NYC Line Waiting Service

This guy's job is to wait in line for you. Is it just me or is that a brilliant idea? He runs SOLD Inc. (Same Ole Line Dudes) and they charge $25 for the first hour and $10 for each additional half hour on a queue anywhere in New York City. Personally I have all the time in the world to wait in lines at this point in my life, but for others who don't? Such a genius idea. This man is gonna do so well.

Tip - Workout Clothes

Incase you have any qualms about buying from Lululemon, please realize that there are billions of other places to get less expensive, good quality yoga pants. I can't get over how gorgeous these Nike ones ($65) are.

Victoria's Secret and The Gap have a pretty sweet selection, too. Especially the sports tank tops at Victoria's Secret - they last you YEARS, it's weird/great. If I were you, I'd stay away from the super-cheap workout clothes from places like Old Navy and H&M since they wear out pretty quickly. 

Jose Gonzalez - Stay Alive

I can't believe I didn't notice how good this song was when it played during the credits of The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Thankfully my brother Robbie mentioned how great it was, otherwise where would I be? WHERE WOULD I BE WITHOUT THIS SONG? So nice. 

My Life - Iris DeMent

Iris DeMent My Life

I really only listen to this song in three instances:

1. When I want to induce sadness and tears. 
2. When I'm missing my mom in Canada.
3. When I'm miss Wednesday nights with my brother watching Dawson's Creek on The WB.

Stamp Your Face

If I ever stop using my wax sealer when mailing anything out, I'm gonna stamp my face all OVER your birthday cards. Oh God... just thought of this: using this instead of signing your name? You could just stamp this? Amazing. That's it, I'm buying this now. I was only going to tell you about it here, but it seems weird for me NOT to buy one for myself. Expect this face soon in any mailings I send you. You know who you are.

SUCH a good idea. Only $65. Maybe that seems expensive but you'll have it for life, so... I'm sorry, but it's totally worth it. Click on either photo to buy one yourself.

e.l.f. Lip Exfoliator

This is the best thing I've tried at e.l.f. thus far. I can definitely see why so many people are loyal to this little guy. I don't wear lipstick often, but I still use this every morning and night. I'm not sure if this is supposed to happen, but little bits of the exfoliator come off the stick and onto your lips in a way that makes it feel like it's really working and doing something. And if you use this exfoliator and then follow with some peppermint extract? You're going to feel indestructible. Please try that combination now.

And if you're into any kind of plumping lip agent/gloss/shine/whatever... you need to stop using that nonsense immediately and bring out the real, natural plump that's already in your lips. I swear to God it's there. Exfoliating them brings out that plump. Look it up.

This seems like a lot of lip maintenance, I know. But I can't tell you what a difference you'll see.

I'm not even going to dwell on the fact that this is only $3. You have no excuse to not get this.

Final Scene in Six Feet Under

Note: If you didn't watch the series Six Feet Under, you will definitely not give a guff about the following post. And if you intend on ever watching the show, please don't read on.

This is definitely one of my favourites. Favourite what exactly? I don't know... moments in my life, I guess? Yeah, it was just a television show, I get that. But still. Is it sad that a scene from an HBO show is something I consider a "moment in my life"? Nope. Sorry, bud. It ain't sad, I assure you. You can file this video in the category of Surefire Things That Will Always Make Liz Cry. There are many things in that category, but this is definitely in the top three.
