Last week, my group at work held a sale for charity in which we sold balloons and roses for co-workers to give each other. On Friday the building was filled with hundreds of red heart-shaped balloons hovering above the desks. It was one of the most festive sights I've ever seen, and it took all my will not to run through the aisles with my arms ( Read more... )

When I got home last night, there was a flyer on my door announcing Resident Appreciation Week at my apartment building. Each month they have some sort of event, such as movie night or beer and wine in the courtyard. This time it's a full week of events.

Literally, bingo. I ( Read more... )

If you only knew the power of the Dark Side. Obi-Wan never told you what happened to your father.

Reading Twitter has become my new favorite  time-waster. You must only follow those who are both witty and famous in some way though, like Stephen Fry or John Hodgeman.

Next time I decide to give dating sites another try, will someone please find a blunt object and whack me in the back of the head a few times? Pleease ( Read more... )

I just listened to Frank Sinatra sing John Denver...and blew my own damn mind.

I think it's time to switch to some Esquivel.

This ranks as the most unexpected email notification ever:

Stephen Fry is now following you on Twitter!‏

Well, me and 20,000 others, but I think that's sweet that he adds people back. That is why Stephen Fry is full of awesome.

Then there's Wil Wheaton, who isn't following me, and he updates every half hour!

On another note, if I was 10 years old, I'd ( Read more... )
