tomolive asked: So right when I first started following you, you were headed somewhere on a plane and had Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Train '72 to read on the flight. In hardback. And I was all...OMG. That's my favorite HST book and I know it's long out of print in hardcover. Is it a first edition? Seriously, love that book.

So, if you guys don’t remember the funniest/most embarassing thing to happen to me in October, here is the shortened version: Local bartender texts me to say he found anti-baby pills on the barstool near where I was sitting. I don’t respond and pretend they are not mine, even though I was the only lady at the bar that night. Fast forward 2.5 months, to Christmas Eve. The parentals and...

I actually just said ‘Deep breaths, Megan’ outloud. Just one day and two hours until a three-day weekend.

This morning I woke up with a really nasty sore throat and achy, swollen glands. A few hours, later and my taco soup (a lunch I was very excited for) no longer looked appealing.  And then I started craving salad like nobody’s business. Guess my brain was looking for vitamins. In summary, our bodies are smart.

Am I the only one with Chronic Bitch Face?
Seriously, I can’t even count the amount of times someone has accused me of giving them a dirty look and I’m all ‘I’m sorry.  Whaaaat?’ I’m sorry, I guess I just contort my face from time to time.

Movies that are so bad they're good
In which I need your help/wit yet again. I need to come up with a list of movies that are so bad they’ree good. This should be my jam. I love really bad movies, especially really awful horror films. But I just can’t think.  Clearly, Point Break and Jaws III (I think) where Jaws attacks Sea World make the cut.  But what else?

Anonymous asked: Hi Tumblr buddy!
I was so surprised to get a thank you card in the mail from someone who has no idea who I am! If this whole tumblr buddies thing wasn't a secret, I would have already posted a picture of the cute dog card, thanking you for thanking me! Just so you know, there is a ho-ho-ho-holiday surprise coming your way, so be on the lookout!

WatchWatch
rahummel: While working on a project for work last month, I had to do some serious research.  Research on lipdubs.  This was one of my favorites.   Hangover guy on the left is my favorite.  Especially at 1.08. I haven’t even watched this video, yet. I mean I’m sure it’s great, Ann.  But, I am reblogging this strictly as evidence that The Roadmaster has surfaced. All hail...

If you are totally lazy like I am, but don’t want to spend money on eating out at lunch, I bring you the quickest, yummiest lazy girl lunch I’ve had to date:  Plain oatmeal, Greek yogurt with honey and pineapple chunks. And I shall call thee pineapple upside down oats.

The story of the polka-dotted tights
Yesterday, something got in the way of my Christmas spirit and it all started with a pair of polka-dotted tights. On my way to the office, I stopped at the Post Office to ship off some trinkets for my Tumblr Buddy. As I am waiting in line, a woman — who I would guess is in her mid-sixties — tells me she likes my tights.  I say thank you.  But, the conversation is not over.  She...

You know what’s really great?  When you finish all your work for the day by 12:45 and spend the rest of your time Gchatting, only to realize that every Gchat box on your screen represents a fellow Tumblr. That?  That’s really great.

“You Don’t Have to Be Pretty. You don’t owe prettiness to anyone. Not to your...”
– Erin, “A Dress a Day”  As much as I love pretty things and pretty clothes and the general pursuit of pretty, I need to remember that this is equally important and right. (via nogreatillusion)

If any of you thought my admission to grad school was a sign of my ever-growing maturity, you were wrong. Case in point. On Saturday I went to see a church Christmas play with my rooomate.  She is student teaching and her mentor teacher invited her to her church’s play and she felt bad saying no, so being the kind soul I am, along I went. Her mentor teacher was this adorable 70-year-old...

Goodnight Irene: Things I Learned Last Night →
I couldn’t ask for a better night with lovelier ladies. Soooo fun. Another successful Tumblr meetup. rahummel: I had the pleasure of spending my Friday night with four amazing girls.

Flat out terrible. -College friend Chuck needs to...
