  • How should I spend my iPhone fund? Pool Table?

     

    Alright, Sir Jobs. You made it impossibly impossible to get an iPhone thus far. I refused to wait in a mall (where the Apple stores are in So Cal) for several hours. (I know that one of your stores was only able to bless 350 people or so a day and many AT&T outlets didn’t even receive stock.) Anyway, I’m putting my iPhone jones on hold for a month.

    So, it seems I got a few hundred bucks to part with. Perhaps I’ll get me a:

  • Alice in Dinnerware

     

    The other day, walking through NYC, my SO was drawn, like a moth to a flame, right into Fishs Eddy. I was momentarily confused why I had lost her a block prior, until I entered the store myself, and discovered that they now have a line of Alice in Wonderland print plates, glasses, and more.

    In case it isn’t clear, the SO is a freak for Alice stuff. That being said, there’s a LOT of Alice in Wonderland stuff out there, so what separates these from the pack? Two things:

    1) Quality of Goods: The whole line is extremely delicately made.

  • One Step Away from Gay

     

    So I moved in with my boyfriend about five months ago and in that time, I've taught him the joys of an organized closet, new rugs, long curtains and good lighting. And then joy of joys, the other day as we were eating dinner, he said to me, "Do you think we should get placemats? To kind of tie in the kitchen design with the rest of the apartment?" I couldn't believe it! Six months ago he didn't even have a decent shower curtain and now he's talking placemats with the best of them.

about the blogger

Wendy Atterberry is a recent transplant to New York City via Chicago. You can often find her at some karaoke dive bar singing her repertoire, which includes "Midnight Train to Georgia," "Daniel," and most recently, "Sweet Dreams." Don't expect her to always hit the right notes. She lives in Manhattan with her boyfriend and two cats, and has a blog like everyone else.

Alex Zalben is a writer living in New York City. He's written for McSweeney's, Modern Humorist and PulpSecret.com. As one-fifth of the sketch comedy group Elephant Larry, he has been written up in the New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and pretty much every other major publication. Their blog was named one of PC Magazine's Top Blogs for 2007, and they recently won an ECNY Award for their viral short, "Minesweeper: The Movie." Alex did not know love until he bought his first Mac.

Steph Auteri is a freelance writer and proofreader who has been published in Publishers Weekly, New York Press, Playgirl, and other bastions of fine writing. She maintains a professional site https://www.stephiswrite.com, and also blogs about freelancing over at Freelancedom. You can keep up on her day-to-day by visiting her Twitter page.

Diana Vilibert is a freelance writer, among other things. Born in Lithuania, she now lives in New Jersey, where she doesn't have to walk to work ten miles in the snow, barefoot, uphill both ways. Diana cannot afford most of the products she writes about because she buys too many pairs of heels to make up for her shoeless childhood. She's written for MarieClaire.com, Janemag.com, and CosmoGIRL!.
