…and that discovery is called “Oatmeal and Cheese”. It’s STUNNING! Maybe it sounds weird, but I was thinking “what can I put in this [oatmeal] to make it not gross” as I’ve never liked oatmeal, and I was reminded of how I used to eat grits and cheese as a kid (shut up, my dad’s… Continue reading I have made an amazing discovery…

So I called my mom today on my lunch break to say hi and wish her Happy St. Patrick’s Day. And she tells me not to drink any green beer. I promised not to drink anything artificially dyed green, and told her that I’d already had a naturally green beverage earlier today. And then she… Continue reading My mother the lush

Dramatis personae: me, roommate Setting: Last night, roommate’s room, after planning our St. Patrick’s Day outfits (okay, mine). ME: See you in the O’morning. ROOMMATE: O’Kay! ME: Goodnight’O! O’Fin. Told ya we sucked, didn’t I? Happy (almost) St. Paddy’s Day, everyone!

I’ve just been so busy what with Off Culler, with job-searching, and with life in general – ya know, going to awesome concerts like Jamie Cullum and Ben Folds, going on a coupla dates, trying to train for this triathalon (too many… Continue reading I know, I’m blog-delinquent

This is my favorite month. Not only is it the month of my birthday, but it’s the Equinox, a time for new beginnings… bulbs finally start coming out of the ground, the weather warms up to the point where we can ditch the nylons and have a reason to paint our toenails again… I freakin’… Continue reading Aaaah, the first of March…

I made Best-Of again on Craigslist, for the third time in a row, yippee!
