possibly Benji) Madden at Westville East.

I am absolutely braindead. And I have one big post to write for tomorrow AM on my theories regarding women and ugly men. I also have dinner plans, and have to be at the airport at 6AM tomorrow, for a quick trip home for the weekend. Whee!

Thank you, Daily Mail, for once again displaying your headline-writing prowess with a by no means gratuitous use of the word “pussy.” Also — the photos are kind of creepy. Poor kitten.
And then there’s that arresting foie gras, a torchon of which is frozen so it...

Friday Night
lovepuppy: Oooh. 12:15am and home on a Friday night never felt so good. Window open, down comforter and dreamland. Ahhhh. I’m home too, curled up on the carpet watching Wednesday’s Top Chef — this is my favorite kind of Friday. Happy weekend!
