On the Side

thought you should know...

  • Now, I'm no neat freak but I do feel strongly about proper hygiene. So this morning while having a lively banter with my coworkers it was brought up that one of them spotted Cynthia Nixon (Miranda from Sex and the City) at Tequila Sunrise (corner of Steinway and Northern Blvd. Read on...
  • My darlings, I have to apologize for the silence here yesterday. We were too busy having tickle fights and drinking banana daiquiris. And I think we fell into a non-leap year worm hole, bending the fabric of space an time. Not to worry, all is well at GS Central. Now, Read on...

Losing My Religion

Posted by Brandy on: April 24th, 2007

I stopped believing in God when I was 8. I never told my family. I still went to church and Sunday School every week. Where I come from Jesus is pretty much the only option. Church is a big part of life. Religion is the backbone of my family's social [...]

Welcome To My Baggage

Posted by Brandy on: April 17th, 2007

My post today is lighthearted and fun but I wanted to say that my heart goes out to everyone at Virginia Tech. It's an awful, awful tragedy and my thoughts are with them. Now for an awkward transition into my blog for today. She keyed your car and cloroxed all your clothes. [...]

Just kickin’ it in ‘93

Posted by Brandy on: April 10th, 2007

Peasant blouses, suede vests, sleeveless blue jean shirts, and relaxed fit jeans that came, at minimum, to just above ones belly button I was 12 years old, my favorite outfit was a flower-print slip dress paired with a blue jean vest and burgandy tights. YM was my bible, its quizzes and [...]

Mine.

Posted by Brandy on: April 3rd, 2007

If I was a heroine in a Greek tragedy my tragic flaw would be my selfishness. My mother has always believed that she is the sun that the universe revolves around so naturally she raised my brother and I as two spoiled little brats. We never had to share. He [...]

When To Break Up.

Posted by Brandy on: March 27th, 2007

It's always nice to hear stories about other people's mistakes. Right? Once I was dating this guy and I decided to surprise him one night. I put on a sexy little black corset and thigh-hi stockings with garters, and heels. I covered myself up with a long trench coat and headed [...]

A Doctor’s Visit

Posted by Brandy on: March 20th, 2007

Once upon a time, I was 23 years old and I got my first real job in New York City. With this job, I received the best thing a boss can give an employee--company paid health insurance. Having not been to a doctor in months because of my lack of medial [...]

From Brandy to Hipsters everywhere, with love

Posted by Brandy on: March 14th, 2007

First off--it's BEAUTIFUL outside in New York City right now. I may have gotten a little too excited with my outfit choice for work today seeing as that it is still March and not July. And now for my post: There's not much I don't like. I can't stand the cold but [...]

Good Roommates

Posted by Brandy on: March 6th, 2007

Please excuse the hideousness of the picture. It's not a flattering pic of either of us but I do feel it captures the essence of our friendship. We are the girls who show up at parties immediately looking for the free wine and cheese. My roommate and I met three years [...]

The Worst Internet Date EVER.

Posted by Brandy on: February 27th, 2007

Go ahead and admit it. You've gone on an internet date or two. Whether you met the guy on Nerve or Myspace or Craigslist or what-ever. We've all got that little skeleton in our closet and it's time for me to take mine out and give it a little air. I [...]

The Fat Mirror

Posted by Brandy on: February 20th, 2007

I pull on my favorite butt hugging jeans and revel in my thinness. Top it off with a completely precious cleavage baring tank top that makes my medium b-cup boobs into lovely 36-C beauties and I am feeling great about myself. God Brandy, you're SO cute. Then I look into the [...]

I love you Chris Brown

Posted by Brandy on: February 13th, 2007

Chris Brown, I think I kind of love you. I know, I know--you're barely 16. I could be your a lot older sister. But I'm not. I'm a 25 year old red blooded American woman and when I saw your moves on the Grammys this past Sunday, I died and [...]

Have you seen this girl?

Posted by Brandy on: February 6th, 2007

Katie Arnold was my best friend in 5th grade. I actually met her in 4th grade when we were both the new kids. I was a complete bitch to her on the playground. I used to roll "Mean Girls" style but came out of that little phase around 7th grade. [...]

Ex thoughts

Posted by Brandy on: January 30th, 2007

The love of your life. The one you thought you could never live without. Until he broke up with you and sent you into a three month long depression from which you never fully bounced back. And even though you've been over for more than two years, the sound of [...]

Behind Closed Doors

Posted by Brandy on: January 23rd, 2007

I wrote this a few months back for a magazine I used to contribute to but I never turned it in and I don't remember why not. I was going to read this at the Smut show last night but my other piece was too long. So I'm posting it [...]

Ode to My New Phone

Posted by Brandy on: January 16th, 2007

Hello Sidekick. I love you. And I want to thank you for coming into my life. Fuck the Blackberry Pearl. You, Sidekick, you are the one that I want. I love that you are futuristic and modern. I love that you say aloud to me in your girl computer voice, "new message" [...]

Shopping Fast

Posted by Brandy on: January 9th, 2007

I LOVE TO SHOP FOR CHEAP. The clearance rack is my favorite part of any store. My favorite phrase? "50% off the already reduced redline price" (Urban Outfitters is the BEST about this) It doesn't matter the store or what it sells. If stuff is on sale for cheap, I will buy [...]

A Myspace Poem

Posted by Brandy on: January 2nd, 2007

I am a little addicted to Myspace. I know, I know. I'm 25 NOT 16. But for me the site serves as a "Where are they now" kind of updater and I love this. I love getting friend requests by people I barely knew in high school, all of whom [...]

Christmas Quotes

Posted by Brandy on: December 26th, 2006

I am in Georgia for Christmas. A week at my dad's house with a full fridge, a car for me to drive outside, CABLE IN EVERY ROOM..... And relatives who say hilariously inappropriate things to me. I should preface this by saying that I am the odd one out in my family. [...]

Planned Parenthood

Posted by Brandy on: December 19th, 2006

The Christmas season has got me thinking about babies. I have two little precious nieces and I love buying them clothes. So I've been in a lot of little kids shops this past weekend and those places are chock full of babies. I love babies. Actually, let me correct myself. [...]

I used to love him

Posted by Brandy on: December 12th, 2006

Dear Edward Furlong, I first saw you when I was 10. My dad rented Terminator 2 and I came in towards the middle to have a watch. And there you were in all your 14-year-old glory. I loved you from the moment I saw you. I truly thought I'd never love [...]
