my dad got hired with a new company! it’s like a 20% pay decrease from his old salary, but hey, it’s a job. he just found out that he might be able to start as early as tomorrow or tuesday. he’ll be going to houston, texas to help out with the cleanup from ike with [...]

so i’m in macon in my hotel room. i’m up here this weekend for my MLIS 7000 class. most of my classes will be online except for this one and the capstone course i’ll take during my last semester. it’s not so bad. i’ve met some really nice people so far, and this one guy [...]

it all goes back to money, doesn’t it? i was running deathly low on funds last week but got a surprise check in the mail from my aunt for graduation. i got some extra money this week, and next week, i get paid officially. i’m so terrible at budgeting my money that i end up [...]

the bug man woke me up at 8 this morning. except it wasn’t 8; it was actually 9.  blah.
i weighed in this morning and it turns out i gained 3 pounds last week. i made some pretty poor food choices while we were in fernandina this past weekend, so i know that’s the reason…but it [...]

but at least i get money out of it!
airborne, the shit i have sworn by for over 2 years now, has been slammed and settled with a class-action lawsuit of $23 million. according to the judgment, there’s “no credible evidence” that airborne can prevent colds. the lawsuit was based upon false advertisement.

this morning, i [...]

well, my size 18 pants have been ridiculously baggy for a little while now, so i decided it was high time to head to old navy to step down a size (the last time i went down a size was probably in september). i bought THREE pairs of size 16 pants and one pair of [...]

i want this sososososososo badly. i am not even exaggerating. if i had the money, i would pay $8,000. no joke. ohmygod. how awesome. what’s even cooler is how you get to sing with the cast in 2 songs. albeit these songs are not the longest in the show, the fact that you do more [...]

i swear, that just makes me think of the office, office space…think of a miserable workplace in a movie or tv show and you’ve got it. my job isn’t miserable; it’s really not, but c’mon, “staff development day.” but at least that means no real work and i get paid. so that’s definitely the bright [...]

today was actually pretty uneventful. i ended up going with my aunt to wally world. after that, we watched the number 23 on tv. it wasn’t too great. then i went back to the house and did my parents’ laundry and cleaned the kitchen. we ate dinner. mrs. ware came over for awhile. cleaned the [...]
