You know how in the Gmail chat you can enter status?  Like "brb", "meeting", "TGIF".  It's a nice, easy way to share your mood or status to a large group of people.  Sometimes something funny is appreciated or even a link to something interesting.  But personal diary?  Maybe not necessary.

There is a woman on my work chatlist that, for the past ( Read more... )

 There is a lady here that does not wash her hands after she uses the bathroom.  I am so lucky and seem to always run into her in there.  The first few times I was coming in just as she was exiting a stall so I thought maybe she didn't use the bathroom and just went in to adjust something.... I don't know!!  But NO.  She definitely goes to the ( Read more... )

In junior high we were forced do a current events project.  They made us collect newspaper clippings and I think we were supposed to do something with them.  Anyway, my parents did not subscribe to an English language newspaper, but there was a SF Chronicle distribution center in our neighborhood, so my friend and I would ride our bikes over there ( Read more... )

Every Friday we have either donuts or bagels and cream cheese.  For whatever reason, I feel less bad about the bagels than I do about the donuts ( Read more... )

This past weekend was wonderful.  It started on Friday night when I met up with my good friend Nat, who flew in from Arizona.  She was in town for our friend Rich's wedding.  I met up with her downtown and we went to dinner at Lulu's in SOMA.  It was ok (restaurant review to post soon at sisterpalates.blogspot.com).  After dinner we headed back to ( Read more... )

Recently the subject of man boobs were brought to my attention and now they seem to be haunting me.  What a strange, sad twist that though men love boobs as much as they do, they are not allowed to have any of their own.  Seems mean doesn't it?  But truth is they are more than slightly unattractive.  Now I see them everywhere and I can't help but ( Read more... )

I am sure that I've mentioned all the bikes and scooters around at work.  It's a great way to get around and it's fun.  Although I've yet to get on one of those scooters.  They say those things can go up to 30mph.  Plus if I do get on one, I'm padding up with as much gear as I can because the probability of me falling is pretty high.  Not everyone ( Read more... )

There is nothing like watching grown men, glue sticks in hand, puzzling together receipts on a sheet of paper.  You see the concentration as they line each one up carefully to the next.  It's even funnier when they use tape.  Ah, the expense report.  How future generations will judge us.  "Did you know they used to actually tape each receipt to ( Read more... )

Just rewatched Goblet of Fire to get warmed up for Order of the Phoenix.  Goblet was scary!  I mean, Voldemort is really scary!  So I was rather surprised, when we got to the theatre, to see so many young children in the audience.  These are not little kid movies anymore.  Harry Potter grew up and so did the movies.  So I'm on the verge of a ( Read more... )
