I actually hate it when people tell me to smile. I’ll smile when I have a reason to smile, jackass. Plus it’s just rude. And possibly bullyish. Yeah.

You never sound that enthusiastic when it’s ME calling you.

I feel like I must have shared this with you before. It’s just the sort of thing I would. Incredibly beautiful, but also sad.

I was testing the milk.

I just think the term “self care” sounds kinda pervy. Is that just me?

Ha.

Too much humidity. It’s that time of the year where I have to stop blow drying my hair and embrace the ‘fro. Already.

I have no focus this week at all. It’s terrible.

I really need to get going on this course catalog. Or this procedure manual. Or any one of thirty seven thousand other things that fall under my domain. I do not get paid enough.

Oh, I’m sorry. Am I boring you?

I stumbled upon this bearded fellow on Youtube. I kind of love it.

Also on the list of things I’m loving: The new Civil Wars single. Damn.

I don’t always care for those mash ups.

Look. I can’t top that shit. Give it up.

I don’t know what that means.

Mine doesn’t glow in the dark.

Aw, Nashville, I’ve only ever driven through you, but you just made me kind of love you.

Trouble Will Find Me is the perfect traveling music.

I dunno. If they asked me, I’d probably have to make that trip again.

If it weren’t for the weather …

Oh Lord.

Oops. I used that photo twice. I wonder if anyone noticed.

I should probably water these plants.

Michigan was the first state to do away with capital punishment in 1846.

Everyone has something to hide. Don’t be ridiculous.

I don’t want it to be funny, and yet it’s kinda funny.

So apparently Kalamazoo cops have Segways now.

It’s knit in public week. Are there still people who won’t knit in public?

waiting here

Just FYI, if you’re on a plane, it no longer qualifies as a road trip.

Yes please.

Michigan gas prices are the highest in the continental US. For absolutely no reason. I’m more than a little pissed off about this.

I don’t think this bamboo is doing well, really.

I had no idea pianos needed tuning that often.

Well, let that be a reminder to you.

I should have learned an instrument.

Shit. I moved my monitors and now they’re all wonky. I can’t find the proper placement!!!

My hair is a disaster.

WHAT??? EWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Chevy Chase has reached that period of his life that some men reach where he really just creeps me out because you know he’s just a slimy perv.

I’m having a really tremendously hard time getting back into the office scene. I don’t belong in an office.

Pretty sure we’re on Rockwell overload this month. (Also, Solove’s paper is in short form here.)

I am too!

Can’t get enough of it.

Honestly, I don’t know why they don’t just give it to me.

I maintain that Ed Gein was NOT a serial killer.

I know you’re thinking that this sounds like something I would do (more so the Tanner kid than Julieanne) but no, I never wrote to any serial killers.

I did send my underpants to Black Label Skateboards once …

Nudge some crazies, etc.

Borders are just a good idea.

with my

Man. Do we really have to do this today?

Orwell vs. Huxley.

I want to be in that audience, please.

I should prolly oughta update that thing.

Um. OK. Still, probably a better gift idea than this.

Field trip!

It’s just insulting.

So being conservative is the new gay. I’m claiming discrimination. I’m oppressed. Reparations!

Oh, bravo. Truly, your intellect is towering.

But. I NEED them.

I’m trying on a new scent. I don’t know. It’s kinda spicy, which I like. Not sure yet. Somebody smell me.

just get up an go

Also for the record, this is not how I take my tea.

Oh for crying out loud.

Vine. Hmm.

Yep. I can see how that would make you think of me.

If I were to ever get pregnant again, I’d want all my maternity clothes to come from this place.

I need a snack.

Oh you wish, MSNBC.

I still don’t understand the Bitcoin thing.

So where is this severe thunder storm?

Maybe.

Oops.

That won’t do at all.

Well. You don’t work at the front desk.

I don’t think Facebook needs hashtags. Then again, I never use Twitter any more, and frankly, sometimes hashtags are useful tools of sarcasm or more mundane explanation. So never mind. Hashtag it up, Facebook.

Should I cut my hair all short again? I can’t believe I’ve managed to go this long without hacking it all off. This is the longest it’s been in probably 25 years. That doesn’t make me sound old at all.

What books do you just hate? Number 1 on my list, for all time, A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius. I get pissed off just thinking about how much of my time was wasted by that melodrama.

Bad gas?!? Bastards. Not only are gas prices SIXTY FRAKKING CENTS higher than the rest of the country, but the gas is bad too??? Fuck that noise.

I need a motorcycle.

Wow, that’s kind of hard to listen to.

Oh wow, so beautiful!

Wait, I was going to stop saying wow. Help me out. I don’t know what to replace it with.

My HUGE vocabulary and I somehow always end up using the same small group of words over and over.

They have days of the week underpants! I’ve never had days of the week underpants!

I wonder why no one makes numbered underpants. I’d just wear random numbers all the time. 7. 13. 52. 3. 14. 9.

Someone’s going to play those numbers in the lottery now and win cash. YOU HAVE TO SHARE WITH ME!

I need a new hair color. I’m bored.

I don’t think this storm is happening. WTF, universe? I was really looking forward to a good thunderstorm.

Well, apparently he decided he was smart enough and just stopped.

Can I get this on a t shirt?

I feel like I’m talking to someone on a psych ward. Or a 3 year old. Sometimes those seem like the same thing.

“You are fading, just a bit.”

Oh Dear Lord. You’ve lost your argument when you throw in the “Let’s agree to disagree!” bullshit. God forbid you should ADMIT THAT YOU’RE WRONG.

Excuse me?? I was never a scenester. How insulting.

I love this. Really, I do.

While I agree with a lot of what Stossel says here, (always have), I have to disagree about not being worried about the spying. I would think that, as a Libertarian, Stossel would be more concerned at the fact that, yes, we share a lot, but Google isn’t likely to throw any of us in prison because they suddenly decide we might be a threat to national security because of a thought. Or worse. Droned.

I’m not interested in willingly relinquishing my civil rights just on the off chance that the feds maybe might stop a terrorist.

Honestly. TSA, people. They can’t stop a bomb when it’s right in front of them. Never. NEVER put that much faith in a ruling body.

I think I’m going to have to try that tea.

libertarianerd girl.

That was potentially very embarrassing.

Disaster hair.

I was serious about the meat tenderizer. Best thing for a sting.

Fuuuuuuuuu All this weather and my head has felt fine all day. Until now. I’ve got a doozy coming on.

New migraine medicine is running out of my nose. The hotness.

Oh yes. The hotness.
