The government sent me a little note. “B’scuse me Blythe, but despite the THOUSANDS of dollars you already graciously donated… Imma need another $40. Pay up.” Rude.
I had a pretty lazy weekend. I did finish my Bob Dylan poster, but it only took me about 1.5 hours since I already had all of the material and quotes picked out. It looks lovely, though. Skyped with ...
My visit with my dad is over. I only got to see him after work for 2 nights, but that was enough for him to give me plenty of wisdom-nuggets to percolate on in the coming weeks. My dad is going throu...
Today may be a sad day. Not for me, personally, though. I feel great. But 2 people have spontaneously burst into tears at me so far and it’s only noon. It’s possible that I have sucked al...
Well, my friends, today went my way. I thought today was going to be a long day. I thought I was going to wake up early, get AAA to start my car, take it to the mechanic and spend the rest of the day...
This article spoke to me, even though I’m not a new graduate. http://jezebel.com/5910701/con grats-new-grads-by-the-way-you -dont-know-anything I shall now refer to myself as “broke” ...
First things first, my sister also went to senior prom. While the dress suggests she liked this guy better (because boobs!), the smiles in her pictures indicated a preference for the junior prom. All...
Driving other people’s cars is scary. Even though I’ve never hit anything with my own car, I feel certain that I’m going to lose control and like… scrape an entire side of the...
As predicted, Saturday was pretty involved but not terribly unpleasant. Walking 3 miles is absolutely nothing AND I got to really take a much closer look at some of those huge Beverly Hills houses. J...
Not having a car and housesitting until mid-June is hurting my already craggy social life. I can feel people slipping away from me and I’m sad… but not enough to motivate harder. Yet. Tri...
The very first movie I worked on!
Like my new banner? Kevin and I (mostly (almost entirely) Kevin) spent several hours on it yesterday. He bought photoshop and the like recently and he’s so antsy to do projects. Which is so luc...
Well, I feel great today. I got my car back. For all my bitching, driving my car again was like coming home. Like when you adopt a puppy and you’re excited, but then you actually bring it home ...
1. I came upon $100 (earned, but unexpected). 2. My co-worker was fired, leaving me utterly and terrifyingly alone. 3. I saw Steve Martin on the street. The world is a completely unknowable place. I ...
So last night when I get on the bus, I decide to take a listen to a voicemail my grandpa left me yesterday morning. And after that, came another message from a restricted number. It was the police. T...
Let’s give this a shot. Claire’s visit was fantastic. I don’t think I’ll detail each day like I did last year because… I don’t think it would properly convey how m...
Jezebel.com informs me that part of the reason it’s difficult for people to save for retirement is that they can’t conceptualize being an older person. They find it difficult altering the...
2 Things that I would give a shit about if I had the capacity to give a shit about anything anymore: 1. On Tuesday morning, we didn’t have hot water. It was annoying, but I just didn’t ta...
Okay, we’re back. We’ve got this. Okay, yes I have to cut back. But this is really just an adjustment. It would be less of a shock if I was doing something dramatic like moving. If I had ...
The floor dropped. I feel terrible. The silver linings are sparse. And I feel very guilty. Frustrated. Angry. Hopeless. Helpless. On Saturday morning I decided to FINALLY do my taxes and I learned th...
I feel pretty good now and have determined that sometimes I’ll feel fine about the car situation and sometimes I’ll feel shitty about it… but really that’s how it is with ever...
Well, the denial is on the outs. This weekend you probably wouldn’t have known I had my car stolen unless we were specifically talking about it. It didn’t crack into my consciousness VERY...
I’m going to keep this long story long. Ready? Let’s go. I woke up this morning normally. Let the dogs out. Took a shower. Made good time. I go outside to get into my car but… There...
I wouldn’t say I see celebrities ALL the time. I mean, compared to any other place I’ve lived, yes I absolutely do. But it’s really somewhere around once a month. It’s actuall...
I’ll just jump right in. Golden Rule - When Caroline was visiting I ended up telling her that sometimes I feel like I watch people make mistakes. Sometimes I just watch people put the fork in t...
Worth it. Definitely worth it.
I feel like I’m going to lose some cred when I say that after I finished the Wonder Years, I spent the weekend watching the first season of Melissa and Joey. Here’s the secret genius. 1. ...
Sunday was excellent too! It was a wonderful weekend. Possibly the beautiful weather is affecting my life attitude. On Saturday night, Corina presented me with a song that she heard on Skins series 3...
In the last 24 hours, I have completed 2 long term projects. 1. Registration COMPLETE. I LOVE AAA! It’s my second favorite membership, topped only by netflix. AAA is loyally on my team in what ...
I’m housesitting again. 17 days this month, but it’s broken up so it shouldn’t be bad. Yesterday was the hottest day so far this year. So hot that I took a “summer time nap...
