Jane Austen Fight Club

I occasionally find YouTube videos I like, and when this popped up on my News Feed on facebook, I was super excited.



Enjoy!

Sunday Brunch

Today, my friend Carol and I went to Pershing Square for brunch. It's a beautiful restaurant right across the street from Grand Central Station. It was bigger than what I expected it to be. I imagined it would be a small cafe, but there was a rather large dining room as you walked toward the back of the restaurant. They also had a beautiful bar, called Buzz Bar, which I would definitely want to check out in the future. I had a delicious brunch of whole wheat belgian waffles, complete with strawberries. Surprisingly, it wasn't that heavy as I sometimes find waffles to be. The syrup left something to be desired though...definitely cheap, Log Cabinesque quality. All in all, though, a lovely meal.

I've been feeling a little down in the dumps in recent days with many of my friends getting married soon, or in the process of planning their weddings. Yes, I am completely and utterly happy for each and everyone of them. It's just that with all of this wedding and marriage talk, I feel inadequate. The wedding train is leaving the station, and here I am running in vain to catch it. I know that I shouldn't feel this way, but it's hard to keep these thoughts from coming into my mind as my bride friends discuss wedding dresses, honeymoons, and floral arrangements. ALSO. Hot damn, it's expensive to participate in a wedding. Seriously, I am in favor of a single girls' registry as this point.

A quick post.

I saw this on the Today Show last week and thought they were simply adorable. (Picture courtesy of http://shop.hoodiebuddie.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=W103). This would be so cute to wear to and from the gym! Check out www.hoodiebuddie.com to look at more cute and comfy hoodies!

New Goal

I think I need to give myself a project. I want to use a blog, but I have been neglecting it for many many weeks now.

My new goal is to blog AT LEAST twice a week. And not just some silly, little, mindless post. Something with some substance in it.

At this point, I'm a little shnockered by my pinot grigio, so a real post will be up tomorrow, most likely exploring my latest adventures with landlords in New York City or my dining experience at Grand Central Station.

Things That Piss Me Off

...when you have continually asked friends to come visit NYC and they say they're so so busy. Then, you just happen to see an update on facebook/twitter/whatever that alludes to the fact that they DID in fact come to the city. However, they just didn't bother to tell you.

Way to feel rejected. Le sigh.
