I'm sure it's been discussed, but is that Jinger like Ginger with a J? Or Jinger like jing-er rhymes with linger? Because I can only read it as Jing-er. And I hate it.

Someone here has incredibly smelly lunch today. I got new glasses yesterday and currently have the "adjusting to a new prescription" headache. Someone hit my car and ran off without a note so now I have to pay my deductible to get it fixed. Oh, and I went to Home Depot this weekend. Just in time for someone to steal…

I just got The Silkworm, the next in the series by JK Rowling's/Robert Galbraith. I read The Cuckoo's Calling on vacation last month and was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I know there are a lot of folks who don't like her writing, but I think she's very good at creating likable characters, and I really like her…

I'm going to see it this weekend. I don't care if no one wants to go with. I've been dying to see it, and someone pulled a hit and run on my car this weekend, so I deserve something nice for myself. It's decided.

I went ten or so years ago. Definitely creepy. I love cemeteries but mausoleums freak me out and this reminded me of them, very unnerving.

I did actually get a letter a week or so after graduation saying I was one credit short of graduating. After freaking out and trying to figure out how to hide it from my parents, I called the University — apparently one course I took was for 3 hours, but I filled out paperwork to increase it to 4. The professor was…

My crazy great aunt has a strobe light in her attic that I have had to replace the batteries in because it's on all the time "to keep the squirrels away." But I think it's for their rave. Maybe get one of those?

I'll watch a few, dread watching a few more, then grudgingly/angrily catch up to the final two or three on dvr.

I survived family vacation, and my return to work isn't nearly as terrible as I thought it would be! Plus, I missed what was apparently the shittiest week of work ever, and didn't get in trouble for being out. I read five books on vacation, and have been generally reading a lot more, which means I am in a mentally…

That song comes up on shuffle far more often than I should probably admit, and I pretty much always listen the whole way through. "This whole premise is sweaty!"

I haven't seen any national news, so I don't know how they're covering it.

Leaving for vacation tomorrow as soon as I get out of a meeting. I am in St. Louis, which, if you've seen any of the news lately, is pretty much chaos right now. I am so glad to be getting out of here for a while.

Ha! Mine eats cheez-its by the pile multiple times daily, but it's like she's in a cheez-it eating contest and she inhales them so quickly she chokes on every single bite.

There are pheromone collars too. My boss swears by them for her slightly crazed (now 50% less) boy cat.

My left handed grandma taught me, her equally left handed granddaughter to knit right handed. I am a terrible knitter. I want to learn to crochet though. It seems more forgiving maybe?
I've made myself a couple of front door wreaths from Pinterest ideas, and am currently working with Mod Podge Mod Melts on some…

I have a fully formed, fully orange pumpkin. Not a pie or sugar pumpkin either, it was grown from a tossed jack-o-lantern pumpkin last fall. What does one do with a pumpkin in August?

I knew him through friends in high school and he was really good at scaring the crap out of people at parties with card tricks. I mean, a bunch of semi-drunk high schoolers in the late 90s wasn't the highest of bars, but even then I remember feeling like he was more talented than his surroundings would have suggested.

Ugh. I had that happen one time and it was awful. It was like half of my brain was fully aware that everything was ok and I was just napping on the couch and having sleep paralysis. But the other half was convinced that there was someone sitting on the couch with me stroking my hair. And none of me could move.

I don't know if it's the teeth or the lips or the weird Voldemortesque nose slits. I am really off put by the whole facial setup below the eyes.
