My prof is sick = best news ever
I know I shouldn’t revel in anyone’s misery but I just got an email that my marketing professor has the flu and there will be no class tonight. I’m still sick with my own flu so this means I won’t have to try to survive 3 hours of class. I did it last night and it nearly killed me, I was the girl sniffling and coughing in the back of the class with a box of tissues, vitamin...

When you work from home there are no sick days.
But there are days where it’s totally legit to work in a reclined position from the couch/bed because it hurts to move/talk/do anything.
Today is one of those days.

I may have broken my shopping hiatus to get a couple of these classics. They’re well made and last forever - jump on it!

Topical: Shit Liz Lemon Says
Even though I’m on a shopping hiatus and it’s the middle of winter I still have the following on my need to buy list:
Straight leg white pants
Nude wedge pumps
It’s impossible to completely turn off my shopping switch…and Tumblr. Both of which tell me I need things.

Too sore to move
Yesterday Mark and I decided to go for a run together.
I figured it would be a breeze, I’ve been running for a couple weeks and Mark was just starting so keeping up should be easy. Heck, maybe I’d be faster than him.
Oh Kate…Oh poor naive little Kate.
No, I was not faster.
Curse Mark’s natural athleticism and my lack there of.
I did push myself to keep up with him but...
Can I weigh in on popular culture and divorce here...
“While we have enjoyed seven very loving, loyal and happy years of marriage, after much soul-searching we have decided to separate.”
“We have had the deepest respect for one another throughout our relationship and continue to love each other very much, but we have grown apart.”
- Heidi Klum, People
EXCUSE ME?! You’ve “grown apart”? That is your. own....

When you have in-laws, no matter how awesome they are (and I think I have awesome in-laws) they will still drive you a little crazy.
Why is that?
Well, my theory is that all those little quirks that your spouse has - the ones that walk the line between being super adorable and driving you up the fucking wall - are also present in your in-laws.
But you aren’t in love with your in-laws.

My crazy person struggle to trim my bangs
My bangs are in terrible need of a trim. They flop in my face, they cover my eyes, they are just too damn long right now.
I should have had them trimmed by now, since I’ve been telling myself to trim them for two weeks AND my hair stylist gives free bang trims AND I only live a block and a half away from the hair salon.
So why the hell aren’t my bangs trimmed?
Well, 1. despite the...

Can anyone else's dog not walk on rock salt?
I took Callie out this morning and tried to keep her on the grass but even a little bit of walking on the salted sidewalks and she was limping on all her paws after just a block. Then she just stopped and curled into a ball and whimpered. I carried her back to the apartment, wiped her feet off, and then she was fine.
So - my question is…
Is it normal for dogs to have such a painful...
Life is too long to do something you don’t enjoy.
– Although I dropped the class this one phrase uttered by the professor stuck with me. It probably also prompted me to drop the class.

Call me a coward
I dropped a class last night. I sat in that class for 3 hours and the whole time all I could think was I don’t want to do any of this.
I hated the class format, I hated the guy next to me eating a pear so loudly people began to throw nasty glares his way, but most of all I hated the main project - which basically involved cold calling businesses and getting the owner to agree to let me...

When you finally finish that big work project...
…after days of working on it and you’re like:
Yes, I’m finally done! Time for a drink!
And then you realize that it’s only 9am and you’re not enough of an alcoholic to make yourself a drink, even though you work from home and no one would know.

Despite everything Mark and I were able to share a kiss at midnight.
There were no sequins, glitter, or fancy parties for us but it’s a new year and we’re together.
Thank you for all your kind wishes - Mark is doing much better today. His worst injuries were two lacerations he sustained from being hit over the head during the attack. He’ll just be sporting hats for awhile...
