Home sick in pain today. Cruising upworthy today; lots of think-worthy subjects, informative, some just fun. One or two made me cry. I like a good story - it has to make me laugh, cry, or think ( Read more... )

OMG, a coworker just found a site for road-kill accessories. I wonder if the Bloggess knows about these?

Read this, this is a good article. It will teach you something, and maybe give you a laugh (which everyone needs).

I've been extremely busy lately, school started on the 11th. It seems to be going well but I'm a little frustrated with the teacher. He assigns homework pretty much every day, but doesn't collect it.

A letter I wish I could send to everyone. "Know that the context of your life is not your life, and does not own you."

Googled Letters to strangers+blog and got a short list. This blog is funny and I would totally put it on my list, except it looks like it got abandoned. The last entry was sometime in 2010. =(
