MMMMmmm cupcakes

Tom and I have been working together for the past few weeks and we’re finally ready to show off our creation. Behold the adorableness of Sugar Fiends! This American Apparel cranberry vneck tshirt features an adorable zombie cupcake, complete with brain frosting and a drooling desire for braaaaainnns. The little zombie hungrily stares at your [...]

On relationships

Two pieces of writing I’ve enjoyed lately: From Vanessa: How to attract a real loser There’s plenty of advice out there about what to do to attract a great guy, but sometimes it’s easier to understand what not to do. Therefore, from a wealth of personal experience–my own and that of some other battle-scarred ladies–I’ll [...]

Dream

I’m looking at pig-shaped jewelry in a shop in Monterey when I realize that it’s the end of the semester and I need to take my finals. Somehow I magically appear back on campus in time, but there are no more seats in the room so I sit outside on the cement. I try to [...]

Women freak out about being single, or finding the perfect lingerie for their imperfect bodies. Men flail around helplessly trying to figure out which Hollywood fantasy to mimic (dinner out, or a home cooked meal, or [...]

The most amazing Christmas hat

This hat is simply fantastic. I found it on Kevin Rose’s head in the latest episode of Diggnation. Though I wrote to them begging for the hat, chances are good they’ll never read it. (I failed to add the obligatory scantily clad photo of myself). Based on my awesome photoshop skillz, I think I’d look [...]

Colored bracelets

Whew! Adobe max was great. I met a few fantastic people, including my east coast self, Ed Finkler. Terry, though flattering, is quite delusional as I am not anywhere as badass as Ed. Turns out that Grant Skinner (hotshot flash dude,) looks just like Scott Blonde from the back/side. I almost died when he turned [...]
