I think twitter may be bad for me. Its been all abuzz with news from Iran for a week or so. I've tried to stay out of this issue for a few reasons:

Aside from tweeting like a twelve year old troll (almost all in caps, completely ignorant of twitter practices) today she made it her personal mission to shut down the fake ( Read more... )

I eat breakfast at work because I don't really want to eat breakfast at 0600 hours. So I bring my breakfast in with me and eat it at my desk. I tend to just use the same spoon every day. A spoon that had originally come from the office kitchen that I just keep at my desk and wash every now and then. Last week I got into work and found my spoon ( Read more... )
