Milwaukee Gets Arty in the Third Ward →
altidude:
A nice little slideshow at the New York Times.
I’ll second the rec’ for Cafe Benelux, but would head to Sanford or even Bacchus for dinner before doing Braunie’s Grafito.
- and now I’m hungry!
so...
-about that body found across the street:
WEST ALLIS, Wis.—
Police in a Milwaukee suburb say a man whose skeletal remains were found in a house likely committed suicide. According to the West Allis police department, a handgun was found at the scene and he had a single gunshot wound to the head. Deputy Chief Charles Padgett had said the house was foreclosed upon for failure to pay taxes and...
and in news, across the street...
Police and medical examiners are investigating the death of a person whose skeleton was found Monday in an abandoned house in West Allis.
The West Allis Police Department received a call at 3:12 p.m. Monday about a body in a residence in the 1300 block of S. 58th St., according to a news release.
“The body was located in a state of decomposition to the degree that skeletal remains were...
on monday
Some things:
Um, so the police were all over our block today. Because they found a “badly decomposing body in the abandoned house” directly across the street from us. So there’s that.
The police and local news reporters talked to me, so Jack and I were on tv, thus publicizing what I hope was the single least attractive moment of my life. Post-gym, nothing done to it,...

Today, my boys turned one year old. Hudson celebrated by pooping on the world (and his “birthday boy” outfit. Rude.). Jackson celebrated by throwing most of his dinner on the ground at Noodles and then grumbling all night, probably because he was hungry.
It was pretty awesome and we even spent some time with P. If nothing else, that man has given me these gorgeous children who have...

And lest you be shocked by any grace or restraint that my last post may have shown, please know my internal crazy has not disappointed, because YOU KNOW I called some hoes and called them OUT.
AND I emailed all the others. (right, I said ALL. My husband is no player - he’s a geek, but he WORKED that angle, y’all.)

I had to step back and reming myself that today was only Monday.
A week ago, I was thrilled to see my doctor and proud and excited to tell her that P and I were ready to begin the process of having another baby. I smiled inside, to myself, as I spent a bazillion dollars on the meds at Walgreens. I smiled outwardly, at my husband, as I popped the pills that would make me a total bitch at times,...
Wtf
Please tell me I’m not fucking pp.
Whateve . Nice to know in thehottest here and the hottest guy picks me.
Yay for not dying anone!!
It hurts more, I think, that he’s done this during such a trying time for me. This last year has been a struggle. I’ve gained weight, been pregnant, had babies, lost weight, gained weight, and have all along been thinking of and working for our family. I don’t feel the best about my appearance (I was so hot when we started dating, and now I’m kind of a mess, and he’s...
So…
five+ hourse post-wakeup this morning and everything is changed. wrong.
Apparently P’s also been having a really intimate (but not sexual) relationship with a coworker as well. They have lunch 3 or 4 times a week (he tosses out the lunches I make him each day, and then charges the lunches on a credit card only in his name). They discuss their marriages (she’s divorced, but...
And my world came crashing down.
P has been sexting some ugly, trashy Chili’s waitress (she’s skinny though) for months.
Last night he did it all day at work, all evening when we were playing w/ the boys, all night while we were on the couch beside each other, watching tv, and then for two hours after I went to be (he said he was food-poinsony-sick).
She’s sent him naked...

UHM. The first Drake one is getting me straight up. WORKED. UP.

You guys.
I can’t stop thinking about the poor boys, many now men, who were victimized in all of this.
After reading a couple of articles on the happenings at Penn, I can’t...
umcanyounot:
I rocked these. Always with the multiple shoelaces.
GIRL! I had these in light pink and white - and - AND! I had jeans to match: lightwashed, with a cutout down the outside of each leg and twisted pink/white laces going across. They were so fresh! (and kind of hard to describe) (and also, kind of slutty, in retrospect)
