Once upon a time I had a subscription to NY Mag (and all its little publications). Then I canceled it. Later, I decided I wanted resubscribe. But I cannot! I don't know what I'm missing but I always land back on this page with no progress having been made. Subscription purgatory.
When I gave my name for my order, guy at Bruegger's told me a good Halloween costume would be to dress up as a road and then I can be the song, "Allison Road." Good one? But I already have my idea for my next costume. Blue Jean Committee. Me and the husband. For my Documentary Now themed party.
You’re shorting me on my tall soy latte, Starbucks. Can’t I have nice things? At least a full drink? (First world problems, I know)
My latest treasure from @bookshop.org. Amazon sucks. Reading is good. Writers are cool. 😎
Please stay tuned for my coffee table book, Front Yard Beer Pong Tables of Iowa City.
Got a sweet notification from my photo history. On this day 14 years ago. I'm guessing she was starting 4th grade. Time really does go much too quickly.
I think the Modern Romance scene where he's high and admiring his records might be my favorite movie scene of all time. Top five, at least. So many, many gold moments in that movie.
Because of the tornadoes that happened in May, trees are decimated or ripped up all over the area of St. Louis where I'm staying (including the pride of St. Louis, Forest Park). It's really pretty sad. Like so much character and beauty just wiped away.
Newest family member. I'm not allowed to name it. :( But I think it should be called Clover.
This is hard, but I'll do my best to whittle it down. (I do feel kind of bad that they are all dudes)
You‘ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last tv show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you?
I don't want to pay the $75 but there's something kind of sweet about being sent this photo of me speeding down I-80 in my HR-V on a Sunday morning.
