I'm Hungry
And I am in SoHo. And I would like some ramen noodles. Does anyone know of any good ramen noodle (soup) places that either a) deliver to SoHo or are in close-ish walking distance?
Note: I am aware of all noodle shops located in the East Village, none of them deliver here.
Possibly Gay Socks Are Now Living In My Apartment →
“I recently walked past a seriously gay store in the seriously gay neighborhood I live in and spotted some awesome socks in the window. These socks were so awesome I just wanted them on my feet immediately, regardless of their sexual orientation…Once I got the socks back home, I kept my eye on them for a while to see if they did anything particularly queer or not…Similarly, I...

Co-Worker: I'll be there for you.
Me: [fuck, he read my blog.]
Co-Worker: The Rembrandts.

A Stupid Video Post Disguised As A Text Post, Or,...
Sometimes people feel the need to put little links to Very Important Things in their GChat windows. Usually, I ignore them. Every now and then, particularly when it’s a YouTube address, I feel compelled to click, because - why not? It might be funny. And obviously this person has found it sufficiently interesting and as such felt an undeniable need to Share It With The World. I feel...

Is It Lunch Time Yet?
Ugh. I’m tired. Very tired. And I also feel as puffy as the goddamn marshmallow man after last night’s four-hour, five-course gastronomical pleasure fest. A few things to note:
Mario Batali likes salt. Which is a good thing, because so do I.
This: Handmade Orecchiette with Lamb Sausage, Funghi Misti & Spring Onion was the best thing I have ever tasted. I flagged the waiter down...

The first thing you see when you come out of the subway is a crushed dead pigeon. Guts and all.
Also, my best friend is out of a job. Happy Monday!
Judas!

I’m eating corn with a fork made out of corn. I hope they didn’t know each other back on the farm. That would be awkward.
Fork: Stabbity stabbity, corn! Hop on top of me!
Corn: Ouch! Fuck, that hurts! Wait, what the fuck?! PAUL?!
Fork: Uhhh, nope? You must be mistaking me for someone else.
HAHAHAHAHAHA. This is funny. It made me laugh. So I had to share it.

I'm Happy Today
Because on my walk to work, my iPod shuffled alphabetically moved from Erasure’s “Always” to Pet Shop Boys’ “Always I Want To Be With You,” and that’s a good medley.
Update: On second thought. My iPod did not shuffle from one to the other…it was clearly going in alphabetical order. I’m an idiot.
Frangry gave me the hiccups.
“I’m about to go apply for more jobs. This whole experience has really...”

American Widow Project: Tara's Story →
So, we’ve just started a new weekly series with the American Widow Project, a non-profit and doggedly non-political group dedicated to helping the more than 2,000 widows of American soldiers come together to share their stories and find support in each other. This is the first in the series. It’s long, but I recommend you read it. I’m immensely happy to be helping them share...

Are You Registered? →
I don’t know if anyone else is as retarded as I am, but I have been seriously confused about whether I was registered to vote. And if I was, where? And if I wasn’t, how to fix it. Anyway, a friend forwarded me this link and it’s like Voter Registration for Dummies. Seriously. They even use soothing pastel colors and bright bubbly letters. And if that’s not a winning...
