So after sharing a few of my dad's holiday quips on Twitter, someone suggested I turn them into an Xtra Normal video.  DONE AND DONE.  Great idea, Twitter friend!  My dad is the king of the inadvertent funny, which is great, except that when you indicate that you find what he says to be amusing, he takes it too far and tries to carry on the joke far too long.  So you can only quietly chuckle so

The Year of Yes had a soundtrack.  Obviously.  Some of these are pretty obvs.  Some aren't.  It was also the year of waking up to a receipt for drunken iTunes purchases. Sia- Clap Your Hands Danger- Electric Six Um, yeah.  This video is real weird. Flo Rida- Good Feeling Duh. Nazareth- Hair of the Dog Zero 7- In The Waiting Line M83- Midnight City Nicki Minaj feat.

2011 has been hard y'all.   In ways that it is not my right to share here (both personal and in a career sense).   In ways that were shockingly adult, which having already entered my 30s, it shouldn't come as a surprise to me that I might have actual adult problems.  But in many ways, my life and career had previously been in stages that were a preamble to really doing something, and making

Scene:  Dining at casual restaurant, listening to HORRIFIC Christmas tunes. Christina Aguilera's "Home for Christmas" is blaring. Me:  They really should have stopped allowing people to write new Christmas songs once Mariah Carey did "All I Want For Christmas is You," for it cannot be topped. Him:  It was really her peak.

Whatever.  I've been gone!  But I'm going to try to be back.  WITH A VENGEANCE!  Or at least like, 2 posts a week.  That's a vengeance right?  I don't know.  But that's my goal for now. But in the meantime, since I haven't the energy to blog, I've spent my hours becoming a Facebook comedian of sorts, and

Here's the links to the products mentioned in my vlog, along with how long they last.  Lest you think I'm totally nuts, I only have to buy most of this stuff twice a year, and its scattered out so I probably buy 1 or 2 products a month. MD Forte Level III Cleanser- I always buy this at SkinStore because they almost always have a 20% off coupon code.   Chantecaille Rice and Geranium Foaming

Thanks to the glory of the iPhone, these were made possible.  Don't say I don't have a sense of humor about myself. Expressive much? And really, this is the one that kind of sums up why my facial expressions get me in trouble at work: The least expressive, and yet?  The Most Expressive.

So my friend K and I are pretty ridiculous.  But thankfully, in many of the same ways.  I am, to be sure, MORE ridiculous, but that is to be expected.  Nonetheless, it's nice to find a friend that shares your bizarre sense of humor. On Wednesday, K and I were wondering about Anthropologie, when quite suddenly K became quite hurried.  You see, she had to get home.  Because there was a large

My Aunt-in-Law and Grandma-in-Law gifted me a Boden gift card for my recent birthday, and one of the items I selected (mostly for the low price and its work appropriateness- just add jacket for instant suit!) is a real hit.  And by real hit I mean, wear it in an elevator with 6 men and prepare to have them all make a remark on it (yes that happened).  And it's only $39! I find Boden to run a

Backstory:  I recently declared that for Karla's upcoming birthday I was going to coordinate a butterfly release in her home as she loves butterflies so. Me:  I CANNOT get a cat.  I wouldn't mind a cat per se, but I'm highly allergic.  A cat is probably the only pet I could manage not to accidentally kill.  Too bad they want to kill me. K:  You know what?  You do a butterfly release in my house,

I just got back from the gym, where I managed to do Tabata on ONE AND A HALF HOURS OF SLEEP because I cannot sleep because it is SO FUCKING HOT ALL THE TIME OMG.  Anyway, that feat of strength aside, I managed to still be a complete moron at the gym tonight. You see, I always make sure I go to the bathroom right before class starts, lest I miss one of the many hideous Tabata cycles for potty time

Lucky me, my MIL got me a Sephora gift card for my birthday.  And since I'm on a mission to try and reject every mascara known to man, I decided to pick up Benefit's newest mascara, They're Real!  Best mascara ever!  Go buy it, now!

If you follow me on Twitter, you probably are already aware that this past weekend, I, along with my incredibly fun friend Jeremy, went to see a psychic.  Yeah, I know.  And even worse, I'm kind of a believer now.  I get that it sounds a wee bit TOTALLY CRAZY, but man, did that lady know some shit about me.  And I promise you, in true skeptic fashion, I gave up nothing about myself.  Nor did

I'm gonna just change this blog to be called Scenes From, because damn, people are interesting!  I've made it my personal goal to just start chatting up peeps wherever I go, because let me tell you, it's a real treat!  I inherited this gene from my father, who has never gone anywhere in his life without making a friend.  Much to my mother's chagrin, my dad talks to anyone and everyone, which can

On Saturday, I attended a pub crawl to celebrate a friend's birthday.  Nothing of consequence, but I was 1) the only girl and 2) I believe the only heterosexual in attendance.  To say I had a fun time was an understatement, However, it started around 2 pm, so by 10:30, I was BEYOND DONE.  Which is how I found myself sitting on a curb alone outside of a bar, waiting on a cab. From the moment the

I picked up this top in white today at J. Crew, and now I see it online and am obviously desirous of ALL OF THE COLORS!  It's the perfect weight to layer with a tank or camisole and it's incredibly flattering.  J. Crew is (kinda?  Sorta?  Maybe?) back in my heart! Fits generously (I got a size small, but I also fit in the XS, but wanted it looser.)

Well, the bad news is that I am still a terrible blogger.  The good news it that I've been spending a large chunk of time with two of the most ridiculous people on Earth- one of my best friends from college and his boyfriend, who are good for a non-stop stream of laughs.

People have sent me tons of emails regarding the Tabata class I started attending back in January, and I've been meaning to address them for months.  Well, today is that day dear readers! For those of you who aren't familiar with the Tabata protocol, it's an interval training exercise which consists of 20 second intervals of high intensity exercise, followed by 10 seconds of rest.  You do 8 sets

The second longest relationship I've ever been in is with my eyebrow lady.  We're going on six years together, and every year I love her more.  Not only is she a whiz at waxing, she is the most intentionally AND unintentionally hilarious person I know.  I would love to just spend my day following her around, watching her interact with people.  She is the queen of the non-sequitir, and I do

I’ve had kind of a shitty week. Vacation is over. I got sick on my vacation, which is its own shitty concept. Then I actually had to endure being sick. Things have been off all week at work. And I just generally haven’t felt like myself lately. This is especially sucky coming off of a period of a few weeks where I felt really good about a lot of things and was generally pretty happy.

Today, for some unknown reason, there has been a relentless spamming of my inbox with emails from my law school alma mater asking me to give them money.  The program is called "Why I Give" and it, to put it bluntly and shorty, annoys the shit out of me.  In the past, when I receive mail solicitations for this program, I have written all manner of snarky messages on the postcards.  Obviously,

As such, you can imagine my delight when this individual took

with a dream and my cardigan... Okay not really, although I DO always travel with a cardigan.   Anyway, I am going to LA! My fabulous friend Karla read yesterday's post and immediately suggested we take a vacay together.  And going on a vacation with a girlfriend is another thing I've been wanting to do.  (Solo trip is still happening!)And so it is- we are going the last weekend in April,

In the past, I've made all manner of resolutions about travel and visiting friends and whatnot.  When I do this, I usually go through periods where I make lots of progress on my social goals, only to burn out and do a total anti-social regression.  Right now, I'm in the middle of a major social binge, and am trying to make a sustained effort to make more time to see friends I've periodically

Sorry, my lack of motivation got the best of me yet again.  But I'm already mentally addressing your post suggestions.  I promise to address them- one specifically will be addressed with a giveaway soon! Anyway, before I get back to REAL content, I'm going to do this week's exercise post so that I don't get too far behind in that regard. Sunday- Pure Barre Monday- Tabata + 15 minute abs Tuesday-

First of all, thanks for the input below.  Keep the questions coming! Anyway, week 4. So my foot was back in action fucking up my week.  It really didn't get better until yesterday, when it made some sort of giant leap towards recovery.  I'm not sure why, as Monday was possibly the WORST foot day since the incident.  But there you go. So, last week. Monday- I did Tabata.  I just took 4 Advil and

So, this week was a little complicated in my exercise world: So that sucked.  Me + new shoes with leather soles + freshly waxed floors at work = DISASTER.  My ankle/foot was xrayed and while there was no break, it was sprained which everyone keeps telling me is SO MUCH WORSE THAN A BREAK.  Okay, I don't really agree, but it does hurt and it will take a while to fully heal.  It's been somewhat

Monday- 15 minute abs class and Tabata.  I'm amazed at how much my endurance has improved since the first class.  Still love this workout!  A lot of people have asked about Tabata- its a class that is divided up into intervals.  For each exercise, you do 8 20 second intervals that are separated with 10 seconds of rest.  It's tough.  Some interval examples- Burpees (hate that word!), jumping jacks

YES, a mere 7 months after moving in, I'm finally posting some photos.  After all, it took 7 months for us to hire a professional to come clean the place.  This was only reasonable.  I really like the place, although I have to say in photos it looks really plain.  I don't feel that way at all, but I guess that's just how white walls come across in poorly taken pictures.  Anyway, here goes....

But I'm posting it anyway, for my own personal record-keeping.   I'm going to try and keep track at the end of the week what I've been doing fitness wise so in a few months when I've (hopefully) kept this up, I can have some sort of record of what I've been doing. SO. Monday-or, the Day Before The Ice Came.  I went to Tabata and also took a 15 minute abs class at Equinox.  This time I was smart

First of all, thanks for the OVERWHELMING positive responses to my last post.  I only had one negative reply, and it was negative in a way that I didn't really see coming.  I'm still pretty confused by it to be honest-both as it related to the subject matter at hand, and by the insinuation that I only allow comments from my Yes Men.  I basically allow all comments, so long as they aren't

So I had all these grand visions about my new year being all awesome and shiz. And then I got all sick and whiny for oh, a good nine days. I've been too sick to eat, to sick to cook, too sick to work out, too sick to work. I finally started to feel not like shit finally on Thursday, just in time for my visit to Austin to see Regan and Kristin. This was fabulous, but did nothing towards

Since falling ill last Wednesday, a night I spent crying and unable to sleep despite ingesting a heavy cocktail of Nyquil and Nighttime pain aids, I've endured quite a world of hurt.  Due to present, and hopefully short lived, short staffing at work, I had to go into the office on Thursday.  At about 9:30, I called my supervisor and told her that it really wasn't feasible for me to be at work any

No.  This isn't porn. The other day, I was listening to NPR on my way to work, as I'm wont to do, and there was a discussion on Xtra Normal movie makers.  I was already familiar with Xtra Normal, thanks to this work of greatness about the practice of law.  (Go watch, I'll wait). A few days later, it occurred to me- this is the perfect machine for my Scenes From a Marriage series, so I whipped

This year, I'd like to take more pictures of my life.  Last year, basically the only time I busted out the camera was when we were on vacation.  Which is kind of lame.  And if I want to justify that new camera I want, I better to get to photo snappin'.  I've been getting my feet wet with the Instagram app, and I'm loving it.  It really has forced me to look at the things around me a little

I spend a lot of time, publicly AND privately, berating myself for spending too much money.  This overspending really only takes one form:  clothing and shoes.  My spending habits are well under control in other regards.  So my big focus in 2011 will (again) be to stop impulse buying the shit out of everything. That being said, there are some things I PLAN on buying in 2011.  As follows: -  New

Copied from all over the damn internet, especially Sundry.  2009 here. 1. What did you do in 2010 that you’d never done before? I stuck around at a job long enough to actually get promoted. Moved into a new place that actually feels like an adult home. I am more at peace with my relationship with my parents, after a few ugly conversations which involved me telling my truth about a few things.

Last Saturday, in an act of lazy desperation, I took, or shall I say attempted to take, my dry cleaning to the fancy pants cleaners closest to my apartment.  In retrospect, I should have had the foresight to see how bad of an idea this was, as I live in a kind of fancy pants building, immediatey adjacent to fancy hotels and an office building full of super professional lawyer/finance types who

My husband works.  A lot.   He comes home, on average, at 10 pm.   He works every Saturday.  He works every Sunday. My husband also makes a lot of money. My husband's job affords me a lifestyle that my own job would never afford me.   My husband also probably has a job I couldn't land, and makes a salary I may never earn. My husband is also a good man. My husband came home tonight at about 9:45,

Hey, everyone, I'm sure you remember that old ho bag Vanessa, always trying to be stealing my man. Yeah?  Well, I was looking around on Dooce the other day, as I am wont to do, oh once every few months.   AND LOOK WHO ELSE HAS HERSELF A VANESSA! (Hint, you can't see her face, but she's in the chair) Watch out, Heather.  Someone is after Jon. So anyway, in spite of the title this post is

As you may recall, earlier this year Mr. A and decided no Xmas gifts to each other.  Which means I won't be getting ANY STUFF FROM WAX MAN AT ALL.  Anyway, lucky for me, we both have very generous parents, so I'm sure I'll still have a pretty merry holiday.  But I usually save Christmas for the few big things I want but am unwilling to buy myself and ask Ole Waxy to purchase.  Here's to 2011!

Slynnro:  Yes, chocolate diamonds.  Are you going to get me some of those for Christmas?  (I was about to put a disclaimer here about PLEASE NEVER BUY ME CHOCOLATE DIAMONDS, but uh, some of that stuff is actually kind of pretty.  But some most of it isn't.)

So, every since Kristin sent me a link to the site, I've been obsessed with Damn You Auto Correct.  It's such a brilliant idea, but I can't help but wonder WHY DID I NOT THINK OF THIS?  Regardless, I read it constantly, but in a matter of two days I've already become suspicious of people creating Auto Correct errors, as some of them are so ridiculous, and excessively involving of the words dildos

First of all, let me say thanks for the complimentary things left in the comments of yesterday's post.  Even though none of you were able to correctly identify that One Thing at which I will become a masterful expert at, my success surpassing all those who came before me at that one thing, I will forgive you all because you were so nice. The running theme of the comments seems to be that I am 1)

I'm not great at anything. Don't feel bad for me though.  The situation isn't as dire as it sounds.   Lemme explain. Lately, and by lately, I really mean for the past year or so, I've been suffering from some sort of undefined angst about my life.  To some degree, I've documented this phenomenon here, with my November Improve Yourself Month, and my Outside of the Box project, and my haircolor (

Part of this post really happened.  You decide where the embellishment begins. Scene:  Slynnro is shopping at her local CVS, picking up a few toiletries. CVS PA:  Hey ladies!  Let's face it.  Those age spots are making you look old.  It's time to update your skin care routine now. Slynnro:  Hey CVS PA, bite me.

Last Monday, I just happened to be at home at 4 pm due to an out-of-control-tum-trubs issue (Aside:  Did you know that I wake up at least once a month in the middle of the night puking for at least 3 or 4 hours and have ever since I started taking my current, largely successful tum trubs care medicine regime?)  (Did you also know that I have a HUGE fear of calling in sick?  Like that someone from

This weekend, we traveled to Austin to see my No. 25 No. 21 Baylor Bears take on Mr. A's (unranked) Texas Longhorns.  My kind in-laws purchased tickets for the four of us and went spent the evening in Austin with the fam. And yes, despite whatever Longhorn fan-dom ramblings you may have read on this blog, you read that correctly.  Though I am a graduate of The University of Texas School of Law,

This + This, This and This (other fabric I can't find the link to) = CHEAP FREAKIN' ART: Just like my friend Kate posted today, I've made the world's simplest home decor.  I spent, oh, MONTHS thinking about fabric selections.  And uh, ordered the first fabric I liked.   But anyway, this is a simple, easy CHEAP way to dress up your place!  Enjoy!

Via Amber and Ricochet, this is some (in my opinion crappy) test designed to see if you are a member of the new elite.  I uh, am not according to this test.  I guess I can't escape my past, dammit!  Anyway, I do think its a crappy quiz, but there are some good WT anecdotes of mine towards the end.  Enjoy. 1.

I've been trying unsuccessfully to take a picture of my hair since, oh Sunday.  Unfortunately, my iPhone isn't cutting it and the batteries on the good camera are dead and after a rare 11 hour work day for me, I didn't much feel like going to buy some new ones this evening.  And since my husband has been at work non-stop since oh, last month, there hasn't really been anyone to take some good

This weekend I did some home decor shopping (a post with update apartment pictures will be forthcoming as soon as I get this joint cleaned up).  As I said before, getting some home decor balls and making some decisions and purchases is one of my continuing personal challenges.  On Friday, Mr. A and I had our traditional post Happy Hour mexican food dinner, and as we often seem to do, we found

Mossimo Black Kat Faux Suede Booties, $29.99 I tried these on at Target today, but didn't buy them because I'm on BUDGET RESTRICTIONS right now.  But if I weren't, I totally would have purchased. They look WAY more expensive than they are and will be perfect with tights and dresses.

I wrote about that whole comfort zone thing? So I've been thinking about your suggestions, and what I want to do.  So here goes.  These are my plans: 1)  Host a dinner party.  I will probably start small and host a Champagne Thursday with MM and Kate.  But its  a start.  And I'm going to make a Sandra Lee inspired tablescape, as promised.  At some point, Mr. A and I need to have a party/

Since I announced my vacation plans, and upon my return, I've gotten an onslaught of emails asking me about my experience with both the hotel and the island.  So my vacation in review.... For me, a huge part of my vacation experience is the experience of staying in a fancy hotel.  I sort of revel in all of the little niceties that come along with five star resorts- the excellent service, that the

Y'all.  I want like EVERYTHING from Forever 21 right now.  I know, its a little surprising, but like there's good stuff.  And the Wax Man is all "SPEND LESS!"  And I'm all "I DON'T WANNA!"  Except that maybe I do, because good cheap stuff?  Is where it's at!

If you're playing along at home, you might have noticed a tendency to start things, and uh. . . not finish around here.  I've tracked my spending, I've tracked what I wore, I've tracked what I ate, I came up with all kinds of weekly post ideas and well, I ain't doing any of that stuff right now. In that same spirit, a while back, I announced my intention to start on a pre-vacation low carb, high
