So I went to Milio's (same as Jimmy John's) to grab some food tonight and while I'm waiting in line I glance at the cashier and I'll be damned if she didn't look exactly like my friend Tiffany who passed away last spring.  I almost had a freakin' heart attack.  And I seriously had to do a double-take.  My god, I can't even explain the feeling I had ( Read more... )

Just got back from the good ol' family vacation about 4 hours ago....longest road trip EVER.  Even when we were little and drove everywhere, I don't remember driving as much as we just did this last week.  Ricockulous ( Read more... )

Yes, folks, it's another Big 10 football weekend here in the IC....who's ready for some big-ass turkey legs?!  The stadium renovation is finally finished and it looks amazing...now if only I had a seat in the luxury boxes.  How stupid is it that they'll sell alcohol in the $50,000/year luxury boxes but not in the rest of the stadium?  I should sue ( Read more... )

I have 2 days left at Pearson...but technically only 1 since Friday will be spent taking a 90-minute lunch and basically chatting with everyone.  It really kinda hit me this week.  I got back into the office on Tuesday and every time I run into someone they're like, "Don't leave me!"  One of the artists there randomly made me a quick computer ( Read more... )

.....when the weekends started on a Thursday since I had no Friday classes.  This weekend is gonna be FAB-U-LOUS!  Aside from the fact that I have to go into work tomorrow morning for a couple hours to wrap a few things up, my weekend officially begins now.  Heather and I are leaving at 11:00 tomorrow, might make a few pit stops on the way if the ( Read more... )

I know what ya'll are thinking..."Whoa, Allie.  Two posts in two days?!?"  The answer is yes, I'm back to my "I'm bored at work" mode and since I have less than 2.5 weeks here I figure a little slacking off is in order ( Read more... )

Why does the coffee at work have to suck my white ass, ball?  It's all watered down but yet extremely bitter.  Seriously, we've got people down in Texas working at 3 a.m. and people like me who don't go to bed 'til 3 a.m.  Where's the employee love??  If only Starbucks was on my way in the morning ( Read more... )

I've always felt kind of sorry for Monday.  I mean, it gets kicked around and dumped on soooo much, ya know?  No one likes Monday, and I'm no exception to the rule, but how would you feel if everyone told you how much you suck once a week?  How would you feel if no one looked forward to seeing you, no one wanted to hang out with you?  It's sort of ( Read more... )

I hate training stupid people!!!!!!  Like I didn't expect to have to do it, but still....doesn't mean I want to ( Read more... )

Turning 23 didn't seem like a big deal, so I didn't treat it like one, which meant not having any expectations for the day of my glorious birth.  Maybe I should do that more often 'cause my birthday totally kicked ass!  I got to work late to find a cookie cake bought by the girl in my group that I thought hated me.  Another girl brought more ( Read more... )
