“She wore an expression - was it confidence? sarcasm? - which ensured that no one...”
– I’ve been told on multiple occasions (sometimes by strangers) that I have this “way” about me. I am always equally mortified and proud. I’ve become a real New Yorker! (But something tells me I’ve always had it in me…)

What I'm doing on this 100+ degree day:
Let me set the scene for you… I left work at 1pm (Yay Summer Fridays!) and somehow made it home in the oppressive heat. Now I am sitting inside on my couch, AC blasting, wearing a new bikini and coverup I just got and wanted to lay out in (yeah right, thanks heat advisory), eating a Sprinkles Salted Caramel cupcake and watching the Real Housewives of New York.
Who needs to lay out again?...
Things that make you go Hmmmm.
Christian: I found the worst picture of us ever! Look!

Me: I don't look that bad...
Christian: Babe! You look like a demon.

Little girl comes up to me on the street and taps...
“I like your purse and skirt and belt and and and and…. your shoes!!!!”
Thank you little stranger.
Well then.
Me: I feel like I would be good at soccer. Thoughts?
Christian: No, I don't think so.

How to make a Monday AMAZING:
Book not one, but TWO summer trips!
Cape Cod (my first time!) for Fourth of July Weekend!
California (my first love!) for ten days in August.
CAN’T WAIT!
Yesterday I started a new job.
So I got promoted. Same company, more senior position, bigger salary.
Different boss, different team, different area. I miss my boss, I miss my team, I miss my area.
I cried when I got home last night.
I really don’t cope well with change.
I know I’m crazy and ridiculous, and I’m aware that things will get better, it takes time to adjust, and so on.
Today one small thing...
“It’s a beautiful coffin isn’t it?”
– Older man to me in the Egyptian gallery at the Met. Hmm not sure that’s the way to pick up women, buddy.
