who let the dogs out?

haiiii blogsphere. i have missed you so. have you missed me? who am i kidding? of course you have missed me.

I am currently infatuated with the color purple, Ke$ha, zamzar, nose rings, spicy tuna rolls, MLIA, honeycrisp apples, cardigans, transmet caesar salads, and all things fall. duh.

Never have I ever celebrated fall more fervently than I have this year. I am legitimately cracked out on fall. 1979 has become a shrine to the season, and I must say--autumn looks nice on you, 1979. Last week, Kerry and I went pumpkin hunting. Baby Kerry raised hell over at Kroger, rummaging all up in their bins until we found three perfect pumpkins. We also managed to find the very last pumpkin carving kit at Joanne's, 50% off. Our wildly inappropriate ruthlessness paid off. GREAT SUCCESS. Now the front porch is decorated with an ostrich pumpkin (mine/catalinas), a dragon pumpkin (sarahs/baby kerrys), and a squirrel/ penis pumpkin (gresHAMs--no help from anyone! no stencils! swine you are worthy of our praise!!! all hail SHAM WOW!).

This weekend smel and I RAGED on fall edibles. I'm talking chili. cornbread. caramel apples. smores. pumpkin bread. candy corn pumpkins. mars mix of halloween minis. apple cider. pumpkin beer.

out. of. control. Fall just yacked all over the kitchen. nbd.

Now if only the weather would allow me to don sweaters and scarves and botas. Alas, I went to class in shorts today. heyyy climate change.

Last weekend smel and I trekked up to Chucktown to attend an art gallery opening. We're so damn cultured I can hardly stand it. I got to see sweet Vicky Torie and my GIRLLL Netta, and of course my love Holly Wolly. Hollis is a badass and was working at aforementioned art gallery opening, and so I think it's appropriate that we all take a moment to reflect on how we can better our own lame lives to become more like Hollis, and thus more of a badass. Ohmmm.

In my badass endeavors, I am considering putting a ring into my nose piercing in lieu of the stud. Too much? Tell me what you think. I may or may not care. ALSO I have always wanted to dye my hair bleach blonde. Never more-so than when I discovered KE$HA. I love this bitch. If you haven't heard her song Tik Tok you must download it asap. It's my JAM. Yet another to add to my list of celeb obsessions.

ANYWAYS Charleston was a b-last. As always, we had to hit Jim N Nicks and Einstein Bagels. And you know I got my Fro Yo onnn. Plus we went to a haunted corn maze, which was the shit. Except for when the dude with the chainsaw TOUCHED ME WITH THE CHAINSAW. I don't THINK so chainsaw dude. RUDE! Friday night after we'd had our fill of culture, we found ourselves a couple of keg parties. Keg party numero uno ended with a boy turning out the lights at 11 and yelling "PARTY'S OVER!" because homebody wanted to go to the bars and the keg was tapped. I was beyond appalled, but appeased when informed that we had a ride to another partayy. Party numero dos ended when I released all three of the resident canines into the great outdoors. That's right, ladies and gentlemen, I LET THE DOGS OUT. The guy who lives there was so pissed, and started screaming "WHO LET THE DOGS OUT?" Classic. I couldn't stop laughing and spewed beer all the f over their hardwood floors. For some reason, no one else found this humorous, so we excused ourselves and called a cabbie to shuttle our party fouled asses home. Saturday night (after I was scarred for life by the chainsaw incident) we played a rousing game of power hour then made our way over to Pi Kapp for some frat-tastic fun. A good time was had by all, until Sunday morning when we woke up 3 hours too late to get on the road, then ended up missing the entire lunch shift that we were supposed to be working. OOPS! I can always count on Charleston for a good time.

PARTY SNEAKS HAVE ARRIVED. They made their debut on Thursday night, paired with a black denim mini and a shit ton of gold jewelry. They're appropriately on display in my room, next to my tiara. I love you, party sneaks. So much.

NOW THE PARTY DONT START TIL I WALK INNNNN. DONT STOP. MAKE IT POP. DJ BLOW MY SPEAKERS UP. TONIGHT. IMA FIGHT. TIL WE SEE THE SUNLIGHT. TIK. TOK. ON THE CLOCK. BUT THE PARTY DONT STOP NO.

peace love and party sneak$
