The One Week Digital Cleanse

jhnmyr: Mention to anyone with computer savvy that your laptop has somehow gotten slower over recent months and they’ll ask you the same thing: “have you defragmented your hard drive?” Defragmenting works by taking small slivers of information stored in various locations and consolidating them so that they’re in the same place on the drive and thus easier to access in larger chunks. Hard drive...

Tea time!

So I just made tea for the first time with my new teakettle! My new WHISTLING teakettle. I honestly had no idea what to expect b/c I’ve always just microwaved water. Isn’t that awkward? Microwaving water? The concept seems pretty contrived. Anyway, water in a mug, press the 1 min. express button and bam. Pretty simple stuff. But with a teakettle it’s a whole new...

Hooray, I'm free!

Well, kinda. I just emailed my professor my last “mini-project” but I still feel like I have a burden on my shoulders. I think it’s b/c I didn’t give the project my full effort and I know if I would’ve taken more time on it I could’ve done a better job. But I’M DONE! Except, now I don’t really know what to do. It’s so awkward being home...

I am, invariably, pissed off. I’m sick of making excuses for people and sick of counting on people. They will no doubt let you down in the end, b/c let’s face it - most people only care about themselves. And it’s really sad to me when people are too afraid to take risks and live a little. Do something unexpected. I know that I sure as hell don’t want people to say that...

Don't Die, Computer!

I really wish my computer would stop overheating. These fans are running at an all time high! It kind of sucks when I can’t even download a simple Word document, save a picture, or open iTunes because there’s so much shit on my computer. I don’t even know what’s taking up so much space! I’m asking for an external hard drive for Christmas, in hopes that maybe that...

Is anyone in the secondary market for peppermint...

boredintheburbs: I currently have a nonreturnable $40 worth. (Who knew you couldn’t return schnapps?!) Anyway, we’d both be doing some good: You can help me to get this off my hands, and I can help you to walk around smelling like a candy cane! HOLIDAY CHEER FOR EVERYONE! Dude, give it to Trevor, he keeps talking about that stuff! How much do you have/what brand? If it’s Rumple...

The Perfect Christmas Plan

boredintheburbs: This Friday night, I’m hosting an Ugly Christmas Sweater party for the swim club. And, after some heavy thought, I’ve decided that the best idea is for me to dress up and look my best, completely ditching the theme. Why, you ask? Well, basically so that I’ll hands down be the best looking person at my party, guaranteed. GENIUS! Swim club is a very selective group, huh?
