Would you generally rather be overdressed or underdressed at a party? I'm not typically one who likes to get dressed up. I had enough of that during my years as a bank teller. So I guess I'd rather be underdressed. Although, I suppose if I show up in jeans and a t-shirt to a party … Continue reading Question of the Week #194

Splitting the Check
All right kids, help me out with this. What's the norm? When you go to a restaurant with a big group of people, do you tell your server that you're on individual checks or do you let the restaurant just divide the check up evenly, no matter what everyone gets? Personally, I've only ever experienced … Continue reading Splitting the Check
Question of the Week #108
You are invited to a party that will be attended by many fascinating people you've never met. Would you want to go if you had to go by yourself? A social butterfly like me? No, probably not. Wait, how fascinating are we talking? Is it, like, a list of every person I've ever thought would … Continue reading Question of the Week #108
A Social Media Rant
Maybe it's something in the water. Over the last few days, I've been reading some pretty good rants on several blogs I follow. There's nothing wrong with a good rant every now and then. I enjoy having a rant from time to time. This is gonna be one of them. This rant is inspired by … Continue reading A Social Media Rant

I'm here … Continue reading How To Be Perpetually Early
Being Followed
I like Twitter. I mean, it's all right. It's not likely to go away anytime soon, so I'm willing to utilize it. I can't sit here and say I enjoy being limited to 140 characters. Sometimes I have more to say than Twitter allows. Hence, the blog. Anyway, I've never put much stock into how … Continue reading Being Followed
How I Quit My Job
Kids, I've made it no secret that I've been looking for a new job for several months. Almost a year, really. Well, I guess I've made it no secret on this blog and to my close friends and family. It's not as if I've going to my supervisor and shouting, "I need a new job!" … Continue reading How I Quit My Job
Now Trending
There's a trend on Facebook. Well, I don't know that you can call it a trend when it's been going on for years. But it's a trend that I find slightly annoying. And it's entirely possible that I'm the only one it annoys because I think I'm the only one who hasn't jumped on the … Continue reading Now Trending
Day Twenty Six
My Week, In Great Detail This will just be a typical week. Not a specific week that was. Granted, there's not really such a thing as typical. But I'll give it a shot. And it won't be as detailed as the incredibly boring day I described in yesterday's post. Sunday-- When you're on staff with … Continue reading Day Twenty Six
