Oh keh. Am searching desperately for a new bathing suit since we’re going to Miami this summer. Miami = beach = hot and sunny = need bathing suit that nothing pops out of. Maybe I should say a bathing suit instead of a “new” one, since I don’t even know if I have one (that’s how sad it is in [...]
Inspiration from politics. SO rare.
At first I was a little scientologist-creeped-out by these videos, but the longer it went on the funnier it got. What’s scary, I guess, is that people get sucked in by this stuff. Oh yeah, and dang, dude, you live in AMERICA…why couldn’t you have found out about Jesus yrself, eh? Guilt-marketing works so well in America.
Thursday, August 30, 2007, I came home from work, and that day she didn’t even get up. For a week she hadn’t eaten much, and was getting weaker by the day. Her head wobbled when she sat still, and when she walked, sometimes she fell down. Sometimes she fell in her food, pathetically attempting to eat, and failing miserably at [...]

Don’t put ads on your videos, or run prerolls. Is the company that hard up for cash? This is the turning point where users of the site are slapped in the face with the fact that the site is for-profit, not for fun. They’ll realize that there’s a man behind the curtain and that he’s pulling the strings, that we’re [...]
Got my CDs today, four Stanley Huang CDs and a Wang Lee Hom CD. Yay new music!!! I’m hard-pressed to go to class tonight what with all I want to do with these CDs. It seems the trains are set to be an interesting experience for me. I guess God thought in my lovely car I was lonely, so going [...]
Check out this article on Time’s website. Read at the very last line. Now. I am not even going to get into my opinions on what the article is about. Ridiculous Californians, legislating something as obviously unenforceable as this. And I believe in spanking to a point. But I have seen spanking that wasn’t spanking, and there’s a fine line. [...]
In class Saturday the professor had all of us introduce ourselves (groan) and say where we’d come from, why we’re taking the class, and something unique about ourselves. I always feel like a dip when I say “Oh, yea, and I speak Chinese” which seems just so self-absorbed. My Chinese isn’t stellar anyway, so making that claim isn’t the most [...]
I’ve been sucked in to My Space, kicking and screaming. But now that I’m here, it’s not so bad. I actually kind of like it. We’ll see what happens. Found a new Chinese singer to idolize, Stanley Huang. Some of his videos I found on You Tube: Another day of ice, and as I was leaving for work this morning, [...]
Of course. If you know anything about Chinese society, this is obvious. Always good to have the obvious backed up by empirical data, though… Chinese Users are more Private online, finds Research
This just in: My husband is on kittenwar.com right now voting for the not-so-cute kittens to up their percentages. I am so lucky.
I am having fun on kittenwar.com, but there is a link on this page that I can’t bear to click. Losingest Kittens. Kitten war is a digital cuteness selection war between kittens. You click on the cutest kitten, or if you can’t decide who’s snorgliest, you can hit the refresh button. Then more kittens pop up and you choose the [...]
Ok, well, I got word that I got the job I was interviewing for last time. Whew. I am so excited to start working at a full time job with benefits and an office and a bathroom and…well, it will be a big change for me. My students have been shocked and unhappy about my change in schedule, most being [...]
Yesterday was about 80 degrees. Today is in the 20s. That’s weather in Texas. What is cool, though, is the way the local media makes it into a major event. “Arctic Blast”…”Blizzard Blast”…”Bitter Blast” This is how “snow” looks in Texas, ok. My grandmother has had feet of snow in Pennsylvania already, but Texans freak out over this. Ya know [...]
I interviewed for a job recently, and this is the first time I was ever myself in the interview. I don’t know if I will get it (I think I am perfect for the position), but I have a 33% chance of getting it, statistically. Who knows. Interviews are the worst. You have to be yourself, though, I guess. I [...]
