[The Daily Humpus! 17] End of April Edition!

I bring you...
The Humpus! *fanfare* End of April Edition.
Hemhem. Here we go.
So last week it was lady gaga lyric day and I
didn’t know until I
went to my fav gaga site.
I
went to fuckyeah! because a colleague was looking for a picture to put
in a
sociology book of a “chart topper” (Gaga OBVS) and she wanted
a shot of Gaga performing and basically everything you can find she
usually
pantsless ,
topless, pantless and topless, wearing a mask, on fire, or has measles .
For
the record she is also pantsless in the measles shot. I’d never
seen the measles shot before—fuckin terrifying. also looking at those telephone screenshots...she's scary thin.
That reminds me (terrifying images, that is) that there are some books
in the
office (I work in academic publishing; it’s ridiculous) where we have
editors and editorial coordinators and interns ON THE COVERS. One of
our
marketing managers looks about 18…it works. Lesson—academic
publishing professionals are good lookin. Lesson #2...we are also
resourceful and cheap.
Example of ridiculousness of job: Back in January there was a video of
our sales
team lipsyncing to the GLEE version of Journey’s Don’t Stop Believing. It was apparently played not just at the meeting but also on the “what’s going on
in the hotel” type channel in the hotel where my company had our sales meeting
held in January. I didn't go to this meeting. I went to Vegas
instead. But I still got to see the video at a town hall.
Kill.
Me.
In other news from last week: I wrote a good story for a north Brooklyn
paper. At least, I think it was good. I was sooo nervous about it! But
the guy I interviewed was super nice and friendly and had a good story.
I’ma link you to it when it comes out.
I miss bein a lil reporter.
Where would you pitch a cool story about shopping for wine w/ a wine
celebrity
(NOT GARY VAYNERCOCK)? Local to Brooklyn/NYC. Food focus not necessary but would
be cool.
I was thinking Edible Brooklyn…?
We signED our lease yesterday last Thursday. Fuckin. Finally.
(see? Update from last week’s draft) Our rent was $50 cheaper per
month than we had expected. We promptly spent that $50 on margaritas.
Moving in with someone is bigger than getting married. However you
don’t get to register for presents.
Fuck that shit. I want a red kitchen aid upright blender please
Nesting. It’s funtimes.
OK enough of the blah blah stuff on the internet now!
