When I woke up this morning, two things were immediately clear: My sinuses, one. And two, it’s kinda chilly out. I can’t even describe my joy. I bounded out of bed. I was a happy, slobbery puppy. I got coffee. I did a little boogie. I applied eye makeup with ferociousness and without fear. I [...]

Finally.

Finally, I bought five chapsticks. It cost five dollars. I put one on my nightstand, one on my dresser, one on my desk, one in my purse, one in my drawer at work. So that’s the end of the Perpetually Lost Chapstick Chronicles. Why I never thought of this before is beyond me. It can’t be [...]
To those of you who saw me yesterday and felt bad for me because of my terrible terrible allergies

You will be pleased to know that I have strengthened my defenses against pollen, ragweed, and all that stuff. Spores! Whatever it is that makes my nose crazy in the summer/fall. My mom gave me some Zyrtec, which I think I’m going to start using instead of Claritin (my usual), because I think it might [...]
Rex? Sniffle, sniffle.

My car, an adorable green 96 Saturn, is named Rex because I think it looks like a dinosaur. And sometimes I call it Sexy Rexy as though I named it after Empire Records, but truthfully, I just thought that the car looked kind of like a dinosaur face. Anyway Rex is not doing so well. Pretty bad, in [...]
Giant green mug/Miracle bus

On Uncle Bill’s blog, he says that a miracle is when God temporarily suspends the laws of nature to make something happen. Well. I think that’s what happened to me this morning.
Today I left my house late. Why? I don’t know, why don’t you pick on someone else for a change. Anyway, I woke up [...]
Finally, a quote and How To Get Electronics to Not Hate You Anymore

Well, for one thing, I started reading The Neverending Story, as recommended to me over and over again by Joe and Wayne. I am currently on page 20, that’s about 15 minutes of progress or so (lunch, yesterday) and already I found a quote that I think speaks volumes about my childhood. Hahaha. Also, I [...]
Marissa? Marissa!

One of my frogs is missing. Wait, that was not dramatic enough. ONE OF MY FROGS IS MISSING. It is by far the biggest unsolved mystery I have encountered for quite a little while. I do not know what could’ve possibly happened, but it can’t be good.
Wayne, if you remember, bought me some adorable little [...]
Notebook
Posted in general woes, writing on September 18, 2008 | 3 Comments »
Yesterday I wanted a notebook. There are many good reasons to want a notebook and I had all of them. I wanted to write something, big page, nothing fancy. College rule. Just one of those crayon-colored covers. A notebook! And it’s right after school supply season, so I thought I could get one cheap.
And of [...]

To start, a short list of things that are Very Common that seem Very Unique and Even Worth Talking About when they are happening to you:
1. For boys, growing a beard. I find that every single guy who has grown one talks incessently about how much it itches for like two weeks.
2. Growing out your bangs. Ditto, [...]
