Whenever my roommate has sex while I’m home, I can’t help thinking — this is at least 75% to impress me. We have thin walls and she has a shaky loft, and both her and her boyfriend are theater people (read: LOUD NOISES).
(It’s hard to explain why I think she’s trying to impress me. Superficially, she just lost a bunch of weight over the summer and is dating this...

movie reviews
hi, girls. i’ve missed you doing a nine hour shift at work today, but tonight i will be seeing one of two movies and i hope to write a lovely review for you all once i return. i’m thinking we should do that for movies and music (rockuboff, that’s you, obv) in addition to the books we’ve been reading. i love recommendations, don’t you?
another month in my apartment
i don’t think that one month goes by without me getting into a fight w/ the lady at the management company of my apartment! i have run out of checks and am too lazy to reorder them so i started paying my rent in cash…no big deal. except the woman can’t count, so that was a fight on more than one occasion. last month, she got mad b/c i gave my landlord my rent and cut in front of...
The Pioneer Woman! →
As a gift of good faith, and an introduction to what I like (because aren’t we only what we like, who our friends are?) I give to you, Ree.

whew…what a week. share your weekly recap in the comments. i am hoping many of yours faired far better than mine.
The TV character you'd date in real life →
so i guess i should also let this serve as an introduction - i’m simone, i’m 23 and i’m living in nyc. with all the talk of tumblr crushes, i thought talk of fictional characters might also be fun. here’s my list. 1. jim halpert, the office (us version). is this a cliche choice? probably, but i so enjoy tall men. and men that hold the possibilty for snark. snark is key....
“Those of us who choose not to settle in hopes of finding a soul mate later are...”
– Oh, that’s what I wanted to hear. Marry Him Well, that certainly was a downer of a read. TGIF, ladies. (via sarahlane) (via onemoretimewithfeeling) I think this is AWFUL and un-true. The kinds of men who bullshit around until they are older (ie, George Clooney) will ALWAYS marry someone younger. I...
Woudn't it be funny if.....
The Tumblr beefcakes had a running list of tumblr crushes……hehehehe.
I just had chocolate for breakfast!
Mmm I just finished a delicious bowl of Special K with Chocolate and woah, it was amazing! Real dark chocolate?! In my bowl of cereal?! I know it’s just cereal…but I’m kind of a chocoholic…and if I can start my day off with chocolate and not feel guilty, then that’s amazing! I hope all you ladies out there eat breakfast since it is the most important meal of the day...
M.A.S.H
I’m married to John Krasinski, I drive a maroon Cayenne, we have 4 kids, live ina house in Chicago and I’m an interior designer. Sounds good. *Ah middle school. We used to do these games inside our desks so the boys wouldn’t know who we picked. I of course always got the one stinker in the group.

Meet Up! Beauty Bar! Thoughts! Info!
Hey gals, I just got off the phone with some dude at the Beauty Bar. Basically. here’s the deal. If we can get 40+ people then we get a private back room until 11. This costs $100 an hour. If we come early then it shouldn’t be crowded and we wouldn’t actually have to reserve space. I was thinking we should do it early, around 8. It will be a cool venue and we’d be able to...

So there's this girl...
…who constantly calls, texts, act inappropriately towards my boyfriend. This has been going on for two years. She knows who I am and that I have been seriously dating him since we were 17 (a high school sweetheart is something I never thought I would have). He has repeatedly reminded her that he is not available, actually introduced me to her as his girlfriend, as well as gotten into...
PR
I just had a great half-hour phone interview with a man who is hiring a PR assistant within the music industry. I feel that the interview went very well, and I’ll be finding out tomorrow if I make it to stage 2. It definitely sounds like a fun and challenging job that will provide me with great PR experience within the industry. One thing though. I’ve never really done much PR, but...

Shopping!!!
On the heels of Mascarah’s post about HauteLook, I thought I’d give everyone the chance to sign up for Gilt Groupe. It’s an AMAZING site, very similar to HauteLook, but to sign up you have to be invited by a member. They do ridiculous weekly sample sales on Luxury Brands, going on right now is Notte by Marchesa (their ready-to-wear line), but they’ve had everyone from...
I'm Not a Feminist, But.... →
A great editorial in The Daily Princetonian called “How to be a feminist without anyone knowing it” — i.e., for women afraid to wear the label “Feminist” because of its connotations but still believe in the rights and equalities of women. I proudly identify as a feminist, but a lot of women are uncomfortable with the label for their own reasons. Discuss!
POPSTROLOGY!!!!
It’s the #1 song on the day I was born. This is all you need to know about me and all I need to know about you! (I love popstrology so much I made a mix of all my friends’ songs and distributed. They were thunderstruck by how eerily accurate the songs are!) Mine is “Endless Love” by Lionel Ritchie and Diana Ross. I hate the song, but I’ve had to accept how true it...
Hello, Group.
Hi everyone. I’m Jill and I just joined this group yesterday. I have been a member of Tumblr since May ‘07. I recently moved from Canada to the US (well, about 5 months ago now), and I would love to find other Canadian women on Tumblr. I follow a few, but I know there must be more out there! If you’re from Canada, or follow anyone from Canada, please let me know.
relief at last
i know some of yall were having the same problem yesterday where everything you wanted to post went straight to preview and it was SO difficult not to throw a tantrum at work b/c i shouldn’t be blogging at work! (run-on sentences much?) but it is fixed, and i hope everyone is as happy as i am about it. i know i just posted like 6 things in a row! make that 7!
