geek360

March 31, 2006

"GUESS. WHAT. JUST. GOT. DELIVERED. TO. MY. DESK. After a week of waiting and having our newly-arrived XBOX360 sitting there, taunting us with its newness and coolness and torturing us with our lack of playable games, we will now finally have something to play! For the weekend! Just in time! Except for the fact that I have [...]"

unproductive and loving it

March 28, 2006

"The oh-so-anticipated XBOX360 arrived yesterday. But the 2 games I ordered through my BestBuy points at work? Not arrived yet. The XBOX isn’t quite as much fun as we thought it would be when it’s just SITTING THERE TO LOOK AT. Ironic, no? So instead of playing nerdy video games tonight, and instead of working on [...]"

pleasantly surprised

March 24, 2006

"I will admit it: sometimes I’m a skeptic. Or rather, a lot of the time. If something sounds too good to be true, I immediately wonder what the catch is. So when I found this site where you can get free sterling silver jewelry (you pay shipping and handling: $6), I was pretty sure the [...]"

reason #437…

"…why it’s great to be married to my husband: He doesn’t care if I haven’t shaved my legs in 5 days; he’ll have sex with me anyway. :) More posts like this: how do I love thee? August 12, 2005 part of the human race again January 8, 2008 more gushing about my kitchen November 3, 2007 perspective March 18, 2007 friday [...]"

doooood!

March 23, 2006

"We totally scored an XBOX360 today. For $61. How $61, you ask? Because my husband is such a good little saver, and he’s been saving all of his BestBuy gift cards for almost a year. And he almost $400 worth (he gets them pretty much from everyone for every birthday and Christmas) so the grand total [...]"

gross

March 22, 2006

"Okay this is kind of a gross/TMI entry, but I have to post it. I have this… zit, I guess you could call it, on the inside of my right boob, kind of in my cleavage. And it HURTS. So much so that I had to put a bandaid on it so my bra and shirt [...]"

mish-mash

"I just have a bunch of random things to talk about. 1. We had a great weekend, spent Saturday at home in our pajamas. I did some spring cleaning in the morning, we watched a movie in the afternoon. Then I watched the BBC version of Pride and Prejudice- or at least the first half. The [...]"

friday forum

March 17, 2006

"heh… interesting that this week’s Friday Forum has to do with pets. 1. About how many pets have you had throughout your life? Not too many. I’ve had some fish, and we had a hamster when I was little (his name was Cinnamon) My family got a cat when I was in college and now she [...]"

hello ma’am.

"A very weird thing just happened. I was checking out people from my high school on MySpace.com (yup, bandwagon here I come!) and I clicked on a few profiles. I didn’t recognize the guy in one of the pictures and his age said 24, so I thought, well I MUST have graduated with him, or [...]"

FINALLY.

March 16, 2006

"Oh… well hello, 5 o’clock… would you like to go make out now? More posts like this: such a busy girl December 23, 2007 crossing that bridge March 15, 2006 ew. just… ew. November 2, 2006 extreme makeover November 2, 2007 high on life February 18, 2006 "

I blame hunger

March 15, 2006

"Nothing makes me feel more like an ass than when I send an email saying ‘Please review the attachment’ and I hit ‘Send’ without attaching the freaking thing. ARGH. More posts like this: awkward much? October 10, 2005 protected October 17, 2008 guess what guys? February 3, 2006 kind of all over the place April 12, 2006 I have the best clients [...]"

crossing that bridge

"I’m gonna let y’all in on a little secret: I started taking prenatal vitamins on Saturday. Now, before you think I’m gonna make a big announcement real soon, I’m not. We’re not planning on trying anything until at least May when we go to Italy… and then, we might just not try NOT to get pregnant… [...]"

must be getting old

March 14, 2006

"Everytime I eat ice cream, my teeth hurt. TOO COLD! But so, so yummy. More posts like this: all stuffed up November 18, 2006 corn and ice cream. August 25, 2008 recipe: fruit pizza July 8, 2007 such a disappointment October 20, 2005 recipe: Sun-dried Tomato Cream Sauce Pasta with Chicken August 23, 2008 "

freshness

"Because the last bits of winter have me feeling tired, crappy, and ready to move on, here’s some girly pink flowers for you! Plus, I was feeling guilty for using a premade Wordpress template when I call myself a web designer. Heh. I’m still testing some new plugins and stuff I’ve added functionality-wise, so if something [...]"

Detergent Debacle update

March 12, 2006

"Turns out, the reason the electric was out is because the dryer shorted out. We got everything cleaned up yesterday, reset a thrown breaker (which we thought was caused by Gracie climbing in the ceiling) and thought we were good to go. Then we tried turning on the dryer this morning to do laundry. It turns [...]"

best laid plans

March 11, 2006

"Today was going to be a day of work. I haven’t cleaned my house in 3 weeks and it’s getting rather disgusting. Then this afternoon was to be spent washing my car, which hasn’t been cleaned since July (other than the rain, which doesn’t count). And it’s nice out today! Sunshine! 60 degrees! Whoohoo! It’s [...]"

friday forum

March 10, 2006

"Lordy, am I ever living for Fridays. Here’s this week’s Friday Forum. 1. How often do you read? I try to read regularly, I almost always have a book I’m currently reading. It sometimes takes me a while to get through them though, because I only seem to find the time before bed… and I can [...]"

positive/negative

March 06, 2006

"Lazy and tired, so a list. + weekend with friends - baby puke on my shirt + baby giggles and 1st birthday cake all over baby’s face + staying up late playing games with friends - staying up TOO late + dinner at my parents’ house last night + touch football game in the semi-warm/still pretty cold weather - sore muscles from being [...]"

quote of the day

March 03, 2006

"“Being sober is overrated.” (said by my friend at work after getting off the phone with her millionth pain-in-the-ass customer of the day. HA!)

backhanded compliment

"This morning my dear husband says to me, “Wow, it really looks like you’ve lost a little bit of ton-age!” While I appreciate his noticing that I fit in my jeans a little better now, I’m not sure I like his use of a word that describes ELEPHANTS and TRUCKS. More posts like this: I think the heat [...]"

LONG. DAY.

March 02, 2006

"MASSIVE. HEADACHE. More posts like this: too long at the computer September 6, 2005 today November 28, 2008 I’m such a downer. November 6, 2006 makes me want to dig out my old yearbooks and start scanning September 8, 2008 myspace vs facebook March 22, 2007 "

less of me: no more excuses version

"So I’m gettin’ back on the wagon again. Or something. Two workouts this week. I did have ice cream last night, but a girl’s gotta eat!
