Just running in because I don't want these to go to waste:

The pianist was a young Finn named Antti Siirala and I had such a fabulous seat I could watch his hands and their ( Read more... )

My weirdo family is having a penguin-walks-into-a-bar joke face-off on Facebook. I think my brother-in-law just won.

Also, arguing with idiots on the ( Read more... )

I just got home from spending three and a half hours at the mall. My feet are killing me!

What's even worse, I went to find a birthday present for my best friend and ended up buying a long sleeve thingy for myself instead. I didn't find anything for my friend. Her birthday is today but she's out of town until tomorrow. Either I have to do some ( Read more... )
