I'm a HUGE fan of The Small Things blog. Her look is pretty natural/pretty, rather than full-blown DONE, and I adore it. It's where I learned how to used a flat iron to give my hair loose curls/waves. As for fashion, she does a really great mix of Target-price-points and more expensive things, so you never feel (in…

This just made my WEEK. So much love for Jem. I went as a "punk rocker" (I clearly had no idea what that really was) for Halloween one year, based mostly on her & Cyndi Lauper. It was epic.

I had Barbie & the Rockers. In fact, the flimsy little record that came with one of them is somewhere at my dad's.

My mom used…

Yes! Perfection - thank you!

Um, this MAKES me want to drive a Packard. Or just have a rational excuse for driving a Packard. Because hawtness and holy Whoa.

Having JUST bought (and received - OMG, greatest day of days!!!) a print of a greyhound riding a 1920s bicycle from LoopyLolly over on Etsy, I say I MUST HAVE ALL of these sloth prints.

Because this is how I'm spending my Adult Art Dollars. On totally ridic things that make me giddily happy.

Even though it's fake, I'm not sure Minnesota could handle TWO major victories in one day.

There is an ABC pilot starring Rebel Wilson as a "dorky lawyer." UM, WHERE ARE MY ROYALTIES, ABC?!

(Seriously - my cousin's 2-year-old daughter called me "Fat Amy" less than 48 hours ago. And I'm really a lawyer. And still pretty nerdy. On a more positive note, I love me some Rebel Wilson. On a less positive note,…

My break up plan? Aside from pantsless's Choose Your Own Adventure (which is scarily similar to my own), I'm going to take that guitar he gave me for Christmas. And I'm going to teach myself how to play it, even if my not-super-long-fingers have proven to be a bit of a roadblock to that endeavor. And then I'm going…

Same!

I've seen the camo used as accents - the ties for the guys, and then the bride went with sage green for her maids' dresses and some accents. That was actually really tasteful.

I think a camo dress for prom could be pretty cute - at that age, you can really rock just about anything! As for a wedding dress, though .…

So far, none of the people I'm close enough to to be invited to their wedding has gone the Mossy Oak route. There is a commercial up here that airs frequently (I'm trying to find a link) that is for either the WI lottery or a casino. Kid wins jackpot, is super excited to show his fiancee the winnings, plans…

I don't lie when it comes to camo-themed weddings.

I've seen plenty of camo (actually, "Mossy Oak")/blaze orange-themed weddings in Wisconsin. The hot pink is a new little twist, though.

I can't recall watching that one. I'll add it to the rotation! :)

True Facts About Slothssszzz is my go-to clip when I'm having a bummer of a day. I ALWAYS laugh. Always. Then angler-fish one is pretty great, too.

Oh. My . . . I adore her & want to hang out with her!

So much perfection. We truly lost a treasure one year ago. Having spent my high school and college years collecting Beastie Boys memorabilia and records, I grew to love them as a group and for the wonderful things they did for people and humanity in general. It was the blasting of Beastie Boys on freshman move-in…

I haven't had the full-blown experience, but alcoholism runs rampant in my dad's family. This is why when Lindsey was first getting into trouble, it seemed ridiculous & annoying. Now, looking at it through that lens, it is genuinely sad. This girl needs help, and is acting out, and SO MANY PEOPLE in her life are…

Leading with the tragic (and I genuinely am feeling just sad for her now) LiLo, covering the FFace Von Clownstick debacle, dropping a MST3K reference (clip!), and ending with Nelly (which brought me RIGHT back to nasty, cramped, sweaty college house/frat parties).

Lindy, you are my spirit interwebz animal.

Brandy or whiskey . . . but also simple syrup, bitters, and a mixer - either Sprite/7Up if you want sweet, or a sour mix/soda if you want sour. I explained this to a friend of mine once (not from WI), and she was horrified.

I used to bartend - made the mistake of making a proper Manhattan for a client once. He reamed…
