Things that bug me, except for when they don’t

Okay, so anyone who has been around here for a while knows I have some pretty strange quirks. I can almost never order something right off a menu, I always have to change something around because of one food pickiness or another. Though I have gotten a lot better about it. Even Keegan says so, […]

Privelege

So, I saw this on Kathy’s blog (I’d link her but she’s mostly friends only). And being that a) it’s very difficult for me to resist a good meme, b) the subject matter interests me, and c) I haven’t posted in almost a month I thought I’d share. Here’s the “fine print”: This meme is […]

Day 318: New Jeans

Day 318: New Jeans Originally uploaded by twitterpatedme Not the greatest picture of them, but my old jeans are falling apart and held up with string, so it was time. I really need a belt now. These were way more than I’d generally pay for jeans- $65 a pair- but they were the only ones […]

Can’t Blog, Must Sing

I’ve had “New Jersey Girl” by Nerf Herder stuck in my head for days. All the “LaLaLaLa”s at the end are preventing any other coherent thoughts, so, there you go. But you should totally download the song. It’s good.
