Mary Rambin, branding expert consultant and writer, has been working hard. Between phone calls and googling she barely has time to hit the gym for 90 minutes a day. Luckily, her MacBook died yesterday, forcing her to get some much needed relaxation: Life is really nice when the computer is broken, the tv is off, and you can take a second to soak in your favorite things. If the weight of the world is lifted, even if only for a minute, I am thankful to have that time of peace. I never take it for granted Isn't that nice? She...

Midwest Messica, love child of Mary Poppins and Jesse James, is sort of confusing us on exactly WHAT it is she's doing all day. She has said something about a shared workspace situation, but her latest post implies she has some sort of co-workers: I don’t really have a problem with wearing things I like over and over again, but this whole taking-a-photo-everyday-for-three-and-a-half-years thing always makes me want the next day to look a little different.  Documenting something like this each day has definitely molded my choices, both with what I buy and what I put on each day. So...

Michael "Puppy Hater" Arrington, asshole, has built an empire on the backs of the two most talented writers in the world: Sarah Lacy and Paultatohead Carr. Now that AOL has handed him the keys to Scrooge McDuck's safe, Arrington splits his time evenly between designing new loungewear for his slave, and being his usual arrogant self. Behold as the great Arrington lays down the law to yahoo.com: attention to detail matters. First link ink post is broken. This is Yahoo's corporate blog.http://ycorpblog.com/2010/10/26/yahoomailbeta/about 6 hours ago via web I will now let those of you with spellcheck skills explain to Mickey...

Poundcake and Prostitute, author/editrixes of the sensationally popular tumblr circle jerk in print form, Coming & Crying, are not going to shut up about this book until they unload them all: Back in—gulp—FEBRUARY we were in the middle of Kickstartering and raising money and had little to no idea of the realities of the post office, or, to be fair, the realities of how wonderful making a book and talking to you would be. But back in February as we were asking you for money we felt a little weird about it, when we thought about it too much. What we wanted...

Meghan McCain, bestselling author, continues to travel around the country to pimp out her Costco book. Of course she can't just throw her crap in a backpack like us regular poors. A highly regarded writer like Megatits requires a tasteful, classic suitcase to put her alleged size 12 jeans in: packing for another week on the road - like my new very serious, 26 year old writer suitcase? ;-) http://yfrog.com/f5ubbjabout 11 hours ago via Yfrog Is that a joke? Anyway, Megatits had her 26th birthday Saturday. This momentous occasion caused the Meggalo to expound on her life philosophy: people keep asking me...

Midwest Messica has been OMG SO HAPPY off in Bloomington IN for two weeks now. While she somehow managed to update her name and marital status within seconds of getting that ring, she mysteriously has yet to update her location info on her various internets: From her tumblr: And her twitter: Does anyone find this weird? Just me?

Mary Rambin, humble, went to church yesterday where she discovered she is full of faults, and human. She often finds quotes from the bible help her articulate her thoughts: You may think that the situations is hopeless, but God gives us grace when we turn away from our own interests. James 4:6 Even when quoting the Holy Book she can't manage to use grammar and spellcheck. But who cares; saying 'sup' to the Lord is just something to get done so she can get to her earthly reward: Yes, Mare Mare has been working so hard, she deserves another vacation....

Megatits McCain, who is losing weight btw, is totally in the dark about her alleged reality show.

And it just wouldn't be a day ending in day if Jessica Schroeder Quirk didn't make us roll our eyes. Apparently Messica has acquired "new co-working space in B-town" and yesterday she skipped her morning mani/pedi to go prance around a parking lot: I felt like Monday was the first day of school and I was so excited to set my alarm, plan out an outfit and get up early to get ready. I just really miss having a routine and working with other people every day. Ya know that feeling? I love the start of new things, being in...

Moving along, seems I am not the only one phoning it in today. Midwest Messica now considers a hoodie and a french twist fashion blog worthy. On the other hand she does look about 12 lbs thinner than she did in that geedee striped incident. Maybe some free Oscar would help her get back on the fashion track. Get that ass kiss on girl!

Julia Allison, what does she do again?, had a fit so hard even our favourite delicious baked good noticed. Apparently someone named Alex Balk has a tumblr, and this fantastic fact is worthy of some kind of hysterics among the tumblr whores. From Julia's tumblr business website: Oh man. ALEX BALK has a TUMBLR. ALEX BALK!!!!!!!!  PUT ME ON YOUR TUMBLR!!!!!!!!!!!! Furthermore, I would like to take credit for what is SURE to be a domino-effect of the dregs of Manhattan media all jumping on Tumblr’s boat together, like little esoteric rats. Sigh.  First Doree, now Alex.  Who’s next, Jeff Bercovici?  Rachel...

Jordan Reid Berkow Strauch, married, has a lot of readers! They love and trust her to help them with problems, and email her all kinds of questions. Today, Jordan helps a reader find a place to live: Hi Jordan, First off, I love your blog! I was wondering if you had any apartment-search tips. My boyfriend and I are looking for a place in Brooklyn and keep hitting dead ends. We are following Craigslist, but I was wondering if you knew any other services or sites..... Excellent question, reader! As you know, Jordumbo is an expert on Brooklyn. Real Estate...

Mary Rambin, success at life, apparently received this email and it totally didn't bother her. You know how we know? Because she posted it to her tumblr, along with a scathing comeback that PROVES it did not bother her at all: Nice. Fortunately I’m not threatened but only proud of my sister’s accomplishments (and mine own too!). But seriously, what kind of person stops their day to attempt to ruin someone else’s? Who even has time for that? It’s just sad. Other things Mary so does not care about and is, in fact, happy about not having: a fashion week...

Jessica Schroeder Quirk, bag of internet uselessness, continues to try to talk herself into being SO SO HAPPY about leaving Brooklyn, despite the fact that she still has not changed her twitter or tumblr locations to reflect her move to Indiana: I’m so happy and excited to be here. It’s a beautiful time of year, the weather has been gorgeous and we’re making lots of new friends. That's the gushing final sentence of today's post, featuring some Diana Vreeland wallpaper dress that she wore while "Working in downtown Bloomington, Homecoming Parade Party". Working. Uh..was Ann Taylor Loft hiring or something?...

Megatits McCain, future wife of a lift chair bound tobacco farmer in a life story that could have been written by D. H. Lawrence, is running out of steam with her Palin bashing. So She Who Never Reads Here has decided to go after the chick in the news now: "My problem is that, no matter what, Christine O'Donnell is making a mockery of running for public office," McCain said on Sunday. "She has no real history, no real success in any kind of business." Really, princess? Sit down for a moment. Let's go over YOUR credentials, shall we? Wait,...

Jessica Schroeder is now officially Midwest Mess once more. She is still frantically trying to convince herself she is thrilled to be back in Fashioncentral IN: Despite my real life outfit actually felt pretty great for our double date out in Btown. I’m really falling in love (again*) with this little town. I’m checking out office space in town to set up shop and can’t wait to get back into the groove.  This morning I unpacked most of my closet and I’m pumped.  And on the moving note - I promise this will be the last post referencing it.  I can’t...

Mary Rambin, beggar blogger, is ready to relaunch More Than Mary. It appears Mary is going to try and start her own group blog, and needs some help: As the launch of the new MTM draws closer (I promise, we’re in programming mode now), I’m still looking for a few contributors. Most notably - A TRAINER! After quite a struggle, Kelley has finally been blessed and is pregnant with her first baby.  YAY! We’re all very excited for her.  Although, unfortunately she’s having to cut back on some of her work, which would include writing for MTM. So, if you...

Midwest Messica posted her farewell to Brooklyn outfit post today. And what did Messica choose as her backdrop? The Park Slope Armory, home to the hated welfare shelter ladies: And a bit on the background - this ‘castle’ is the Park Slope Armory (and also houses the YMCA!) and was the view from my office window. I never wanted to take photos in front of such a landmark for safety reasons, but now that I’m up and gone, I thought it would be a nice way to remember my old neighborhood. She also titled the post "Be My Neighbor." She's...

Meghan McCain, famous for some reason, is now happily back in AZ spending her six figure book advance and reminding us that she is THE number one spokeslady for size acceptance. My birthday - October 23rd is national "Love Your Body Day" - love it! A little serendipitous, no? about 8 hours ago via web Is it just me or does anyone else find it funny that Megatits' birthday falls on the national day celebrating self-adoration? Just me? Ok.
