If I have to put up with pro-Romney posts on...
Seriously, people? How can you be THAT for the guy? Ew.

GUESS WHAT I FOUND TONIGHT.
You’ll never guess.
Give up? Okay, I’ll tell you.
THE ELEPHANT BELT AT ANTHROPOLOGIE! The store had a few left. In my size. Couldn’t. Believe. My. Own. Eyes.
I wasn’t even going to go in. I hadn’t even considered the fact that the store may still have some, because the last time I was there they had one left.
But this fuzzy pink thing caught my eye, and when it...

EEEK! It's HAPPENING.
Okay, so these aren’t paid job offers like I wish they were, but here’s the scoop:
If you missed this memo, I was the assistant director for the 5th & 6th grade musical at my former elementary school this past spring. I absolutely loved it, and was incredibly sad when it was all over. I miss those kids!! And I was involved in a lot of the decision making and training, which...
321chickman answered your question: FRIENDS. KIDS. HOW WAS YOUR FIRST DAY/TWO DAYS BACK IN CLASSES???
Uhh…good? Nothing spectacular, though I did manage to lock myself out of my room already. Actually on my first night here…
Does your RA make you do anything stupid to get back into your room if you lock yourself out? My friend’s RA made us sing all the way from the front desk to her third...
FRIENDS. KIDS. HOW WAS YOUR FIRST DAY/TWO DAYS...
Well, college kids.
I actually wish I were starting classes this week.
Tell me stories. :)
Please?

321chickman replied to your photo: $20 Amazon card for working 12 hours yesterday?…
You’d think after several years of working there they’d know how to spell your name though…
You would, but in all fairness this is the district manager who wrote me the wall of awesome card. She usually just hears me say “Hey Lisa, it’s Ali from Walden!” in my voicemails and phone calls...

HOLY SHIT BURN NOTICE FINALE WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO...
YOU THINK I CAN WAIT UNTIL NOVEMBER FOR A NEW EPISODE?
ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?
GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Explain to me why my anthro order shipped from South Carolina to Atlanta when its final destination is Buffalo. Yeeah, let’s spend money shipping it south only to send it as far north as possible without it leaving the country.
Still kind of shocked that Nick’s response to my hesitation with making time for a doctor’s appointment was to tell me that if I just call and schedule it and get off from work, he’ll take me, sit with me in the appointment, hold my hand for the bloodwork and whatever the news on my wrist is, and then take me to Vidler’s and “that coffee shop you like so much”...
xbostons:
what if every spider i’ve ever crushed thought it was like, living in my house with me the whole time and one day i just flew off the handle and murdered it. like it just thought we were hanging out together.
has every spider died while feeling a sense of betrayal.
literally everyone on here is on drugs
…I made Dad kill one an hour ago and I let one escape in my room not...
Five years ago, I was embarking on my journey to...
And I’m looking at Facebook to see pictures of one of my former classmates on the set of Smash. SMASH. Like….WHAT?
Life, you sure have a sense of humor.
Today was both awesome and weird.
Had a day off. Vowed to enjoy this rare occurrence.
Went to the Elmwood Art Festival with Nicholas and my parents.
Spent five minutes with my BCAS loves…words cannot even describe how excited I am to start rehearsals again.
Badgered Matthew into putting his name on the audition list (finally!) - YAY.
Got a free BPC CD. Does that make me a traitor? Haha. BPC = Buffalo Philharmonic...

321chickman replied to your post: Ali dear, with as much as you read, have you ever happened to read anything by John Green? (Also, you’ll be pleased to know that per your recommendation I’ve picked up One Woman Short for reading during my rare downtime at school)
Ooo…once you do get around to it, I think you’ll find him to have quite a way with words. Looking for Alaska and The Fault in Our Stars...

2012 50 Book Challenge - Book #18
Marry Him - Lori Gottlieb
Okay. I’m going to start with this (tiny) disclaimer. This is a self help book. It is geared heavily toward women (obviously). Don’t let this deter you. Keep it in mind…preferably in your open mind.
Here’s a link to buy it on Amazon (expand the paperback section…there’s a bargain edition for $6) - I got my copy at Barnes and Noble...

Speaking of books, I'm reading another one and...
The Happiness Project - woot! Finally reading this one. Thus the liveblogging and thinking out loud about what I need to revolutionize in my life.
Okay. Books, not clothes. Read the books, don't...
I’ve got to keep trying different mantras, here.

“Death ends a life, not a relationship.”
– Mitch Albom
Side note:
I need to fucking stop thinking about clothes all the damn time.
I literally dream about them because I have work dreams like every night.
And the thought of wanting maroon jeans and mint green jeans is literally consuming my mind.
Sickness, I tell you. Sickness.
How do fashion designers or retail CEO’s do this all day every day without losing their sanity?
Oh, fuck me.
I was gonna order the belt from anthro.
And I should have known that the second it aired on PLL it would sell out.
But I procrastinated.
And now it’s gone.
I haven’t thought about wanting a piece of clothing this much since I saw the pansy trench, and there hasn’t been a moment that I’ve regretted buying that coat. Makes me feel like a movie star. Should have just...
Well, I was having an excellent birthday.
Before it came to a crashing, screeching halt. Ugh.
On the plus side, it’s apparently Phantom of the Opera week on the Ovation network. So I bid you adieu to let my favorite musical and go-to mood booster lull me to sleep. I may or may not end up sobbing when they finish singing All I Ask of You, and I may or may not be clutching the teddy bear Nicholas gave me with all my might.

321chickman asked: So your post about Ms Scarlet reminded me about the other day when I was trying to convince my mother to go to Aerie or SOMEWHERE to go get some bras that actually fit her and compliment her since her's are like a decade old, and I was reading her all the names off of the site, and she said, "I can't even remember the names of my kids. How do you expect me to remember the names of...
