It’s more comfy than a bag and I carry a lot of shit around. Well you...

Today I want to buy all the things. I’m trying to use Pinterest and DIY blogs to deflect the impulse, but I’m pretty sure the only thing really stopping me is that I have literally no money until I get paid in a few days.

What do you call a water/drinking fountain?
thatonegirlsierra: whosthegirlwearingthedress: I call it a bubbler, with a soft r. Isn’t it a cute thing to call it?! What do you call the directionals in a car? Directional or blinker? I switch between the two. I say directional when inside the car, but blinker when I’m looking at someone else’s car. ”They’ve left their blinker on for five minutes now!” I would be kidding myself if I said I...

Leaving for Memphis tomorrow for a week!
Via Nashville. Haven’t packed or done any of the things I need to do before I go though …  But my body hates me, so all I can manage at the moment is to sit immobile under my heating pad. Maybe I will be all crazy and just throw some things in a bag 15 minutes before I leave! Instead of laying everything out on the bed in categories, and matching outfits etc. That would be WILD....

So far I want both the Japanese and the Italian women’s wardrobes. (This is the best photo I could find, but her dress, shoes, and purse are great. And she’s NIcoletta Braschi, i.e. Roberto Benigni’s wife.)

My cat has an automatic feeder that dispenses food three times a day. Even though she spends most of her day upstairs in my bedroom, she can hear it when it releases the food down in the kitchen, Most of the time.  If she doesn’t hear it, though, she doesn’t go looking for food when she’s hungry. She knows when it’s time to eat, because she starts to whine and get in my...

It’s like reading a terrible blog, or maybe a spam email that is just a jumble of words and sentences stuck together. Fuck this book. I’m not even going to bother.

This book is also filled with alliteration and cutesy chapter titles based on Beatles’ songs and movies. Sounds fun, maybe, but it’s not.

I was pretty excited to read this book about a certain Roman author’s writings about country villas, but now that I’ve cracked it open, the writer (i.e. the modern scholar guy) is trying to be all postmodern and artistic or something and ugh. I don’t want to have to interpret/translate your interpretation of another work. Just tell me about it. Use your words. Try to combine...

The Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear polishes come in such great colors, and they work so well, and they cost like $2. I got these today: (Going Green. It’s what I was hoping Julep Leah was going to look like.) (Lacey Lilac) They’re probably filled with all those terrible poisons though, right?

Okay now Adobe called me back and put me on hold. I am less impressed. They seem to be playing the soundtrack to a Jean-Claude Van Damme movie.

Okay, so I guess a bajillion people are trying to use the Adobe website right now, and I keep getting an error when I try to submit my order. So I called their direct sales number, and there is a 16-20 minute wait, BUT you can just enter your phone number and they will call you back when they’re free. You don’t lose your place in the queue. Why can’t all companies do this?...

corona—graminea replied to your post: OMG you (academic/college) guys definitely do the download. you might lose the disks but if you still have the download link you can replace it a lot easier Okay, good to know. Replacement was what I was worried about, since I’m not sure how much longer this computer is going to last.

Adobe has 80% off student/teacher editions of products right now with the code SAVE80EDU. That means I can finally have Photoshop, and it will only cost $40! Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition … that’s the real deal, right? Should I download it, or have them send me the disk?

High-Low Hem
girlwithcurves: I love the romantic silhouette of a high-low hem- it’s ethereal and flowy, sexy without being overt, yet classy with a hint of glam. It’s also a great alternative to a maxi, which can be overwhelming on those petite in height, and not always long enough on taller girls like myself.

Brigitte Bardot offers support to Le Pen

This is not native!: Check out my new blog! →
bbanzaiz: this-is-not-native: I’ve wanted to make something like this for a while now. Think of it as the angry lovechild of This is Not Grunge and My Culture is Not a Trend. My goal is to call out and educate as many people as possible who use the #native american tag (among others) to post shit like this: Because…  Bless this blog.

I'm grumpy today.
So the most serious thing I want to think about is whether or not I made the right decision in choosing the Teen Vogue Birchbox for next month, despite being a grown-ass 30-year-old woman. But I like Essie. But Teen Vogue? How am I supposed to know which choice was the right one?

How Gel Nail Polish Changed Manicures →
And then, after three weeks with the same nail polish on, the other thing I hate about gel nail polish was that THREE WEEKS LATER I STILL HAD THE SAME DANG NAIL POLISH ON. To me, a chip in my polish is just an opportunity to grab some wine, turn on a DVR’d episode of  Semi-Homemade Cooking with Sandra Lee and hang out with myself and some paint. This. I do wish I could go more than 2...
