Yes, I did just delete my last post because it was way too maudlin. I'm feeling better now I actually have some work to do to take my mind off the problem(s). I appreciate the concern, though. Sometimes I just can't believe how things have turned out. But I don't want to be a downer. I certainly don't want to be one of those people who broadcast ( Read more... )

Rumor has it (although it's definitely true) that the O House brunch will now feature a chocolate fountain every week. Way to go, J. Michael Floyd. Just when I thought you couldn't ruin my life any more... I bet they won't have a cute chocolate fountain operator every week, though. We definitely lucked out there.

For whatever reason, I was looking on Facebook at what UGA alumni were doing as a job. One thing led to another, and I ended up on Boston.com looking for a job. Tell me this is not the perfect job:

In Boston
Working as an editor
For WebMD

Because who knows more about WebMD than I do? Awesome! Too bad I haven't graduated yet. Oh well.

The new Killers video is totally bizarre. It's for All These Things That I've Done, so it should be pretty awesome, and it is, in a way. I can't tell what my favorite part is. It's either that they're dressed up as cowboys for no reason, that Brandon Flowers has a shower scene for no reason, or that he rides a donkey for no reason. I think it's ( Read more... )

The Home Run Derby was pretty great last night. That and the spelling bee are the highlights of my summer. The All Star Game is OK, too, but it's not as much fun because everyone only plays for a couple of innings. My bets last night were pretty badly wrong. First I called that David Ortiz would win. That one was probably more wishful thinking. ( Read more... )

This weather is pretty depressing. I slept about 2 hours last night because my parents were not at home and it sounded like my house was going to fall down. I decided that if it was still raining hard at 7, I would not go to work. It was not raining at 7, so I am at work, but now it is raining really hard. I quit ( Read more... )

Oh, Fridays. You know what I really want right now? A cookie dough blast (or whatever they're called) from Sonic. And some pizza. Pizza first, probably. So now I'm counting down the hours until I can go home, get some money, and go to Sonic. T-minus 4 hours ( Read more... )

So I was just sitting at my desk, doing a little work, when the strappy part of my flip flip snapped off. Awesome. I have no idea how I plan to get to the car now, especially if it starts raining. Curse you, Old Navy flip flops. PS - Spray Mount will not fix a snapped flip flop strap ( Read more... )

Have you ever had the awful realization that you used to be way cooler than you are now? I have nothing to do, so I'm reading through my LJ archive. I used to be pretty funny and, dare I say, interesting too. Now I just talk about the same thing all the time, and I talk much more loudly which is pretty annoying. Plus I listen to crappy music. If ( Read more... )

OK, this is the most disturbingly fascinating thing I have ever seen. I can't stop looking at it. I know that means I am probably a terrible person, but it is oddly compelling. I apologize if you look at it and subsequently wish you could erase it from your memory forever. It's kind of been a slow day, so anything will entertain me at this point ( Read more... )
