It's pouring rain today. The sky is gray and cloudy, the sun is gone and the coworker keeps yelling... she does not like the rain.
I came home from last week's excursion with six boxes of books... ahhh. (Yes people, that is love.) Unfortunately, I can't seem to stop myself from ...

The coworker is rolling on the floor.
We are kinda buzzed. No wait, she just yelled, and we are "VERY BUZZED."
It was a long day. I made my mother cry, the coworker found out her fbuddy has a girlfriend who's seven years younger, we really don't like our job, she just ...

Coming back to work, after almost a week off, sucks uge donkeyballs.
There's way too much stuff to do, and the coworker and I would much rather be anywhere else.
Particularly when we're facing emails from the Boss that he sent on Thanksgiving.
His home life must really be subpar.

Truly one of the most harrowing conversations you can ever have with your parents? Explain that you're dating this guy you met online... and that you've driven several hundred miles to spend a week with him... bearing in mind that it was your sister who "shared" some information that led ...

Just a quick note to say hi and Happy Thanksgiving. Enjoy the holiday... we are. ;)
Oh, and just because it bugged us this morning... the number one piece of news this morning? On CNN Headline News? That Jessica and Nick broke up. Yeah. On CNN.
Because that's just the most important ...

The bad thing about hotels is that the walls are awfully thin.
We woke up this morning to the sound of someone else's shower. It was incredibly loud and honest-to-god the longest shower I have ever heard anyone take. It just kept going. Rolling over, I asked if we should call ...

I learned an important lesson today... always call ahead to make sure that the ONLY coffee shop in town is still open... and didn't close six months before I arrived.
It was truly a disheartening lesson to learn this morning. :(
Other than that, I'm still here (I almost wasn't this morning). ...

If you've never experienced deer parts flying into your windshield while you're going 80 on a two lane highway surrounded by trucks, you haven't lived.
The mini road trip ended with a lovely little ::splat, goosh, splat::—and me not being able to turn on the heat in my Jeep for the ...

I just realized that if I didn't post today, it would be the first day I hadn't posted in a really long time.
But I'm really tired, lol, and I can't think of anything interesting to share.
So let's see.
We went to the main office today and it went well. There ...

The book has now reached 642 pages... there are still three articles missing, so it'll probably rise to about 700 by the time I'm through. It's huge and monotonous—at least to me. I've been reading all of these articles for months, and while I'm a damn good copyeditor, it's been ...
