Now tagless for your comfort.

I currently have three unfolded baskets of laundry just taunting me. I HATE the folding with a white-hot hate.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PERKINS!!!!

Wash-n-Fold, baybee, Wash-n-Fold!

My other Spoiled New Yorker Indulgence is that the roommies and I chip in for a housekeeper once a month. It's only $23 each and its amazing how well we keep it up if there is a base-level of clean.

Because books.

Wash-n-Fold, baybee, Wash-n-Fold!

Yes, this. When we lived in the city, we quickly learned this was the Best Thing Ever. And pretty cheap, at that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I agree in principle, but having been to Frank Pepe's, I can't argue with their conclusions.

Yeah, I haven't been there, so don't have an actual argument to make.

“Not dead yet!”

Cash is me. Down to the number of baskets currently taunting and the white-hot hate.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PERKINS!

I love folding laundry, but I hate putting it away in the drawers.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

guys will flag "BBW" ads so they're taken down.

Okay, I had to google BBW. Damn, that is so horrifying and depressing.

Humans. Eeesh.

housekeeper once a month

We do this twice a month and OMG it is the best money we ever spent - EVER! When we go to a single paycheck, we plan to cut everywhere but there.

I imagine this is utterly delicious, but I can't read the description without rolling my eyes a bit:

36. Best place to eat: Ravioli -- Babbo, New York

"I love the oxtail ravioli with black truffles and pigeon liver sauce at Babbo in New York, my favourite restaurant. It is a simple neighbourhood Italian, but it has a wonderful atmosphere . The only problem is that the restaurant is so busy you have to book a month in advance."

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I bet I could convince the other parents in the building to split a cleaning service with me - maybe we'd get a price break if we had someone come in to clean 4 apartments at once? Because having someone come in and even just do the floors once a month would be a huge help.
