refrigeration questions

Sunday, March 23rd, 2008

It's time for another fun installment of "what keyword searches bring people here?"! I enjoy looking at these, simply because the number of people who search to find out if they need to refrigerate ketchup is MIND BOGGLING. But lately, the questions about refrigeration have expanded, and I am here to ...

who's gonna scare away the boogieman?

Wednesday, June 27th, 2007

Last night, after everybody was in their respective bedtime locations (crate, basket, end of bed and bed), Regina started barking. Loudly. I rolled over, said shush, and noticed that the porch light had come on (it's motion activated). And for some reason, possibly because I had been watching a Law & ...

don't start with me today, please

I'm not the biggest fan of eBay, in general, but I think it has its uses and so therefore I have no problem using it when I need it. That being said, I had a VERY, VERY BAD DAY TODAY, dealing with irritating, obnoxious people and the final "straw in the ...

tipping point

Friday, October 13th, 2006

One of my absolute favorite things to do is to get a pedicure. I love sitting in the big chair, having a back massage, getting my toes all prettied up and talking nonsense with one of my favorite people. Oh, and reading trashy magazines. 'Cause seriously, where else can you go ...

limes or lemons

Wednesday, June 21st, 2006

I've been having an ongoing argument with someone recently. I put a lime in a beer that wasn't Corona (let me just say, the beer is really nasty tasting—I was trying to improve the flavor)... apparently this was total sacrilege to the beer. :P Whatever, not the point. He kept saying, "You put ...

I woke up this morning to the sound of a marching band outside my window Do you know what's worse than being woken up by the neighbors at 9AM on your day off? Being woken up by 30 kids crashing cymbals and banging drums. It's just so much worse. I got back ...

things I don't understand

Why guys don't change the toilet paper roll when they know it's empty—and no, it wasn't because all he went was number one, thank you very much. Along that same vein, why he did change the paper towel roll—WTF? What's the difference? I'm confused. There's a new person in our little office ...

the best part of Easter…

Cadbury eggs. Disgusting, yes, but disgusting in a drooly, delicious, yummy kind of way? Absolutely. :) And did you know that they now make a 12-pack of mini Cadbury eggs?! Holy crap, they are wonderful. No goo on your hands (well, less anyway) and, y'know, there's 12 of them. (I also like ...

cookie question

Tuesday, January 3rd, 2006

Going back to work after the holidays sucks. Especially when you spent most of said holiday ill. Granted, I'm still at my parent's home in Seattle, but I am working darn you! Not all that well though. I have to keep pausing to cough for several seconds at a time, the ...

google and hitler

Tuesday, December 6th, 2005

On my way home last night, I was listening to an argument on NPR between a guy from Google and an opponent of the new Google Print project. Personally, I'd be a huge fan—to a certain degree. Granted, I'd prefer to read an actual book—pages, cover, etc. You can't take a ...
