Friday I snuck out of work a little early, since it was Friday and I could. I got home to find my roomate L moving all of her stuff out of her room and putting it in the basement. You see, L is moving out. We sat in our chairs and had our last Friday night ritual [...]

Showtune-ing

I’ve started to sneeze a lot when I’m at work, or thinking about work, and my conclusion is that I’m allergic to it. Couple that with my love of show tunes, and you have me sitting at my desk and expressing my nasal angst … through song. So here it is, my ode to a work [...]

Remember when I did that 8 mile MS walk? It’s quite probable that you don’t, seeing as how it was 3 months ago. Knowing this, imagine my reaction when my boss comes over to me a few minutes ago with an email in his hand and says, “Is it too late for me to make [...]

The last few days have been pretty cool. Friday night I of course picked up my copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows at midnight-ish at a local book store. It was fun/tiring to stand around with a whole bunch of other fans and share in the HP experience.
I read the first two chapters [...]
YAHOOO!!

Tonight the final Harry Potter book is coming out, and I’m super excited. I’m going to pick up my book at midnight at Borders for their big HP bash, which will be awesome! I am however hoping to avoid the freakish fans who will be dressed up like Harry and his friends and take the [...]

I’ve always been an optimistic, glass half full kind of person. I just feel it’s better to focus on positive things than on the bad. But I fear that I’ve passed from being “optimistic” to “selectively blocking out unpleasant things”. And I’m afraid that once I take off these rose colored blinders I won’t like what I [...]

I’m not very interesting at the moment, and I don’t have anything particularly ground breaking or introspective to say, so why not do a quiz? Because you know you love rock, paper, scissors as much as I do.

Yesterday I had a pretty bad day. It started out (and continued throughout the day) with torn up feet so I couldn’t walk. On my way home I got caught in a big rain storm and of course didn’t have my umbrella and had to walk home in the rain. But even then I was [...]

Bad thing: I wore new shoes that have completely ripped open my pinky toes and I’ve spent the whole day trying to bandage them up so that I can actually walk
Good thing: The somewhat tight shirt that I bought last summer is now too big
Bad thing: I’m stuck at work with torn up feet and [...]
Notes From All Over

To my neighbors – trim your bushes, trees, and other shrub like things that protrude over the sidewalk and make it unwalk-able. I really hate trying to maneuver my way through the hanging gardens of Babylon every time I walk my dog. Especially after it’s been raining and the bushes are all wet, and that one that’s always [...]
