Heads or Tails: Memory

Image via Wikipedia

This week’s theme at Heads or Tails is “Share a Special Memory”.
Yesterday I threatened to write another post about one of the Silverchair concerts I went to last year, but this morning I was inspired by Jeff Buckley-primarily his song “The Last Goodbye“. I kind of suspect that we were suppose to write [...]

It’s raining, it’s pouring…

Yesterday was  a long day at work.  Sundays are always long-I work 16 hours on Sundays, but yesterday felt even longer.  While it wasn’t necessarily a bad day, there was a lot going on.  For the first 8 hours of the shift, I barely gave myself five minutes to sit and relax.  I [...]

Don’t Panic

Once upon a time I suffered from insomnia.  While I used to complain about it, I kind of secretly liked it.  If anything-it gave me ample time to be creative.  On my days off, when the rest of the house was asleep I could unleash my creativity a bit without the annoyance of [...]

One Small Favor

Hey guys, I have a small favor to ask of you…as you recall recently I have shifted my reviews over to a brand new home (The Quarter-Life Reviews) in order to be a little…uh, organization into my life.  So far I have close to 60 reviews-both past and present-and very few visitors.  And, [...]

Psst, over here!

If you can believe the author’s bio, Augusten Burroughs is one of the top fifteen funniest people in America. I tend to agree. After reading (and throughly enjoying) three of his previous books I had a pretty good feeling that 1. I would laugh and 2. I would probably gasp from shock at least once. [...]

Daily Meme Roundup

I’ll start out today’s Meme roundup on a more serious note with 3X Thursday.  The topic there is Half Full or Half Empty  and the questions that are asked are pretty thought provoking.
1. No matter what country you live in, do you think the future is bright (or gloomy) in terms of the economy? Why/why [...]

Driving Miss Diva

Last night I did something I never thought I would EVER  have to do.  I went prom dress shopping.
No, it was not for me.  I am well past that age where I would be needing a prom dress.  When I WAS that age and preparing for my own prom, my dress was sewed [...]

Daily Meme Roundup

First stop is the Wednesday Mind Hump where today’s topic is Shakespeare.  As I just finished reading Bill Bryson’s take on The Bard, it seems very fitting.
1.  What is you favorite Shakespeare play?
I liked MacBeth, honestly…confession time.  My English downfall was always Shakespeare.  But I did like MacBeth.
2.  Have [...]

Oh, potty mouth!

Currently I’m SUPPOSE to be at a CPR class, blowing into non sexual life sized dolls.
Instead I’m sitting at the computer FUMING because after busting my proverbial balls to find the Red Cross building in an area that I’m not overly familiar with (thank you to the guy at the car wash who [...]
