and then I saw these

I went with my sister to a party store yesterday and found these cards that rival the ones from papyrus.

While not encrusted with sparkles the pictures themselves are just too good.

I like that they all revolve around food.

I think this one is my favorite as I can relate to it the most:

I don't understand why it's "almost funny" when I find it incredibly funny.  I mean that really is me, right down to his having to close his wonk eye.

some of the nicest cards I've ever seen

I went to Papyrus to hang out with Ashley and talk about potential business cards.  While I waited for her to change I was perusing their cards and found these three.

It's like they created these cards out of my very imagination!

If I had anybody to send a card to I would have bought them all, but sadly it seems nobody wants anything to do with me these days.

Aint it the truth.

every drink should have one of these

Ashley and I went out for lunch today before she had to go to work.  I ordered a bloody mary, not thinking that it would be the largest bloody mary that has ever happened.  I was also not expecting a paper umbrella, but I'm not complaining.

They speared an olive with the umbrella so it would stay in place.  Ingenious.

You know how sometimes you think you know what you're looking for, but then you're reminded that you have everything you need already.  That's how I've felt seeing my friends in NY this week.

Only like 1000x less cool than this guy.

waiting for Katy

If you ever have time to kill I suggest sitting on the bench in front of 9th St. Espresso as you will see a parade of some of the nicest doggies the east village has to offer.

I was really only there for about 10 minutes, but it was just one precious angel after another.

And they were all so well behaved.  I feel like if I were a tiny dog left all alone on a busy sidewalk in nyc I would just freak out, but these guys just looked around and smiled at everyone.

Maybe I should become a dog walker, just like Jennifer Lopez in Monster in Law.  I base a lot of my life decisions on Jennifer Lopez movies anyways, I don't know why I hadn't considered this already.  And if the result of being a dog walker is that I get to have hilarious encounters with Jane Fonda then sign me up!

i shouldn't have gone

I knew in my gut it was a bad idea but when Kim asked me if I wanted to go to the Petco in Union Square and look at the kitties I couldn't resist.

: ( ( (

Somebody needs to go there immediately and save this precious angel.

I want one

Got to have lunch with two of my favorite ladies and this handsome guy today.

He could not have been any cuter.
