photo by matt miller I’m kinda in love with this wedding, shot by the amazing Matt Miller. Check the bride and groom’s painted Toms, and the photo of the dress with one of Philadelphia’s famed murals. I saw the photos just after I woke up from a dream where I had a full back piece and sleeves… Unfortunately, they weren’t good ones and I freaked out and looked at my...

So, I’m still on a beisbol high, but this is pretty freaking adorable—it’s suddenly mad hot in Oz (harumph), and a koala took sips of water from a cyclist’s bottle and then apparently followed him home for a bath. Precious!

Whatchu know about that? My team just nabbed a postseason berth. (That’s what the little ‘z’ means.) Hell to the yes. In as the American League wildcard, at least, but we’ve got our sights on the division. Watch out, NYY. This makes up for some shitty stuff lately.

So law students have the super fun task of applying for jobs for the summer as soon as the preceding summer ends. AWESOME! The worst part, though, is when you look up the contact at a particular job, on the organization’s staff listing, and he’s hot, and you’re oh-so-tempted to write something like, if it doesn’t work out on the job front, maybe we could grab a coffee...

Ain’t ashamed to admit I’m catching up on Gossip Girl. This song was performed during season three and oh my GOSH, I love it. Their French accents are so adorable and gosh, I’d kill to look like any of these girls. Tres cool.

Btw, deactivating facebook is apparently a foolproof way to get all of your friends to think you’re mad at them. I’ve been putting out fires for the past two days left and right. Maybe that explains people’s self-important “Deactivating for a little while” statuses before they do so. Hmmm. I believe the preferred terminology is ‘first world problems?’

The Sartorialist in Atlanta
photo by scott schuman. Seeing photos taken by the Sartorialist in Atlanta is so super cool. Most of the ones he’s posted so far seem to be from Little 5 Points. This one is in front of the liquor store on Moreland Ave, right next to the Vortex. I went to a gallery that was showing an exhibit of his photos which he and Garance were present for! Quelle cool! Scott says they’re coming...

So I decided to take a little facebook hiatus. And as I deactivated, this popped up. Names of people that are going to “miss me,” with pictures of us together. I promise you, facebook—they won’t. I find this more than a little creepy. Does anyone else feel overwhelmed sometimes by all of the social networking that’s available lately? Facebook, twitter, yelp,...

photo via apartment therapy. How amazing is this house? Gorgeous! (Click the link for tons and tons of photos.) I want to build tents like these—especially the first one!—and sit in them and sip tea (okay, vodka sodas) with my best girlfriends and make silly jokes all night. A pretty, rustic Long Island wedding. The bride’s demure cap sleeve gown is really nice. Hilda found an...

The “f-word” being “feminist.” Tavi is such a cool little lady—at thirteen she’s smarter, savvier, and a lot more thoughtful than myself and a lot of other people my age. I thought I would get quite the beating from my peers, and I was totally wrong. And kind of disappointed! Which sounds horrible (it’s a good thing that I can be openly feminist at school)...

I’m getting back into riding. I’d really like to get good, but I sort of suck. Anyway, I had a pretty epic ride tonight: - Saw a cat get run over by a car. I yelled out. The next car stopped, the cat ran away, and looked back like, watch it, bitch. - Saw the most whackadoodle crazy person ever. Sitting in a lawn chair, facing an overgrown lot, smoking a cigarette. She...

by endofmarch. Wouldn’t it be awesome to put together a rad group of pirates, and hopefully we’d get to wear pretty, flowy dresses in shades of champagne and blush, and we’d sail around on this boat giving people hot chocolate in exchange for all of the cookies they had. Sounds like a dream.

on quitting
This is kind of a tough call, but I’ve decided not to continue with project 365 this time around. It’s really stressing me out and I’m not enjoying it. I like taking photos each day, but uploading them from my camera to my computer and then to flickr is really time consuming, and as much as I hate quitting things, I’ve decided not to go on with it. I think that will inspire...

The trouble with Woody Allen
A movie arrived in the mail today (thanks, Netflix). Husbands and Wives. I added it to my queue at some point. I take it out of the envelope and read the synopsis: Director Woody Allen stars with Mia Farrow in his critically acclaimed comedy as a long-married New York couple whose own relationship starts to crumble when their best friends announce they’re separating. I think, fuck,...

Sooo, yours truly has developed a new favorite YouTube genre: Chik-fil-a cows doing random stuff. Amazing. A few of my favorites: Cow playing Rock Band. Cow benchpressing. Cow jogging on a treadmill. Cow on a waterslide. Cow diving and swimming. Cow doing the Soulja Boy dance. This video combines the Chik-fil-a cow with my other YouTube love, weathermen… Super amazing. Watch through...

image via wikipedia I finally watched Candy, which—despite mixed reviews—I found to be pretty great. Heath Ledger was such an amazing actor. I continue to be saddened by his death, even now, two and a half years later. It still doesn’t feel real, and it’s definitely a huge loss. And, not to get into rumors or suppositions, but watching him play someone struggling with...

photo and map by ingrid burrington Map of missed connections in New York City. I’m only a little embarrassed to admit that I check missed connections fairly regularly, but as I’m not a gay man, do not ride a lot of public transportation, nor am I particularly attractive, I’ve yet to be the subject of someone’s longing. Alas.

Either I’m super PC or people at Emory are insensitive, or I’ve been living in a hole (my little world)/bubble (New College), but I’ve been completely shocked over the last year and change about the way people speak. Lots of gratuitous cursing, in class and out. That’s gay, or retarded. And I flinch every time. I think it’s awful. Sometimes I say things to my friends,...

…years later I met and married a man who ate bacon, prime rib, smoked salmon, lobster and Black Forest ham, and gulped coffee and cocktails. He had thick, wild hair; strong opinions; plaid pants; and big sweaters. On our first date he told me, in a deep voice, and with a conviction that alarmed me, that he loved me. I learned that his father had been in the confectionary business for decades...
