The reason half the world feels lonely is because the other half is pretending to be perfect.

-Me. For realz, I just wanted to announce that I came up with that quote on Julia Allison’s tumblr. I e-mailed her with it once. And I told her she could use it wherev. But upon doing a Google search for it, it looks to actually be quite the popular quote. Maybe I should be a quote-writer or something. Or just keep saying smart things?

OK, you can now all un-follow me because you know I e-mail JA on occasion. But first, let me know if you need any words of wisdom.

I can’t tell you how many times my friends look at me and say, “Where do you read these things?!” Mehh, mostly tumblr.

I am probably leaving people out, and that is one of the reasons why I did not want to do this. But there you have it.

I feel so honored!! Stupid is also one of my favorite tumblrs and needs to come to a Boston tumblr hang-out ASAP!!

My high school class treasurer has been uploading loads of pictures from high school to facebook. OK, kind of awkward. Since our school was super lame and they would have killed us if we did anything crazy, our senior prank was to dress like the underclassmen. AKA slutty. And we spelled with cups on the big fence “Last class with class” I just spotted myself in a picture wearing white pants that are too big for me and the opposite of slutty. And an American Eagle tube top that looks horrendous on me. Ughh. That was almost 8 years ago. Thank God my awkward stage semi-went away.
Never assume I know everything, even though I do. My boss in the funniest e-mail ever.

I’m actually Martha Stewart. But I didn’t want to intimidate all you little tumblrs, so I’m pretending to be an average person making average food. Here are my Gingerbread Pancakes.
I don’t care if you are a robot, I will marry you if you make those for me every day.

Did you use baking soda, sparkling water and yogurt to make these? I’m not kidding! That’s how you get that same thick, fluffy cake like consistency! And, btw, that looks freaking amazing. I am so craving pancakes right now.
Noo, it was a fairly normal buttermilk pancake recipe with brown sugar and lots of spices to make it gingerbready. But your recipe sounds very interesting…I want to try!
