sorry, i finished the pot of coffee and i didn’t save any for you. this was probably not such a good idea because now i’m vibrating and want someone to amuse me. since there’s nobody around i’m shaking in my chair making it make this sound that would be really annoying to someone else in [...]

upon seeing the new super short, won’t stay down hair do for the first time on sunday sister #2 said, “what’s up joan jett?”
i was telling a friend about this and he said, “that’s not bad, joan jett’s hot.”
i promise eventually i’ll take a picture and show you.

there’s something to be said about rolling out of bed at 8:53, putting on some jammies, turning on the paul westerberg, and still making it to work before 9.
though i couldn’t do it too often, i do SO love working from home.
in other news i had a series of odd dreams involving co-workers, my [...]

my love hate relationship with the telephone has been well documented. mine doesn’t ring too often, and when it does i’m startled. i’m not good on the phone. i hate calling people because i worry about intruding. however, i love when people call me.
that being said the phone played a vital role in my [...]

the only thing worse than having to call the writing teacher you have a teeny-bopper crush on is having to call aforementioned teacher and having to leave a message without sounding like an absolute moron.
doh!

i can’t sleep and my stomach is rolling. i can’t tell if it’s from the greasy IHOP (my parents’ chose the dining establishment) or it’s nerves. tomorrow i have to talk to the bossboss about the position and what i need to do to get it AND i have to call robert (after the tattoo-showing [...]

dear father time,
i stopped watching tv and i don’t read the newspapers too often. so next time daylight savings rolls around could kindly send me an e-mail? see that way i won’t spend half the day thinking it’s 12:30 when really it’s only 11:30. i’ve been having problems keeping track of time lately and this [...]

some things at 3:41 on a sunday morning:
1. bob dylan’s “make you feel my love” makes me smooshy inside and long for 25-year-old jodi who wasn’t so jaded
2. i have a weird red, itchiness under my left breast, can one breast be allergic to laundry detergent and not the other?
3. i have decided i will [...]

i tried to Talk About the Passion and failed miserably. i don’t know how this went so horribly awry, but it did.

On Thursday I found out that my writing instructor is a Paul Westerberg fan. If there’s one thing you should know about it, it’s that I’m a weird rabid Westerberg fangirl. He’s like my thing, you know? Everyone has that one thing they are crazy obsessed about. For some it’s Marilyn Monroe or the Green [...]
