mass spam

Friday, May 19th, 2006

What the hell is going on with the mass spam? I think I've deleted around 150 spam comments in the past two days and I swear I'm about to knock some damn heads. I'm working on adding some plugins to make it stop, but shit if it isn't annoying as hell.

I pulled a muscle in my thigh and holy shit it hurts like a son of a bitch. Walking, moving, sitting.. it's just excruciating. I don't remember how I did it, either. ::cough:: There's a chance that last night when I was completely and utterly smashed with my friend E, I ...

cover letters: not for the humble

Sunday, May 7th, 2006

The worst part about job hunting? Cover letters. I loathe them... they make me want to pull out my hair and scream bloody murder. "Hi, my name is so and so and I think I'll be a fantastic addition to your company. Let me tell you why I'm so wonderful..." Sigh. I ...

One of my good friends has terrible taste in men—terrible. They always end up being jackasses who either cheat on her or try to use her for her money. We finally thought she had found a winner.. the wedding was being thought about, the ring was eyeballed and then he ...
