What's better than to come in to work and find that your phone doesn't work. In fact, what's better than coming into work to find that somehow the university has reassigned your extension? What's better? Oh anything. Anything's better because I need to work in my office and to answer the phone I would have to rush out to reception. No way.

AOL has posted 'Ten Books to Read Before You Die.' Am I the only one who thinks that Angels and Demons and The DaVinci Code were not at all impressive? I mean, at all. Who the hell picked this list? Stephen King? Okay, he's good, but not ten-before-you-die good.


For months, in our apartment, we have had curtains over the picture window in our living room; these particular curtains measure 80X63. Now, to cover each of our other windows, we need only ONE of these panels per window.

We have been trying for FOUR MONTHS now to purchase the proper size from Target stores. However, every single time we pick up a package of these window panels, the ones contained in the packaging are the wrong size. So, fed up with the stores, I took my shopping elsewhere, mainly to target.com.

Nope, my shipment came with the wrong curtains inside.

How do I know this, that it's not just a figment of my imagination? I measure these fucking things every time and every time... they're the wrong size.

Fuckin' Target. Get something RIGHT.

If I have to take my business to West Elm or Crate and Barrel, imma be seriously pissed.



So all of these songs were featured on this season of So You Think You Can Dance (this show is like crack). I picked fifteen that I really liked... and now, am sharing them with you.

The U.S. Women's field hockey team pulled ANOTHER draw against Japan (1-1) and Australia crushed Spain. (6-1)

As many of you know, this is my favorite sport of all time. To play, to watch (when you can FIND a game to watch), to read about. I've been away from it for far too long. Playing on one's own just isn't as fun as playing on a team. So I've been checking out an adult league that plays in Massachusetts. Add one MORE thing to my plate.

...also, it's raining. Again. Apparently Boston is now Vancouver. What... the hell. I'm not leaving the building today (although I have several things to return to H&M) even though I know I'm going to get an ice cream craving around two.

I'm really, really, REALLY gonna write House fic today; I promise. (My fingers are crossed, don't trust me!)

Lastly, I have a date tonight; wish me luck.
