Liz Lemon is My Spirit Animal

August 10, 2012 in J Bryant Watches with 2 Comments

I’ve been told numerous times that I would enjoy 30 Rock, but I never really got around to watching it. But recently I’ve been seeing gifs of Liz Lemon on my tumblr dashboard. I was intrigued.

So I started watching 30 Rock on Netflix.

And y’all, I love Liz Lemon. Her awkwardness, her glasses, her attitude, her love of food…Liz Lemon is my spirit animal.  

 

I am nearly as oblivious as she is in these situations. And yes, I do believe I would prefer the mozzarella sticks to another drink. Thanks for suggesting that, Liz.

When I told a friend I was moving into this house alone, she made me promise to leave the house once a day. She was afraid I would become a hermit. It might be a valid concern. Which brings me to…

Yes, I have said this before. A friend and I also decided we should throw a “I didn’t marry the wrong guy or have a baby out of wedlock” shower for ourselves. I want nice pots and pans too! And some towels I didn’t purchase at Target in college in various bright colors because I thought it would be fun to have nothing match. And a Keurig. Those things are practically required to be on a wedding registry, aren’t they?

And when I’m around a group of women I don’t know, this is how I feel. Awkward and searching for common ground.

Yes! Preferably some form of potato, but pizza would do too. Or a cheeseburger. Or patty melt. And now I’m hungry. I’m going to go talk to some food about this…

A Weekend in Key West

Maid of Honor, Round Three

August 1, 2012 in J Bryant Writes Archive with Comments Off

For the second time this summer, I’m maid of honor in a wedding. This will be third time as MOH. (Technically fourth, but the first time I was co-maid of honor with my sister for my aunt’s wedding when we were kids.)

This weekend, my little sister is getting married. We’re finishing up some last minute tasks – putting new ribbon the guest book, adding a little color to the flower girl basket, painting our nails :)

So I’ll be focused on that the next few days. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

One of Those Days

July 31, 2012 in J Bryant Writes Archive with 3 Comments

You know, the kind of day when the drain in your tub backs up and floods your bathroom floor. And you try liquid plumber, think it works, until you hear bubbling in the toilet and see toilet water filling the tub.

Oh, and the kind of day when you go on a date and choke on the first bite of sushi. And by choke, I mean literally have a piece of seaweed halfway down your throat and start gagging. Attractive, right?

And the day when you manage to get olive oil, grease, and chewing gum on the same skirt? Favorite skirt. by the way.

Yeah, it’s been one of those days.
