Thursday Top Ten
mightvsheart: So planning out my week turned out to be a good thing. I got a lot of stuff done! Taking my test and snagging the census job! I start Monday! Super Stoked! Organizing my room and clothes. Going through boxes of records in the garage. Found duplicates. Going to put them on ebay. Making time for Will. I don’t really see this going anywhere though. I’m a mess. Changing my last...

nyclust: gettingthereasfastasican: (via nosauce) I’m not that excited by this news. Me either. When I first saw this I thought it was Jennifer Love Hewitt which was somehow more interesting even though I kind of hate her. Think about what Neil Patrick Harris could do with some Ghost Whisperer shit. Think about it. I am more exciting about NPH guest judging on American Idol.

Dear District of Columbia speed camera,
I came home last night to a red, white and blue envelope, return address: Metropolitan police. The contents?  A $100 fine printed on Americana stationary The charge: Traveling 66MPH in a 50 last week along the parkway. Not cool little speed camera.  I mean a 66 on the highway is hardly speeding.  I know,  I should know better, but you didn’t even give me the chance to explain. You see...

I really need to be productive today, but all I’ve managed to do is run, clean a bit and drink lots of coffee. But you see, I have this incredible, perpetual writer’s block thing going on today.  And I’d really like to tie up a few projects, but it seems overcaffeination and Three Dog Night can’t even help me now.

April 8, 2008: It was one of those early spring days in central PA, where the sun was just beginning to peak through the clouds, but the air remained thick and chilly. I was halfway through my last semester, savoring the remaining time and waxing nostaligic for the early days of dorm life and frat parties. There was a perpetual internal fight stirring: I wanted to become an adult.  I wanted to...

Oh, we met in a bar →
Picture it: July 4th. Brooklyn. 1972. Momma Mck was lookin’ hot.  Her amber locks were swept into The Farrah Flip and denim hotpants were sported. It was one of those sticky summer nights, I’ve been told. Waltzing into her favorite local bar, Cozy Corner, with a gaggle of girlfriends just around midnight, she spotted a tall, shaggy-haired dude across the bar. (She tells me she knew...

A word to the wise:
When calling the AAA’s 1-800 number, don’t invert the last two digits.  You will get a sex operator.

I received a groupon in my inbox today for two belly-dancing classes for the swell price of $10 at Baltimore Yoga Village.  I skimmed through the email to see the time, date, location specifics and come across the event tag line: “Dance like nobody’s watching from the bushes.”

My first half-marathon!
I’ll be signing up for this half marathon. It’s been put in both mine and my mom’s calender, so it will be happening. I’ve only done a couple of 5km races, so am not sure what to do to train. Does anyone have any suggestions/recommendations for training plans? (gettingthereasfastasican) I didn’t realize you live in Maryland! I was thinking of signing up for the Annapolis half. I...
