The Trouble With Signs

I am not your soulmate. I am a burnt piece of toast.

You know how if you think there’s a chance you’re pregnant you see pregnant women everywhere? Or when you meet someone new & exciting, the radio won’t stop playing that song he played for you that you’d never even heard before? Or [...]

Update

Hey, macaroons!

Fashion Fridays have been a bit difficult to keep up with due to an insanely busy work schedule, but I promise, better things are coming! Considering my daily attire consists of tan shorts, some kind of top, Sketchers Shape-Ups, name tags & a radio for keeping updated on park operations, I’m feeling pretty uninspired [...]

30 Before 30 Revised

What do you want to accomplish, macaroons?

On April 22, 2014 I will turn 30 years old. Last October, I posted my 30 before 30- a list of things I want to accomplish or experience before my 30th birthday. After about a year of being largely uninspired by my list, I’ve revamped it a bit. [...]

Office Etiquette

Your poor coworkers…

In my first job out of grad school, I picked up a lot of peeves. Many of these annoyances can easily be kept in check. Be respectful & professional at all times & everyone will get through the 9-5 with a little less nail biting and teeth grinding.

What did you think you'd be when you grew up?

Right now, I’m managing development of a retail department for an amusement park. It’s not what I [...]

Plan Z

It's your worst case scenario, but at least there's pudding!

Recently, I read this post on Yes & Yes in which a guest blogger fantasizes about her absolute worst case scenario: Plan Z. It kind of frightened me because I’m already living my Plan B so if I’m going to be steadily working through my [...]

We Interrupt...

your regular Thursday reading material to remind you to drink a whole ton of freakin’ water, macaroons. Yesterday I was on a “business” trip to Six Flags Great Adventure for some retail espionage (& roller coasters on the side). It was almost 100 degrees all day & I was sweating more than I have in [...]

Muffin Top & You

Macaroons, I’d like to talk to you about an issue plaguing this country. An issue I encounter 42,652 times a day within the tourist population. An issue that can so easily be solved, making the world a more beautiful place & making you more comfortable at the same time. Macaroons, I’m talking about muffin top.

Moleskine vs Filofax

MoMA Pocket Moleskine vs Mini Metropol Filofax

I can’t use digital planners, macaroons. Not that I don’t know how, but I just love the feeling of a solid little book in my hands. I love the feel of pen on paper; it helps me remember appointments in a way that just don’t click in [...]

How to Quit Your Job

I did it, macaroons! I escaped from my old job! As miserable as my old job made me, that’s how happy, productive & valued my new job makes me feel. Even when you’re unhappy, it’s not always easy to leave. Here are some tips & guidelines on how to quit your [...]
