I had a great couple of days with Amy. She said she is going to visit more often, maybe once a month. I took her all around Philly and her visit culminated in our eating of a genuine Philly cheesesteak. It was so good! The other night we saw the Liberty Bell, which I hadn't actually seen before. Good times. And our work holiday party was yesterday ( Read more... )

I'm so tired my eyelids are burning. It's a very uncomfortable sensation. Like I've been peeling onions.

I've got a party at Nick's to go to, but I have to do some stuff here first. I have Christmas cards to write, and baked goods to bake.

I really hate the sound of people coughing/clearing their throat ( Read more... )

Wow. I just went from being incredibly happy to incredibly sad after one phone call. I think I've been too optimistic about the whole situation from the very beginning. I always get such high hopes. But I've invested a lot of myself in this, so it's going to sting when it happens. It may take me a while to get over it. But then again, I believe ( Read more... )

Reality check: Christmas is in 17 days ( Read more... )

Tomorrow's the 23, so I have officially been at my job for 6 months. That's half a year! I can't believe it. I told my boss. He wants them to announce it in the morning. Yay ( Read more... )

I had the urge to update because I felt a strong desire to write all of a sudden and I thought I should take advantage of that, but here I am and the desire is fizzling. Today was not as productive as I planned it in my head. I was going to do laundry (which I did), clean my room and the apartment (which I half-assed), and I was going to get my ( Read more... )

The Bubble I knew and loved for four glorious years has been burst because of some sick perv who got off by videotaping women using the restroom in the library. How could this happen? (Especially in the library - who would have guessed?) Especially on a campus where you always felt safe and watched over. I guess those days are over. It's all going ( Read more... )

So I'm loading the dishwasher tonight, right? I turn it on and start to handwash the dishes that wouldn't fit when all of a sudden, out of nowhere, the Funky Chicken song pops into my head. And get this: the sound that the dishwasher was making was in perfect sync with it! Bizarre! Now I can't get the infernal song out of my head. Well, now that I ( Read more... )

The concert was amazing! Both put on a fabulous show. Gwen's backup dancers...incredible. And the BEPs were so great. Gwen dropped the f-bomb a lot, though, which surprised me. I didn't expect that from her. I was telling Candi how it amazes me that these musicians who go on tours remember which city they're in. What a faux pas it would be to say ( Read more... )
