Erin and I went to the Indianapolis Art Center in Broad Ripple to take some outfit pictures. The pictures were supposed to be a joke, but they kinda ended up looking real, except for the fact that mine are terrible quality because I used Microsoft Paint to edit them. I posted the details of my outfit just … Continue reading »

the Indiana State Fair
The Indiana State Fair is pretty much exactly the same as the Ohio State Fair, so of course I had to go. Who doesn’t love fried food, carnival rides, barnyard animals, and people watching? Our first stop was the apple cider slush/corn on the cob booth. A weird combination, but both were delicious. Colin made … Continue reading »
summer haul so far
It’s summertime which means it’s yard sale season, which means I’ll probably collect an inordinate amount of nonsensical crap that I don’t need because I can’t resist a chance to nose around in someone else’s discarded belongings. Also, my birthday was last month, and I bought some cool stuff at the INDIEana Handicraft Exchange. So … Continue reading »
INDIEana Handicraft Exchange
Last weekend Erin and I went to the INDIEana Handicraft Exchange. It was so awesome! It was really hot outside and I got a little sunburned, but there were so many great vendors with awesome handmade wares to sell. I kind of spent too much money, but the things I snagged were totally worth it. … Continue reading »
the Facebook game
I took this idea from Nova, because why not? Rules: 1. Post your first ever Facebook profile picture 2. Pick one photo from each consecutive year up to the present one 3. Explain 2006: This photo was taken in Tomahawk, Wisconsin at a bonfire at my friend Joe’s house. I had just graduated from high … Continue reading »

On the first Friday of every month from May through November, a bunch of Indy food trucks get together downtown at the Murat for the Food Truck Fest. You pay an admission fee for access to live music, beer, and a clusterfuck of some of the most delicious and unique “restaurants” that Indianapolis has to … Continue reading »
2012 in photos
Okay, so the first one is from 2011, but these are a few pictures of what I’ve been doing so far this year. December: It’s a tradition to go Christmas light cruising in my hometown, and there’s this one house that always looks like a face with a mustache. Classic. January: Colin and I went … Continue reading »
garikfest 2012
Last weekend my friend Garik traveled to Indianapolis to visit me and Gretchen. Garik is one of my oldest friends–we’ve been buddies since eighth grade when we used to sit at the same table in science class. He’s been a real vagabond lately, hippying it up in St. Petersburg just blocks from where Jack Kerouac died in … Continue reading »
St. Patrick’s Day: Indy style
This is the lovely view from our balcony door on St. Patrick’s Day. The weather was absolutely perfect for an all-day drink-a-thon, and I had an amazing time and didn’t even black out even though I started drinking around 1pm. Waking up on St. Patrick’s Day was more exciting for me than waking up on … Continue reading »
my first “blog date”
So, in October, I had the opportunity for Dressed to Chill to be sponsored by one of my favorite bloggers, Mary Rebecca. I did a guest post on Mary’s blog and spent some time poking around the blogs, Tumblrs, and Twitter accounts of Mary’s other October sponsors, including Erin from eef-ink. I started following eef on … Continue reading »
