experiment: nyc subletting

passive aggressive notes aside, my roommates have been cool. recently, they've gone to pot. on sunday mornings, tuesday mornings and sometimes friday afternoons.

the best part is that while I've quarantined myself in my room to avoid the smell i told myself i was done smelling post-nathan, i suddenly hear a few familiar intonations coming from the living room while they toke. it occurs to me that they are playing marley. MARLEY! so so great. and these girls went to wellesley for crying out loud.

what i have learned:
1) cliches. love em.
2) i got skunk'd.

experiment: pop rocks at the Rock

what i have learned:
kissing with pop rocks. hmmm. not the sensory overload you might think. and contrary to that old canard - "sugar makes everything better," - i assure you, no. not so. kind of sticky and gross. on top of that, i believe we chose the wrong flavor. watermelon pop rocks don't really taste like anything, no fruit flavor, no fruit flavor at all! gushers would probably be more exciting.

experiment: baking, part II

presenting the newest creation: macaroni and cheese pie.

what i have learned: sometimes there's nothing more glorious than being american.

experiment: trend setting

i'm bringing unsexy back.
i'm bringing comfy back.
i'm bringing 1993 back.

join me.



what i have learned: i know what you're thinking. but i have learned that comfort is worth it. plus for awhile there i was in real danger of being "one of those girls who gets pedicures." also, that is One Attractive Sandal.

look for next week's experiment "trend setting, the sequel" on how i plan to reinstitute the "middle part - no bangs" style to girlworld hairworld! go team ugly!

experiment: substance use

i have a shake shack hangover.
