Happy New Year!
Originally, we were supposed to go to a friend’s party in the East Village, but after traveling all of last week, I decided I wanted to stay in and do nothing.
Ha! Did we forget that it’s impossible for me to be low key?
So now we have some friends coming over and of course, we’ve prepared a night of awesomeness!
To eat:
* Pizza bianca alla Romano (or as I understand it,...
10 Years of Meghan!
Holy hell, another 10 years are in the books and while I’d like to pretend I’m a little bit more worldier and wiser, I’m still pretty much the same old me.

* Got my first “real” boyfriend; proceeded to walk all over him but still forced him to do very nice things for me, like all first boyfriends are good for! Dumped him a few months later.

Food and exercise - 12/29/09
So, I gained six pounds in the month of December.
Not good.
And it’s directly related to my lack of exercise (I’ve averaged about two days a week at the gym) and an increase in cookie consumption (probably about five a day, minimum).
Waaaay back when I started this Tumblr, I was tracking my food and excercise and I think it really helped me jumpstart things.
Well, I’m...

DAYS 38.3 - 40.3
ninetydays:
This time of year is a tough one, and I’ve underestimated it once again. I feel like I am falling into a bad pattern of weekend weight gain. It’s been a couple of weeks now where I’ve had to lump 3-4 days into one post without accountability and I do not like that one bit. I can blame so many things this weekend, but seriously, what’s the point? I am responsible for what I put into...
This week on This American Life: #1 Party School
This year, The Princeton Review named Penn State the #1 Party School in America. It’s a rotating crown—last year it was University of Florida, before that it was West Virginia University. So we wondered: What is it like to be at the country’s top party school? This American Life producers spent a recent football weekend at Penn State to figure this out. There, we learned the definition...

in the midst of eating my eggs with broccoli & salsa this morning, there were 2 terrifying loud bangs at the door.
Is it broad daylight? yes.
Was I terrified? Yes.
Did I think it was the cops? possibly.
Why? Because I always assume the worst.
Anyway, I looked out my peep hole, and some man dressed in back walked away, by the time i got to my window to get a better...

I’m going to need everyone to send shiny, happy thoughts my way. My fate is already sealed but I figured the positive energy will at least help me feel better if things don’t go my way.

Paper cut.
I see your paper cut, and raise you a paper cut on your lip. Had that last week and it was 24 hours of pure torture.

Question for my NYC peeps

monkeychow:
I’ll be in NYC from the 26th (my birthday!) until the 30th this month. I’ll be staying with The Boy in our brand new LES apartment (the one I’m not so patiently waiting to move in to, once I get a job) and I’m so, so, so excited. I’m looking for restaurant suggestions. What are some of your favorite, fun, yummy restaurants?
P.S. I’m not a huge sushi fan.
