- i start my new job on monday! i am nervous! there is apparently a day and a half of orientation and then i will have only a day and a half of actual work before i go to ithaca for a few days
( Read more... )
i like that there's a certain... coldness with tumblr. it's more detached and distant, in a way. that being said, i also miss the golden age of eljay (and hello, new eljay friend!) but i've noticed a number of people using it, again, after being so frustrated with the other various social networking doohickeys.
hello there! yes, i actually kind of like tumblr's lack of context - it's just this constant stream of internet. but i miss actual human connection.
yep, i've definitely noticed a resurgence in personal posts. people definitely don't use lj to do "blog-type" posts anymore, but they definitely take advantage of the friends-lock function.
...and it actually worked crazy good. Went from seeing like floods of roaches every time we got up in the morning to seeing maybe one every two to three weeks.
We bought two syringes, but we only ever ended up needing one. Just make sure you put it places where other animals cannot reach, obviously, cause it smells like peanut butter and I am guessing it is not safe for them to ingest (we didn't have any pets when we got it).
yeah i am tired of the ranting too. i can't see that any useful dialogue comes out of the ranting, it is good that someone is saying things but i feel like they're being said into a void. i just don't think people change their minds about stuff because someone preaches to them on the internet? it also depresses me that i think this though. maybe i am too cynical.
tumblr is goofy but I like having pretty pictures to look at when I'm in office-hell all day.
my old apartment was roach central -- like "Joe's Apartment"-level roach central. nothing I did ever helped (except moving), so I don't have any good advice, but I feel your pain!
