Fuck Cancer
pocketcontents:
It doesn’t look like Bob will be coming home from the hospital. The cancer is doing too much damage to his lung and stressing his heart. We’ve been asked to make our wishes known about life support. I want to crawl in a hole and make it all disappear.
I am so, so very sorry.

Whenever I hear The Barenaked Ladies’ song, If I Had $1,000,000, I wonder if that much money would allow them to purchase all the things they mention. I mean, a million dollars isn’t as much as it used to be, right? Would buying all that stuff leave them penniless, or…
Heh. Awesome.

Science Says High-Fructose Corn Syrup Is Pretty Much The Worst Thing Ever
In addition to causing significant weight gain in lab animals, long-term consumption of high-fructose corn syrup also led to abnormal increases in body fat, especially in the abdomen, and a rise in circulating blood fats called triglycerides. The...
Seriously now...
I’m supposed to be looking for an amazing resume to show my boss for a receptionist position at my lame office job (I know, I make it sound appealing, right?) Anyway, it’s a job. With benefits and everything. So if you know anyone amazing who lives in LA who would want to work with me (and would swear never ever ever to mention this tumblr in the office) then find me at the gmail. ...

At age 25, Jim makes $100,000 a year. He’s constantly traveling for business. He has a large home in which he often doesn’t visit some rooms for months at a time. He eats out every single night. He drives a leased Lexus, which he updates every few years at the end of the lease. He buys a whole new…
I love this.

Poll at FOXNews.com
President Obama called the House passage of a health care reform bill a “victory for the American people.” Do you agree?
Do your thing, folks.

AND JUST LIKE THAT ALL THAT FUCKING WORK GOES FOR NOTHING.
Sigh. Doesn’t anyone follow through with their promises anymore?
OH CRAP!
I have to go move the cars for street cleaning tomorrow (both of them since the boyfriend is out of town) and I’m already in my pajamas…
I guess the neighbors are getting a show tonight!
Who me? Procrastinate? Never...
Let’s just not think about the fact that I just did an entire week’s worth of accounting homework in just under three hours. What? It’s not due until 11 pm. I have like an hour and a half to spare!
Oh, who am I kidding. That was cutting it a little too close. I’ll try not to procrastinate so much next time!
Yes!!!!
I’m so excited and happy that the health care bill passed!!!!
I just had to go to four newspaper boxes to find a Sunday paper - I think that’s a new record!

I’ve been less than consistent with my posting lately. You see, I’m suddenly really busy, and I love that. The thing is, I don’t want to abandon that which helped me cope with the not so busy times in my past (and I’m sure that this business will not last forever) so here’s what’s going on with me:
Last weekend my parents came to visit for the first time...
It has come to my attention that I don't have a...

CASTING CALL.
Am I too late???
There was an earthquake this morning and I slept through it! I’m so disappointed!
The parents are coming to visit for the weekend…so I’ve got about twenty minutes to clean the apartment and make it look like I don’t live like a teenager any more.
WHY AM I SITTING HERE TYPING THIS WHEN I SHOULD BE CLEANING???
Oh, and I’m surrounded by a band called Scatterheart (from Canada). Woo.
Just got to SeaTac airport - ready to head home…and it’s oddly empty. It’s kind of freaky!
FYI : I am prone to hyperbole.
The best part about hanging out at the bar you used to work at? (besides the free drinks)
Hearing the music that I put on their computer come up on the playlist. :)
I know I’ve had too many beers when I’m using the tiles in the floor to decide if I’m walking in a straight line.
Today I’ve had four beers and a cup of coffee. Watch out world!!!!
I'm not 'that girl' very often...
But I just totally almost missed my plane because I was hanging out in the bar.
Oops!

Twitter: The Criterion Collection
What if Twitter… came to life?
We asked some of our friends to film their favorite tweets. We didn’t care how they did it. They could read it. They could act it. They could do it with puppets. Whatever they wanted. The only rules were it had to be a tweet written by someone else and it had to contain the entire tweet and nothing...

– I’m so being punished for trying to get my work done early this week!! ARGH!
You see, I’m going to Seattle in the morning for a little visit - and the LAST thing I want to do is take a stupid accounting test while I’m there. Sigh. I guess I get to get up super early tomorrow to...

Can Walmart really go up against Whole Foods? Long the bane of enlightened consumers, Walmart has been experimenting with local and organic meats and produce. The Atlantic decided to see how they fared against Whole Foods and the results are pretty interesting.
This is really fascinating, even if it is a little painful!
