Is it wrong that when I watch TV I get mad at people who aren’t dressed for the weather? I am watching One Life to Live (Pennsylvania) and lots of them are wearing jeans. I haven’t worn long pants in 5 weeks. What are they thinking? The only thing that is worse is the girls [...]

Small town living

I love living in a small town. T and I just went to the grocery store. I walked over to meet him as he came home from work. I took my iPod, cell phone and sunglasses. We shopped. As we got to the checkout I realized we were buying alcohol for an upcoming event. Remember [...]

Duh!

I just read this at Ms. Whatsit. Hey kids! Bummed out ’cause Daddy won’t let you pierce your bellybutton? Mad at Mom ’cause she won’t sign the consent for a tattoo? Not to worry. There are other ways to set yourself apart from the others. Take do-it-yourself branding, for example. It was during a slumber [...]

June 19th, 2007 · 1 Comment

Summer officially starts for me tomorrow. I have made a list of things I have to do this summer. It is a very long list, but some are easy things like doctors appointments that are already made.

Misread

June 8th, 2007 · No Comments

I like to read the IMDb trivia about movies. That’s how I found out that Reese Witherspoon‘s character name in Election is Flick because of the way it looks in all caps FLICK. I noticed this phenomenon with my sister’s name as well LISA (looks like USA to me). But this illusion was brought home [...]
