I miss my friend.
Not my boyfriend.
GCT
Most days are good. Some, like today, are bad. Its started off fine. I woke up. Had plenty of rest from a productive evening. I spoke to Amanda on the phone. Got ready to go to brunch. I walked out of the house, crossed the street, and said to myself “I love my life.” The 7 train took me straight to Grand Central.
I hadn’t been there since we broke up. I wasn’t avoiding...

Cannot date the following:
Men who wear ugly shoes. Ex: They think Skechers are fashionable. (barf)
Men with small hands. I want to be manhandled, not delicately touched by a man child.
Men with bad acne. If I kiss you, the only thing wet should be my saliva.
Men who still dress like the best years of their lives. Ex: white t-shirt, black vest, and your page boy hat backwards was cool in 1999. But now Samuel L. Jackson...
This is to my friend
Who didn’t know about “The DSO Kit,” but got hers anyway.
You like to be wooed ever so gently in any romantic situation, and do not appreciate the kind of approach that doesn’t take into account your delicate sensibilities. Yet with today’s planetary alignment, you may, for once, actually find yourself wanting to be immediately seduced by someone incredibly special....
Nothing like...
New kinckers for a new life. No more pink w/ dogs, polka dots, stripes, etc. cotton undies. Only black hipster/cheeky and ones that match my bras. (Unfortunately, that is not my ass. It’s probably not hers anyway… Can we say Photoshop?)
You know what's not cute
Control top underware. It makes you look good with your clothes on, but when you (or he) takes your clothes off… It’s just not attractive. But I guess by then, he doesn’t care.
Now that I’m not a part of a couple, I see them everywhere. But that’s ok. They look content. I’m sure I appeared the same way too. This was my choice and am happy with it.
“Yes, I come with baggage. But at least mine are designer and they all match.”

The Essentials: DSO (Dirty Stay Out)
Being single in NYC (not that I have been for very long) you tend to carry your life with you. I’ve learned from my self-proclaimed eternal bachelorette, S, it’s not an easy feat.
Here’s your starter kit…
Mini-make up kit: the ones that have that all in one thing w/ eye shadow/blush/lip stain. I for one am trying to par that down to maybe an all in one stick and carry...
I’ve finally moved into my new place. And it feels like I’m moving into someone else’s life. Not one of my own at 32. But what was it I was supposed to being doing at 32 again? I don’t think I had any clue. I know people move into craigslist postings everyday, and it is usually ok. But my parents are making me paranoid. ‘Put a lock here… put a lock there.’...

I keep waking up in the early hours of the morning, hoping that I’d wake up to a different dream. But I don’t. Cause when I awake, I’m still filled with the same emotion that fills every gaping hole: greif, sadness, loss. Nobody died in that dream, just abandoned again and again. I wish I was busy enough to fill that emotional void. But it’s only the little boy pluggig the...

This is what I like to hear...
Got the Trad Home meeting today…
“Expect a very busy day ahead, Michelle. There is a lot of work to be done, and everyone pitches in to help. It’s hard work, to be sure, but gratifying to see the results that teamwork can bring in such a short time. You’d finish more quickly if you ignored the constant ringing of the telephone, but this turns out to be a welcome...
Duh!
“No matter how hard you try to forget the past, or to abandon old lovers to the scrap heap of your romantic life, you still find it very difficult to totally erase from your life either their memory, or the letters and gifts they sent you. However, a challenging aspect today helps you understand that new lovers won’t arrive if the old ones still haunt you.”
Doesn’t take a...
I already tried.
Relationships have a refreshing quality today, with todays favorable transits. So this is a great time to review your current love affair and decide if you have anything to bring into the open. Is there anything that needs to be said, any issues that need discussing, or anything that is weighing on your mind and preventing you from moving forward? Air all your linen whilst the opportunity for...
Still Missing
I have amazing friends. Friends who in this time of loss will text, email, send me music in this time of loss. Ones that suggest dinner and lots of drinks. But after a night of revelry, when I’m alone at nights with my thoughts, I’m missing my 3am delirium friend (not the pink elephant kind). The one I used to call. Not cause nobody would answer their phones when I needed them to, but because...
Solace Among Stacks
I like escaping into Barnes and Noble. The thing that ruins it is people that smell like pee.
How fitting...
Because I pick up the keys today. Queens, here I come.
It appears your ship has just come in, Michelle. This sudden windfall could get you thinking about making some kind of major change. Perhaps you’re ready to move to a better neighborhood, or are even prepared to relocate to an entirely different city. However, do some careful planning and budgeting before making any rash decisions....
AGAIN with the lies...
The position of the planets in the sky may indicate that your current partnership is going through quite a few changes. Rather than resist these, this is a positive time to go within yourself, and actively let go of any feelings of anger or hurt that may have been building up. Once you are free of hidden resentments, you will feel a lot better about your lover. The feeling will be mutual!
30-day... Check
Bought my first 30-day unlimited Metrocard for the first time in 4 years. I suppose that means freedom. But it also means more shoes! Shoes in NYC = Cali Tires! Mine are just sexier. (not quite sure how sexy my snow boots are, but I guess with leggings = city snow bunny!)
