Hello.

I work in comedy tv.

I force myself to twitter.

I perform comedy on stage.

I live in Brooklyn Heights, Brooklyn, New York.

This started as a place for me to show my Mom things that are pretty for homes.

If you would like to see where the pictures on this tumblr came from, just click on the photo. I probably didn't take the photo.

this is me.

Text reblogged from all the latest moves

i love surprises

allthelatestmoves:

And I was so surprised tonight!

My friends are great.

They set up a night for us at The Creek and I was expecting to do an improv show and hang out, but lo and behold:

The Story Pirates performed a story I wrote when I was 9 years old, called “Three freinds in California” [sic] and I had no idea they would be there. I cried harder than when the bus moves on Extreme Home Makeover.

About 15 fabulous Chicago improvisers were secretly invited and we did a super fun set together.

M.A.D. did a hilarious set as well.

Boys Club ended the night with some ridiculous nonsense and it was just the best time ever. I’m hoarse.

My friends are amazing. I am going to miss New York.

This happened and it was fun. My roommate is moving away. Barf.

When I lived in Chicago a van exploded in front of my friend’s house. I guess it was actually set in fire, because cars don’t just explode, right? It was weird.

I’m in the market for some not-blue industrial shelving, if you happen to have any hanging around your house. 34” wide, and very tall please.

Remaining things to do in this house:

1. shelving, what I just said

2. bedside table

3. replace all the ceiling light fixtures

4. replace shower curtains

5. end table

6. find a new roommate

7. mourn loss of current roommate to Los Angeles

Finally bought this table today, from lovely new-ish store Holler and Squall on Atlantic and Hicks in Brooklyn.

Thank god!

The map is the one I hauled back on the plane from Austin, from Uncommon Objects.

I hung my curtains today. Big pain in the ass.

I ran out of curtain rings. Bigger pain in the ass.

I do not believe in pole pocket drapes (as shown above). THERE I SAID IT.

My mom is coming very soon. You know, the mom that this blog is named after.

This year my new year’s resolution was to see my parents every other month. I failed miserably and have seen my mom only once in 2009. Gulp.

That is some dumb shit, and it’s solely because of work. People in NY work too hard.

(No one in any other city in the state, country, continent or world work hard. Ever. Quote me on that.)
