It has recently come to my attention that not everybody refers to their office printer as their “print monster.”
What, pray tell, do you all call it, then??

The Way Things Go
The fan breaks the same day as the air conditioner.
At least it’s no hurricane!
Cross your fingers the good repairman can fix it the AC.
I'm Going to Go Back There Someday
Rachael Yamagata
Artist: Rachael Yamagata
Track: I’m Going to Go Back There Someday
Album: Muppets: The Green Album
A very pretty version of one the saddest/sweetest songs out there. Gonzo is a tough act to follow, so good job Ms. Yamagata
“There’s not a word yet for old friends who’ve just met.
Part heaven, part space, or have I found my place?”
Will Someone Please
tell the East Coast NOT to evacuate?
1) If you still have cell service, you know it’s not a serious earthquake. Grab your vases and stay put.
2) IT IS UNSAFE TO EVACUATE IN THE EVENT OF AN EARTHQUAKE. The best course of action is to get under a sturdy table or desk and put your arms over your head to protect it from falling debris. Please don’t go outside and get hit by falling objects/buildings/trees. Thanks. If you do not to evacuate due to structural damage, wait until the shaking STOPS. If there is no structural damage, there is no need to leave the building.
3) I have stayed inside a movie theater where they didn’t even pause the movie during an earthquake stronger than this. Granted, I live in a city BUILT for earthquakes, so I’ll give you a pass, East Coast.
Nephew Garvin Makes Me Proud
Nephew Garvin is two and is a real little boy now! Here are some amusing things he said at dinner this weekend:
At a Mexican restaurant, staring mournfully at the kitchen door, Nephew Garvin bemoaned in the saddest little voice ever, “Where’s my dinner?”
Upon it’s arrival he pronounced, “I am going to eat this HUMONGOUS quesadilla!!!”
I feel like “humongous” is a pretty good word for a two year old.
Also, when asked what he fed the llama at the zoo, without missing a beat, he responded, “tacos.”
He is a silly one!
Ice Loves Coco
Watch and take notes. That’s a surprisingly healthy marriage.
My love for this show knows no bounds.
Today at Work
I wrote a song about Lendale White in my head.
It’s not very good.
It rhymes “Lendale” with “Glendale.”
It is in fact, a very bad song. But it is very fun. And about LENDALE WHITE.
“Maybe I should start jazzercising…”
—A perfectly serious statement I made to my boyfriend
What do you think would happen if I responded to all requests in my work emails for the rest of the day with:
“NO. NOW HAVE A MARGARITA AND EVERYTHING WILL BE OK.”
This is my plan. I am gud at the bizness shtuff, no?
BBC News - Philadelphia orders curfew after flash-mob attacks →
bbc.co.uk
How is my hometown’s current minor curfew (that was also in place when I was a minor) EARLIER than a minor curfew implemented to control VIOLENT MOBS?
Yeesh.
Also, Philadelphia - yikes. Please, feel better soon.
I need new (bigger) bras.
I trying some on last night, I FINALLY get why so many women in America are wearing ill fitting bras.
The bigger the boobs, the more fabric there is to be IN THE WRONG PLACE.
I mean, I’m just trying to buy a pretty run of the mill cup size and I ran into problems - I am completely in awe of how on earth bigger chested women actually find anything that fits well on any sort of consistent basis. My brain is actually unable to comprehend the vast number of bras large chested women must try on just to find one that sort of fits. How do you people do it????
