Besmirched Troubadour

  1. Thoughts on my new purple jacket...

    People talk to me a lot more on elevators. 

    Is it because I look like Barney and am no longer threatening?

  2. Didi: Stu, what are you doing? Stu: Making chocolate pudding. Didi: It’s four o’clock in the morning! Why on earth are you making chocolate pudding? Stu: Because I’ve lost control of my life.

  3. Sometimes, a flirtatious interaction with a barista is all it takes to turn the day around.

  4. Good effing morning.

  5. [Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

    It’s music day!  I love this song, and I love this cover of this song.

  7. We all want to be Liz Lemon from 30 Rock, but some of us have to be Ms. Norbury from Mean Girls.  Them’s just the breaks.

  8. I'm using the Lose It! app for iPhone.

    And it was a little disconcerting that under last night’s dinner entry, it just says “whiskey.”

  9. My new gig involves sitting in the lobby area of a guitar and toy manufacturer.  They pump in some rock radio station all day, so I’m learning a lot of songs I probably would’ve been aware of if I didn’t emerge fully-formed some time during 2001. 

    It took me four days to realize when they announce “Underwritten by The New England Cryogenic Center” they are referring to a sponsorship, not a song and a band. 

  10. Varsity Baby Flush and Cheer Potty Chair

    I’m going to keep an eye on this company and purchase a Boston College potty as soon as it becomes available.  I don’t even know if I want kids, but everyone is allowed to have one crazy-eyes, make-your-SO-run-for-the-hills item hidden in the depths of their closet.  This will be mine.
