  • I'm a blogging machine lately! **ETA: Maybe some people are coming by for the first time and don't know why I put a picture of my hair up. I got it straightened recently with that Japenese straightening technique. So …
  • My sister-in-law (SIL) is prego and her water broke. 8 weeks early. That's gotta be so scary. From what I hear, they stopped the labor and are trying to prevent her from delivering for about 4 weeks. I'm just guessin…
  • Thanks for the input on the tattoo idea. I'll probably let it stew a bit before I get it done or change the design. This idea has been brewing for about a year now... I'm slow when it comes to commitment, folks. So, I…
  • Opinions, please! Tattoo? Is it cheesy? The colors won't be that bright as a tattoo on my skin, obviously. And this is bigger than what I'd actually get. I just don't know where I'd put it. But it's along the lin…
  • I got my health insurance card this weekend. Talk about quick!!!! I’m only starting my 3rd week here and I already have a card?! I’m not used to this quick processing without having to nag! Now I just have to make a …
  • ETA: I bought fabric to recover my dining chairs seats. So we also decided to buy paint stripper and redo the entire chairs! The paint job was pretty bad on them b/c my mom bought them at some garage sale. So it'll be…
  • Gold Cup Semifinals - U.S.A vs. Honduras: Mike had wanted to see a soccer game for the longest time. So we finally decided to try and make the one last night at Giants Stadium and it started at 6pm. We got there ar…
  • I got this today at work: It's an IBM T42! Yippee!!! Oh yeah, and it comes with a nice carrying bag too! It's all MINE! Now I need to update that profile picture with my new cube and laptop... the colors are les…
  • My last company is trying to weasel out of the bonus pay they owe me. On top of that, they STILL haven't calculated everyone's vacation time that is being paid out! So, looks like I'm not getting this money this Friday…
  • I've been busy... so I'll update in a LONG post today. Just to serve as an update on my life... Thursday: After dinner, went out with a friend (who was in the area for a night) to a café. Her sister came along and…
  • We had a fire drill today. The admin. assist. came over and said something like "we have to leave the building b/c the alarms are going off." Apparently the alarms only sound on every other floor. So, half the buildi…
  • I just witnessed something so disgusting. We have stray cats in the back of our place that my neighbors insist on feeding. The momma kitten (b/c she doesn't look old, but she has 4 kittens) just walked by with a pigeon…
  • Protected post today. If you're not on my list and want to be on it, let me know. If you're my boss or a weirdo, don't ask
  • It's my first day at a new job. I don't believe I'll be able to xanga at this new place b/c the monitors are all in full view of eachother (cubicles with low walls suck!). I didn't get much sleep and I know I'm going t…
  • How Alike Are We? (TrinityOne and myself, that is) How much like TrinityOne are you? Copy and paste them on your xanga but bold the things about me that also apply to you. Who do you think is the most similar to me? …
  • I got an A in my last class I would've given myself a C, for sure. Boy am I glad that I'm not the grader! I start work on Monday. I don't know how I'll get back into a schedule of waking up early again after …
  • While I have this week off, it has not been relaxing! Today I went to have my car inspected. And I failed. FAILED! A 2002 honda civic FAILED the freaking inspection! It was my gas cap that wasn't sealing correctly o…
  • Edited to add: Me and Mike's favorite alcoholic beverage! Though it's brewed in PA so maybe that's why it's not known on the west! When I was in Miami a few years back, I was so shocked to find out that the bars didn'…
