ME TOOOOOO!!!!!

Having lived there for a year, I can confirm Thundercat’s tip; walk! The Tube Map is one of the world’s greatest pieces of graphic design for making your journey legible, but it really hides just how short some of those journeys are. My favourite was watching Americans walking into South Ken station to get the train…

Camden! Camden markets for top notch thrifting and assorted treasures, The Good Mixer, Camden Assembly and Joe’s for music and booze (and boy watching, if that’s your thing) and All Ages, Ra-Ra Rok and Out on the Floor if you’re into record shopping. I lived in London for a year and could go on ad nauseam about all my…

If you like fish ‘n’ chips, get thyself to Poppies. If you’re all about burgers and chicken, get thyself to Dirty Burger. I hated living in London with a passion, but these two places I miss.

1. You can walk right in to a lot of hard-to-get-into restaurants as a singleton. I especially enjoyed NOPI and BAO Soho, though I did wait in line for the latter.

Two of the pubs on the hidden pubs walk are in the neighborhood of the Inns of Court walk: Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese (go downstairs and check out the bar in the vault) and the Edgar Wallace. Maybe stop by one (or both!) after your inns of court walk. Chi Noodle and Wine Bar is also in that area and quite good for eat-in…

Are you a big reader? I loved The Treasures Room at the British Library. My friend and I spent hours in there.

London! London is my favorite and I almost always go by myself.

Hi all, how have you been? :)

Yup. The one time I called in sick when I had a paper to write I made sure to come in the next day with zero makeup.

Weekly Achievement Thread! What have you done this week that we should know about? Tell us here so that we can crow about it with you!

camden market...if memory serves its every saturday

Just in time to see the giant Jeff Goldblum statue!

He's not supposed to be on the table and he knows it :)

It’s day three without hot water in my apartment. I took a freezing cold shower and this is me

My dad passed a year ago, his will was changed before he died, our step mom, who my brother and I don’t know very well and never got along with, somehow was the only person in his will.

I haven't been doing complicated nail art lately bc I'm packing my apartment so half my polish is wrapped up and the end result would just get ruined anyway. But I can't go NUDE, so....

The first time in a while SNS is early enough for me to participate! This is Mishto, it’s his fifteenth birthday (around) today. He was rescued from a house that had thirty cats living in it, so no one was keeping track of the birthdays over there.

I finally got Big Foot to get in the pool on Thursday and again briefly yesterday. Apparently it is her fear of seizure while in the water that has been keeping her out of it. Fingers crossed, she will make it one more hour and then she will have only had 2 for the month of June. I also believe that by this time next…

Someone pulled a gun at the protest in Huntsville, AL. The news article makes it sound like HSV PD stepped in swiftly but I’ve heard from someone there that they weren’t gonna do shit to the guy until they realized how much attention they were getting and how the story would likely spread.
