Well it looks like this is my first post since last year, so happy 2009! And MLK Day! And Valentine's Day! And President's Day!
So let's see what's been happening.
1. I still hate my job. But lately I've been making some proactive moves and hoping they work out for the best.
2. Winter is STILL here!! Are you kidding me?
3. Chris Brown is a woman-beater. And that Rihanna photo is not that bad. She would look like that if she went to sleep with mad chapped lips and you caught her and took a really close shot. Yeah, I said it.
4. Barack Obama is President! Here's a lovely little collection of quotes from his memoir, Dreams of My Father, including "you ain't my bitch, nigga!"
5. Michelle Obama is on the March issue of Vogue, looking great. She's only the second first lady to be on the cover. (The first? HRC...sssss!)
6. I saw my brother perform with his little band at a concert thingy the other week and was way more impressed than I thought I'd be.
7. I got yelled at this past weekend. That hasn't happened to me in a while and I must say, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
8. Spring is almost here. Anyone taking any fun trips? Or is everyone too poor at the moment? Speaking of which...
9. The economy still really sucks. It hasn't hit me directly and I'm hoping that it continues to stay the hell away from me.
10. Chimpanzees KILL people!! Seriously. And what's up with that Indian guy in the lottery commercial saying, "orangootang" in the thickest Bombay back alley accent I've ever heard?
11. Ginger snaps from Whole Foods are the most delicious little delights ever. They're heart-shaped and full of ginger love.
12. This post is dedicated to Dmitry, Chris and Eleonore who, in their own ways, pushed me to write on this thing again.
13. Follow me on Twitter! I hated it at first but I'm now discovering its virtues. Try it.
14. Still reading "The Moor's Last Sigh," but almost done. Salman Rushdie is a genius and I'm so jealous of his ability to write like he's spinning some entirely different material out of language. Next is "The Reader." Everyone is saying the movie sucked but I quite liked it. Any suggestions for a good (great) book when that's done?
15. I'm blogging again!(?) Maybe. We'll see.

Spring Break road trip is my thing right now....
Also, Orangootang has been funny only to me thus far, so thank you for acknowledging it.
You are back!!!! Welcome, back
I saw the Reader and I thought it was quite good; probably one of the best movies I've seen this year.
The guy with the thickest Bombay back alley accent is HILARIOUS (the commercial just came on as I was commenting, hahaha)...I feel validated
I thought about doing Las Vegas for spring break my this little lady has diminished funds
And finally Barack is STILL awesome, I thought his awesomeness would diminish with him becoming a president but I'm glad I was wrong
hilarious and well done.
welcome back :)
I'm trying to go somewhere, too. F*ck the recession. I need a vacation.
