I am five pounds heavier, very tired, and extremely happy. Here are some of the best pictures from our trip. This is the giant stack of magazines I read by the pool. This is the view from under my umbrella. They have this thing called SUNSHINE there and it creates shadows. We stayed at the brand-new, [...] ACT I SCENE I A girl has just finished 30 crunches. She is lying on the living room floor, looking very near to death. Her husband is sitting on the couch, minding his own business. ALISON NATHAN ALISON In June, I gave this particular summer a very special name. Want to hear it? It’s catchy! The Summer of Our Discontent Told you! Between finishing my work-in-progress and squeezing in, I don’t know, A COLLEGE-LEVEL STATISTICS CLASS, I realized pretty quickly that our summer was going to be, well, a bummer. Nathan’s schedule has been equally [...] As you guys know, I was super nervous about my Maid of Honor speech. Specifically, I was worried about crying through the whole thing.

Our trip to New York was amazing as per usual but there was one SPECIFIC event that put this visit over the top. Okay, wait. First, let’s make a pact. Can you promise me that if you go to NYC in the next five years that you will try the pizza at Lucali? Because you need [...] I had planned on turning this here blog into a photo love letter to New York City last week, but on the first night, I discovered my new camera and my work laptop do not play nicely together. The laptop kept SWEARING there were no pictures on the camera and the camera was like, Really?! So [...] Another birthday just came and went, marking 32 years on this earth for me. An interesting side note about me is that I neither dread nor get too worked up about birthdays and typically treat them as only slightly more exciting than Free Bagel Wednesdays at work.

 Alison Presley lives in San Francisco with her husband Nathan Bransford. She's locked in an unhealthy relationship with her work-in-progress (a novel).
