The next big thing
Why does Domino's Pizza not have an iPhone app? Today I ordered pizza (I had a coupon and it totally doesn't count as spending if it's cash, which I found in my jeans, so it's like free calories or something, shut up) and there was a link to share my order on Facebook. Now that struck me as pretty ridiculous and unnecessary, but in general I'm a ( Read more... ) -
Hey, at least it's not 25 Things
Jeez, my first update in forever and it's this kind of crap. How disappointing, right? I guess this one just struck my fancy and I really want to get back into posting more, so this is an easy first step. Here we go, with Alanis Morissette ( Read more... ) -
I'm sure the view from heaven beats the hell out of mine here
Today I got some really bad news. One of my oldest kitties at home, Ragamuffin, was run over by a car last week. My mother only just told me. She didn't even get to bury her, as she was on her way out of town for a workshop when she saw her body. Dr. Williams, a family friend who owns a vet clinic down the road, picked her up and buried her in his ( Read more... ) -
How do you document real life, when real life's getting more like fiction each day
So, update on the eviction crisis. After Chris yelled at Victor, the worthless leasing agent, this morning, Victor called me at work and was expressed his general confusion about the situation as well as his general inability to tell his elbow from his asshole. He requested that I come by the leasing office after work so that he could see the ( Read more... ) -

14 tons of frozen scaly anteaters seized in Indonesia
Today I had the weirdest thing done to my face. I went to a salon that was close by here because I desperately needed my eyebrows done before they took over my head. I went in to get them waxed, as I usually do, and ended up getting them threaded. If you don't know what eyebrow threading is, welcome to the club. This will probably explain it better ( Read more... ) -
Subconscious is a funny thing
Last night I dreamed of Travis. Wild, huh? He was the last thing I was expecting, even in a dream. Could have knocked me over with a feather when I saw him. I was back at Rice and heading to my car in West Lot, and Travis was parked next to me, and he was sitting on the ground between our two cars, waiting for me. He had come to tell me that he had ( Read more... ) -
Come on get higher
So today I joined a gym. Yes, a gym. Yes, me. I even paid for it. So much for my resolve to not spend money until Chris gets back. Had to pay first and last month's membership on this, and I also need to buy gas tomorrow and pick up some clothes at the dry cleaner on Thursday, both of which will probably cost as much as I paid today. At least I got ( Read more... ) -
I'm avoiding going home
Well, here it is 7 at night and I'm still at the office. I stayed late to do some organization and setup of my cube without people watching me, and now I'm staying and doing computer setup things which, let's face it, I could be doing at home. I just don't want to go home cause I'll be all alone there this week. Plus I'm hiding from the laundry ( Read more... ) -
Namespace
Well, needless to say, I've been neglecting this thing. I think my last post was about getting hired by Quorum, and now here I am in Dallas starting the job. Training is going well, I guess. The PL/SQL stuff was ok, I really liked Crystal reports (enough that I spoke to the instructor about going into that after training), and now we're on C#, the ( Read more... )
