The Best Birthday
This past Thursday, I turned 30, and I have to say it was the best birthday I’ve had. By far. From my coworkers decorating my cube and taking me to lunch to the perfect mix made for me by my partner in crime, I was constantly reminded all day that I am pretty much surrounded at all times by awesome people. I’m pretty goddamn lucky.
I threw myself a real birthday party for the first...
What Your 16-Hour Workday Says About You!

Nice to meet you, 2011
Since I moved to New York, I’ve ignored New Year’s Eve more often than not, because it’s pretty rare that there’s something going on that doesn’t involve interacting with jackasses in any way. You pretty much cannot go anywhere in Manhattan or to any bar in any borough on December 31st without finding yourself in the midst of a jackass convention, in fact. So I often...
So long, and thanks for all the dripping spider...
