It seems like all I ever hear about anymore is people losing their jobs. I turn on the TV, people are getting laid off; I read my Friends' List, and it's either my Friends getting laid off or people they know getting laid off; newspapers talk about skyrocketing unemployment.

I just got off the phone with Comcast, and in just five short [business] days, I will be the proud owner of cable internet service. So...let's all welcome Rob to the year 2001. Favorite fact: Cable internet, even after the introductory rate expires (btw: total savings per month of my 6-month introductory rate: $8. I LOL'ed. What is even the point ( Read more... )

First of all, for anyone who hasn't seen it, my long-anticipated--and super awesome--Top 15 Entries of 2008 can be found HERE! I had a lot of fun doing it, and I hope you all have fun reading it and getting to re-live (or live for the first time ever!) my best LiveJournal entries of this year ( Read more... )

Still love Boston Legal. And it's fun that my dad loves it, too. He was lamenting tonight that it "really needs to be two hours long". Shatner and Spader are just magic together. Too bad there isn't an Emmy for "Best Duo" or something... And it's weird...the cases are always entertaining, but I can really take or leave them. That show's money is in ( Read more... )

WAH-HAH! Waugh!
