PHENOMENARGARET*
Whenever I am around puppies/see a puppy on TV/in person/on Facebook/YAAAAY PUPPIES! I tend to tell a story about those puppy(ies) immediately after to whoever will listen to me in a high-pitched & terrible fashion mostly because I tend to talk like a second grader. I love puppies!!!
*It’s a new thing I’m trying out. I’m going to tell you some CRAZY stuff about me! Get...

I have so many wonderful girl friends!
I am extremely grateful and egregiously lucky to have a veritable bevy, a gaggle of womenfolk in my life who (probably) like me and like hugging me and like talking and eating desserts together. I am just very glad that I know so many amazing people.

I am exhausted & need my external hard drive.
But it is all the way down the stairs & I’d have to unplug it and then lug it up here (it’s not that heavy, I just don’t want to bend down, whatever) and then I’d have to plug it in up here.
This is when wands would really come in helpful. I would just hella Accio External Hard Drive & everything would be wonderful.

DEALBREAKER: You Are The Panhandler Outside Of...
You are not very tall and yet you’re threatening! How is that possible? You have the gait of those beach birds who waddle into the wet sand and yet are scared by waves, basically what I am saying is that you weave around the parking lot with both speed & precision.
You wear a lot of cologne. We always wonder where you get the money for your copious application of cologne, and we...

3 Best Ways to Indicate Passing of Time on Any TV...
3. A CLASSIC: Days of the calendar flying off with no human interaction whatsoever.
2. Still skyline shot that shows the movement of clouds over a full day/sun rising or setting over a notable skyline.
1. A shot of a full pizza (“birds-eye-view”) going to a mostly eaten pizza, crusts akimbo.
Probably the most awkward part of filming on Top...

I would continuously make the “Hey, take care” face that I make sometimes at people when I know it is their last day at work/graduation/goodbye party and I don’t really know them that well so I probably won’t see them ever again but I...
RETROSPECTIVE: My other blog.
I have another blog. It’s not that hard to find, in fact, someone did. I like it a little better, it is a little more personal, a little more emotional and it is me falling a little in love.
I wrote some excellent things when I wasn’t worried about having readers. I feel only okay about having an audience. I thought that I was writing for me when I started this one, but...
