In a world where so much is going wrong, where our government is a failure, bodies are floating throuhg the streets of New Orleans, and so much else is falling apart, it humors me (and saddens me) to see what still seems important to people ( Read more... )

Today I have decided that there is too big of a divide between what I do and what I want to do. For instance, I would love to have a nice big milkshake right now - but I don't - and I won't all because I am trying to lose weight.

So the housewarming party went surprisingly well! My grandparents showed up first and of course my father and his girlfriend showed up next so that was extrememly awkward, but they actually got along. The rest of the party was nice. Lots of food, Fritz cooked an amazing amount. My coworkers and family came- none of our friends showed which kinda ( Read more... )

On a general basis, I have chipmunk cheeks. When I smile, the apples of my cheeks make me look like a chipmunk. This particular morning though, I woke up with what appeared to be a baseball in the left side of my mouth. Of course, being the dedicated worker bee that I am (and hoping to avoid the wrath of my manic depressive boss), I threw on my ( Read more... )
