Bonjour my little golden internet tater tots! EWWIRU is BACK and wackier than ever! But it’s also going to be a little bit shorter than ever because based on the (non) feedback I got from two weeks ago (very good reason for missing last week), I decided that people probably don’t care much about my…

No. Seriously. What Is Seriously In Your Bag?
I’m sure you have seen this post idea before or at the very least you have played “pull out the weirdest thing in your purse right now” as a bar game with your girlfriends. (Side note: Do not try to play that game with my friend Basia. You will not win.) You know what it…

Emily’s Wacky Wednesday Internets Round-Up
I don’t know about you guys, but I am always trying to find more ways to get Becky to like me. That’s why I invented (what I can hopefully keep up as) a weekly series where I basically take all the links of the stuff I IM to Becky to keep her full time employed…
