diy computer repair
Some errant drips of coffee from my coffee thermos somehow leaked onto my netbook in my bag and the keys stopped working. Amazingly, I fixed this by putting rice on the keyboard over night and then the next night having the netbook sit open on top of my hot radiator. And now it is as good as new. -

I seem to get angry at myself whenever I have an emotional response to anything, like it is a display of my shortcomings as a human being. But I cannot be completely robotic all the time. -
is it silly to still act like I am pissed off?
I decided to eat my lunch in the cafeteria today and my coworker that I am friendly with motioned me to come eat with him. He was sitting next to the guy who kissed me back in August so I just shook my head and quickly walked away. It feels silly to act like that when it happened so many months ago, but I feel like if I don't show that guy how ( Read more... ) -
My friend
I am so glad my job has a faculty cafeteria, I can buy my coffee and drink it in peace and quiet without being hit on by intellect-less eighteen year olds (when will people start noticing how OLD I am. I have trouble just convincing waiters I am over 21.)I am still friends with my friend who blew off because of a guy on my birthday. I just am aware ( Read more... ) -
friends who put men first, even on your birthday
I am a little upset with my best friend, and I am someone that almost never gets angry, especially at women. She has been on this whole "I WILL NOT DIE ALONE" kick, and has been forcing herself to go on tons and tons of eHarmony dates, despite the fact that she doesn't even turn 26 for another month and a half. So some strange man that she meant on ( Read more... ) -
feminist overload, blech.
My book review assignments have gotten a little stale, probably because the magazines I review books for are almost all feminist magazines which seriously limits the types of books I am assigned ( Read more... ) -

I guess my roommate is angry at me because I do not answer his emails or messages because I am busy. I sometimes leave my laptop on and then go out for the day. He wrote me some angry im saying I disrespect him by not answering his instant messages, so I said I think knocking on someone's door at 4:30 a.m. is disrespectful, so he wrote this ( Read more... ) -

I had to write my boss at my new job this morning and tell her I will be missing some of my hours as I have to go to my old job and meet with my boss to resolve my schedule problems. My only reasons for feeling like I need to stay there are the higher pay and the union benefits. But my new job provides health insurance, though some of the cost has ( Read more... ) -
do you honestly think I would go on a date? I mean really...
I am kind of annoyed/surprised that whenever I hang out with anyone who is male people will for some reason think that that means I am on a date and there is something sexual going on with said male. It makes me want to say "You are not a very observant person, are you ( Read more... ) -
Last Night
I hung out with my friend Brieanne yesterday. We were supposed to go to this uber cheesy fashion show where we were both on the list because we are journalists that write about useless things like tote bags, jewelry lines, indie rock albums, and obscure theater no one will ever go see ( Read more... )
