Tumbling this so I have a bookmark of it. I did this a few months ago and the stream URL was good up until a few days ago when it just stopped working (kept saying [Error syncing to stream]). All I had to do was recreate the session and it’s working again.

Survival of the Crappiest
Every week, our office manager fills up the candy jar in the kitchen with an assortment of Hershey’s miniatures. My preference, in order of greatest to least, is as follows: Hershey’s Special Dark, Hershey’s Milk, Mr. Goodbar, Hershey’s Krackle. It’s now Friday and all that’s left in the jar is 10 pieces of Krackle. I guess I’m not the only one in the...

“I found my son’s skates this morning. How hard can it be to find Bin Laden?” - Ice President AKA Head of Skate rickyv: After hearing Matt Damon’s brilliant comparison of a Sarah Palin presidency to a bad Disney movie, I called up Sam and said “Let’s make a trailer for what that movie would look like.” Within hours, Dan and Amir were writing it, Ben and the CHTV crew were...

Harsh? Maybe. 30 Minutes late to work? Yes.
If you’re going to do something moronic like get into a fender bender on the freeway during morning rush hour, can you at least have the decency to do it on a stretch of road that has a shoulder you can pull off on?

– Pete gives the best idealistic advice, bar none. I think I could fill an entire Tumblr with Peteisms and they would all make you feel shitty about yourself for not grabbing life by the horns … or boobs, for that matter.

In June, I posted an old diary entry and followed it up a few days later by asking if anyone would be interested in a public Tumblr group for that kind of thing. Nobody really showed any interest, so I’m posting this here. I found it tucked into the pages of an old diary; it’s a poem that a guy I dated briefly in college wrote for/about me: “Marcela” A flock of sparrows...

I swear I used to be a feminist.
I’d like to take some time to thank my boobs and vag as they are the obvious reason I’ve been excluded from the arduous task of helping my co-worker switch offices.

Poehler Leaves Saturday Night Live →
I’ve got mixed feelings about this. I’ve loved Amy Poehler since the first episode of UCB aired on Comedy Central and I only want good things for her. Even though SNL has been floundering for the past decade, it’s a staple. It’s solid and it’s not going anywhere (I’m almost banking on these words coming back to bite me). If this spin-off of The Office doesn’t take off, she might just end up fading...

I am kicking myself so hard right now for having no clue that Merlin was in town this weekend giving the keynote speech at IZEAFest. My anger is compounded by the fact that I did absolutely nothing of worth today (unless you count trying the new Volcano Taco from Taco Bell). merlin: Here’s some totally choppy video of a dude named “Marilyn,” talking about _How to Blog_. **Hint**: Van Hœt cameo...

Again, I feel no shame.
I just finished eating my lunch of Roast Chicken Cup Noodle and found a piece of noodle inside my sweater’s left sleeve. I eat with my right hand.

Not the least bit ashamed.
I went to the kitchen area to grab a roll of paper towels so I could clean out our popcorn machine and make a fresh batch. When I got there, I saw a container of chocolate chip cookies and abandoned my mission. Judge all you want; that cookie was fucking delicious.

I don’t believe in fate, kismet, or destiny. Nor do I believe in that ridiculous phrase “everything happens for a reason.” I do, however, believe in ridiculously bizarre coincidences. Here’s a great example: Our trip to Las Vegas began the day before we left Orlando with a visit to Target to pick up some last-minute necessities. I am quite the procrastinator and well...
