Dramarama at Strike! Thus DJ wins my heart!
Bowling + tequila shots = awesome.
They gave me a backpack sized bag for an Airport Express and 2 ITMS gift cards. Now I don’t need to buy a bag to get running shoes to work!
February 2008
Just got a nice disco nap in. Ready for some bowling and cocktails!
Bowling happy hour is now bowling evening. Now I have time to eat real dinner instead of Strike’s bar food!
Had a morning of school followed by nearly unbridled consumerism. Came home, ran, heading to happy hour bowling later. I love days off!
Only with Ticketmaster can two $36 tickets cost me $96.80.
Bathroom inexplicably smells like popcorn. I am NOT complaining.
So, I brought my running shoes to work. I have a rather large building, and I’m gonna go around it a couple times to see how it goes.
Working on what is hopefully my last big database.
So I brought said running shoes (but no hat or gloves) because I was under the assumption that it would be more than 28 degrees out today.

I seem to be missing out on the twittering haywire hijinks!
(it was all very good though)
100% sure that I just spoiled my dinner with jalapeño pumpernickel pretzel sandwiches and butter toffee peanuts washed down with a latte.
Trying SO HARD to not bitch my way through the day.
Listening to someone try to dispute his quiz results. It’s cutting into my learning time!
Spending another afternoon at work worrying about things I have to do at home. Upside: ALL to-do lists are up to date (even the work one).
Just received an inter-office envelope - now I have a burning desire to get a MacBook Air to stick in it.
Putting up photos of DC to remind myself that just because I work in Hanover doesn’t mean a damn thing. Effing Hanover. Updating my resume.
Can already tell this is going to be a long, tedious day.
Oh Today show, you are an constant source of early morning entertainment. Meredith Viera’s basketball jersey is totally on backwards.
Dear Jim Handly, When “playing” Guitar Hero, please don’t just hang the guitar around your neck by the strap. It’s not jewelry.
I would not mess with Julia Sugarbaker.
Made my first lunch break Starbucks run to my new work Starbucks. Discovered Potbelly and Cold Stone are there too. Dammit.
In the Greek yogurt war of ‘08, I’m declaring Fage the hands down winner over Oikos.
Baltimore area media jokes certainly have taken on a whole new dimension thanks to The Wire. “Cecil B. DeWire,” anyone?
Listening to the meeting’s web stream. This year’s theme is flight. EVP making everyone watch a “pretend safety video” - vintage Arb PR.
Phase 2 of dialing in to today’s all-employee meeting is complete. “Too much work to make up between the rescheduled move and the weather.”
Phase one of dialing in to tomorrow’s all-employee meeting instead of physically going is complete. Do not want.
Wilford Brimley should be contractually obligated to appear in every commercial related to “the diabetus.”
Oh Lindsay Czarniak… Why so orange?
Watching SNL’s return then going to bed. If I could be Tina Fey, I so would.
Finally did my first run using Nike+. I don’t think it counts as a run at 16’24, but my legs feel heavy nonetheless.
I just had to sign a credit card receipt. It felt so old fashioned.
Ooh I’m sending this from a MacBook Air that just freed up on the sales floor! Fantastic!
Organizing my day. Good combo of work and home stuff to do. Tempted to make it a home alone “sausage and peppers and pop tarts” evening.
Dear sweet potato, you, butter and brown sugar are an awesome way to end this day of general slackassery and awesome fashion choices. &l …
Knee high socks+random football shorts+Terps hoodie=strange outtake from a bad American Apparel shoot. Wonder where these shorts came from.
Snow day snow day snow day, no school and no work, just cashmere socks, brie and bauguette, and Wii!
What is going on here, it was snowing when I left Kensington but by the time I got home, nothing. I need a day off, weather gods!!

Got some cashmere socks and some chunky cable knit knee highs. Also all the junk food from yesterday. I am ready for this alleged snowstorm.
So I got here and my computer is gone. Moving early because of the weather tomorrow. All of my work is on there. Going to the mall.
Not sure what to make of a body shop that wants me to make an appointment just to make an estimate. Guess we’ll find out soon.
Getting another estimate today, then work, then a thing tonight. Then hopefully so much snow that school gets cancelled tomorrow morning.
What do I make of body shops that require appointments for estimates? I make them my favorite, they were $90 cheaper than the first shop.
