My Birthday - Please Help
evangotlib:
My birthday is this Wednesday and I don’t need a damn thing.
So I hooked up with the NYC Food Bank to run a Food Bank Fund Raise. My goal is to raise $2,500 between now and the end of the day on Wednesday, November 30th.
I’d be grateful if you clicked and donated. This is going to be a very tough winter for a record number of NYC children who do not have enough to eat.
Thanks...

Kit: You should call it the Holden Caufield.
Kit: You should call it the Molly - what's Molly Ringwald's character in "Sixteen Candles"? You should call it the Molly Ringwald because she's a ginger and her cherry isn't popped. ZING!
Kit: That wasn't funny?
Me: I'm just waiting for you to stop.

I use Dropbox to backup everything I do and keep them synced across computers and my iphone, allowing me instant access to whatever it is I’m working on. Evernote has become my new...

too drunk to remember
Me: Let's watch 'Parks & Rec.'
-: We did last night, don't you remember?
Me: ...no?
-: Good. Then you were probably also too drunk to remember the crying.
Me: I cried?
-: Uh, no. Not you.
Me: Oh, right! YOU cried!
-: Shit.
Me: At a Christmas commercial.
-: It was so heartfelt and sentimental!
