sunday recap

I locked myself out at 9:30 a.m. I learned what to order next time at brunch. I drank my weight in unlimited bloodys and mimosas. I drank prosecco on a rooftop & sunned myself in a sports bra. I lost my BonChon virginity and bought an emergency sundress at Old Navy. I sang lead vocals* on “Come Clean” [you know it as the Hilary Duff ‘Rain’ song] with 6 gay boys at karaoke, which may have been the highlight of my year. (*They weren’t expecting that, but it became clear pretty quickly that they needed my estrogen.)

I got a call from my super’s son-in-law, who was around and ready to let me into my apartment. I turned down a ride from the one straight boy at karaoke because I was “too drunk to hang on” (but really “scared sh*tless to ride on a motorcycle”), but promised him that yes, we’d go rock climbing and on other adventures before he goes back into the Army.

I got into a cab, and into my apartment at 9:30 p.m. Pretty full day, I’d say.

notes to self

You know, you had a FEELING that before KJ left for the Philippines you should give your spare keys to someone else. 

But you didn’t…and you just locked yourself out. On a Sunday.

K. Chill. It could be WAY worse. You’ve got your wallet. Fully charged iPad. Latest issue of Wired. Camera. You can charge your dying phone at the gym (critical!). [You will…also probably be featured on #whitewhine?]

Best case scenario? Your super calls back ASAP, cheerily saying she was coming into town anyway, she’ll meet you in 5. You’ll get into your apt and cross things off your to-do list: massive photo editing, cleaning, napping. 

Worst case scenario? You’ll: have brunch with Keith & co.; spend the rest of the day outside, reading, drinking, taking pictures; find a couch to crash on; get your keys first thing in the a.m.

And then make about 50 more spare sets of keys.

#did I mention I got pinkeye at the wedding? #bring on the alcohol please
$35 for a flight of 3 kinds of mac & cheese + 4 glasses of wine @ Beecher's Handmade Cheese → perks.urbandaddy.com

I’m a little skeptical of these food + drink combo deals after getting screwed by a WineBar deal from DailyCandy (SO not worth the price), but this one sounds worth it, especially compared to their regular prices (unless of course every serving is thimble-sized). Yes? Who’s coming with?

#my best friend's wedding
I just made

an “eating for two?” crack to the (pregnant) maid of honor’s husband.

He’s a Marine.

Pretty sure he’s gonna kill me in my sleep. (He basically promised as much.)
