A nerdy little photo shoot.

Hairdresser at Tiffany’s. For about a year I’ve wanted to update Hairdresser on Fire. I have had this vision of black and white photos in the header and having really dramatic lighting. I don’t know what took so long, but we finally shot a bunch of images for it on Monday night. It will probably [...]

Jake’s Birthday Dinner.

Last week, right before I left for London, it was Jake’s birthday! It was also his last week at work (he started at a new firm this week!), and his cousins came into town. So, with all the business, we didn’t do any big birthday celebrating, but instead a nice quiet little dinner with just [...]

Storm King

Jake and I had a great weekend. Great visits with Pip, a 70s themed costume party in the West Village with friends, filming 4 tutorials for hairdresser on fire and an early birthday dinner for Jake. His big birthday is on Tuesday, and since I don’t get home from work until about 9 on Tuesdays, [...]

The scariest thing in the world

Because of street cleaning, Jake and I have to move the car most mornings so that we don’t get a ticket while we’re at work when the sweepers come by. In order to move the car as quickly as possible, we have to do this terrible deed at 5:30 in the morning. It’s a small [...]

thanks y’all.

I’m sure we’ll (Piper) adjust quickly. The good news is that they are caring for her like they should, and she still has the same therapists and teachers as before. Hooray. I’ve been feeling just so bummed about it the last few days, and writing it all down helps. The weather is still yoo-mid here! It [...]

My current favorites.

TV Shows. Big Brother. All though Big Brother is a normal favorite, not just a current. (I want to talk about this in its own post.) Breaking Bad Radio Shows. This American Life. I download and listen to the archives every day on the subway or when I run. The stories are so interesting and [...]

Jake’s man trip

Here are a few pictures from Jake’s recent Man Trip with his friend Mike. The pictures are gorgeous and they make me regret ever letting Jake go anywhere cool without me. I get jeal’. This could be a postcard. I need to go to this place, it looks so pretty! They flew in Jake’s dad’s [...]

Piper over the weekend.

This pic isn’t of Pip, but it’s on the drive up to see the Pip. I drove up on Father’s day to better serve my husband. On Father’s day, I basically sat back and watched. I didn’t really hold Piper Jane except for when she’d curiously leave Jake for a few minutes and flit over [...]

Sarah’s Rooftop Bridal Shower.

Sarah’s wedding is in just a few weeks! It seems like she has been engaged for an eternity, especially since I’ve been anticipating all these fun parties and events for basically the entire year and a half. So, it’s all happening now! Dress fittings, hair trials, bridal showers..in two weeks is the bachelorette party and [...]

During Jake’s man trip.

Next month, Jake’s best friend is moving to Italy. Jake is bummed because they hang out a lot, and because his bud is a great guy. So I’m bummed too. When I found out he was moving, I suggested they do a fun man weekend trip. I feel like I get to do that stuff [...]
