Hey Mr. DJ
An Open Letter to the Five “big” local FM stations: Dear DJs, Can we stop with the sad songs each and every song all day long today? Even the rock station is playing weepy Emo songs. And when the country station is starting to sound the most optimistic – well there’s a problem. I’ve really … Continue reading Hey Mr. DJ
To Brew, or not to Brew
They have upped the coffee prices 36% in the Cafeteria.
This right around the time my poor addled brain and weary body are starting to demand two paco-sized mugs* a day instead of just one.
And y’all – I am already running myself into the poor house (why must you taunt me with your bonus time Clinique!)
So the dilemma is this: Do I get up early enough to brew a cuppa joe before I head out in the morning, likely negating the need for two cups at all – since it means I’ll actually be awake before I leave? Or do I just suck it up and fork out the cashola in exchange for that extra 20 mins of sleep?
Other points to consider: The cafeteria coffee here is among the most rancid I’ve ever tasted. My coffee consists of freshly ground premium beans (think Seattle based java emporium – I know someone who gets her “free pound of beans a week” and doesn’t drink the stuff), filtered water, and steamed soymilk.
What would Jesus you do?

Going Postal
My local Canada Post employees are the most INCOMPETENT FUCKERS EVER. That is all. Anyone have a photocopier I can kick the shit out of? Continue reading Going Postal
Signs
You know it’s likely going to be an interesting week when you wake up to your alarm, and your first thought is to shout at it something to the tune of: “PC LOAD LETTER?? WHAT THE FUCK!!!?!?!” Someone’s got a case of the Mondays. Continue reading Signs
Crackle
I always miss having a fireplace when the first fall weather rolls in. There’s something about the warmth and the crackling and the coziness of a fire and some hot tea and a good book that makes it seem like everything perfect is hunkered down there with me in my living room. Somehow I doubt … Continue reading Crackle
Eep.
Hi. My name is Jen and I am TOTALLY IRRESPONSIBLE. Someone please take away my credit cards, and DO NOT let me anywhere near the mall. I just checked my online banking statement, and all I can say is thank God this chair has armrests, or I may have fallen off of it completely. Continue reading Eep.
Charge It
I am going to die broke, with a fabulous library. Inspired by this article (courtesy of one Mr. Barefoot) I purchased both Rebel Sell, and Rabbit, Run. This is in addition to yesterday’s purchase of Shopaholic and Sister – though I purchased that as an ebook (much less expensive than the hardcover that’s available right … Continue reading Charge It
GRAAAAAAAAAH
I am just a complete mess of angry hormones today. Actually, make that a lack of hormones – which is making me very short tempered. That will be remedied tomorrow afternoon, when I will swing in the complete opposite direction and be so full of hormones that I will weep at the drop of a … Continue reading GRAAAAAAAAAH
Waiting to Exhale
This week has felt absolutely grueling. I have no idea why, but it’s like time just slowed down to a snail’s pace. Monday feels like a year ago. I am SO glad it’s Friday. In other news, the first official week of Weight Watchers was a success. I lost 1.6 lbs. Not huge, but a … Continue reading Waiting to Exhale
Macauley Moment
If only my inconveniences and distractions were as small as keeping a couple of dimwitted wannabe thieves out of my house while I’m alone at Christmas time by rigging up potentially dangerous but ultimately amusing booby traps using toys and household items.
I wish.
Instead, I’ll just adopt the scream and try not to kill anyone who interrupts me for the rest of the afternoon.

Ice Princess
This training room is still damn cold. They dangled hope in front of our faces by saying that “there are now three heating complaints for the [bigass] building – so I guess we’ll have someone come in to fix it.” But we are not fooled! And it is still not fixed. What we are is … Continue reading Ice Princess
Addendum
Oh yah, and another thing… Why on earth do I have to get sick now, when I have no boyfriend to whine to, and come over and make me tea and rub my feet, and grab me in inappropriate places so I can pretend it pisses me off but secretly love how he loves me … Continue reading Addendum
WAKE THE FUCK UP
This entry title is a “note to self.” I was asleep before 11pm. There’s no good reason why I couldn’t have gotten up at 6:30 and out of the house by 7:30. But no. Stupid “flex time” bit me in the ass again. I was up at 7:45 and didn’t get out of the house … Continue reading WAKE THE FUCK UP
Guten Morgen
The office is freezing. The coffee burnt my tongue, and it tastes like ass (extra annoying considering it’s not free). My pants are falling down, because the belt I bought is too big. I’m waiting for work to arrive via courier – until it does, I get to do exciting things like stuff envelopes. I … Continue reading Guten Morgen
