NLG's New BLOG

It's fun!

Nine Months in the Ivy League.

It's a Tumblr and awesome, I might switch over.

Enjoy!

lolz!

I'm sorry I have to say something...

Hi all,
Haven't written in a while and this certainly isn't about apartments, but I am fuming.

Are you familiar with the recent Marie Claire post? If you're not, please at least glance at it.

I hope you're saying to yourself "are you f-ing kidding me?"

I just caught up on the story. (FYI: Twitter and blogs went nuts, people are outraged- all right after Maura Kelly posted her extremely intelligent post on a NATIONAL MAGAZINE'S WEBSITE.)

I really like the way Josh Shahryar from the Huffington Post put it. PLEASE take some time to check out his post.

Hey Maura- I hope you're fired. I'm appalled that MC has decided to stand by you. Your apology is bull s**t. As someone who is recovering from an eating disorder, what right do you have to insult others who MAY/MAY NOT have a similar condition!? Oh and I DARE you to replace "fat" with black/Asian/gay. See where that gets you...prejudice is prejudice. Congrats you won the prize.

Locked out?

Chat can help

Chapeau

I bought a cat. for me. and for the house. His name is Chapeau. He is the man of the house now.



He's been a great addition so far, and for my own amusement, I'd like to provide you with a list of his other names:

Hat
Cappy
Chap
Chat
Chit
Champois
Chitty
Cat
Kitty
Chaperone
Shampoo
Champignon
Champagne
Chardonnay
Charades
Bouffanda
Gants

This post will be updated regularly as people come up with great additions.

Just so you know how she's doing, an email from NLG:

i have to go back to the fucking oral surgeon. i am so angry i could kill someone. and if you could see me, you would laugh. but you wouldn't, because that would mean you'd have be within 20 feet of me. which is apparently a bad thing, because THAT IS HOW BAD MY MOUTH/BREATH SMELLS FROM THE INFECTION.

As of today, her mouth is relatively healed as she traveled to LI to commence her LDR.

Other news, we had our housewarming, went well, except when we broke out into a dance party, the landlord called. fail. hopefully we will be model citizens from here on out though. We hung out outside and didn't cause any noise as far as we know.

Check out my Facebook for some housewarming and FI fun.

Retiring....?

So I've contemplated retiring this blog, as I, starting yesterday, do not live with NLG anymore. She has moved to Philadelphia to attend UPENN (wahooo!) and has just finished her masters at NYU. I miss her already and am still dealing with our annoying landlord.

We moved most of our things out this weekend, however I have to go back and clean up tonight and MOVE THE HEAVIEST DRESSER IN THE WORLD OUT TO THE CURB. Grrrrr...

To wrap it all up, on moving day is when we most especially needed a house husband. Luckily we had Tiki, our sometimes house husband, Juan (BF of NLG) and Ross, my NEW roommate's friend, helping us. All were sufficient and extremely perfect house husbands. What we would've done without them was cry.

I urge you to check out my new roommate's blog, as she has been recording her days in Brooklyn after her Euro adventure.

For now, I'd like you to check out our latest addition, for our porch, because they're windproof:
