My friend Sam (from Denver, who just moved to Atlanta) is coming for Super Bowl Sunday!!! I am SO EXCITED! We have celebrated multiple Super Bowls together, so this is such a nice surprise! And double bonus, because I’ll get to show her around Tally on Saturday and she can meet all my ridiculous friends.
I haven’t had the best day today, so it’s really nice to have something to...

Taking a personal day today.
I have class in 30 minutes but I’m not going. Because I can’t move. Really, I am so sore from walking around Tampa all day Saturday (literally, 7am-midnight) that it hurts to even sit up in bed.
The weekend was interesting though, and if I manage to ever fully process it, I’ll tell you all about it. Right now I think I’m going to take another painkiller and go back to...
So my fun weekend out of town has quickly turned into what could very well be a horrible awkward weekend out of town, for reasons that I don’t want to get into at the moment.
I probably just shouldn’t go. But I’m stubborn. So I will. And will most likely be miserable.
I’ll tell you all the story when I get back.
(NOTE: This is only vaguely related to the question I posed...

Long day today ...
Thursdays are going to be rough this semester. I have class 11-6:30 (with a 3 hour break in the middle) which I know, doesn’t sound horrible. But it is, trust me.
Plus, I have a bazillion things to get ready before going out of town this weekend (and still don’t have concrete plans yet - I just know I’m leaving tomorrow, may or may not be driving, and have been promised we will...
vinh replied to your photo: Such a cute movie! It’s French (yay, subtitles!)…
Watched this last week. Im not ashamed to admit a man crush on him.
No reason at all to be ashamed of that. Did you notice her fiance was the dude from The Walking Dead? I think the only thing that could have made the movie any better would have been if he had to fight zombies at the end.

Lawsuit to Taco Bell: Where's the beef? →
The meat mixture sold by Taco Bell restaurants contains binders and extenders and does not meet the minimum requirements set by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to be labeled as “beef,” according to the legal complaint.
…
Attorney Dee Miles said attorneys had Taco Bell’s “meat mixture” tested and found it contained less that 35 percent beef.

sharingtime answered your question:Do you have any preferred websites for finding good hotel deals?
travelzoo’s the best! but I think they only do major tourist destinations.
Thanks, I’ll check it out!

Trying to find a not crazy expensive hotel for Gasparilla this weekend and it’s not going too well so far. Thanks!
I'm in a bad mood.
So I’ve been sitting here doing homework for like 6 hours and not talking to anyone. Twenty more pages and I’ll have finished all my assignments for the week.
I should be in a bad mood more often.

Well that’s a little embarrassing.

Law school party in the woods tonight. Bonfire, kegs, absurd amounts of alcohol, debauchery all around.
Should be a good time.

Uh, ok.

Ugh, that sounds like such a long time. Don’t know if I can make it …

Woke up with a cold.
Apparently my body did not have as much fun this weekend as I did. But seriously, wtf? I never get sick and I was sick pretty much all break, and now this? I have stuff to do, I don’t really have time to be all sniffly and gross.
Side note: Took some Dayquil which made me pass out for a bit (I know, it works opposite on me - Nyquil keeps me awake) and I had crazy dreams. In one, my computer...
vinh replied to your post:Is there anything better than Arrested Development on Netflix Instant Watch?
Shouldn’t you be asleep?
Sunday Funday, duh. Isn’t that what no school on MLK Day is for?
Is there anything better than Arrested Development...
Nope, I don’t think so.
Apparently FSU beat Duke?
At basketball? And that’s a big deal?
I was supposed to go but a) the game started at 9pm and b) I don’t like basketball. But everyone here is really excited. Woooo …
percepto asked: Watching that Gilmour vid reminded me that I used to keep a scrapbook of hockey clippings from the paper. Hey, I grew up in the middle of nowhere, so sue me. ANYWAY, I was never really a Gilmour fan in that I wasn't a Leafs fan, but when he got traded to the Devils I remember it being a huge deal so I cut out the article and I know it's in there. And I know I still have that scrapbook...

Shawn provides the best brief overview I have seen of today’s Verizon iPhone announcement. I see lots of people getting all jazzed up about the “mobile hot spot” feature but here is an important note:
And while the mobile hotspot is a great feature, on Verizon’s CDMA network you can’t use data and voice simultaneously. If you’re broadcasting an internet connection with your Verizon...

percepto asked: I didn't know you drove a Prius! I have questions! Actually, mostly one: do you really like it? I mean, aside from the environmental/cost factors, is it a good car to drive?

First Day of Classes ...
I only have one class, and it starts at 11 … but I’m going to school early so I can read in the library. I know, so responsible.
(this post was hard to write because my “r” key is kind of broken)
Tally tomorrow!
Planning on getting back around 4pm so I can get organized and figure out what all I need to do before classes start Monday. Not planning on going out, but we’ll see if that happens. It’s been a nice break at home with the family, but I’m ready to have a social life again!
