phillip: I’ve come up with a New Years Resolution! I haven’t been drinking Coke for the last month and it feels so much better. I actually haven’t been able to bring myself to drink it, even when it would be nice/convenient. I just imagine it dissolving my teeth and giving me headaches.

sarahlane: You know you’re having a case of the Mondays when you waste ten minutes trying to squeeze into a too-small parking space right near the front door of your office, only to have to give up and park about a ten-minute walk away, though you know your brand-new stiff leather pumps with the narrow toe are not ready for that kind of journey yet. Then as you’re opening the car...

peterwknox: Just read this interesting article in Time Magazine about how romance is linked to smell. We respond to olfactory cues and in fact, smell helps us narrow our choices of potential partners. MHC (the major histocompatibility complex), a set of genes that controls the immune system and influences tissue rejection is especially critical. You jive best with a partner whose MHC is...

Pizza Guy: (mumbles)
Me: What did you say?
Pizza Guy: I asked what month is June?
Me: What do you mean?
Pizza Guy: I mean what's the number? You know like February is 2.
Me: Serious? It's 6, June is the sixth month. Wow...can you repeat my order now please? I need to know you have this right.
Wow!! That's just as bad as the girl from work expecting to receive an $800 tax rebate.
Can I place a blame?
Everytime I see pictures or hear news of a young couple getting married, I am immediately stricken with jealousy. I am 23 and nowhere close to marriage. It still baffles me to see couples much younger than I already settling down. The only thing that keeps me from buying a machine gun and going on a shooting rampage to all these youngsters’ weddings is knowing that I am not ready for...

One more thing before I fall asleep
A kind reader sent me this poem, which I read for the first time when I was quite young, maybe 15 or 16. It certainly means more to me now.After a While (You Learn) by Victoria ShofftstalAfter a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul. And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning, and company doesn’t always mean security. And you begin to learn that...
WatchThe first time I saw this, I stayed up pretty late trying to learn it. I could only find a podcast of it, so it’s one of the few songs that I hear in Itunes when away from my external hard drives. I have until “guyana and still” memorized thus far. — ericlodwick Peru!!
WatchBo Fo’ Sho (via alextremist, gtmcknight) All Bo’s videos are great. — jacobbijani White boys are funny. And smart too.
“How would you feel if you had no fear? Feel like that. How would you behave...”
– Vernon Howard Great advice for when you’re feeling low.
I sat here way too long..
It’s taken me almost four hours to get through almost 45 pages of posts from people I am following. I have decided to stop following a few people who rarely post and whose posts I don’t find interesting. Hopefully this will make life more easier .. well hopefully I can have a life now. :-) And now to reblog what I liked..
