Wishin’ and hopin’
OK, if Lynsi gets to do a wish list and Kaci gets to have an internet, I want both or I”m pouting. My April middle-class wish list doesn’t count.
My BIGGEST wish is to get my wisdom teeth out. They. Hurt. All. The. Time. Even though my teeth are a little yellow, they are rather straight [...]

MySpace is so high right now
Dear MySpace,
I admit, you’ve come a long way. You help me keep in touch without also opening my private life to every pervert in the world. However, your “networking” feature is a little out-of-touch. Didn’t you get the memo that we’re all recessionistas now?

Why I Love The Daily Evergreen
Workin’ at the EG today trying to make my way through my to-do list. Managed to spot this section editor’s note in someone’s story.

It ain’t always really clear
Because I’m hungover from The ZZU last night and have a dozen million things I need to do before I leave for Spokane tom.
(Speaking of which, there was a girl there who I wrote a GIANT mix doubletruck story on two years ago, and she NEVER ever said anything about it to me. Which means [...]

Smokin’ in the girls room

Except for a pull or two at a party, I haven’t been smoking. No little pack [...]

Nerd alert
I was writing up a bday card for my nephew Nicholas who turns 10 on Saturday. However, I gave it a cursory second glance and noticed I did something very nerdy.
Can you spot the reason why I should never be allowed to copyedit kids’ cards? He’ll probs be confused about punctuation for life now.

This is why people hate me
THIS is the song that’s been stuck in my head for the last few days. Poor SO has to listen to me sing it all day. The best part is the breakdown.

Delaney and I are silly beans in Kelsie’s bathroom.
Though this picture is probs circa 2005, notice that I’m dressed like it’s 1975. Go grunge. This makes me want to grow my hair out.

Listen, listen y’all.
In about two months is the annual Eastern Washington high school journalism convention at WSU Tri-Cities in Richland. The exact date is Sept. 25. I attended this conference in 2005 and 2006, and I thought it was so cool. Even back then, the Evergreen made an impression on me.
Last year, I presented on [...]
