no treats for you
you know what the problem is with getting up at 5:30 in the morning (shut up, i can’t sleep)? it’s being dead tired at 8:30. when i grow up i want to be one of those people that can function perfectly normal on like 4 or 6 hours of sleep.
also, there were no trick or [...]

“jodi what are you dressed up as?”
“a bitter, jaded copywriter,” i said.

“oh.”
“john what are you?”
“a handsome stranger.”

for those of you playing along at home, i’ve just discovered that i do not like, i repeat that i DO NOT LIKE the weirdo dub of Sugar Free Jazz.
that is all.

i’ve made it through the night to live another day. i am about to leave for work at this ungodly hour of the morning, mostly because i have roughly 184 things to get done today– but only 3 meetings so maybe i can get them done.
i’m going to do my best to ignore the ignoring, [...]

i’m throwing in the towel. i have been defeated and have given up hope that things will ever get better at work.

while listening to soul coughing do “the coffee song” i nearly, almost, sort, kinda smiled during the line “coffee pickles way out sell the dill.” but then i remembered i was at work and that i’m frustrated and being ignored which leads my mind to jump to all sorts of conclusions, so then my eyes [...]
Read moreanother political brouhaha
Republicans decry service as partisan reports the Strib. After last night’s political rally err, memorial Republicans must be freaking out. I mean, really the DFL got like a 3 hour, primetime commercial free! And really i don’t blame them for being a bit upset. But, i think if the shoe were on the other foot [...]

i’ve had all i can take, i can’t take anymore. i’ve been working on this software box copy since about 8:30 this morning and i don’t think i can look at it another minute. what sucks is that i’m not done, but my eyes are starting to cross and i can’t seem to think of [...]

regardless, paul’s son mark got up to speak and he was so personable and passionate, it was heartbreaking and wonderful all at the same time. amazing really.
there he was this [...]

i’m still tuning in to the Wellstone memorial and they’ve got this guy, rick kahn, i believe giving his little speech. the speech was supposed to be a eulogy of sorts for senator wellstone– at least that’s what i thought.
instead it’s turn into a rallying campaign sort of speech and the whole time i’m listening [...]
Wellstone!
watching the Wellstone memorial is probably not such a great idea. it’s just turning me into this goobering, snotting blob on the couch and i really have so much to do and i can’t tear myself away.
