i've been ignoring this thing.

Between Columbia grad school orientation (I know, right? Seriously...) and happy hours with single serving friends and goodbyes and happy birthdays and hopping on skateboards in Union Square, I haven't spent too much time in front of my Macbook, let alone Blogger.

Oh, and I may be dying.

When I first moved back into Manhattan, I spent 3 days scrubbing away mold and mildew, scraping burnt edges off the stove top, Swiffering all the dust and dust-friends up (one room alone = 3 dry Swiffers & 1 wet one!), and washing out the rugs, curtains, and futon covers. I'm pretty sure that some of that gunk got into my lungs, hence the immense hacking, the trouble breathing, the stuffed up yet runny nose, and the incredibly hoarse voice.

But I promise to settle down, get better, and return to normal life soon.

In other news, new hoops came in FINALLY! Unfortunately the wrong color and not as quality as my old hoop but I'm getting pink gaffer tape soon, yay.

90's dance party!!!

WORD ON THE STREET IS THAT BOWERY POETRY CLUB IS HOSTING A 90'S PROM THEME DANCE PARTY -- you know what that means: BSB, Spice Girls, Limp Bizkit, and the rest of the fabulous 90's rock, pop, & hip hop. And y'all know how I'm a 90's music fan.

AND rumor also has it that Green Street may be gracing the venue with their presence and performance that night...so go out & support them.

Details can be found on the site or, better yet, the Facebook event invite.

Sunday, September 6th @ 10:00pm
$5, but if you dress up in 90's gear (& you know I will be there in my light-wash jeans & flannel get-up) it's only $3.

See you there, all grunged up perhaps!

Public Service Announcement: If you plan on going to the party, mention that you're on A-Live's or Ani's list.

karmaloop blog.

My eyes caught a Karmaloop ad on Nylon's website, which caused me to click on it and venture to their Karmaloop Blog...

Look what I found. Awesome for Green Street but poo for the lack of credit on the photo.
