  • I have a new job!

    Apologies for the radio silence lately — with things in progress I didn’t want to risk jinxing anything.

    Today’s purchase: American Apparel two-metres-of-cotton-jersey purple scarf. So simple but I love it! Thin enough to wear indoors and be The Guy That Wears A Scarf Indoors which is basically me in a nutshell. Does this look like an MBA student? No? Whaddya know. So now I need more of these scarves. Here’s the range […]

  • Google image meme

    Candice just did this one and even though it requires a ridiculous amount of effort for very little gain I will do it too. It’s image-y, so it’s behind a cut. Take your answer to each question and type it into Google Image Search. Post one of the images from the first page of results. […]
