@the susan: Good for you! I should do that next year. Where do you work that you get good tips Christmas morning?

@Ms Meghan is Reppin' the Triforce: Ok, I downloaded it but am totally at a loss as to how it works. I guess I'll click around. Thanks everyone!

I need a good photo program to edit pics. For free though... uhh? Suggestions?

@VisforVanity: I bought the album. Its incredible and recommended. I don't think of Erykah as just a singer. She is a lyricist, singer, rapper...spoken word artisit. But shes always been a head. When this video came out we got a taste of her skills if she...wanted to rap. Its one minute forty seconds in. …

@VisforVanity: Shes a hip hopper for sure.

The sad part is we can hear the whole truth if we'd look and listen. There are lots of ladies holding it down in the hip hop world. Desdamona, Rocky Rivera, Erykah Badu. Are they on the radio often? No. Are they telling stories and putting it out there? YES.

@SomeAuthorGirl: I feel you. See I was going to curl my hair earlier... out of bordem. But figured I'd better not waste my time... I won't catch any compliments because my cat can't really talk.

@jamsammy: Thats great! Squealing your way to sleep is the best.

@CallMeBirdy:

Just got back from my first OK Cupid coffee date. I was really nervous but it went well. I kept telling myself to calm down on the drive there... we are just two people having coffee. Hes really nice and we both seemed to have had a great time! I'm smiling!

@MemilyBimble: Oh yes. Thank your for this. I laughed my ass off. Have a *great* day.

This is adorable. Good for those Gummy Bears.

If people have the time and resources and nerve to get such a surgery I say good for them. I wonder what the recovery time is like? This all just leads to more consumerism really. Maybe Jimmy Choo will start offering specials on these surgeries. Actually maybe they should staff some surgeons...

@mizzmarvel: I know me too. Ugh, at my desk too. So sweet I could poo.

@singing_femmebot: My mother would probably say something like that. Infuriating. Also annoying when you are in the bathroom in a house and someone yells through the door and asks a question. Like my mother. "Honey did you want mashed potatoes or stuffing?" Ummm..can you wait two seconds until I'm done here. …

He looks like he wants to play footsie while he holds my hand.

Accentuate the positive... Eliminate the negative!!!

Funny somewhat related story. My best friend and I were waiting around at an UrgentCare Clinic because she got into a little fender bender. I was there for support as she was pretty shaken up. We had to wait forever so what do you do when there are empty walls and the only thing to read is a Women's Day magazine…

Last night me and my parents went to go see Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol. It was a really nice performance and got me excited for the upcoming holidays. I planned my trip to Chicago next weekend. I love daytripping there. In other news I may be addicted to my heating pad.
