Resolutions.
I like to make resolutions, but I worry about getting too ambitious on January 1st and setting goals that I’ll never accomplish. This past year some of my resolutions were to move, get a kitten, and run a half marathon. I didn’t actually get a kitten, but I did move into an apartment with one, so I’m calling it a win.
I’ve given it a couple weeks of thought and here are my...

Obscure Music Video Halloween Costume Ideas: Part...
Bee puns from Black Eyed Peas “Imma Be”
Mostly I would like to see someone in a bee costume with a cane and a monocle, maybe a top hat (basically a hybrid bee/Mr Peanut). When asked what they are, they would reply “Imma be living that good life.”
Other options:
Bee with a guitar (I’m a bee, rockin’ over that bass treble)
Swarm of bees (I’m a bee,...

Obscure Music Video Halloween Costume Ideas: Group...
Nicki Minaj & co from the Super Bass video.
What you need:
White tank top
Jean shorts
Doc Marten boots
Pink wig with bangs
Matching solid-colored bra & undies
Not gonna lie, I considered doing this for about 30 seconds because I already have bright blue doc marten boots and thighs like Nicki Minaj. Then I came to my senses…but I like to think that there’s a sorority...

Kelly Rowland.
What you need:
Sexy toga diaper
No, but really. Kelly Rowland, I think I actually like you. And you are a pretty lady. Who approved this outfit? In any other color it would be acceptable but this is totally a diaper.

Obscure Music Video Halloween Costume Ideas: Part...
I keep coming up with what (at the moment) seem like fun Halloween costume ideas for me or other people, only to realize a split second later that they’re probably all unrecognizable to anyone who doesn’t spend their entire day watching music videos over and over. Also usually I see something and think “That would be so easy to dress up as!” and then as I think it through I...

But trust me, it was rough. The fact that I only stopped to walk 3 times made me feel like Wonder Woman…oh wait.

The Great Pumpkin Beer Tasting
A few weeks ago, Jaime and decided to try all the pumpkin beer we could get our hands on. We made it through half of the options in one night, but while waiting for night two kept discovering more options. Here is what we found.
1. Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin Ale (8.0% abv) Good, hoppy, dark
2. River Horse Hipp-O-Lantern (8.0 % abv) Hoppy, strong, medium
3. Uinta Punk’n...
