Friday Five: AAPI Music that Will Enhance Your Playlist
When I first started to listening to Kpop in 2015, I was surprised for several reasons: I don’t know what I was expecting Kpop to sound like, but my first impression was to think: “Holy shit this music is better than anything I’ve been hearing on American radio.” I was TOTALLY part of the problem, […]
Friday 5: From Pelicans to Fudge Factories
Henry’s Pelican Rescue Club Did you guys know that the Greek island Mykonos has a pelican mascot names Petros? I didn’t either until I was watching a YouTube video about Mykonos and there was this big ass friendly bird hanging around a cafe/bakery-ish place and all of these people were treating him like he was […]
Friday 5: Memories & Music
Oh why hello there. Warning: this is going to be completely scattered. I mean, when is it not. But you know. Math Blasting Myself in the Foot OK OK OK, listen. It’s no big secret that I was a Big Spoiled B when I was a kid. Good thing that didn’t shape who I am […]
Friday is For Fomenting Facts
I honestly don’t think I ever even heard the word “foment” before until that former President, forever dingleberry Trump incited an insurrection and suddenly that was the word du jour on all the news channels. Anyway. Just wanted an excuse to use that. So here are some things, not necessarily five as we’re wont to […]
A Friday Five / Things Around My House mash up
Is it weird to have your own art hanging in your house? I don’t think so, I guess. Most of my art is birthed from inside jokes (like the Tony Stewart portrait I painted for Henry while he was at store and he didn’t even appreciate it or the Ham Sandwich AF painting after I […]
High-Five, It’s Friday
Gonna be real honest here (I dunno why I always preface shit with that, as though I’m typically FAKE NEWS’ing my way through these updates), this is most TGIF’ish I’ve felt in a long while. Here are five things plus some photos that have nothing to do with anything. Henrys Voice Crush I guess helping […]
Friday Five: Things I’ve Recently Liked
You know, because I’m such an influencer (*eyeroll*). CLOTHES I saw this precious blouse in an Instagram ad and you know how fly-by-night those companies can be! But I did some research and the fact that the clothing was moderately pricey combined with finding the personal IG accounts of the artist & designer who collaborated […]
The First Friday Five of 2021
In lieu of doing some phony, gratuitous recap of 2020 (I think we can agree that we all have the same feelings for it!) or making up some lame resolutions (last year at this time I predicted that 2020 was going to be the best year yet so imma just chuck that Nostradamus act off […]
Superstuffed Weekend
I mean, as super and stuffed as a weekend during a pandemic can possibly be, which isn’t really much but as I sit here on HINDSIGHT tuffet, it really does feel like a decent amount of stuff happened and you know me, always keeping the ol’ LOG updated for alibi accuracy. So come on, Mary. […]
A Feeble Attempt at a Friday Five
Today is the three year anniversary (that word seems not right) of Jonghyun’s death and I burst into tears thinking about that while I was doing the dishes this morning and so let’s do a Friday five to distract that blog-author, can we? Can we really? I’ve been off work all week but as usual, […]
Friday Five: Work Anniversary Edition
You guys. On Wednesday, those of us in the Pittsburgh office of the law firm who celebrated a five-year incremental anniversary this year (is that even how you would classify that??) were invited to attend a virtual recognition ceremony. I have had to type “recognition” approx. 27 times this week and have tried to squeeze […]
Friday Five From My Post-Thanksgiving Five Chins
My law firm always gives us the day after Thanksgiving off and I am post-Thanksgiving thankful for that. Maybe that means I actually put some effort into a Friday Five? We’ll see how far my effort will stretch. No promises! IN THE DARK Hello. Why have I not seen anyone talking about this show??? I […]
Friday Five: Fucking Old Foto Edition
Dear Internet Diary, I’m extremely unorganized when it comes to photos, which is awful when it comes to preservation but also fun when I randomly come across one when I’m digging in a drawer for a pen or safety pin or the glasses that I never wear. Here are some that I unearthed recently which […]
Whirls & Whorls of Whords on Whednesday
Feeling the need to shoot some bullets up in this piece today. Like pretty much everyone else in the world, I have been super antsy and bored these last several months. You know it’s bad when nothing in your YouTube feed interests you anymore, so I cried uncle and queued up the ol’ Netflix, with […]
Gettin’ Friday-Fivey With It
Hello, I have had this shell of a Friday Five on tap for like three weeks and then either quit caring on Friday or found something else to post or just blacked out entirely, but today we’re going to finally open the gates and release this hound from Friday Five hell. This Friday Five might […]
It’s Friday and Five is the Number
Do I really need an intro. Terrordome This damn ticket to a haunted house is 25 years old. I always keep it tucked into a frame of a picture on a wall so it’s kind of like permanent decor at this point, but I was looking at it the other day when I took it […]
Weekend Schmeekend: Things I Watched & Stuff Around My House & An Angry Girl Rant
I was off on Friday, so three cheers for long weekends, amirite? It was a pretty chill weekend. The weather was wonderful, so I got in a lot of great neighborhood walks while Henry stayed home and did chores, lololol. Anyway, let’s bullet our way through this, but first, here’s a picture of Drew in […]
Post Dental-Work Friday Five
I don’t have anything to say other than hello, welcome to Friday, and here are five subjects for you to read. ERIN & CHOOCH GO TO THE BAKERY Thursday morning, I dragged Chooch with me to the library because I had 4 books waiting to be picked up. On the way there, he said he […]
An Update From My Porch.
(Random pic of Peenlop) Remember in my last post when I mentioned that we were taking a daytrip to Maryland today to go to our favorite Korean market and stock up on makgeolli and soju? Well, I had been internally bugging out about it all week because I just want to be as COVID-compliant as […]
Friday Fives Will Save Our Lives
Lol – lofty statements. 1. Brookline Gets a Veggie Burger …and is this the best picture of it? Nope. But it’s the best you’re gonna get from me at least because I was in a big hurry to start gnawing at this beast and couldn’t really bother with angles and close ups, etc etc. This […]
