Busy

Work has been crazy busy. The marketing team is being swamped with RFPs and we’re all going flat out to help, in addition to our normal work and the big projects we’re already working on. It’s a tad hectic, but it feels good to be busy because we’re doing something right instead of screwing something [...]

10 Idol Thoughts

…and then some. No Doubt and their inspirations should make for a fun night with lots of up-tempo performances. Gwen Stefani is adorable as always, pimping her new album, which I like. Again, LaKisha is in a dress I love. Totally fun song too. I hate to say it, but Chris Sligh just doesn’t have [...]

Shelf Life

How old is that jar of pickles in the back of your fridge? Can you still eat that salsa you opened in February? Real Simple has given us the answer to these and other very important shelf life questions. This should be required reading for all adults, especially those who tend to forget things in [...]

Help a Brother Out

This is Kolby. My mom calls him my brother, but I’m not sure I see a resemblance. In this photo he’s strutting his stuff in mom’s letter sweater. The photo is part of the Wheaton’s In Need Parade and Kolby needs your vote! The pups with the highest number of votes get to go in [...]

Pancakes!

Tomorrow I get pancakes. I’m practically drooling right now in anticipation and I have almost 24 hours to wait. We’re making our annual trip to Parker’s Maple Barn with Jon’s family tomorrow morning. They make all of their own maple syrup on site. Add it to freshly made buckwheat, pumpkin, banana pecan, or blueberry buckwheat [...]

Supposed to be Spring

According to my calendar, it’s officially Spring today. To celebrate, Dunkin’ Donuts is offering free iced coffees. So why is it that it’s freaking freezing outside? I had to forego the iced coffee and actually pay for a hot one. How un-spring-like.

11 Idol Thoughts

Haley is going to fall out of some part of her outfit before the night is over. Be it her blouse, her short shorts, or her shoes, she’s gonna have trouble keeping it all in. Chris’s a cappella version of Don’t Let the Sun has very much redeemed him in my mind. Is it wrong [...]

Sinking Feeling

I just found out that I have been trying to solve the unsolvable for weeks. I’ve been getting nowhere really quickly and now I know why. I simply can’t force a product to do something it isn’t capable of doing.

Hacked

My ebay account was hijacked this weekend. Luckily (or not, depending on your view) it was a system-wide problem, so it was caught right away. In the meantime my account is in limbo of sorts until I can get it “restored.” The primary method seems to be calling the phone number listed in your account, [...]

For Your Information

You know it’s been a long day when you misspell FYI…
