OMG Shoes [for ladies with bigger feet!]
[A quick note: apologies for my absence yesterday. Sunday I got horrifically sunburned, so I was already in a terrible mood, and then I took a drink from a glass that I didn't know Chris was using to store one of his contact lenses. Yup, I swallowed it. And he was blind for the better...
Guest Post Fun Times!
For all my regular readers: I’ve got a guest post up over at Punch Debt in the Face. I’m wearing my personal finance hat, talking about things you can do while you get out of debt. Read it! You know you want to! And for all the readers who are visiting from over there: HI!...
On Gender and Friendships: Getting Along With Other Girls
Are more of your friends guys or girls? Why? If you're an awkward-around-new-female-friends type like I am, how do you get past it?
Linkspiration: 8.4.2010
Upon Chris’s suggestion, I started using Delicious to manage my links. For awhile I Tumbl’d, and I’m still an avid starrer/sharer on Google Reader to bookmark the things I wanted to come back to, but this allows me to tag and sort a little better. So here’s some of my favorite lately. [source] Creative Melbourne...
Decor Inspiration: The Chroneos House
Last weekend I spent some time with Molly and Ben, two of my oldest friends and hands-down my favorite couple in the world.

How to Do More With the Clothes You Have [Instead of Buying More]
Know what you have. This sounds like an utterly idiotic suggestion, but here’s a tip: if I’d gone on a thrifting expedition before last summer, I might have come away with eleven different dresses that I wanted. Now, though, I might grab two, because even though I’ve pared down my wardrobe a lot since then,...
Cincinnati [and beyond!] Design, Fashion, and All Sorts of Win
I went to a couple of craft fairs in the past couple months, and I wanted to share some of the goodness with you. You know you love handmade goodies, right? [All the photos below are courtesy of the vendors.] SomeWeirdCrab makes amazing little plush toys and pillows, including some stuffed animal heads mounted like...
Sexual Harassment on the Street
[Sidenote: if I weren't so skeeved out by it, I might say that some of these dudes might make really good marketing copywriters - unique, succinct and to the point, though they'd probably not get the hint when someone hit "unsubscribe".]
Birth Order
[via Threadless] When I grew up, I was an only child. I was also adopted – my adoptive mum had a reproductive disorder and couldn’t get pregnant, so Dennis and Marsha were lucky to get me. I used to imagine them picking me out of a lineup at an orphanage, influenced no doubt by my...
