December 2008
Thought for the day:

Sometimes when Ella has a particularly stinky, well, poop in the morning, I feel like I can smell it all day. Maybe the smell gets stuck to my nose hairs or something.
Note: I don’t intentionally smell it, sometimes it’s just THAT bad. Or I’m standing down wind.
I was just talking about this yesterday. When I left BR, I hugged my dad which made him fart (if you knew my family,...

PWK: I feel like we should see a broadway show this week. Bree: Really? That sounds good. Yeah. PWK: Just hit up that discount ticket place and we can see something for like twenty bucks right? Bree: Yeah. Well, more like thirty, thirty five, forty, um, forty five dollars. PWK: Oh. You have to pay cash, right? Bree: No, now you can use credit cards. PWK: Great. That’s fine then,...

Lazy Christmas days
I drove around with my dad today. I dropped my car off at the shop to get the brakes fixed, and it will cost me about $350. I love being grown up. /sar
Then we had received some mail that was intended for our former neighbor (who hasn’t lived next door for about 8 years since her husband passed away) so we decided it would be a nice excuse to go visit her in her apartment. Along the way I...

My friend’s company did this. He is James (Creative) - keep clicking “More heads” until you see his spiky hair self.

The medical cost of obesity in this country is almost $80 billion/year. If you consider just how many of those people are poor and either uninsured or receive government aid for healthcare, you can begin to see how the financial burden of health problems related to obesity and to poor diet generally cost the government and the American people. Encouraging healthier...

I really enjoy that you can put a period anywhere in your gmail username and still receive mail. It helps me trick our software when testing so it thinks it’s a new email each time.
fakeemail@gmail.com, fake.email@gmail.com, f.a.k.e.e.m.a.i.l@gmail.com … I could go on forever!
(note: I didn’t put my real email above for fear of robots. I haven’t purchased robot insurance...
Uhm..
I just realized that I eat ridiculously fast. If you are my friend and you notice this, please tell me “Slow down there, tiger!”

Does anyone else have problems using Google Chrome with Tumblr?

This is where I will be spending my New Years….and no it’s not a wedding.
I know, I shouldn't watch them at all, but...
Lacey: I forgot to mention that I FUCKING HATE their "intro tune" for TMIWeekly
Lacey: it almost makes them unwatchable for me
Erin: it's trying to be sex and the city to me
Lacey: it's such a knock off of sex and the city
Raise up
On Friday, my boss called me into his office and asked me to shut the door. He then proceeded to give me my 90 day review which was the best review ever. I usually expect reviews to have some minor bad points just so they can tell you to work on those for the next review, but there was none of that. I think he even mentioned “words can’t describe how great you are doing” which...
WatchChristmas Party from last week
“I like your haircut even though I forgot to “like” it on Tumblr.”
– txt message from Erin
It only counts if you ‘like’ it on tumblr.
Screenshots
I thought I had seen it all… I have received screenshots for troubleshooting in almost every program you can do so (MS Word, Paint, even Powerpoint), but today someone actually pasted their screenshot errors into an Excel spreadsheet. FTW!
