BLIZZARD OF '96!..I mean '09.

There's nothing quite like braving a blizzard in Center City. While cat sitting in a beautiful home downtown with TD, the snow started to fall. And it kept falling. And falling. With no snow gear, no snow boots, not even a pair of long johns, the two of us slipped into some homemade snow shoes and tramped our way out into the world. The white, deserted, wintry world of Philadelphia. At nightfall, we ventured out again and I was treated to a delicious dinner at Kanella...mmm...while the winds kicked up the snow drifts wildly outside. Here's some of my cell phone documentation of BLIZZARD OF 2009! brrrrrrr.


it can be rough, winter in the city...it is beautiful though...
















and it was fun...

That time of year...

Every year the ladies of The Other Woman exchange gifts in a pollyanna fashion...and every year I worry about what is the perfect thing to get for whoever it is that I'm buying for, which usually involves me going crazy for weeks. Not so this year! We haven't even picked names yet and I already found the perfect gift for whoever I get...see as different as we all are, we also all have the same streak of fancy lady sauciness running through us and I think this gift appeals to that. Heck, if I wasn't broke I would've just gotten one for each of us I think its so perfectly The Other Woman! Now after all this hype, I hope it lives up to all I've made it out to be...we wil see...

Lingerie Football League

The Lingerie Football League kicked off professionally this year, breaking free from its once annual NFL Super Bowl half time broadcast.

Below you will find an introduction into this new fascination.







"This is The True Meaning of Fantasy Football"
-Spike
"Unbelievable, every man's dream"
-SportingNews







Did you ever see that movie Idiocracy?
Well, I've come to realize that we are beginning to parallel that film more and more as the days go by.



...because women cannot gain popularity playing professional American football without a gimmick..

Ladies

Since I was a little girl I've loved ladybugs.
They've even creeped into my artwork...
My grandmother would always speak of their good luck whenever we'd see them together.
With their recent flock to the interior of my parents' home,
Gram again reminded me of the the good fortune they would bring me.

Below is a memorial to the sweet ladies that resided in my parents' home before their untimely deaths by Raid. A few of them beat the odds though...

R.I.P lil' gals<3
