Alternate-side parking is the bane of my existence. Do you know how expensive parking tickets are? Don’t even get me started on the cheddar it takes to get your car out of the impound lot. Not that I have to do that much, Rocco. Maybe you shouldn’t read this one. Ahem.
Alternate-side parking is always ruining my [...]

If you’re suffering from a wee bit of nausea and vertigo, there are two activities you should probably avoid. The first? Boats. Especially if they are on the Hudson river on a windy day. The second? The upper decks of Yankee Stadium.
Any guesses as to how I spent the last two days?
No, I did not sign [...]

Are other people driven to tackle home improvement projects anytime there’s a national holiday? It’s President’s Day, you say? Well then let’s repaint the bathroom! You’re hosting a Memorial Day barbecue, eh? Sorry, I can’t attend. I’ve got plans to tear apart a hutch and use the scrap wood to build a desk. So, as per [...]

You see, I’m pretty sure I live in Rome. Fine, to be perfectly fair, I [...]

So as of this morning, my apartment is off the market. Uncle. The end. Stick a fork in me. I’m singing and everything.
With [...]

I had dinner with two of my three brothers last night. I thought for sure I’d have a fantastic blog this morning because those fuckers are hysterical, right? RIGHT?
Denied. It’s like they’re TRYING to thwart my aspirations to have one single coherent and mildly amusing post this week.
Fuckers.
I don’t think they said two words the whole [...]

I’m a little melancholy today. Don’t panic, I promise this isn’t all doom and gloom. There’s plenty of obscenities, ass smacking, unicorns, bunnies, and gangsta rap if you just stick with me to the end. It’s just been a funny week so I’m having trouble focusing.
One of my favorite people on earth had a little setback [...]

I saw a whole mess of moving vans in Hoboken over the weekend, so it must be the beginning of yet another month. You know what that means? Time to troll through my analytics and find all the disturbing searches that led people to my bizarre little Buggin World!
This can not end well.

Mom: So are you all ready for this afternoon?
Me: Yup. The litter is scooped. The floors are spotless. The kitchen canisters are in the oven. I’m ready to go.
Yes, the kettle is in there, too.
Mom: The canisters are in the oven? Why does that sound familiar?
Me: Didn’t you do that once? Then you forgot they [...]
