Scorpio – InfoSpace

I really like this one today…put a smile on my face. It might be bittersweet, but it’s still a smile. I have changed the circle of friends a few times, but the people I call my peers now seem to be a mix of much older and much younger. On one end really professional and on the other end they’re still in school and trying to make ends meet. I like it…it feels like a good mix.

Cheers to getting it right Astrology folks.

“It’s time for you to admit something: Your values have changed. What used to be important no longer matters. That means it’s time to make some changes — some big changes, especially when it comes to the people you call peers. Fortunately, you’re more than ready, even if it means saying goodbye to people, things or ways of life that were once the most important thing in the world to you.”

I love Oreo cookies

This is not to be confused with other posts (that I cannot be bothered to link to right now) about candy, cookies or other things I like to eat. This is just about Oreo cookies.

Last night while shopping for toilet paper I saw Oreos were on sale. The question was, do I get Double Stuff, Regular or whatever else they were selling…? Regular. I donno about you, when when I shop for toilet paper I always think about food. Right. I know you do too.

Anyway. I bought a bag of Oreos…then kinda didn’t think about them until I was about to get into bed. Then I was like “Oooh I have Oreos in here!” so as I am standing in my room, in my pjs (right) I opened up the bag of Oreos.

I only ate two. Then I went to bed. Now all day all I wanted to do was eat one freaking Oreo!!

Valentine’s Day

Why does this guy have it so right and the rest of us have it so wrong? Valentine’s day @ zefrank.com

I guess some traditions get lost…

“If you think about it, saying ‘I love you’ on Valentine’s Day means less then it does pretty much any other day of the year; it’s like there’s inflation on the currency of romance or something.”

Even better…

it occurs to me:

flowers are the only things you can kill, wrap up in paper and give to someone without it being creepy.

for example: here’s some dead puppies. they’re red. irish setters. red means i love you.

Happy Valentine’s Day*!

I spill things

Last night while I was reading I decided I was done with studying and I wanted to get ready for bed…and read a different book. I reached over for my bookmark (yes I use bookmarks) and decided it would be a great idea to knock over a 12oz glass of water with excessive force in the general direction of my bookshelf…general direction being that the bookshelf opening is 2 inches from the full glass of water.

I must have subconsciously decided that it was a good idea to aim in the general direction of my books…a specific section of books. Yes that’s right THAT section. Oh, maybe haven’t mentioned that before. So I have these books where some are rare (and old) and others are just old…like 100 years and approaching 100 years. Along with some historical documents I keep in that section I also have a limited edition of LIFE I bought a year ago that’s from the 50’s. Thankfully the water just decided it didn’t want to get anything of value wet and it went on my floor…how? I have NO idea. Physics doesn’t allow for what happened, but I’ll take it.

You would have thought I would learn a lesson after someone else spilled water on a $500 comic book collection. Nope…I learned NOTHING.

I’m smart. :)

PostSecret

I love this website PostSecret (as most of you know), but I might be annoyed with the flood of Valentine’s Day postcards. Yuck. As if the cards were not depressing enough to start with now I have to think about love during the largest commercial holiday next to Christmas! Blah.

Parking

Why is it so hard for so many people to park correctly?

Today while leaving for lunch someone had parked so close to me on the driver’s side that I had to get in on the passenger side and climb over the console to get into my car. The worst part is the person that parked on the passenger side was parked almost as close at at a crazy angle so getting out was next to impossible.

To further prove that people are stupid at parking…when I stopped at the bank I parked in the “ATM” spot, right next to the handicap spot with the extra wide zebra stripes so it’s handicap van accessible. Someone pulled up behind me in an SUV, paused, then parked on the zebra stripes and had their mirror almost touching mine they were so close. CRAZY PEOPLE!!

I could tell you that all three drivers were women, but that would start a fight -even though it’s true. Ha!
