Today I heard that my roommate (the one who invited his friend to live with us without asking anyone if we cared, and now I’m pretty sure his girlfriend is living with us…) was bitching about me for not doing my dishes last night.
For the record, I used to be terrible about doing dishes, but now I do them atleast before I go to bed, if not right after eating, with maybe a FEW...

Bamboozle
Oh god someone please just tell me what to do about Bamboozle. Go? Not go? Go one day?
I used to care a lot about going to Hoodwink, but when I combine (a) not wanting to pay for it, (b) not wanting to deal with getting to NJ an extra day and (c) not knowing when I’ll get out of work Friday so I’ll probably miss half of it anyway, it makes it seem less worth it.
There are more people...

Am I being an ass?
I really can’t tell.
Here’s the situation: my new roommate broke my blender. It was an accident, but then again I have no idea why he would have precariously balanced the blender pitcher on top of the spice rack.
He told me about it and offered to buy me a new one and I said okay. He’s brought it up more times than I think is really necessary and I think he was fishing for me...

Project: My Cat is Awesome →
I don’t know why I thought of this today. Short-lived blog that I started to try to convince Kay that despite her allergies, my cat should come live with us. I posted twice and then abandoned it.

… yes.
i’m not a web designer.
please read miss jessica’s post about this sort of thing, i think it clears these things up pretty well.
I am no kind of designer, but I can relate to this in that people always think I’m just being self deprecating when I say I do fakey-webdesign. They think I’m just fishing for compliments so they’re always like “No, not...
Amazon is all up in my business. True, my newfound love of healthy cooking has meant I spend a lot of time wistfully looking at $300 blenders online or adorable kitchen gadgets shaped like animals. But my emails from Amazon make me feel like maybe it’s a little TOO much time. No joke, I get emails like this twice a day now. And these are real subjects, not exaggerated:

Some positivity.
This morning I got up and went across the street to the produce market to buy a big bag of fruits & veggies to eat this weekend. Why this made me happy:
1. Strawberries $1.49/pound. Again. Third week in a row. Cheap fruit is my favorite thing about summer. That sounds weird, but who can afford cantaloupe in the winter?? Cantaloupe=the best.
2. I thought it would be like $12 for all the stuff...
