Tazo Tea - Starbucks Love
I love holding Starbucks tea bags in my hand. The little multi-colored wrappers to Tazo Teas might not seem special to most but to me, they’re exciting. With attractive names (Awake, Passion, Berryblossom) and chatter about the tea itself (“A breakfast tea of boldness, depth and character, invirograting any time of day,” “A magical blend of hibiscus, Lemongrass, rose hips,...

Gmail
My gmail was hacked. I feel so violated. I had to change my bank account among other things and put a hold on my SSN. Scary day in Internet techonology-land.
Foursquare
Who else is using this? I’ve become mildly addicted recently…
Thursday/Friday To Do List
1. Three articles. Post all three, plus the one article that I have lying around in ‘queue.’
2. Graduate school application. Yes, again.
3. Get the website up and popping. Yes, again.

Recent Thoughts
1. I set my alarm for 4:30AM. Then 5:00 Then 5:30. Then 6:00. Finally woke up at six but boy, was that hard! I went to bed, technically, at 7:00PM so one must wonder how I managed to sleep so long.
2. I haven’t seen my secret guilty pleasure, The Secret Life of American Teens, at all this year. Since we’ve gotten the Wii (and even before then), we haven’t seen a lot of most TV....

Takeback Tuesday: De-Loused in the Comatorium
Takeback Tuesday: “De-Loused in the Comatorium” by the Mars Volta
I hated the Mars Volta when I first saw them. When the combination of MTV2 and senior year of high school were both cool, I saw their video in between commercials from another show and did not resolve to download anything by them. At that time, my favorite hobby was watching music television, writing down songs and...

Good News, Bad News
Good News: Valentine’s Day is over and perhaps the Internet will stop annoying me.
Bad News: It’s a workday and the cat is sick. In addition, it is snowing. I’m not excited.
Valentine's Day
I am so over all this Valentine’s Day bullshit. If tomorrow wasn’t a work day, I’d be looking forward to today ending just so Single’s Awareness Day would go away.

By the way, he lost his license beccause he let it expire for more than six months. In Ohio, if your license is expired that long you have to start over completely.
Renew your license people. Don’t be like my hubs.
That’s the reason why my mother doesn’t have a license. She let it expire because my parents never had a car. Of course, that’s in New York City where...

"We Are" by Tania Katherine
We are what we have become once all the snow has fallen and our hearts are warm again. We are what we feel we’ve become once the broken hearts and forgotten obligations become one again We are what we’re becoming with every submission on the Internet and key pounded in hopes of hoping

And all the colleges are closed EVEN UC. This NEVER happens! I’m here at home almost sick with guilt and worry that my co-workers will all think I just pansied out and didn’t come in since almost all of them made it.
BUT IT WAS REALLY TREACHEROUS! Now Cincinnati is backing me up.
I just hope they make it home safe!
I THINK THAT IT IS TOTAL...

No Doubt's Return of Saturn
Ever since hearing “Hella Good” in the car yesterday on the radio, I’ve had No Doubt in my head. Return of Saturn is easily still one of my favorite albums ever (yes, I know…I should be saying Tragic Kingdom. Equally good, just didn’t resound with me as much).
“I can’t help that I like to be kissed
And I wouldn’t mind If my name changed to Mrs. ...

Weight Loss Is Hard--Don't Believe Differently
For most of my life, I’ve been trying to lose weight. From when I was in 1st grade and my mother put me on a diet to Weight Watchers in junior high school to starting running, I’ve always been trying to lose weight. Now, due to a combination of (I’m sure) work stress, 5 different hormonal birth control pills in a 9 month period, a life-long hormonal imbalance and...
