Today at Work
I wrote an email in iambic pentameter.
And they said there wasn’t much of a creative component to this job…

My Life
Boyfriend hooking up the free TV we scored off of Craigslist for his house, cat purring in my lap, internet at my fingertips, and a rousing game of Rock Band in my future. Dinner is in my belly and dessert is in the freezer.
Methinks I am le spoiled.
