Maddie’s first “dance”
3am in Brooklyn. Coming back form the bars and not a single cab in sight. That’s when a garbage truck pulls up, and i think, “why the hell not?”
I somehow convince the garbage man to give me a lift. He wasn’t sold on the idea, that is, until I promised to work for my keep.
Next thing I know I’m hanging off the back of his truck slinging trash bags with deadly accuracy.
Zipped home in 5 mins and cost me nothing. Cross this off my bucket list!
And that Cowboy get-up? Foursquare had our company outing to the Rodeo earlier that night. If you’re ever gonna ride a trash whip - you best be rocking it like a cowboy!
“Triple Trash!”
I’m a pretty frequent Instagram user, uploading about 5 photos per day. I’m trying to capture as much of my daughter’s childhood as I can. Would love for her to one day look back and see years and years of photos.
Here’s the issue. I want Instagram to push photos to my secondary Tumblr blog (the one that’s dedicated to her) NOT my primary blog. Tumblr won’t let me change what the “Primary blog” is - as it defaults to the first blog I set up. Instagram will only push to the Primary account.
Is the only solution to extract my daughter’s Tumblr, and then create an entirely new Tumblr account? If so, does Tumblr have an easy extract and upload content solution? I’m talking about 5 month of content.
thx for your help!
UPDATE: I found 2 solutions: 1 was right under my nose the entire time. each tumblr blog gives you an email address to post to, so under Instagram settings, i would just add the email associated with the right tumblr. Option 2: http://ifttt.com - amazing service that solves almost any issue like this.
It sounds super cute but I promise you, it’s impossible to fall asleep to this. It’s sounding less like a cooing baby and more like a mouse whose limbs are tied to 4 miniature horses walking in different directions - as it’s slowly torn to little mouse pieces.
Christian bought 2 tickets to the National at Beacon Theatre. Got em through Ticketmaster. And randomly, they ended up being dead center, front row. I can honestly say, I will never have seats better than this, ever again. They ended with an acoustic version of “Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks.” Which was so so so awesome. What was not so so so awesome - a dude singing into another dude’s crotch.
*only half the song. sorry!
BECOME A BONE MARROW DONOR PEOPLE.
I posted about this a few weeks ago and just wanted to update.
Amit Gupta has acute leukemia. He needs a bone marrow donor to survive. Unfortunately, South Asians are really unrepresented and his chance of finding a match are low. So I’m encouraging all of you (in particular brown folks) to join the registry. All you do is swab your cheek with the q-tip looking things (as seen above) and send it in. It takes 3 minutes and it can save someone’s life.
Click here to get a kit and swab your cheek.
Amit needs your kit BEFORE November 30th. Seriously, just click and do this. You get a kit in the mail, swab your cheek with some q-tips, and put it in the mail. Done. Couldn’t be easier. If you know any brown people, harass them to do this. Be racist if you need to. (Ok don’t be racist, but encourage them to do it.)
For more info go to: www.amitguptaneedsyou.com.
You should all take 5 minutes to fill this out. Request a kit, and send it back in. You could save a life. For real. Do it.
