NYC is cold.
I just went outside with wet hair and it froze.
December 2008
My breakup according to my Facebook status...
9/15 (Day After Breakup): Amelia is breathing. 9/17: Amelia is still breathing, and drank an iced coffee, and is doing work, and is maybe even going to go to yoga today. 9/18: Amelia is back at work and is drinking a Diet Coke and doesn’t give a fuck that her manicure is chipped. 9/20: Amelia is suddenly feeling really fucking pissed off. 9/20: Amelia is sick of Facebook wedding ads. 9/24:...

I fear 2008 will be the “last year I saw you” for a very long time.
How To Prepare For A Hungover New Year's Day
1. Clean your apartment so that the sight of dirty dishes doesn’t make you throw up.
2. Wash your comfiest pajamas so they’re fresh for all day lounging.
3. TiVo many, many movies and TV shows for guaranteed entertainment.
4. Stock up on mac ‘n’ cheese, Sprite, Advil, and magazines
How is Emily Bowen Quartermaine alive?
I am working from home today and watching General Hospital. I thought Emily was strangled to death last New Years? And here she is — and it’s her, not her spirit — dancing with Nikolas. Can someone explain?

I feel like I see him more than a lot of people and he’s so nice and give my dog treats, that I kind of want to get him a “Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!” gift, but normally I would get booze. But obviously that doesn’t really make sense.

New Year's Resolution #1
Stop drinking so much wine, eating mac ‘n’ cheese late night, and sending regrettable Facebook messages.
On our walk this morning, Lucca barked at a homeless man. He responded by screaming, “FUCK YOU DOG, FUCK YOU DOG, FUCK YOU BASTARD DOG, GET OUT OF HERE YOU BASTARD DOG, FUCK YOU!” I don’t know that she’s learned her lesson about barking at people.

Sweet jesus, everything on TV right now is a chick flick. It’s a rom-com fan’s wet dream. Which to watch?! “Must Love Dogs” or “The Wedding Date”? Or do I trade in both for Ryan Reynolds and “Van Wilder”?
A conclusive sign I need to unfollow those...
I had a dream about them last night, in which:
1. I was Julia’s chauffeur — and she commanded me from a headset.
2. Mary was drinking frappaccinos — HA like THAT would ever happen.
3. Meghan was a total murderer. This is weird, but in the dream she cut off a woman’s breasts and then slashed her to death. And Julia was just sitting there next to her, smiling. What do you...
