Ugh… I’ve been sickity sick with an awful ickiness that ate up my weekend. I was so bummed I didn’t get to do fun things in the sun cuz I was stuck in bed. Bleh. But anywho, I’ll be back at work, better or not, as this is the last of my sick time… think… Continue reading Sickity Sick Sick Sick

So I just heard a strange, music-like noise in the background as I was half-watching the Simpsons, half-reading the mail. It sounded like someone else’s cell phone ringing in another room, but I’m home alone so it couldn’t be. And then I realized – it’s the ICE CREAM TRUCK!!! For a minute I had this… Continue reading The true mark of age

…with fresh strawberries and maple vanilla whipped cream. Mmmmmm, tastes like VACATION!

Most folks who know me know I am a complete sucker for a good pun. That bakery “Grateful Bread”, that massage store “All You Knead” – these folks are my idols. Puns are great. They’re why “Off Culler” is “Off Culler” and not “Dear Virginia” or something. But you know what? There is a line,… Continue reading Sucker for a pun

C’MON!!!!! Plus, congrats on all the good happenings. I think I might take a… Continue reading Sick cruel world, pt. 2

So I almost asked in the beginning of this post (i.e. this sentence right here, yes, the one you are currently reading) what the damn difference was between “miscellany”, which seems like a fake word designed by idiots too lazy to type out the full “miscellaneous”, but then I decided to look it up (online,… Continue reading Miscellany, apparently

This is such a tease. I mean, whose sick joke idea IS this? I’m going to go check my email now.

Yep, it’s been a fascinating less-than-twenty-four-hour period since my last blog posting. Allow me to enlighten you as to some of my activities and goings-on: 1) Still don’t know if I have the job. 2) Dined purely by happenstance with a local celebrity last night, whose name shall remain unmentioned as I’m sure he would… Continue reading Ten interesting revelations
