tra la la time killing strategies

Rather than search for jobs or study this morning I've...

read part of a deliciously mindless Clive Cussler novel. How ever will they return the golden buddha to its rightful owner!

changed my firefox "persona" about a million times

and shared photos from this slideshow of westminster-winning dogs with my mom

I still think Libby is cuter

I hope you are all having a far more productive day :)

break's over

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend! I managed to cram in quite a few of my favorite things - dogs, old friends, and beer tasting.  On Saturday, I schlepped from the mimoun's house in stamford, CT to my dear friend Lia's apartment on the upper west side. We lounged around while I overwhelmed her seven month old lab Phoebe with all of my pent-up dog love since being away from Libby.  She is so beautiful and has this adorable, quizzical look on her face most of the time. She will make a first rate guide dog one day!

Here's precious phoebe as a younger pup with Lia's permanent dog, Pauly

Sunday, Alie, Erin and I had an oh so super cool and delicious brunch at Rye in Brooklyn, followed by a wonderful session of afternoon beers at the Brooklyn Brewery.  Their brown ale is noteworthy and now officially N the E endorsed.

thank you to my lovely beer models

now, time to find a job!

I so wish I had my own

Don't tell Libby.

I loooove thise blog, it has the prettiest pictures (such as these). Enjoy!

Okay I know this may be old news for many of you, but this blog makes me crack up every time! I think it's hilarious! What is better than an adorable little dog making satirical coments? I ask you. We've got to figure out how to get Libby on here.

First of many posts about Libby

Libby is the Stillman's dog, with whom we are all obsessed. Lucy once asked me, "Don't you think all the time about how you wish you could text Libby?" Well, honestly, I hadn't thought about it. What would she text me? maybe something like, "Hi nora I loveloveloveloveloveyou!" Dogs bring me such joy! Their unique personalities, the fact that are as needy for love and attention as I am, the fact that they love you unconditionally in a world where we're constantly evaluated and too often isolated. These are pics of Libby from the birthday party we had for her in Dolores Park. Some lady informed us that the chocolate cupcakes we were eating probably weren't good for the dog. ohmygoshnowayyy

Happy dog!

snoozing, long day at the park
