Now she’s gone all over the floor again, and I’m feeling incredibly uneasy. It doesn’t help that I have to pick it up off the carpet. :-S 02:43 PM June 30, 2008 from web
Kay slept through most of it but it’s probably better she did. I don’t know what we were thinking going out so soon after “feeling better.” 02:41 PM June 30, 2008 from Socialthing!
We were feeling a bit better yesterday late afternoon so we saw the Wall-E movie in the theatre.. SO CUTE and definitely recommend! 02:41 PM June 30, 2008 from Socialthing!
I managed to pick up a weaker form of the bug, and it seemed to only have affected me last night in the middle of the night. 02:40 PM June 30, 2008 from Socialthing!
Kay picked up a random bug from her babysitter and her entire family. She was puking throughout the morning and once last night. 02:39 PM June 30, 2008 from Socialthing!

My Flickr Pro account expired today, and it’s taking everything in me to resist going against my debt-reduction plan.. and stay strict. :-( 11:02 PM June 25, 2008 from Socialthing!

Ugh, can’t sleep.. Keep dreaming that i’m replaying my day at work, except my mind is too tired to process details. So it’s like redoing my day entirely with a pen that has run out of ink. So frustrating! Why can’t i just sleep?? :-‘( 04:42 AM June 19, 2008 from txt

VideoSong: Radiohead/Chopin Mashup
A VideoSong is a new medium with two rules: 1. What you see is what you hear (no lip-syncing for instruments or voice). 2. If you hear it, at some point you see it (no hidden sounds).

Since I was about twelve years old, I wanted to try and invent an alternative fuel made from everyday materials. I’ve since discovered a love for microbiology while getting my Bio degree. If I could help research this even more, I think I would be incredibly fulfilled with my career.

Just realizing that Jason Bateman (of Arrested Development) was the chick’s fiance’ from the movie “Juno.”
That’s when you know you’re a good actor.. when I’m able to fall in love with all the seperate characters (oblivious to the fact that they’re all played by the same person) and not an actor playing all the characters exactly the same way.
Tumblr Tags, Anyone?
So I know we can tag our Tumblr posts, but there is absolutely no way to search our tumblr to isolate entries by tag. What??

INT. LISA'S KITCHEN - MORNING
Lisa has just peeled a banana for Kay and handed it to her.
Kay: "Thanks."
Lisa: "Thanks..? For the banana? Momma?"
Kay: "You're welcome."
Zoom in on Lisa's disappointed but amused face.
Cue applause.
Fade to black.
Roll credits.

OMGosh, if only I could be in college again — I would absolutely, totally love using this.
So is it mandatory for doctors’ offices to call patients about 24hrs in advance of their appointment? I made a note to call my doc this morning after missing an appt. last week. I totally spaced on the date and time of my next appointment, but I knew it was “soon.” Of course I got side-tracked doing XYZ things around the house (not to mention DH went to the boards today, omg!!! ...
Paul, I spent like 25 minutes at your site, GroceryCoupons.net, amazed at your variety of coupons available. I selected several that I was interested in, but unfortunately I encountered several problems. First, I could NOT figure out how to register! There was only a log in box at the home page, and I attempted to enter new information in these fields (my email address and a password) and...

I HATE THIS PRODUCT.
So we used to be a strictly-Cascade family. Then, while shopping at the Dollar Store for some bleach, I thought I’d get some more dishwashing liquid. Well right next to our trusty regular Cascade brand was this Citrus Apple Splash Palmolive eco+ phosphate-free “cleans to a sparkling shine” Gel Dishwashing Detergent. I don’t know if it was the white bottle or the sliced...
