A great man once told me that sometimes you just need to know when to cut your losses, however extensive they may be. I’m fairly certain that this is one of those times. I’m tired of declining incredible projects to try to conclude one that I doubt will ever end…

My friends on Facebook often take advantage of the Facebook Platform and add a lot of the optional (cr)applications. This horoscope hails from one such (cr)application… I’ve left the sporadic exclamation points and capitalization in For Your Enjoyment! PISCES - The Partner for Life Caring and kind. Smart. Center of attention. Messy and irresponsible at times! Smart but lazy. High...
Simko: FYI: I got a call at 2am telling me how much I suck for not being in Nassau so you can save that speech...
Alexander: you do but I am not going to give it - I will just give you my liver after they have to remove it and let you understand how much fun we were having

Munson: You know what always impresses me about this room?
Simko: That I've painted the walls neon green?
Munson: Close but no. It's the fact that you have this uncanny ability to accessorize with items complimenting a color that I'd imagine to be the same as Kermit's balls.
Simko: ...

My sister is going to be thrilled that both things she uses multiple times a day are finally joining forces…
I had a ‘business meeting’ with my father today about the new website he is launching in early 2008. We then created a system for strengthening organization within my (usually chaotic) design career - which I plan to implement tomorrow. It’s really nice to have a pair of parents who are so supportive and willing to surrender time for helping me almost whenever and however I need...
Javier-Borja: What are your plans for NYE? I'm conditioning my hair.
Simko: Having postponed my trip to the islands for reasons I don't even want to begin explaining I am thinking Chinese food is a serious option...
Javier-Borja: I would wear couture to that event
Simko: You think I'm kidding. Me stepping foot in a club in Manhattan ain't happening. Seriously.
Javier-Borja: No, I'm definitely on the same wave length as you. Staying in and making it a Blockbuster night while making outlandish resolutions with you is my idea of a solid party - one I would RSVP to and even dress appropriately for.
Simko: Date confirmed.
Matt Oliver fled Manhattan again and I am too tired today to write something remotely clever - so I decided to copy and paste his last entry. I’m not sure there is actually any correlation but, ironically, when last I heard from him (earlier today) he was in India: but i’m not depressed. could a depressed person come up with the best business idea ever? that’s what i...
I couldn’t make it to Rachelle’s Birthday party last night. I’m officially the worst friend ever and very unsure of how I am going to making this up to her in the near future…
“Yeah - I’m way in love with her dad.”
– Krystal Simpson
West: They kind made a movie out of you recently - Dane Cook was the guy who everyone found their true love after sleeping with him
Simko: Ummm...???
West: Except it has to do with death and not marriage but you get the point
Simko: Right... Except that I haven't slept with anyone involved in any of this and no one has found true love
Have you ever had one of those nights where you answer the phone at 1am and somehow suddenly gain (unexpected) custody of a dog (that you’ve never met before) because of it? This game is sort of fun… But mostly just because I love dogs and this one is especially cute. The only problem is - I feel oddly as though I am cheating on Jelly.
Simko: Should I ask so that you can answer in code?
Wintzen: Yes
Simko: Say "yes" if it's going well - and "no" if it's going terribly
Wintzen: TERRIBLY!

As usual, US Air struggles with (competently) improving any and everything.

When I signed my first lease in Manhattan, I had the pleasure of sharing a gorgeous building with Amy Sedaris on Christopher Street. She, much like her brother David, has always intrigued me. I recently came across this fun fact about her holiday spirit via Katie Richardson…
Amy really wanted some Vicodin one Christmas Eve. Upon walking out of her apartment on a search...
Dad: You know why I don't like cauliflower? It feels like you're eating air. It's a waste of time and taste.
Mom: There is no cauliflower at this meal. Do you see cauliflower?!
Dad: Nope... (smiles)
Simko: I need sleep. I'm officially exhausted and losing my mind...
Alexa: Oh fun! Are we sure?
Simko: I just looked down at all of the salt on the ground and actually thought to myself "wow - New Yorkers really do eat a lot of pretzels"
Alexa: Ahaha Funny
Simko: It was actually snow salt...
Alexa: Clearly. Now go to bed.
I am soverytired but very much looking forward to heading to Connecticut in a few hours…
