...On why I'm the best friend ever.
One of my best friends always talks about how she wishes she could have a really nice Coach purse. She’s had countless knock-offs, but never a real one, because she’s less prone to spoiling herself (unlike me).

You know you work in a geeky science company...
You see this as a part of someone’s auto-signature at the bottom of their email:

Yuck.
One of those days where I think,
“Yes, I know there are other people with problems far worse than mine, but I need a hug and to know that everything is going to be okay.”

Meet Me in St. Louis
One of my absolute favorite things about Meet Me in St. Louis is a look at just how proper things were back in 1904.

A very characteristic conversation
KATHLEEN: Sad story only you will understand: I was dreaming of a piece of Nick's leftover baby shower cake from Wednesday. When I went in to go get a piece, it was all in the trash! For about 2 seconds I considered taking some out.
KATE: that is just wrong
KATHLEEN: me going in for it, or throwing it away?
KATE: throwing it away...I mean, please don't eat garbage cake.
KATHLEEN: phew, you scared me.
KATE: but yeah, travesty.
KATHLEEN: It was upsetting. the frosting was chocolate whipped cream. It tasted like pudding....PUDDING CAKE!

I love being a girl.
If I had my way right now I would murder an entire box of puppy chow or dessert popcorn.

Normal?
The past few months I’ve found that I am much more content staying at home by myself on weekends relaxing and watching a movie than going out. I’m 25 so I feel like I am SUPPOSED to want to go out at night and go to bars and get drunk, blah, blah, blah. The truth is, I’m so happy that I had to opportunity this evening to make dessert popcorn, set up my Christmas tree, and I am...
