Not to be a total bummer...
minou: insomniacmeg: But sometimes I feel like the only person in the world who doesn’t like Halloween. Don’t worry, you’re not. Seriously, you’re not.

My neighbors are having a party.
sistermarymartha: It is so loud, they might as well be in my room with me. I can hear them OVER the tv. I need to go to sleep. This is a problem. Oh SMM, I share your pain. It’s the all techno hour up at Tila’s…and by all techno hour I mean all techno all night.

I’m sparing you all my miserable mood because no one likes a Bitchy Betty (well, unless it’s Betty Draper…then it kind of kicks ass). I’m tired and frustrated and sad and angry. At what? I don’t know. PMS and generalized anxiety disorder rear their ugly, ugly heads.

Leadership Behavior in the New World at Work Leadership challenges fueled by this recession, business deals, job promotions, technology integration, marketing/branding campaigns, negotiating, strategic plans-even financial statements, are driven by the psychology of influence. We are all persuaded to behave, think, feel, listen, cheat, lie, eat, guess, take risks, buy or sell as...

So...this is weird...
In an effort to be environmentally better, I consolidated baggies and put my pretzel rods in the same bag as my two pieces of ciabatta bread (which I’ll eat with my leftover homemade Tuscan stew…mmm). I just took a bite of a pretzel and it was, in a word, nast-ay. It was like the bread sucked all the freshness out of the pretzels. I unknowingly put the pretzels in with their killer!...

So what have we learned?
I haven’t posted much since the incident on Thursday. I’ve had a long few days to think about it and about my complete inability to act like a normal responsible adult. I felt sick all day and evening Friday, canceled my plans and fell asleep on the couch at 9pm. My therapist said I was punishing myself. Could be. I guess I felt I deserved it. It’s not about the money wasted...

Alright parking assholes...
…you win. I’m no longer driving to work, because I can’t seem to get my fucking shit straight with you people. I guess you’re too good at your jobs. And I’m too much of an idiot. I got ticketed. And booted. And towed.  AGAIN. For real? Like, for real real? It’s totally my fault, too. I forgot the date and forgot that my parking pass had expired yesterday....

Anyone? Anyone?
Everyone seems too busy lately. I guess I’m too busy too. I’m having a hard time today. I don’t quite know why. Nothing is bad, really. I guess it’s just that nothing is where I’d like it to be. And it all comes down to me and I know that. I could combat the monotonous nature of 9-5 life by doing something for myself in the evenings, but I just…I don’t...

Yesterday was the year anniversary of my grandfather’s death. He was my last living grandparent. Gamper was a brilliant man who spent almost a decade wasting away in a nursing home. I’m thankful (as is my mom) that I was here in Chicago for the last three years of his life, and was able to visit him and check up on him often. He got to know Jonny a little bit. He got to meet my nephew,...

Poor Lenore!!!
Same thing happened to my coworker while she was walking home. I’ve stopped carrying my phone out and about unless I’m actually on it. Though that probably wouldn’t even stop these fuckers. Arrrg. Which metra station? I wonder if it’s near my coworker’s… So upsetting. I’m glad you’re okay though!

I will say...this is a good use of one's boobies... →
One’s round, melon-like, about-to-burst-off-her-chest, disgusting boobies. At least she was using her brain. Kind of.

We schedule recordings, rehearsals and recitals for students here. For the first two, there are just booking hours for students to come in and reserve time. For the latter, we have official paperwork for them to fill out and for their professors to sign. It’s not complicated. I don’t even think it’s out of line. There has to be some order, some official nature to the process,...
