typeracer = new crack

Monday, September 22nd, 2008

I just found TypeRacer, and let me tell you, it's crack for nerds like me. You race other people by typing paragraphs... the higher your WPM, the more races you win. Like I said, crack, lol.

the swell season

Saturday, September 20th, 2008

The Chop and I just got back from seeing the Swell Season (Glen Hansard, Marketa Irglova, backed by The Frames—did the movie Once) in Boston and they were completely incredible. If they come anywhere near you, go and see them, you will not regret it. The group had gone for a ...

I love Neil Patrick Harris and Jason Segel... and by love, I mean adore. They are freaking hilarious. And this only makes me love the entire cast of How I Met Your Mother more...

I don't know why, but this is very creepy to me. Very, very creepy.

why I love vermont, part 2

Thursday, September 11th, 2008

Montpelier is possibly the most awesome capital in the country. It's small, quaint, quiet, clean, cute and nice. Literally, the entire place is like that. Chop and I didn't get to spend too much time there as we got in late Friday night and left early Sunday, but I've been ...

oh the humidity

Saturday, September 6th, 2008

I've decided... once the Chop and I get engaged, we're eloping. Weddings are way too much work! A good friend of his got married today in VT, and while the wedding was beautiful and it was lots of fun, we were so glad to get back to the hotel and shower. ...

jerry seinfeld helps bill gates

Friday, September 5th, 2008

Alright, so Microsoft isn't growing at the rate they'd prefer (get rid of IE, there's an idea), so they have new ads now.. with Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld. This is the first one, and it's kinda hilarious. I'm still not going to by a PC from Microsoft, but at least ...

fine, whatever you say

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

I called my mom today (I called her yesterday, too, but she didn't answer) and after finally reaching her at work, I said, "are you avoiding me?" in a joking way. Her response? Yes. Yes, she is avoiding me. WTF? She apparently doesn't like it when I blog about her. There is not enough ...
