I am fighting either a bad cold or bad allergies and all I wanted to do was curl up in a ball and cry yesterday - for the whole, damn day.
My husband suggested I take a bath.
There was no hot water in the apartment though because I live in a terrible building.
So my very sweet husband boils water on the stove top, walks it upstairs, and tosses it in the bath until there’s enough in it...

When I was 16….
I caught my brother downloading porn on my computer and I thought it was making the computer run really, really slow. So I confronted my brother about it. Like, “Hey, little brother, stop downloading porn on my computer.” He was all like, “Oh hell no. I do whatever I want.” I was like, “Oh hell no. Ima kill you!” He was like, “Nuh...

Anti-Prop 8 Propaganda.
I went up to San Francisco last week to visit my Grandmother and Uncles. My grandmother is a true Southern Belle born and raised in the heart of Alabama. She loves seafood, George W. Bush, and truly believes that Obama is a Muslim Communist Chicago gangster.
My Christmas present this year was my great grandmother’s engagement ring. Now, my great grandmother’s ring originally had...

The funny thing about accounting is there is only so much of it you can study to prepare for a final. It’s all so intuitive and builds on each other that-like-frak

You know you’ve been studying accounting too long when you start to make accounting jokes with your professor and other classmates.
And then laugh at them.
You also know you’ve been in school too long when you use what you learned in your business law class to support an argument about an agreement in a game of Settlers of Catan (sorry about that, honey!)
Normally, I am all about anonymity, because I often thought it could be used as a platform for people to ask honest questions or make honest comments/critiques/suggestions/etc. After this whole experience though, I now think people ought to own what they say - particularly the stupid and/or insulting things. So no mo anonymous.
I can’t imagine someone walking up to a stranger on the...

Mental Yoga: My Office Building →

I’ve been selfish. Here I am, working in the Oz of office buildings and I have yet to share my magical encounters with my friends on tumblr. After all, not everybody gets to spend each work day surrounded by leaking walls, roof fires and possible asbestos poisoning!

The Quiet Death of Free Speech →
Anyone else amused that I married a war veteran despite of being friendly with the terrorists that America considers its NUMBER ONE THREAT?
Does anyone actually realize that animal rights activists are genuinely considered US’ #1 threat? Truth = terrorism? Confused? Yeah….
