It happened again…The NCIS:LA Car post has spiked! Hilarious. It happens every week. When I went to the Washington Auto Show in January and noted the crowd of dudes around, and then photographed (because it was ORANGE! come ON!) the new Challenger, I never imagined it’d come back to the blog. So, thanks y’all, for [...]

Thought of the Day
Posted in Posts, tagged anecdotes, finance, random on May 20, 2009 | Comments Off
You know, every so often I read something that reminds me that I graduated from college with no student debt, even though my parents (read: Dad) had to struggle to pay. And I get sort of misty about it. So, thanks. It made a huge difference. And now that costs have pretty much doubled, the [...]
Have you ever made the perfect lunch to bring with you to work, only to discover halfway through the commute that you’ve left it on the kitchen counter? Well, I left my food at home this morning, and it included breakfast, lunch, and 2 snacks. GARH! Oh, and people who are rude on the Metro, [...]

From an old BusinessWeek profile of Jim Cramer: With money he earned working as a researcher for law professor Alan M. Dershowitz, and as a miserable summer intern at the Manhattan law firm Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP, Cramer started dabbling in obscure stocks such as Standard Press Steel, American Agronomics, and Bobbie [...]
Bus Behavior
Posted in Posts, tagged anecdotes, manners, metro, wmata on October 19, 2007 | Comments Off
It’s good to see that others notice good bus behavior too! On my daily route I regularly see people offering change, giving up seats for those more needy, and telling the driver if someone is on the run for the bus. Pleasant conversations with other riders blossom from time to time as well. I used [...]
Apartment-pocalypse

For something to entertain everyone, I am providing the whole story of the state of my apartment, and the weekend. I am sitting on my sofa Saturday morning. Six days to go in my apartment. I’m drinking coffee, watching CSI, thinking about what remains to be packed, getting ready for the day. I think to [...]

RL Takes Over It’s been a few weeks! Of course, me being me, not much has happened. What a surprise. I have bought a new media player to replace the latest one I killed (iRiver, RIP). It’s a creative zen vision:m and I can’t recommend it highly enough. Plus, it’s pink and fabulous! I have [...]
The Meme of Fours

The Washington Monthly: Via Kevin, the “MEME OF FOURS….Via Roy, here’s another silly but (as usual) oddly compelling internet list meme:” Four jobs you’ve had in your life: Salesgirl at various clothing shops, library shelver, junior conference planner, web producer/developer Four movies you could watch over and over: Enchantment, Casablanca, Now, Voyager, The Lady in [...]

Wow, so it has totally been a while since I have blogged. I am bored and feel a long post coming on…. This summer has, well, basically it has SUCKED. And now that it’s finally almost over I am very relieved. Things are looking up today, actually… Work is so ridiculous that it can’t even [...]
Here I am at the oil change place before work and the girl at the register is watching Major Payne. Sigh. Of course it is a little much first thing in the morning for me! But hey, the upside is I will have time to go to au bon pain before work and get a [...]
