Friday Frivolous Fives
This week was one of the slowest weeks I’ve experienced in forever. I kept thinking it was the next day, almost every day. Maybe it’s because I went into the office twice, I dunno, but yesterday in the office felt like the longest work day since before the pandemic. Megan said it was because we […]
Friday 5: What a thrill.
It’s Friday. I haven’t done a “5” in a while. Here’s an amusement park palate-cleanser: Troop Beverly Hills, what a thrill. After all of my HENRY HAS NEVER SEEN TROOP BEVERLY HILLS / HENRY IS NOW WATCHING TROOP BEVERLY HILLS / HENRY THOUGHT TROOP BEVERLY HILLS WAS ‘NOT BAD’ Internet postings a few weeks ago, […]
A Life Recap on Friday: Satanic circles, Slaps, Simons, etc.
I don’t know* if I have five things for today and I don’t feel like counting, so I’m using bulletpoints and you can’t stop me. *(or, as I word nearly every note I leave at work: IT IS UNCLEAR TO ME….) Have I mentioned that Henry was fixing some vent cover issue that Janna was […]
A Snowy Saturday in March 2022
This was supposed to be a Friday Five but my blog broke and wouldn’t allow me to upload the pictures I wanted to add so I had to wait for my IT Team (see also: Henry) to investigate and troubleshoot only to concede and call WordPress or whoever, I dunno who he called, but when […]
Plastic Caskets, Ding Dong Ditch, 50 Cent Bunnies, & More!
I took the day off today. I have a dentist appointment late this afternoon and was originally just going to ask to leave early for it, but then my internal Mental Health spokesperson was like, “Yo, you need a day off. Take the whole day.” So I did. Before I fucking blow a gasket. I […]
Friday Five: Feisty Females
I dunno why, but I hate the word “female,” yet here we are, being hypocritical for the sake of alliteration. What is my life. In today’s dumb Friday Five edition, I want to share some of my current fave Kpop girl groups that have been helping me reach my morning goal of 6,000 steps before […]
Trivial Tuesday Things
I used to talk on the phone with friends all the time and now no one calls each other and if they do, we’re put in panic mode because a PHONE CALL is never good. I hate that. And like right now I have all of this nervous WWIII????? energy and back in the day, […]
Friday Five: Fab 80s Fitness Edition
Hi hello hey ho ho ho! I thought that maybe it could be fun to a round-up of some of my favorite 80s walking workouts for today’s FRIDAY FIVE. Mostly because three of my go-to YouTube fitness channels uploaded one in the last two weeks, totally randomly. And I don’t know about you but I […]
An Icy Friday Five
Hello from an ice-encrusted Pittsburgh. Due to winter sucking, Henry’s job actually let everyone stay home today and Chooch got to do school remotely (COVID ruined snow days lol). Anyway, as you can imagine this has not been contributing to a calm and balanced work environment for me. It’s bad enough I have to spend […]
Thursday Evening Positivity
Hello from Valentine Hell! Just kidding, I love our greeting card business! I’m sitting here waiting for my cue to help with packaging etc and I am feeling v. restless so I figured, hey I will hop onto the Blog and say hello to my…fans. Lolololol. I feel like I have been a big downer […]
5 Things I Found In the Attic
For this installment of Friday Five, here are five things I found in the attic several weekends ago when we were cleaning it out only to never return because it has been too fucking cold. A Whole Bunch of Australian Boarding Passes, etc. First of all? Literally do not remember my flights being on Air […]
Henry’s Five Favorite Books of 2021
Omg for this edition of Friday Fives, Henry is visiting to tell us about his fave reads of the year! Which* means he will tell me a botched title and then I will try to coax some descriptive words from him while he’s cooking shit for tomorrow’s Christmas dinner and then I’ll do all the […]
Trainwreck of Thoughts on This Thursday
Annyeong. I have been so scattered lately. Like, I’m running on nervous energy and Kombucha, mostly. Every time I sit down to one thing, I’m on to something else within minutes. I can’t tell if this is adult ADD or a manic bipolar upswing or just, well, Erin being Erin. So today we’re free-forming it […]
Friday Fives Revived
Hi, Friday Fives. It’s been awhile! Did you miss me? I missed you. Let’s pretend like I never forgot to recount five things on a Friday and just, I dunno, base-jump right on in. Here are five rando things from the past week-ish, off the top of my fried brain. Like it or don’t like […]
Thanksgiving Eve 2021 Bullet Points
Yo yo yo. I’m feeling bullet-y today. Let’s do this thing. I’ll even sweeten the pot with some CAT PICS. My Squirrel-whispering (or, “whistling” as it were) ability is getting even more skilled. Over the weekend, one of my Buddies was in the neighbor’s yard (the one who hates squirrels!) so I whistled for him […]
Friday Five: Halloween Workout Edition!
The weather in Pittsburgh this week has been chilly & rainy. Now, I’m no sissy when it comes to walking in the rain, but sometimes I do prefer getting my steps in without fucking around with an umbrella. Thank god for walking workouts on YouTube, amirite? In honor of Halloween, I thought it would be […]
Friday! Woo! High FIVE!
There is nothing quite like a Friday in October to get the butterflies in my belly all boisterous. I love this month so much! I am going to write about FIVE THINGS today that have me in a GOOD MOOD, which means I can’t write about the ongoing DOMESTIC DRAMA on the other side of […]
A Blah-y Friday Five
Hello. Here is a very half-hearted Friday Five. I have had a pretty down week. THE RACCOON There was a raccoon on our porch two nights ago, helping himself to the squirrel food in the bistro. It was so exciting! I screamed about how I had never seen a raccoon that up-close before, and Henry […]
Autumnal Things I’m Looking Foward To
I know it’s only September 1st and still very summer (although today it’s rainy and with just enough chill in the air that I can comfortably wear SWEATPANTS, yessir thank you very much) but I am already getting the tickley sensation in my belly thinking about upcoming FALL stuff. I’m not a super holistic person […]
Friday 5s are still alive
Yeah, I’ve got very little in me right now so let’s see if I can actually dredge up five whole things from the swamp that is my mind. 1. Hubcap Heaven I saw this picture of Clarissa Explains It All on Instagram the other day and cracked up because for some reason back when this […]
