Okay, so I really dislike Valentine’s day.?? Not just in a whiny-single-girl-anthem way, but like even when I’ve been attached on the Big V I’ve had extraordinarily bad things happen.???? Like a torn knee ligament that required surgery, huge fights resulting in breakups, broken alternators requiring me and three really unpleasant guys (only one of… Continue reading Valentine’s Day – CANCELLED!

In other news, I got YET ANOTHER awesome FREE POST-IT-FLAG-CONTAINING PEN from my awesome as all hell roommate (thank you SO much J). It makes me so happy.

Kids these days…
So I was just chatting with my coworker, who has an adorable 3-ish-year-old daughter, and we were laughing about funny things her kid says and does. And I went off about how my funny cute 3-ish niece always talks to me in Spanish now, and refers back to specific conversations we’ve had or games we’ve… Continue reading Kids these days…

Spring is almost here, and so are some ugly-ass clothes that I’ve been seeing making their debut on some unfortunate fashion victims around my workplace, so I thought it might be high time for some additions to Ginnie’s Fashion Rules. 57. Wedge/platform sandals are UGLY. I don’t care if they are trendy – just because… Continue reading New Fashion Rules

“Sorry, Not A Winner”
That’s what the lottery machine told me.?? But I believe strongly in the “3rd Time’s A Charm” rhetoric, so I’ll be purchasing my third-ever ticket sometime around my 25th birthday, I think.?? Doesn’t that seem like an appropriate time??? I thought so. Know what else I’d like for my birthday (besides a fountain pen with… Continue reading “Sorry, Not A Winner”

I smell like mangoes (and apparently good karma)
So I blew all $250 last night on cosmetics, skincare, haircare, and ingredients for my own concoctions (well actually, I also bought two organic lemons because they were on sale for so cheap, and $1.88 worth of pesto tortellini because the checker didn’t know how to just cash out the remainder on my gift card).… Continue reading I smell like mangoes (and apparently good karma)
