Casting Call

This is the picture we are going to attach to our cover letter for our Amazing Race application. Plannie and Krausey will be the best thing to happen to CBS ratings. "Krausey, the map is the other way around! NO! Not that way! THAT way!" Applications, including letters of recommendation are due February 18th. Better start making those calls!

Attention The Glove Fan Club Members!!!!

TODAY IS OUR PRINCE'S BIRTHDAY!!!!!! RAISE YOUR FORTIES FOR A TOAST!!!! MAC! THE PIZZA IS ON ME TONIGHT BUDDY!!!

My online astrologists tell me:

IF DECEMBER 12 IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: The desire for fame and fortune can light up your life in the year ahead. During the next four weeks you can make wise choices and may receive unexpected material help as beneficial influences pass your way. Positive changes are likely in April when you are dazzled by startling insights and briefly influenced by fascinating new people who present you with alternative viewpoints. Take advantage of the blessings showered upon you next August and don't pass up generous offers that fall in your lap. You may wish to live in the fast lane this year, at least for a short period of time, but in the end you will merely grow deeper roots.

We Wish you a Merry Martha

No! These are not shots from the December issue of Martha Stewart magazine! What you are feasting your eyes upon are homemade crafts from the inaugural crafts night at 918 Lorimer St. The unique, and obviously inventive projects included but were not limited to: orange clove natural air fresheners, clothes pin Rudolfs, glitter greetings cards and cotton ball snowmen. Plannie made one of her famous apple pies and I burned a spice cake. Even Brian joined in the festivities, making a little green and red chain out of construction paper and we let him hang it on the tree!

The night was filled with cheer and laughs but came to a screeching halt when we were thrown out of a gay office party underneath the JMZ for indulging a little too heavily in the cheese plate and warmed spinach dip.

Something to remember: this crew rolls deep and loves a good holiday party. If you've got a fruit cake and a batch of spiked egg nog, lock your door. Mac may bring his own forties, but he also comes equipped with one of the emptiest stomachs in East Williamsburg and he will prey upon your holiday spread.

Face Fashion

Look at this high fasion facial hair! Adam wears his beard like a blue ribbon for first place. Lucas looks like he's been shaving since he was seven and Pat looks like a lost boy going through puberty. Steal this look and make it your own!

Once Upon a Summer

God. Remember this? Today, when you're scurring from one warm place to another, I want you to think about the time when the warm place was outside and we were drinking iced coffees and refreshing brewskies. Think about the smell of lighter fluid and bug spray and the sound of ABBA blaring through portable speakers. Think about going SWIMMING!!! I'm crying right now.
