As today is my birthday, I decided to take the day off from work (a little birthday present to myself). Ah, three day weekends, there are far too few of you. To celebrate, I went to the movies yesterday and finally got to see A Single Man. It was quiet, depressing and beautiful. I'm still thinking about the ending and I how I feel about it.

Shit, I just went to spell check my post and it all disappeared. Grr, let's try this again...

If anyone is bored and has nothing better to do, do you want to help me decide what to eat for breakfast tomorrow? I'm going to this place called the Egg Harbor Cafe for a co-worker's birthday, and I've never been there before. Here's their breakfast menu. ( Read more... )

I had a very low key birthday, which is just how I like them. I woke up this morning feeling kind of cruddy, so that sucked. My head felt funny, but once I got out of bed and moved around, my head was fine, but my stomach felt funky. I couldn't eat anything, but since we planned on going to the movies I decided to get ready and go with it. ( Read more... )

I wish that I brought a camera with me to work today. Some of my co-workers decorated my office for my birthday, and it looks really good! There are streamers, stars, a banner, and balloons scattered everywhere. They put this stuff all over my desk too, and I feel stupid because I don't even know what you'd call it - glitter? confetti? They're ( Read more... )

Movies...

Saturday was my mom's birthday. She decided that she wanted to go to the movies, but we all had a hard time agreeing on what to see. It was finally narrowed down to Revolutionary Road and Inkheart. We eventually picked the latter because (1) my sister has been dying to see the movie (she's a big fan of the book), (2) it was playing on ( Read more... )

Man, it's brutal out there. So, so brutal. Heh, sorry, I'm just making fun of our local weatherman. I was watching Today this morning while getting ready for work, and the local news always pops up about every 15 minutes or so. Every time he came on, the weatherman said the word "brutal." Okay, we get it. It's fucking cold out. Brutal is a ( Read more... )

Random, unrelated thoughts on a Friday afternoon ( Read more... )

Aaannnddd...I'm back! Ok, I never even mentioned that I was going away, but I'm home now after being in Indianapolis since Tuesday. I went there for a work conference, so it wasn't a very exciting trip. Originally, my boss and my co-worker Laura were going to go, but then our board wouldn't let our boss go, so I took her place. Getting there ( Read more... )

Usually I like snow, but today it was a major pain in my ass. My boss had a late lunch meeting today, and on her drive back to the office she called me and Laura and told us to just leave because traffic was horrible. She said that it would probably take me an hour and half to drive home, but I didn't believe her. Yeah, she was right and I was ( Read more... )

My last week as a 23 year old. I always say that I don't really care for birthdays, and it is still true. To me, 24 seems so much older than 23. But I remember last year when I thought that 23 was so much older than 22. It's just that 24 is almost 25, and then 25 is right between 20 and 30. They say age is just a number, and I agree with that ( Read more... )
