Today, we called the Toyota dealer to tell them we’d be in this Friday to give the Prius one last look before “deciding.” My mom mentioned that my only qualm with the car was the lack of AV hook-up for my iPod. The dealer then mentioned he might be able to do something about that [...]

As long as it hasn’t sold yet, I’ll be calling the car dealership tomorrow to tell them I want the Prius. I still maintain I’m terrible at making decisions.
Other than that, my main excitement of the day came  vicariously through my sister who saw Jason Segal at Rite Aid in LA. (Me=supremely jealous.) When asked [...]

Remember how I mentioned my car shopping dilemma? New vs. Hybrid? Well, today that question got a whole lot harder. 
When searching for cars in the past few weeks, I’d really only found one that I was seriously considering: A new Chevy Colbalt. It’s a good price, so I can afford to get a new one with all [...]

Number one on my list: Talking to strangers in public bathrooms.
The time: This afternoon
The location: Border’s
The situation: I’m wasting time while my mom gets a manicure in the Border’s, having a perfectly lovely afternoon, debating purchasing This American Life season 2 on DVD (the affirmative side won resulting in me spending my evening with Ira [...]

The last few days when I should have been recapping my trip to LA or my day trip to Annapolis, reading my TFA readings or  my new found novels, I’ve been online shopping…well, online window shopping, mostly for my future LA apartment. See, picking out items and decorating in my mind makes me feel less [...]

I’ve been in a weird funk all week, internet wise, and I’m not sure why, because I’ve had some things I could’ve blogged about.
I started working part-time job at a portrait studio. It’s actually the perfect part time job for me, besides the fact that I can only work for about three months before I [...]

As you may have noticed, I royally failed at NaBloPoMo this past week. I would feel bad, but as I didn’t have my laptop with me and was busy reading and having a nice time with my family, I’m alright with it. I did pretty well for my first attempt, and I’m more than ready [...]

Hello? Remember me? The owner of this little space on the internet? Yeah, me, who has trouble prioritizing blogging over things like homework, actual work, seeing friends, and um…sleeping? Yeah, that’s me. *waves* 
I hate neglecting this blog, but I’ve been so busy, that I seem to not only always have something to do, but I [...]

Last week, my friend Lauren informed me that she was driving home (which happens to be 20 minutes from my “home,” aka where my parents live), and asked if I wanted to go with her so she wasn’t sitting in her car alone for 6 hours. After checking with my mom to make sure my [...]

First of all, thank you to everyone who complimented slash congratulated me on the move and the new design. I am super excited, in case the last post didn’t confirm that enough. 
Now, on to the task at hand: This summer has not been great for a number (read: a ridiculous amount) of reasons. To help [...]
