Water is the New Coke...

Once upon a time, I was a Diet Coke addict. Addict you say? I know what you're thinking "I love Diet Coke too! I have one with lunch, I have one with dinner!". Well my sweet sweet friends, my addiction went far beyond that. The problem was coupled with enablers (Chelsea... Kristin...) who also loved soda (Chelsea Coke & Dr. Pepper, and Kristin Caffeine Free Diet Coke). It was bad and running my life (kinda like a pussy kid from the suburbs Meth). So I quit and replaced Diet Coke with this...


Poland Spring Sparkling Water (preferably the Orange variety). The orange flavor is as good as a clementine (which my roommates Bubby send's from Palm Beach every year) and the bubbles (as stupid as this might sound) are just big enough. Not enough for contstant burping (ew), but enough to let you know HEY! I'm a SPARKLING water!

And Hey... You know I like ANYTHING that Sparkles

A HUGE Day!!

OK I don't want to over sell this... but today is the BIGGEST DAY OF THE YEAR! Britney Spears HIGHLY anticipated album "Circus" drops! Annnnnnnd... she announced her TOUR!!! She will be in Boston March 16th, and I've got presale tickets (can you tell I'm excited?) Below are my thoughts on the new CD "Circus".


In all, I love it. But honestly she could warbble and croak through the danish alphabet, throw in a few "are you ready?"'s and "baby baby"'s and I would be rocking out to it. But I promise, Circus is far better then that (really). It starts out with a bang with Womanizer (her first #1 since Baby One More Time) and keeps rocking into the new single "Circus". It rounds itself out with the ballad "My Baby", assumingly about her boys. The album tells more of a story they it appears at first listen. Keep a close eye on the lyrics, they're not as superficial and friviousl as you might think.

Stand Out: Circus, If You Seek Amy, Blur (you might think its a song about a hook-up, but it's actually a song about the aftermath of the night she was committed...)

This is Circus. Love it, or Hate Me.

Mega Cheap

Like a hooker's shoes. No no, like MegaBus! It's the cheapest way to get to/from NYC from Boston. I love to travel, but with repaying student loans, and those credit cards (where's my bail out?!) it's not in the budget to be jet setting like I want. And I used to go to NYC a couple times a month (remember that loser I dated who lived in Jersey but claimed it was NYC?) but since then, there hasn't been a reason for me to spend buckets of money to get to New York. So the solution... MegaBus.


At least one seat on each run to/from NYC from Boston is priced at $2.50. And no, I'm not "pulling on your legs" (as the indian woman in my office says) I cannot tell a lie (unless I'm looking to get in bed with you). It's cheap enough so you can splurge on fun things in the City like Theatre Tickets, A "Gucci" bag on Canal street, or my personal favorite drinks (lots of them) @ Sushi Samba in the West Village (try the Samba Juice). Don't forget to buy a round trip ticket! Tickets can only be purchased online (WOO HOO Paperless!)

Bbbbbblog!

It's the day after thanksgiving and lucky me, I'm at work. Being the big cheese is hard (cry for me please). So while I won't be doing any ACTUAL work today, I will be reading lots of blogs (which hardly differs from most days). Below are some of my favorite blogs.

Perez Hilton
(The Queen Of All Media. Get your daily dose of celeb gossip in the trashiest format possible)

Officesaurus
(My friend Amy's BF's blog. Its dinosaurs put into crappy office job situations. HYSTERICAL)

Breathe Heavy
(The OFFICIAL Britney Spears fan site. It's basically like a Britney Spears facebook. They must have a GPS on that bitch)

Geekologie
(Check out all the latest geeky techy things.)

Passive-Aggressive Notes
(HYSTERICAL. Get ready to laugh your ass off. It's just what is says, a collection of submissions of passive-aggressive notes. If you have roommates this site is a MUST)

Cake Wrecks
(When professional cakes go HORRIBLY wrong. It makes you realize that there are people in the world dumber then you)

As you sit in a stuffing stupor of left overs and bad morning TV. Sit back and enjoy these blogs. And think of me @ the office toiling tirelessly over marketing-like things. (Or really just reading these blogs.)

Today, I'm Thankful for...

STOVE TOP STUFFING! Ok so I get excited over stuffing, what can I say? For a carb craver like me, Thanksgiving is the best time of year. Just fill my plate with stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes and crescent rolls and I'm good (hold the turkey and veggies please). But I must admit, I love stuffing all year round and there have been PLENTY of drunk munchie nights when I wish I had this...
A single serving stuffing cup!! Stove Top FINALLY (I mean come on we can put a man on the moon...) have individual servings of stuffing! 45 Seconds in the "nukerwave" and BINGO! Thanksgiving anytime. It sure beats teetering a hot pot of stuffing on my stomach while I'm drunk and ready to pass out on the couch (I'm pulling from personal experiences here).

Happy Thanksgiving

Plop Plop, Fizz Fizz...

I feel like garbage. What could turn this day around you ask? Easy, Alka Seltzer Plus Cold. When I'm feeling like I've been run over by a truck full of beer (It was the drink that killed him.. Mrs. Doubtfire anyone?) I pop a couple of these in a tall glass of water and chug like a frat boy on spring break (ORLANDO '05!! WOO HOO).

The Effervescence makes my nose all tingly and the orange flavor makes it just a little more bearable. But hey, this could taste like Liver and I would still take it. This bad mama-jamma works like nothing else.

A Day Without Fingers

On your glove's that is! Fingerless gloves are one of the best invention of our time (well kinda...) If you're a texting nut like me they're the perfect thing to keep your hands warm while your fingertips get their work out. Or for the occasional smoke (cough cough) they're great to flick a lighter without having to worry about your fingers catching on fire.



Check out these Wool & Cashmere versions from JCrew (my fav store). They've got them in Blue or Red for a pop of color with that boring black North Face you always wear (admit it, you know it's true). And best of all they're on sale $20.00. A perfect gift for boyfriend, brother, uncle, cousin... well you get the idea.
