The Tales of Beedle the Bard →
Aaaaah! So awesome.
sydvish:
J.K. Rowling is releasing her book, The Tales of Beedle the Bard, which contains the 5 wizarding tales Dumbledore left to Hermione in the last book! Of course I have to read it…
Ahhh, memories
Cleaning out my facebook profile; figured I’d put down some of the quotes here for posterity’s sake:
“There’s nothing sadder than a bunny that doesn’t f**k” - Roomie Pat “I lose my teeth while flossing, and guns scare me” - [identity revoked] “I’ve apparently been rufeed all afternoon, then” - Roomie Pat “That’s how you...

marry someone who makes you laugh every day.
it’s awesome
done. great advice.
It is on my list of requirements. Right at the top.
Honestly, I really only like to be around people who make me laugh everyday. Debbie Downers are NOT my thing.
It truly is good advice. Also a requirement.
Last night, in part of my dream, I was part of this day long booze party. A high class booze party, though, because I recall drinking Perrier Jouet Fleur de Champagne Rose. Out of the bottle (I like to keep things classy).
I find this amusing.
myliblog: Uncle Bobby's Wedding →
A letter from a librarian to a concerned patron.
Finally, then, I conclude that “Uncle Bobby’s Wedding” is a children’s book, appropriately categorized and shelved in our children’s picture book area. I fully appreciate that you, and some of your friends, strongly disagree with its viewpoint. But if the library is doing its job, there are lots of books in our collection that...
Summeh.
Next year I will plan out and go on a freaking summer vacation by myself. Just me and my dog.
Two years now and I have not had a single summer vacation that is memorable nor involves something that I love dearly: the water.
While I would prefer to vacation with people, it never seems to work out. My needs are really very few.
On a side note, I don’t know where I went wrong in life as to...

1. New news to me: Elephants do not get drunk on marula fruit.
2. New news: Malaysian pen-tailed tree shrews do.
Last night I put a treat in Amelie’s Kong. Treat in Kong > PB in Kong. Longer lasting distraction. About 3 hours worth, actually. PB in Kong is probably about 20 minutes of distraction.
Anybody know if it’s possible to tumble over SMS? That is the nice thing about Twitter.
Harrumph. I was importing my tweets here, but considering that over the past couple of days an entire days’ worth of tweets are imported at one time (as opposed to sporadic importation of tweets throughout the day), I’m stopping that little dealie.
So, yeah, if you’re at all interested: twitter.com/pink_squirrel
And I really enjoyed my special formatting for tweet posts, too....
Any will to work today has been completely sapped.
Nice thing is that today is going by pretty quickly.
So my thumb is all cut up. I think I know why, but, still, it’s annoying.
Today’s coffee is significantly better than yesterday’s. Used more sugar and less powdered “cream”.
I’m slightly annoyed. I don’t have milk, so possibilities of having crappy coffee, again, today, are high.
Man, I forgot to reset my alarm last night so I didn’t get into work as early as I wanted to :(

I’m seeing some of the best blog writing come out of Jezebel lately. This piece, especially, was really incredible.
Amazon's Universal Wish List →
Wow, this is pretty neat!
toldorknown:
Go to any online store, and when you see something you want, click the “Add to Wish List” button in your Bookmark Toolbar. Unless you need to quickly log in, that’s all it takes to add it to your Amazon Wish List.
I’ve seen at least one site dedicated to this sort of thing, but integration with my existing Amazon Wish List is so much cooler.

I like pink. I like squirrels. I like pink squirrels.
So many layers of meaning … it really does encompass my personality, though.

Oooo, amusing. (via Comics Curmudgeon)
Managed to get 3 out of the 4 remaining items at target.
Went to wal mart and found 1 out of 5 needed items. Wtf. Weren’t even uncommon.
“That’s what… this year?”

Holy cow this rocks my world.

“All procrastinators put off things they have to do. Structured procrastination is the art of making this bad trait work for you. The key idea is that procrastinating does not mean doing absolutely nothing.

The air in the office has an odd smell to it. Sorta giving me a headache.
Method of stay-awake doodling: draw random shape. Turn random shape into something. So far, today: dog, elf, bird, dog.
I canNOT stop yawning! Also trying to amuse myself via doodling.
My coffee tastes like crap today. Blaming the fact that I had to use powdered creamer instead of milk.
Nothing worse than being tired and starting your day with a bad cup of coffee. Had to throw the rest out.
So… it was definitely a red morning here. All you sailors better take warning.

So true. When my Sunday is good, the rest of the week will follow suit.
