Fact: Your pet is not your child.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my cats. [No, I haven't been able to go pick up Washu's little ones, Ohki and Taiga..] I will flood my blogs and other social networking outlets with pictures of them because I think they’re cute and I have friends who [...]
And as if frozen pipes could have possibly been the extent of it?
Oh no.
Here, we abide by Murphy’s Law!
Later in the evening of my previous post, I was rushing around Best Buy [I ended up washing my hair with bottled water] selling computers and all that. Jeremy comes in 2-3 hours before my shift ends.
“The [...]
I tumble out of bed, stumble to the bathroom, and fumble for the faucet to brush my teeth.
No water. A faint hiss, but no water.
The bill is up to date as far as I know. Broken watermain? Maybe. Frozen pipes? Fuck.
I’m not used to being in a place with shitty pipes/insulation. Awesome.
I sent our room-mate [...]
(After going through the pitch with a nice Print/Scan/Copy/Fax that weighs about as much as I do and retrieving it from the top level on a not-so-sturdy ladder, lugging it to the front of the store…upon asking if she needed a USB cable for it…) “But that doesn’t fit in my computer.” “Yes it does, [...]
Holidays exist to commemorate or celebrate some nifty occurrence or accomplishment or to honor the sacrifices made for us current folks by some previous folks.
Society [American, at least...alas, I am unworldly...] has Christmas on December 25, Halloween on October 31, Valentine’s Day [which is a joke, IMO] on February 14, and the US has their [...]
Fact: I am a very private restroom person.
I get enraged if someone tries to open such a door even if locked sans knocking attempts.
Some people are really comfortable in situations and leave the door open when they use the restroom. Now, obviously everyone has to use the restroom and there’s no sense in pretending that [...]
I could’ve sworn I wrote about this, but I guess nothing brought it to the front of my thought after I joined the community. Six-ish months before I joined the community–so this is October of 2006–some kid at my school offed himself.
It seems that, in America at least, every time a student kills himself the [...]
She met him after her abortion when she worked at a movie theatre. They hung out and partied. Evidently, they started dating at some point between then and now. Since, she no longer works at the movie theatre and he’s a minimum-wage-earning cook at a highly lucrative restaurant. Every dime she makes babysitting he tries [...]
There’s a girl who has been in school with me since we were ten. She used to go to a private Catholic school, but for whatever reason transferred to my small city’s public schools. She was cute and friendly at first, of course.
She, however, is a pathological liar. Ever since I first met her, the [...]
Last night she came over [after the first Tutoring was posted]. She lied about completing a research paper that was supposed to be done three days ago. The thing that’s really lame about it is that it is just the restatement of and elaboration upon a previous little journal essay. Takes no time at all. [...]
