I think the three remaining polar bears will disagree

if you gut tells you your lost, it's best to listen to your gut rather than keep going and wasting gas.

why can't Mr. Right have the last name of Now?  tired of waiting for my first real relationship.

today, I saw a red sports car with the license plate "funat55" - that's not just a red car, its a red flag for a midlife crisis.

I also saw a car that had taken a RETIRED MARINE bumper sticker and cut off the RE.

A coworker said he's wrapping his wife's present in duck tape.  I told him it better be something good or she's going to hate him.

It's late December and I ran errands today in a light hoodie and flip flops.  this isn't right.

Barnes and Noble membership costs $25.  you get 10% on every purchase and free shipping.  unless there other rewards I'm not finding on their website, makes me reconsidering buying their membership, the cost doesn't seem worth it...

my kids at work are trying to make us fat.  about ten different kids gave us staff gifts and only one of them wasn't chocolate.  I'm enjoying it now, but will probably regret it later.

Life is pain, Highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something.

J.Lo and Marc Antony both currently having clothing lines at the same department store.  I find it a little ironic and definitely funny.

My vacuum currently sucks at sucking.

I find it sad my kids at work have more of a love life than me.  they're in elementary school!

http://www.rainymood.com/ is an awesome website that simply has the sound of rain running non-stop

people constantly mistake me for someone still in their teens.  I've been told it's a compliment but right now, it's just really annoying.

I decided to get my hair chemically straightened again when in NoVA for Thanksgiving even though I know it's not good for my hair in the long run.

I bought the new [posthumous] Shel Silverstein book last week.  who cares if it's really just his family cashing in?  I loved his poetry when I was a little kid.

Hocus Pocus is my favorite Halloween movie.

I'm involved in a war with a gnat.  he has been taunting me since Monday, but I will have the final victory.

long time, no post

huh, I haven't done a post since April.

totaled Animal in June, got Gonzo to replace him.

I totally want to hear a Jack Johnson/Colbie Caillat duet.  their styles seem similar.

I discovered three different photos of me on the CNU-PD website.  funny thing is the photos were taken at least three, maybe four years ago and I'm just now seeing them, despite seeing other photos taken, though none of me, at the same time within months of them being taken.

I am going to start saving my favorite postsecrets and maybe create a personal photo album/book of them.

I finally got internet of my own at the apartment.  haven't officially had it since last August.

I am officially a Newport News resident!

I am greatly disappointed that family feud has changed times.  now it comes on while I'm at work and I can't watch it.

Seriously excited for the new season of NCIS!!!

Every time I go on CafePress.com, I am quickly reminded why I don't go on there often.  they have so many awesome things and I could quickly lose all my money if I spend too much time there.

Borders is officially gone.  the only benefit is to my bank account.

With a name I'd never chosen I can make my first steps as a child of 25

I use the word "so" a lot, especially to start sentences.

Only at Fair Oaks Mall do you have to worry about getting lost or confused by the fact there are TWO Macy's Department stores.

According to my parents, I'm the thing that goes bump in the night.

Even just overnight trips to Burke, I get overwhelmed with emotions and am reminded how I can never live there again.  I am reminded of a past I want to leave behind.

Newport News really feels like home now.

Newport News to Burke and back in less than 24hours.  blame the doctor's appointment that had to be done up in Burke and my desire to work.

I have kindergarten groupies at work.

The Newport News Borders finally closes its doors for good this week.  thank god for their website and getting free shipping.

I got a free oil change yesterday due to a computer system outage.  win!

I might actually decide to walk at graduation, but first I want to know who the speaker will be.

I love the movie Mamma Mia and the music, but Pierce Brosnan hurts my ears and makes me want to cry in agony.  why must an awesome movie/music be destroyed by someone who can not sing?!

I live for the times with friends where we talk about everything and nothing.

Russell Brand is becoming one of my favorite celebrities.  he just cracks me up

RIP Borders

I was wondering the other day, why is Black History Month in February and MLK day in January?  turns out, Black History Month predates MLK day.  In 1926, a Harvard scholar named Carter G. Woodson organized the first annual Negro History Week in 1926. He chose the second week of February in honor of the birthdays of pivotal black supporters Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln.  MLK day is observed sometime around his birthday, January 15th.  Questions with answers are always nice.

Sometimes, life would be a whole lot easier if I could just shut my emotions off.

I am officially off the sub list for work and in a permanent [part time] position.  w00t!

I'm hoping the weather tomorrow is as nice as it was today, because I would totally take advantage of it by walking the Noland Trail.

A coworker was surprised I have facebook.  I find this funny.

I just got an email notification from borders that my local store is closing.  the next closest store to me is 40 miles away.  *throws hissy fit*

Music from soundtracks of tv shows that got cancel make me happy and sad at the same time.  long live Veronica Mars and Dead Like Me.

For unknown reasons, I decided to watch Jay Leno tonight.  Mark Harmon was the first guest.  mmmm, love me some Gibbs.

I really do not like google instant, and while I can easily turn it off, whenever I clear my cookies, it gets turned back on.

After over a month of my phone being f-ed up and refusing to send/receive picture messages, I finally went to the verizon store and it is now fixed.  *happy dance*

I've found I really like making photo montages.

Sing us a song, you're the piano man

I decided that instead of 101 things in 1001 days, I am going to do 50 things in 500 days.  half the list in half the time.

I considered going to bed before 8pm tonight.  what has happened to me?

I am officially a CNU graduate, with my diploma and all.  haven't decided if I'll do the walk in May.

We now have two guinea pigs at my apartment.  both so adorable, both so destructive and evil.

I relate to J.D. from Scrubs a bit too much.

Carmen San Diego is a ninja in a red trench coat.

found a game in the office at work today called "Where in Space is Carmen San Diego" - some classics should never be tampered with.

I hope to not hack up my lungs tonight.  we cleaned the office at work and the amount of dust in there, I swear I saw a litter of dust bunnies.

I filled up my gas tank last week and paid over $30.  The last time I paid that much was September 2008

I got my 2011 Camp Firefly application yesterday!!!!!!

I removed the fan from my laptop and installed a new one.  computer is working perfectly and now silently too.  I feel all accomplished doing it on my own, especially since my warranty expired in December.

Why doesn't minimum wage not really equal living wage? it's not to say I don't aspire to do more, but in this economy, it'd be nice if the two were a bit more synonymous.
