Playing catch up
Last week, I was given access to a secret server at work that would make The Pirate Bay blush. Obviously, I ransacked it, and I now have the following to say:
RJD2 is the hotness and I am embarrassed that I didn’t know that until now.
Something's Coming

My mom just told me that she bought tickets for us to see West Side Story in a few weeks. This is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE SHOW EVER and I am SO EXCITED.
This totally makes up for the time she made me sit through Hairspray.
Time to brush up on your Espanol! You do know that all of the Sharks are going to speak (and sing) in Spanish all the time, except when they are talking to or...

Confidential to Reader Joe From Baltimore: The mere fact that you asked if you can pair socks with deck shoes means that you have no business ever actually wearing deck shoes. KatieBakes and I will be down in a jiffy to confiscate your Sperrys.
Socks are for plebians and job interviews.

She’s speaking for all of us
For some reason, my face did not enjoy the many beers and Red Bull I drank last night. Can’t imagine why.

“Caro, you should just stick to Jimmy Eat World.”
— I was told this last night after attempting to sing a Pretenders song. Boo!
“Don’t Get Me Wrong” is one of my favorite Pretenders songs, and I thought you did a lovely job.

Last Night A ShamWOW Saved My Life
fusioned:
Actually, Miss Miltner was kind enough to explain how the name ShamWow came about and the puns involved, etc. IT was an epic tale that I only remember half of. But it clears things up.
Something about Shamu maybe?
Ahem:
The real name of a ShamWOW is actually “chamois” (pronounced “sham-wahh” for those of you who hate the French). So the ShamWOW is both an...

I suggest everyone gets a job in college admissions. Seeing that someone failed Beginning Bowling is an EXTREME self-esteem boost.
I failed TWO gym classes in college. But I swear, I had really good reasons.
That just means you didn’t show up, right? As I recall, that’s the only way to fail a Columbia gym class.
No, the first class was Lifeguarding, and...

I had a dream last night that I was driving by Alec Baldwin, who was driving a red convertible. I was in the back seat, and I scribbled “YOU ARE A LION! TAKE WHAT’S YOURS!” on a scrap of paper and held it up to the window. He cackled and said “I WIIIIIILLLL!!” before speeding off, hair blowing in the wind.

Super annoying daily affirmation.
feistyred:
I think 6 am may be my favorite time to go to the gym, because everyone else there looks just as annoyed as you feel. Also its pretty cool to see the sun come up in the mirror in the bike room. Then you walk home with your first coffee of the day in the post dawn glaze.
I am really trying this whole lifestyle, it is so fucking hard. Honestly, I like to remind myself that somewhere...

“the better the culture, the less employees will think about pay”
— Listening to management webinar- this is one of the “ten commandments”. Thoughts? As a nonprofit employee, I don’t think about pay because I feel that I am being adequately compensated by industry standards. HOWEVER, I seriously have no idea what this guy is prattling on about. I HATE management...
You know what movie really sucks?
frangry:
Must Love Dogs. I mean, fucking terrible. Jesus, shoot me.
Yesterday, Grand Central Terminal.
Mom: I think you would LOVE Must Love Dogs.
Me: I don’t think I would.
Mom: Oh, I do.
Me: No.
Mom: Stockard Channing does NOT look 61. But then again, she’s had work done.
I am thoroughly impressed with everyone who went all-in last night after such an event-filled, exhausting week. I was in bed at 9 pm. I think I might be too weak for the internet.

Screenplay idea: take what Scary Movie did with the horror genre and apply it to the chick flick. What would that look like?
I think it would look like this promo video that Bradley Cooper, Kevin Connolly, and Justin Long did for “He’s Just Not That Into You”.
