Brought to You by Parking Lots and Free Wireless

Hello again, friends!  Things have gotten away from me yet again, and I have yet to call the Comcast people to come install internet and cable in my cute little apartment.  I promise it’ll happen soon.  It has to; I’m kind of over this whole checking my e-mail from a parking lot business.  The practical [...]

Happy Birthday, America!

Does anyone else think America looks pretty darn good for 233?
In honor of America’s birthday, I’m heading to the Bluff City.  I may be moving closer to George Washington’s home than Elvis’s, but darn it, I’m going to fit in all the Memphis I can before Tennessee and I are temporarily separated.

I Hope I’m Not the Only One to Feel This Way

I just logged onto Facebook to check my messages and such, and one of my notifications said, “[Friend] has made a profile for [her daughter] on Circle of Moms!”  This announcement was complete with a link to write on her baby’s wall.
Is that weird to anyone else?
PS:  I also think it’s weird when people make [...]
