WO: Weekly Obsessions
I don’t know if it’s possible to put in any more hours than I have the past few weeks. Between my day job, freelance and getting the apartment in shape, I am le tired. Me, me, me. Wah, wah, wah.
Let’s make this quick, then, shall we?:
- Subway Time: If you’re like me and perpetually late, then this little app is a gem from the fickle MTA gods. Do you need to book it or can you take a Sunday stroll? Check how long you have to make your next train; available for select lines.
- My Life (So Far) Without a Date: It seems like everyone in my generation is happily coupled up, well on their way to marriage and 2.3 perfect kids. This piece from Refinery 29 excerpts Kate Heaney’s novel that reassures us solo riders that — hey, we’re pretty great (and normal).
- Cascabel Taqueria: Unlimited mimosas, spicy margaritas and other libations + tasty Mexican food + walking distance from my apartment = the perfect brunch. The Benedict dishes are served on cornbread. Need I say more?
- “Counting Stars” – OneRepublic: I really, really didn’t want to like this song. And while it still doesn’t make me want to buy a car or whatever other product it’s selling for the millionth time, I have to admit: I’m a fan.

I love your posts! Always so helpful and entertaining. I am def trying #s 1-3, and I somehow kinda like the song too (and he’s gotten kinda hot). Shhh….I won’t tell if you don’t! However, pretty sure they sort of ripped off Foals’ AMAZING video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJ_PMvjmC6M In other news, I miss you! Can we make for real plans please?
Why am I not surprised you knew of a better (ORIGINAL) music video? Amazing.
So good seeing you yesterday — let’s make it a habit!
Can’t wait to try Cacabel Taqueria!
Oops, Cascabel!
