Fumbling around a non-Smith world

Accomplishment of the day

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 14:12:38 -0500

I won Uno today!!! Except it was the weird Uno… Uno Attack or something? Either way, very productive.

The saga continues

Yesterday my roommate told me that this guy came by to see the apartment the other night. Of course I wasn’t around for that, awesome. I sent him an e-mail introducing myself and whatnot. He wrote back like “heey, yeah you sound like a nice person, I am interested in this other place but I won’t know about it until the 21st,” etc. etc. The best part was that he was like “yeah Morgann’s room was a little smelly” - FOR SERIOUS! I wanted to be like augh, thank you, it’s not just me. I forwarded the e-mail to her so maybe she’ll get the hint?

Also, the newest thing her dog has done was apparently rip apart her down comforter. Key word here is down. So now there is down all over the place. I mean, feathers are nice, I just don’t want them floating around on the floor. I think she leant our vacuum to our super fucking dumb neighbors so maybe she’s just twiddling her thumbs until they return it? Cool… yeah. I could hear him tearing her room apart a few minutes ago so who knows what else is going on there. Super awesome!

PS - I’m really getting my hopes up for this IKEA sale dealy that’s going on. Come ooooon new bed!! I need you!

GPOYWTh - I’M SHIPPING UP TO BOSTOOOOOON! edition

Today is “Dress Like Your Home State” day at work. I borrowed the jersey and hat from a coworker. The only clothes I own that kind of hint at Massachusetts are Smith things.

Also, it’s a little slow today.

Thinking about it?

If anyone would like to donate a couch to me, I would be very grateful. I would also settle for a futon. Or even a chair. Seriously, I need me some furniture. Or at least some idea of where to buy some that will not infest my apartment. Ehhhh.

The Beelzebubs - Come Sail Away

Though I 100% agree with Katie that Nota (viva PR!) will pwn their way to be champions of The Sing Off, this performance from the Beelzebubs was nothing short of fun. I’ve only gotten into a capella music in the last 1.5 year or so, but this group from Tufts is pretty ~~nerdy~~ epic.

You’re welcome!

edit: To be fair, I haven’t listened to any of the groups on this. That being said, NBC might be a little dumb in the head for only having one group from the Northeast. Seriously. Nothing screams small private New England elite liberal arts college like some good a cappella.

I noticed this tonight. This hangs above my head. It was cleaned immediately. The thing is I swear this I already cleaned the blades of this fan off when I moved in three months ago. I really hope that this does not turn into a regular thing because its pretty gross.

When the whole fumigation (?) thing had to happen in my apartment, we had to take off all of our switch and plug plates. There is a ridiculous amount of dust behind those things. Sooooo gross.

December 100 - 12/16

Long story short, but my wisdom tooth on my bottom left side is acting up and the soreness/swelling is making speech without pain impossible. I didn’t talk for my last 3 hours of work yesterday. After I got off of work, I went Christmas shopping for two of my friends and my sister. I faked sign language so I wouldn’t have to talk to anyone. Guy at World Market: my shaking my head and pointing to my ear does not mean I want a credit card.

I got home and literally drank soup out of a big straw. I took a naproxen and went to the exercise bike to watch the last part of The Sing Off (Nota pwned again). I biked 8 miles in silence. I have not talked since yesterday at 2pm.

70 miles down. 30 to go.

I think I’m going to follow Lee’s suit. January 100.

It sounds like a great idea, except I have no access to exercise equipment. Also, I am really bad at exercising. Maybe I should try to do 100 crunches throughout all of January?

Story of my life

Wed, 16 Dec 2009 01:13:44 -0500

Gotta love it when you get a text at 11:30 pm on a Tuesday, you think it’s going to be from a guy, but it’s actually from a student. This is pretty much how my life goes. This is also the reason why I am considering doing my job for another year. My kids are just too awesome.

Boo ba dee boo!

Tue, 15 Dec 2009 23:54:35 -0500

I have so much enery and no where to put it! I feel like I could talk someone’s ear off right now. ahhh! I think this will turn into me going to the grocery store. I mean, I could use more groceries for sure.

Do these things exist already?

Tue, 15 Dec 2009 23:07:00 -0500

Tonight my coworkers and I discussed creative idea-type things that could somehow make us really rich. This has also been spurred on by the whole seeing Frank Warren thing and being like “why didn’t I think of PostSecret!?!” Ideas that one of my coworkers came up with: a twitter where you just log your bowel movements. Also, a twitter where you log every time you have an erection. We are extremely sophisticated in our thought process.

Also, starting a movement of group ownership of dogs. Mostly we just want a dog in the office.

Kind of comforting

Tue, 15 Dec 2009 20:31:36 -0500

I haven’t talked to a LOT of my friends from school in a long time. That being said, some things just don’t change. I love them so much. I want to be discussing these things over drinks right now.

My roommate said this morning that a guy and a girl contacted her about potentially moving in here. Of course she hasn’t yet forwarded their e-mails to me like I asked. I stalked the girl on the Book a bit, she’s 27 and seems like a nice person (as much as you can tell on the internet). Also, there’s a picture of her drinking a Magic Hat. We get along already. I think I have the guy’s name and I tried to see if he’s on the Book. There’s one guy with his name who apparently graduated from Texas State in ‘06. The picture is of him and a girl on two horses. The horse he’s on looks pretty pissy (which suggests he doesn’t actually ride), but I do strongly appreciate the effort.

Right now nut job is on the phone with one of her many Mexican dudes (not kidding), yelling and going on about who knows what. I’m guessing the dude she’s banging up here. Oh lord, please go. Let’s hope she doesn’t chase these people away from her smelly room and craziness.

Did you really refer to Facebook as “the Book?”

Yeah, it happened. Also I think I was stalking the wrong guy. Shucks?

Oh god, yes please

I hate pet names. So much. They are acceptable like once a day, maybe. Not as just a random word that is thrown into a sentence when you are talking to someone. Or in general more than 3 times a day, nevermind 3 times in 5 minutes. VOMIT.

Well that was interesting

Formspring questions and answers, in no particular order:

Three greyhounds are sitting around in a bar after a day of races. The first greyhound says “Man, I was doing so well until that third turn, when my back legs just gave out.” The second greyhound says “You know what? The same thing happened to me. I was pulling up on the lead dog, when on the third turn, I just wiped out.” The third greyhound, looking surprised responds “That’s crazy! I was actually winning my race until that damn third turn.” Meanwhile, one table over, a horse pipes in “You guys talking about that third turn?” The dogs, stunned, look at each other and say “Holy shit, is that a talking horse???”

Ha, that reminds me of one of my favorite jokes:

A dog walks into a telegram office and hands the clerk a form that says “woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof.”

The clerk reads it and says “you know, this is only nine words, you can get a tenth ‘woof’ for the same price.

“But sir,” the dog says, “then it wouldn’t make any sense”

do these pants make my ass look big?

Nah, it makes your gut look huge though.

the game

You just lost it. And so did I.

I will never participate in this. EVER. shit, I just did

You also just lost the game.

Who would you rather be best friends with: The Situation or Bill Murray? by kmarino

That’s a tough one. I think I’m gonna have to go with The Situation, mainly because we have the most in common: giant noses and rock-hard abs.

YOU’RE A GIRL! YOU’RE A FUCKING GIRL!

Your face is a girl!

*unzips* does this look like herpes?

Nah, it looks like a zipper.

What is the deal with airline food?

I know! It’s not an airline and it’s not food! Why is it called “airline food”?!

Oh wait, that’s Grape Nuts.

bahahahaha, all but two of those were me

Thunder, you were the first person I thought of when I read the herpes one. Uhhh?

Fun fact:

If a doorknob falls off of a door, you can still use your key to open it. Yay! Also, maybe don’t ever do laundry without bringing your phone. Just in case.

leeleeleelee:

So I just got to my parent’s house and there is country music playing loud as shit in our attic. Apprently, the attic got invaded by a family of squirrels (cutest infestation ever. MUCH better than the koalas). The humane way to get the squirrels out is to blast music for a full day and then board up the way they got in. And everyone knows how much squirrels hate Corb Lund and George Strait.

Squirrels have great taste.

Puppy looks like he wants to nom your junk off if you squeeze his head any more. But I know he’ll just fall asleep.
